Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1256 Merging into One

"He's burning up and kinda out of it, so just ignore him," Sadie said, setting down her teacup. "Grab the blanket; I'll crash on the couch."

"Oh, sure thing!" Barbara quickly snatched the blanket and pillow, setting them up on the couch for Sadie. She helped Sadie lie down and asked, "Ms. James, need anything else?" "Get me some water," Sadie said, rubbing her temples, looking beat.

"Right away, Ms. James." Barbara walked over to get a glass of water. She glanced back at Sadie, and while Sadie wasn't looking, she slipped a few drops of liquid medicine into the water before handing it to her. "Ms. James, here's your water!" she said with a smile.

"Thanks." Sadie took a few sips and lay down on her side. She ordered casually, "I need to rest. Don't bug me. Stay close and keep an eye on Joe's fever. If it spikes again, make sure he gets water and meds." "Got it," Barbara nodded repeatedly.

Sadie closed her eyes, and soon she seemed to be out cold.

Barbara stood by the bed, carefully watching Sadie. She softly asked, "Ms. James, need more water?"

Sadie didn't respond. Barbara sighed in relief and sat down on the armchair by the bed, quietly gazing at Joe. Her gaze was tender and full of affection.

At that moment, Joe started coughing dryly. Barbara quickly walked over and gently patted Joe's chest. "Joe, you okay?" she asked softly.

Joe's coughing got worse, and he seemed to struggle to breathe.

Barbara hurriedly fetched a glass of water and helped him drink it.

After drinking the water, Joe seemed to feel much better and lay on the bed, breathing heavily.

Seeing Joe in this state, Barbara felt a deep ache in her heart. She couldn't help but mutter, "Joe, you're such an idiot. Why are you so hung up on a bad woman? Sadie isn't worth your love."

As she spoke, Barbara glared resentfully at Sadie on the couch. Looking at Sadie's beautiful face, she felt a surge of jealousy and walked over, raising her hand to slap Sadie.

But just then, footsteps sounded outside. Barbara was startled and quickly withdrew her hand, returning to Joe's bedside.

The footsteps soon faded away, but Barbara knew there were always people patrolling outside, so she didn't dare to act recklessly.

Besides, if she left any marks, Sadie would surely know it was her by tomorrow.

After all, besides Joe, it was just the two of them in the room.

Joe had started sweating after his coughing fit.

Barbara took a warm towel and gently wiped Joe's sweat.

"Sadie," Joe mumbled in his daze, thinking she was Sadie. He grabbed her hand and pulled her close. "Sadie, don't go," he murmured.

This time, Barbara didn't resist. She leaned into Joe, lovingly kissing his forehead, eyes, and cheeks.

She said emotionally, "Joe, do you know how much I wish it were me marrying you the day after tomorrow, not Sadie? If I had the family background, the status, the identity to match you, maybe everything would be different. You wouldn't be so heartbroken, and I wouldn't be so repressed and sad. I'm not like that, Sadie. I love you so much, and I would be a good wife."

With that, she passionately kissed Joe's lips.

Joe, feverish and delirious, subconsciously thought the person taking care of him was Sadie. Feeling her passionate kiss, he instinctively responded.

The two kissed fervently, completely forgetting about Sadie on the couch.

Before long, Barbara took off her outer clothes, climbed into Joe's bed, and began to kiss and caress him wildly.

Joe couldn't resist her wild and seductive passion. They merged into one, consumed by an insatiable desire.
