Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Chapter 1566

At the hospital

Wesley silently watched the girl lying in the hospital bed. She was put on a drip. He called Adalson.

“She has a high fever-39.8 degrees

Celsius. Her burn wounds are infected. She’s been put on a drip in the hospital.”

Adalson frowned deeply.

“39.8? Wow. She can’t even take care of herself? I’m busy these days. Hartwell just left the city and herparents…” He paused, let out a sigh and continued, “Wesley, please take care of her for me, for just afew days.”

Wesley looked up at the ceiling, baffled. After a moment’s silence, he promised, “Don’t worry, UncleAdalson. I got this.”

After ending the call, he returned to the ward and sat down in a chair beside the bed. He fixed his eyeson the sleeping girl.

A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y

He remembered how she glared at him at noon. She was full of life then, but now she Lay motionless inthe hospital bed, with an IV drop.

When he checked on her the first time, she didn’t look that bad. The second time, she’d fallen into astupor induced by the high fever.

He felt so helpless. Why didn’t she take care of herself?

After thinking for a moment, he stood up from his chair and grabbed a cotton ball. He dipped it in aglass of water and cleaned her wounds.

After that, he applied the new ointment to her arm.

She trembled a little in her sleep, maybe because it stung. Wesley adjusted his technique and did itmore tenderly and carefully.

He noticed the complexion difference between his arm and hers. Her skin was fair and creamy-white.

It looked as soft as a baby girl’s arm.

Wesley put the ointment away. Hardly thinking about it, he took her small left hand in his big one.

It felt so soft and smooth. He had never felt anything like this. He totally lost himself in this specialfeeling.

Niles had come to the military hospital with his teacher to attend a medical seminar. It wasn’t easy toget a chance to attend that seminar, so he had hurried here. He heard from an acquaintance thatWesley was there too. He asked the ward number and came to see his brother. When he was about topush the door open, he was taken aback at what he saw through the windows in the door.

‘Oh my God! Will wonders never cease?

That’s my idiot brother! And he’s holding a woman’s hand!” Niles exclaimed in his mind.

An idea popped up in his head, and immediately, he took out his phone, switched it to silent mode andaimed the camera at the pair inside.

Wesley was supposed to be pretty savvy and aware of his surroundings.

He was hard to sneak up on. But since he was so engrossed by the touch of Blair’s hand, his guardwas down. He didn’t know Niles was standing at the doorway, snapping pics.

Suddenly, Wesley came back to his senses. Realizing what he was doing, he was flustered anddropped her hand at once.
