Chapter 108: A Sick Lady
Regina’s eyes darted all around as her mind tried to come up with a reason or an excuse for me to stay. I pitied her and the situation that she was in. The fact that we were close had made me go easy on her in many ways just like I had spoiled her in the past as my little sister. However, things have changed, and I wasn’t sure how much longer I could let her play her little games before I needed to shut them all down completely. I was willing to turn a blind eye to things as long as no clear harm was done; however, things have gotten out of hand as of late.
“I think...I’m not feeling well...” she murmured softly as her eyes dropped downwards.
“What is wrong? Should I call for a doctor?” I asked.
“No...I...” she murmured before she hesitated.
I had no idea if she was truly sick or if she was just using it as an excuse to make me stay; however, it was always better to be safe rather than sorry. If she was really feeling ill, then she needed to be taken care of.
“Regina, how are you feeling?” I asked with concern.
“I have a headache...” she said in a small voice as her hand moved to her temple.
She closed her eyes as if in pain and I let out a sigh.
“You should get some rest. I’ll call for a maid to take you to your room. Where is that woman who is usually with you?” I asked.
