Chapter 217: Cold as ice
The site visit went smoothly with Fil and Kenzo getting along with the people on the site. The materials were also of high quality, just as Vincent promised. Since there wasn’t a problem, Kenzo and Fil briefly stayed to check other areas and observe the construction, giving out their professional assistance and what they needed.
Despite that, Fil couldn’t help but notice how strange Kenzo had been acting the entire time. His complexion was also not good. Hence, she insisted on driving on their way back.
"Are you okay?" she asked from the driver’s seat, glancing to her side where Kenzo was.
He had his eyes closed, hugging himself to stop his shivers. "Yeah. Just... a little dizzy."
"Should I take you to the clinic?"
"Nah. I just need to rest." Kenzo moved to his side, his back facing hers. "I feel like I’m gonna throw up or something."
"You didn’t drink last night, did you?" she asked, but this time, he didn’t answer.
Respecting his wishes to rest, Fil kept quiet and drove themselves back to the city. When they were almost in the city, she quietly called Olivia and told her about Kenzo.
"He said he probably needs a little rest," she whispered, glancing at Kenzo’s back. "Mhm. I’ll drive him back to his place first. No. I’ll drop by the office after this. The site visit ended earlier than expected, so I want to finish the report tonight."
After Olivia agreed, Fil hung up. She glanced at Kenzo once more, growing worried as the man hadn’t moved since he turned his back on her. However, she didn’t want to panic, so she stayed quiet throughout the ride, and soon enough, she reached Kenzo’s apartment without a hitch.
"Ken." Fil shook his shoulder mildly. "Ken, we’re at your place."
