Chapter 446 Feeding Medicine with the Mouth Penelope had to chill out and stop overthinking. She yanked off his pajamas, swapped 'em for fresh ones, helped him lie down, and started buttoning up his shirt.
She'd barely buttoned two when Kelvin grabbed her wrist and yanked her forward.
"Whoa!" Penelope tumbled onto him, her chin landing on his chest.
She thought Kelvin had woken up and quickly checked his face.
But his brows were all scrunched up, sweat pouring down his temples. "Penelope..." Kelvin's voice was raspy, but he was clear as day calling her name. "Penelope, don't leave me... Now that you're back, don't go again, okay? I ain't trying to trap you; I just want you in LA. That way, I can see you whenever. I don't want you miles away, in different cities, taking forever to meet. But I know you wanna leave, and I can't stop you. LA's got nothing for you. Penelope, Penelope, I love you." As he finished, Kelvin started coughing like crazy, his chest heaving, shaking the IV pole like mad.
Penelope didn't have tto soak in the "I love you." Seeing him cough so bad, she quickly patted him gently and grabbed swater, giving him a few sips.
After sfussing, Kelvin finally calmed down.
Penelope was sweating from all the effort. She stayed by his side but had no clue what else to do.
Kelvin kept calling her name, "Penelope, Penelope." So soft and so loving.
Every the called, Penelope answered.
He slowly drifted off again.
Penelope went back to buttoning his pajamas. "Even when you're sick, you're such a pain. You're burning up and out of it. If sother chick was taking care of you, you wouldn't even know, letting her change your pajamas and check out your abs?" Saying this, Penelope felt a bit jealous herself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo other woman could see her man's abs! Luckily, Madison was still at the hospital with Lucy; otherwise, it would be Madison taking care of him now!' Penelope suddenly felt a bit angry.
She didn't even know why she was so mad! Could it be that she was feeling possessive? "Hot, Penelope, hot..." Kelvin raised his hand to tug at his pajama collar.
But he was still on an IV! How could he move his hand around? Penelope quickly held him down. "I'll fan you; don't move!" He must have heard her voice because he obediently put his hand down.
Penelope quickly secured the IV bottle and found a fan to fan him gently. He kept sweating.
Seeing that the newly changed pajamas were about to get wet again.
"Ah..." Penelope said, "What did I do to deserve this?" She fetched a towel and gently wiped Kelvin's upper body to cool him down.
The more she wiped, the hotter her cheeks burned.
Why did he have to keep his body in such good shape? There was a knock on the door.
"Cin," she said.
Jeff walked in with smedicine, "Mrs. Davis, it's ready. Mr. Davis just needs to drink it, but based on my experience, Mr. Davis will likely throw it up. Please be careful." Penelope looked at the bowl of medicine.
She nodded and took it, "Leave it to me. It's getting late; you should rest, butler." "With Mr. Davis's fever still raging, how can I sleep? Mrs. Davis, there are servants outside. Just holler if you need anything. The doc's also crashing in the guest room, ready to jump in if things go south," Jeff said.
"Got it," she replied.
Jeff added with a warm smile, "Kinda feels like the old days when you and Mr. Davis were tight." "Tight?" Penelope chuckled bitterly, "We were never really tight."

Mrs. Davis, after all these years, I can tell Mr. Davis has always been head over heels for you," Jeff said.
She lowered her head, blew on the hot medicine, and stayed silent.
Jeff wisely left the room, gently closing the door.
Let Penelope stay with him.
For Kelvin, no medicine was better than Penelope.
Penelope tested the temperature of the medicine before bringing it to Kelvin's lips.
Smedicine spilled, staining the pillow and his collar, but at least he drank it.
It didn't seem as tough as she had imagined. After taking the medicine and the IV, he should be better after a good sleep.
Penelope was thinking this when Kelvin started coughing heavily again.
The more he coughed, the worse it got, his coughing echoing through the bedroom, his face turning red. Penelope feared he might choke.
As he coughed, he threw up all the medicine he had just drunk.
Penelope quickly grabbed a trash can but was a step too late.
She was stunned.
No wonder Jeff called her over. With Kelvin like this, even though it was just a fever and cough, it seemed very serious.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPlus, Kelvin usually had a cold and aloof demeanor, as if nothing could bring him down. Seeing him so vulnerable now was a stark contrast.
Penelope quickly called the servants to change the sheets, blankets, and pillowcases.
"Mrs. Davis, we couldn't get him to take the medicine all night," a servant said. "We need to find a way." "What way? Hold his mouth shut so he can't throw up?" Penelope frowned tightly. Kelvin started coughing and throwing up after taking the medicine.

"Do you have an idea?" Penelope noticed the servant's hesitation. "It's okay just say it. T "
"Mrs. Davis, I think you should personally feed Mr. Davis, the m medicine, "a servant said. "I did feed him the medicine. I watched him drink it," Penelope said.
The servant coughed, "I mean with your mouth." Penelope was stunned.
"Maybe it will work," the servant said. "Every twe use a spoon, Mr. Davis throws up.
If he throws up again, we won't have any more clean sheets to change." Penelope's face slowly turned red.
She felt like she was burning up! Penelope didn't respond because she didn't know how to.
The servant wisely cleaned up and left.
Penelope looked at Kelvin, then at the bowl of medicine.
Kelvin getting sick was torturing her to death! Gritting her teeth, Penelope made up her mind and decided to feed him! After all, Kelvin had taken advantage of her that afternoon.
If he could kiss her, why couldn't she kiss him? If Kelvin's fever didn't go down and he didn't get better, she might have to stay with him again tomorrow night! Penelope closed her eyes, picked up the bowl of medicine, and took a sip.
