EX-husband Groveling to Me

Chapter 152 No One Cares When He Is Sick

Austin heard her words and looked up at her, "I don't know."

He said, coughing twice, with the slightly pale face, he looked haggard.

Tsk, it was pathetic.

Suny raised her eyebrows slightly and remembered about the thermometer, "The temperature is

taken."

Austin also seemed to have just remembered and took out the thermometer from under his armpit and

handed it directly to her.

Suny didn't actually intend to read it, but as he handed it over, she had to take it.

The glass tube still carried Austin's body temperature and was somewhat hot, Suny frowned slightly,

looking up to see where the mercury was pointing, "39.6."

Austin raised his hand and touched his forehead, "Hmm."

He had a fever with him when he went out, and it was common for it to reach 39.6 now.

Suny put the thermometer away and gave him a faint look, "You should go to the hospital."

"I don’t want to."

He looked up at her, inexplicably stubborn.

Suny was amused, "It is up to you."

He was in his thirties, but he was still acting like a child when he was sick.

"Have your porridge."

Saying that, Suny took his phone, "Lend me your phone."

Austin watched her walk away with the phone, but did not drink the porridge.

He knew what Suny was doing with his phone. She had blocked out all of his and Elijah's numbers, so

she was most likely to call Elijah and ask him to come and pick him up.

Austin did guess correctly, Suny took his phone and called Elijah directly.

She remembered the number and dialed it straight away without even looking through the contacts.

Elijah was quick to answer, "Austin?"

"It's me, Mr. Brooks."

Hearing Suny's voice, Elijah hurriedly told the person beside him to shut his mouth, "Suny, how come

it's you? Where is Austin? He wouldn't have fainted from illness, would he?"

"39.6, if you don’t come, I'll have to call the hospital."

"Hey, it's not a big deal, he's in good health, this fever is nothing. You're nice, just give him a place to

sleep, he'll wake up the next day refreshed!"

Suny couldn't help but let out a soft tsk, "So you won’t come to pick him up?"

"I got occupied, so please take care of him for one night. Don't worry, I'll be there early the next

morning to pick her up! I'm a bit busy, bye!"

With that, Elijah directly cut off the call.

Anyway, he would not come to pick up Austin today, and if he had a fever, so be it, he could not die of it

anyway.

Suny looked at the "call ended" on her phone screen and couldn't help but look back at Austin on the

sofa.

He was quite pity, he was so sick and no one cared about him.

But she was not a saint, and she was already kind enough to let him into her house.

Suny handed the phone back to Austin: "Elijah is not coming to pick you up."

Austin frowned slightly, "I'll leave in a while."

"Okay."

Suny answered and went straight upstairs.

Austin was left alone in the large living room on the second floor, and he looked at the direction Suny

had disappeared for a long time before pulling the corner of his lips in mockery.

He knew that she would not care for him.

When Elijah hung up the phone, a man beside him asked in surprise, "Elijah, you're really not going to

pick up Austin?"

Elijah looked askance at the man, "What do you know? I'm creating opportunities for Austin! Otherwise,

he would probably be alone when Suny's children and grandchildren are all over the place."

With that, he paused and touched the mahjong: "Come on, come on, whose turn?"

It was a particularly good night to sleep in the rain, but tonight was an exception.

Probably because there was someone downstairs, Suny lay in bed but was unable to sleep.

It'd been more than two hours since she came up, and she didn't know if Austin has left or not. If he

hadn't, the fever would reach almost 40 degrees, and if he lied on her sofa like that, so he might be

burnt to retardation.

Suny felt that she still couldn't accept Austin turning into a retard, after tossing and turning, she sat up

from the bed, "M, turn on the light."

The bright lights were on and the whole room was instantly as bright as day.

Suny grabbed a jumper and put it on and went back downstairs.

The large living room was silent, and if she hadn't walked over to the sofa, she would have thought

Austin had gone.

The porridge on the table was still covered with its box, and it was not clear whether Austin had drunk it

or not.

He was leaning back on the sofa at the moment, his eyes tightly closed, seemingly asleep.

His face was blushed at this moment.

Suny frowned and raised her hand to touch his forehead.

It was hot and as she was to take back her hand, the drowsy Austin suddenly got her hand.

He gripped it hard and his palm was amazingly hot.

Suny tried to draw her hand back, but found that she could not.

"Austin?"

She frowned slightly and opened her mouth to call out to him.

Austin still didn't wake up, only both eyebrows furrowed and his dry thin lips moved slightly.

He seemed to be talking, but Suny couldn't hear what he was saying.

"Austin?"

She called out to him again, but this time, as soon as the words left her mouth, the hand that was

holding her suddenly pulled hard. Suny was caught off guard, and her whole body fell into his arms.

His whole body was as hot as a furnace, and Suny rose slightly with her other hand against his chest,

to pull away from him, but she clearly heard his whispered words, "Don't leave me, Suny."

Hearing his words clearly, Suny was slightly stunned for a moment.

But she quickly came to her senses and jerked hard, pulling her hand out, then she got up from his

body and backed away from him, "Austin, wake up!"

He still did not wake up. Suny turned into the bathroom, took a towel and dipped it in cold water and

placed it on top of his forehead.

Suny then found fever-reducing medicine, but Austin was unconscious and the fever-reducing medicine

was not easy to feed in.

Suny stood by the side for a few seconds, thinking better of waking him up.

She walked to Austin's sofa and sat down, raised her hand and pushed his shoulder and called out a

few times, but Austin still did not wake up.

Suny had to raise her hand to pat his face, probably because he felt pain, Austin moved.

He veered off and slid right onto Suny's shoulder, who stiffened slightly.

Despite being married for those three years, she had never been this close to him.

The living room was quiet, Austin's breathing was heavy, and even Suny's heartbeat followed suit.

"Austin?"

She raised her hand and patted him again. Austin finally woke up, his dark eyes slowly opened and he

looked at her, "Suny."

"You're in a coma with a high fever, take your fever reducer."

Austin sat up straight and watched her pass the fever-reducing medicine to his lips, he opened his

mouth straight away. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Water."

He reached for the glass of water, tilted his head and swallowed the medicine.

After taking a sip of water, Austin was much more awake: "What time is it?"

"Eleven thirty."

"Am I disturbing your rest?"

Suny gave him a look and spoke directly to expose him, "If you really didn't want to bother me, you

should have asked Elijah to come and pick you up."

Suny had seen through long ago their trick.
