Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1285



Furious, he stormed over to the liquor cabinet and grabbed a bottle of red wine. He sat alone at the low table, drinking in silence.

Melvin Winson couldn’t understand why these people were constantly scheming and plotting every day, but he knew that he was exhausted. Meanwhile, on the other side.

Veronica Murphy lay in bed, waking up after Matthew Kings had left. Sitting in the room, she recalled everything that had happened throughout the day, feeling worried.

Initially, Ben had intended to call Colt Mullen to inquire about the situation, but then she remembered that her phone was still on the set.

Helpless, she could only freshen up and put on a bathrobe before going to sleep. However, she ended up developing a high fever in the middle of the night.

Matthew Kings had been busy outside until late at night. When he returned to the room, he found Little Roni lying in bed, softly groaning with a bright red face. He walked over and touched her forehead, feeling the scorching heat.

He immediately rushed Veronica Murphy to the hospital.

After a thorough examination, the doctor concluded that she had developed a high fever from being soaked in cold water.

The next day. Veronica Murphy woke up and, as soon as she opened her eyes, she found herself lying in a hospital bed with an IV drip hanging beside her.

“Are you awake?”

Matthew Kings saw her wake up and gently asked, “How are you feeling? Do you have any discomfort?”

“Why am I here?”

Veronica Murphy weakly inquired. She had a high fever all night, and now she felt weak all over, with a pale complexion and dry lips. She was feeling a bit thirsty.

“You had a high fever last night, 41 degrees.” Matthew Kings shook his head, still clearly shaken by Veronica Murphy’s condition.

Fortunately, he had rushed back immediately after finishing his tasks yesterday. If he hadn’t come back in time, who knows what accidents might have occurred.

“Maybe I fell into the water yesterday.” Veronica Murphy weakly smiled, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Veronica Murphy propped herself up on the bed, wanting to sit up, but it was a bit inconvenient with one hand still attached to the IV drip. Matthew Kings immediately stepped forward to help her up. “The doctor said you need to rest lying down.”

“If I lie down for too long, my back will hurt.”

Seeing him holding a pillow to support her back, Veronica Murphy leaned against the pillow and smiled at him, “Matt, it’s so nice to have you.”

With him around, it inexplicably made people feel very reassured.

“Here, your phone. Blue Shu sent it over early in the morning.” Matthew Kings handed the phone to Veronica Murphy.

Veronica Murphy took the phone and opened it, seeing many missed calls, WhatsApp messages, and texts. However, looking at the red notification badges on the apps, she knew that Matthew Kings hadn’t checked her phone.

He gave her a great deal of space and privacy. In fact, it was his way of showing respect to her. “I have prepared some nutritious porridge for you. Have some porridge first.”

Matthew Kings opened the insulated container on the table and brought out the steaming porridge. “Fresh shrimp porridge, delivered by One Piece Restaurant.”

One Piece Restaurant is a chain. They have it in Bloomstead, and of course, in Lothen as well. Veronica Murphy put down her phone and watched as Matthew Kings pushed the bedside table towards her. She sat there, enjoying the feeling of being taken care of.

A bowl of porridge was placed on the table. Matthew Kings stirred the porridge with a spoon, occasionally blowing on it to cool it down. He took a spoonful and tested the temperature for her. “Not too hot.”

He reached out and brought the porridge to her lips. Veronica Murphy’s eyes glistened with moisture as she curved them into a crescent shape, giving a faint smile. She lowered her head and took a sip of the porridge, savoring it slowly. “The taste is good. It’s almost as good as what you make.”

“I learned from One Piece Restaurant.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

“No wonder it tastes so similar,” Veronica Murphy nodded in realization. He lovingly fed Veronica Murphy with the porridge, and she obediently opened her mouth to eat, enjoying the blissful moment of being taken care of.

After finishing half of the porridge, she felt full. “You should have some too. I’m full.”

Having had a high fever all night, her body felt weak, and she had little appetite for food.
