The warmth of his body was surprisingly high, making Summer Shawcross suddenly tense up.

At that moment, the man reached out and wrapped his arms around her back, pulling her to rest against his chest.

"Don’t move, let me hold you for a while!"

His deep voice, along with the incredibly natural action and tone, made Summer Shawcross dazed for a moment.

Suddenly, there was a delusion...

Did he really not recognize her?

Summer’s mind was filled with confusion. When she slowly raised her head to look at the man’s handsome face, she found that he was holding her and leaning back on the sofa with his eyes closed, resting.

The cold and stern face now revealed faint traces of fatigue.

Seeing him like this, Summer’s heart ached suddenly.

She stared at his face for a moment, then bit her lip, reluctant to disturb him, and instead gently rested her head on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat.

Her mood gradually calmed down.

She suddenly... really wanted to go back to Narsus City, and return to The Hillside Villa with him.

They were a legitimate couple, yet now they could only interact under such a guise.

She didn’t like him staying in this place, but she knew that even if she told him she was indeed Summer Shawcross, he wouldn’t leave The Drexler Family.

Thinking about it, Summer’s expression became conflicted. What leverage did Noah Drexler have on him that made him unwilling to leave?

...

Because his old injury relapsed in recent days, coupled with excessive fatigue recently, Noah Drexler had a deep sleep.

When he woke up, he instinctively tightened his arms, only to find them empty.

He opened his eyes instantly, full of vigilance.

When he opened his eyes, he noticed the woman in a servant’s outfit, sitting on the carpet, asleep beside the sofa.

Despite her once fair and lovely face now being tanned and simple, she still looked so serene and beautiful...

His expression paused for a moment, and his eyes suddenly softened.

It was then he noticed a slightly cool sensation on his forehead. He instinctively raised his hand and removed what was there.

It turned out to be a... children’s fever patch?

Seeing this, he couldn’t help but frown.

It seemed like she heard the rustling beside her and had a reaction in her sleep.

The man’s actions stiffened abruptly, stopping his movements, and made no sound. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

But she still opened her eyes and woke up.

Summer Shawcross lifted her head and saw the man reclining on the sofa, holding the fever patch while frowning at her.

"Master Noah, why did you take it off?" Seeing this, her expression became a bit tense. She hurriedly reached out to take the fever patch from his hand, wanting to help him apply it again.

But just as she reached out to grab the fever patch, the man twisted his wrist suddenly.

"You think I’m a child?" He frowned, somewhat displeased, and asked her.

Did she really use a children’s fever patch on him?

Seeing his displeased face, Summer felt a wave of helplessness in her heart.

This man was still the same—stubborn...

A proud and stubborn big man!

She sighed helplessly, then suddenly extended her hand, placing her palm on his forehead to check his temperature.

"This fever patch worked well; your fever has already subsided." Summer smiled with a joyful expression.
