Chapter 83: Fever
Chapter 83-Fever
Aaron glanced away from Raymond weakly, his ears ringing from his nagging and voice. It was like what he was saying was echoing in his ears and made his head thump vigorously. Aaron never knew a voice could trigger a headache.
After he left Katherine’s apartment—heartbroken yet furious at himself for not deleting Amanda since day one—he regretted every decision of his. He should have taken Raymond’s question seriously yesterday. He’d thought Amanda would have sat still and waited till the contract expiration, and he would divorce her and pay her, but yet Amanda destroyed everything for her.
Aaron picked up his phone to call his PA to contact the lawyer when his phone screen blinked, chiming as Raymond’s call flashed in.
Painstakingly, Aaron swiped to green and held the phone to his ear. The phone nearly fell from his hand from loss of energy. "Hello," his voice sounded scratchy, rough, yet weak.
"Boss," Aaron could hear the worry in Raymond’s voice, and he rolled his eyes. "Are you okay?" his voice came in.
"I’m fin—" Aaron sneezed, not able to finish his statement.
"I can feel you’re fine," Raymond bit out, then Aaron heard shuffling sounds from the other side.
"Talk to you later," Aaron muttered, trying to hang up as his head pounded.
Aaron hung up, finally pulling off his sticky suit from yesterday, dropping it on the floor as he dragged his hot body to his room, and collapsed on the soft bed.
He just wanted to close his eyes. When he woke up and recharged, he would go back to Katherine, but for now, he couldn’t even feel energy in his body.
