Chapter 52: I’m in.
Getting to the garage, Lucas parked the car and excited the scene. He could retire for today because Lady Boss is in the doors already and he has no stalking job to continue for the day.
Arissa was about to come down from the car after the driver but stopped when she saw Nicklaus still seated on his seat with his head resting and beads of sweat dripping from his face not minding the cool temperature inside the car.
She raised her hand to his face to take the lingering hair strand off and to feel his temperature but, "Don’t do what you are thinking Arissa," Nicklaus warned with his eyes still shut.
And immediately, Arissa withdrew her hand and sat down back on her seat, "Go inside," Nicklaus ordered her with his eyes still shut and the sweat on his face increasing.
Arissa turned to him. If someone told her this man was unwell back in the restaurant, she would never have believed it so now, what’s going on with this fever of his?
Is it somehow linked to her dream?
No Arissa! That was a blood scene and not a fever scene, Arissa shunned herself.
"Let’s go inside," she suggested clutching onto her mini black bag as she tried to keep her hand in place from touching his face.
Nicklaus hissed.
"Stop that," Arissa shunned his act of hissing whenever he found her words annoying. "We can at least go to the hospital, can’t we?"
"I don’t want to Arissa. Just fucking go inside and let me rest," Nicklaus objected.
