Chapter 1079: Chapter 1079: Fever Chapter 1079: Chapter 1079: Fever He hadn’t returned so late because he had sneaked into Yale Shaw’s residence to retrieve the USB flash drive for her from four years ago?

Looking at the gunshot wound on his arm, tears slid down Camila Walker’s face once again.

He was risking his life for her, yet she had suspected him of being with Audrey Sawyer.

After calming down, looking at the wound on his arm, Camila Walker was still somewhat uneasy.

“Are you really okay like this? Should we go to the hospital?” He had a gunshot wound, could such casual treatment really be okay?

Clayton Howard shook his head, his voice somewhat weak, “It’s fine, it’ll be better after one night’s rest.”

He got up, and with her help, returned to the bedroom.

All night long, Camila Walker was filled with worry.

Not until deep in the night, when she was sure he had fallen asleep peacefully, did she allow herself to close her eyes.

.

In the early morning, a ray of autumn sunshine spilled in, and Camila Walker opened her eyes to find the man in bed still deep in slumber.

She quietly got up and checked on his wound.

Looking at him, it was certain he couldn’t go to the company today.

After getting up and freshening up, she made a phone call to Emily Walker, asking her to tell Baron Stuart that Clayton Howard couldn’t come into the company today and to take a day off for herself as well.

Then she went downstairs, and Mrs. Beckham suddenly spoke up with some urgency, “Lady, can I, can I take a day off today?”

Camila Walker, somewhat taken aback but seeing that Mrs. Beckham seemed to have some emergency, asked, “What’s the matter?”

“My son just called, said his wife is going to have a baby, and I, I would like to go to the hospital to see.”

Mrs. Beckham spoke with a look of urgency. Camila Walker didn’t have the heart to refuse her leave.

“It’s alright, you hurry on.”

“Oh, thank you, Lady!” Having said that, Mrs. Beckham untied her apron and left the villa in haste.

However, with Mrs. Beckham’s departure, Camila Walker suddenly realized a very serious problem…

What about their breakfast?

She returned to the bedroom to find the man in bed still had not woken up, which made her frown.

It was already 8 PM, and under normal circumstances, he should have awakened by now; could it be because of the injury?

She walked beside the bed, checked his wound again, then glanced at his handsome face, noticing that his once moist and sensual thin lips were now dry and cracked, and his complexion very pale.

She reached out her hand, tenderly stroking his exquisite face, and at this touch, she shivered.

So hot!

Was he… running a fever?

She remembered that every time she came down with a fever, her mother said her forehead was very hot…

When it came to these trivial household matters, she was quite ignorant, but she was certain that he must be feverish!

“Clayton Howard?” Her heart felt somewhat panicked, and she didn’t know how to handle the situation.

She had always been pampered and spoiled; even when sick, her mother would directly call for a doctor, while she herself was completely clueless about these matters.

“Clayton Howard?” She had heard that a high fever could kill a person, and she was very worried he might succumb to it.

It took half a moment before Clayton Howard lethargically opened his eyes, but with little strength, he promptly closed them again, his expression one of pain.

Seeing this, Camila Walker became even more anxious, her mind at a loss.

Suddenly, she thought of the family doctor.

And so, she made the call.

20 minutes later, the Walker Family’s family doctor arrived, cleaned Clayton Howard’s wound again, and then administered antipyretic medicine.

“Lady, you needn’t worry too much. After this bottle is finished, Mr. Howard’s fever should subside.”
