Chapter 774 She Had a Fever

After Georgia left the hotel in a daze, she didn't know where to go.

It was as if fate led her to the clinic, where she sought out Cora.

Cora had just arrived at the clinic and hadn't started seeing a patient yet.

Seeing Georgia's listless look, she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter? Is there anything wrong?""It's nothing. I drank some wine yesterday. Auntie, don't worry about me."

Even though Georgia said so, Cora reached out and poked her head.

Little did she expect that Georgia was running a high fever.

"Your temperature is already 102 degrees Fahrenheit. Did you catch a cold yesterday?"

Cora hurriedly found a thermometer and had an examination.

After fussing over her for a while, she prescribed some medicine and advised, "Heartbreak is notworth tormenting yourself like this. It will only give those scoundrels something to laugh about.”That was right, Cora thought that Georgia got drunk and caught a cold because of Lenard.

But in fact, Georgia did it for Efren.

Although she kept emphasizing that she had no feelings for Efren, it was just a misunderstanding atthe beginning of her love affair.

What the woman at the hotel said tore away her last shred of denial and forced her to confront hertrue emotions for the first time.

She could fool everyone, except herself.

She liked him...

Unfortunately, even if she discovered her true feelings, it would be in vain because upon realizingher feelings for Efren, she also learned about his promiscuous nature and put an end to heremotions.

"I'll take you home to rest. It's not suitable for you to run around.” Cora offered, but Georgia politelydeclined.

"It's alright, Auntie. I'm a grown woman and can go home by myself."

Cora wanted to say something more, but Georgia quickly reminded her, "Your patients are waitingfor you. They have been eagerly anticipating their appointments for so long. If they can't receivetreatment because of my delay, they might curse me in their hearts!"

Unable to persuade her, Cora had no choice but let her leave alone.

It was just that when she just got home, Cora’s call also came.

"Auntie, I'm home. It's okay. I said I can do it. Okay, I'll take a rest after taking the medicine, and tryto get better tomorrow.”

Georgia reassured her.

However, once she hung up the phone, the forced smile on her face, meant to please Cora,vanished without a trace.

At this moment, Isidra came down from upstairs and asked, "Georgia, whose house did you sleep inlast night?"

This paternalistic questioning tone made Georgia's brows furrow slightly.

She was an adult.

And she also had several properties under her name.

Spending the night alone in her own house wasn't a rare occurrence.

So even her parents didn't ask her in such a tone.

It was because they all knew that she was sensible.

But Isidra was just her friend, and she just lived in her house by chance, but she questioned Georgiain such a tone, which really made Georgia a little unacceptable.

Therefore, her tone was a bit colder. "I don't need to report to you if I spend the night at someone'shouse."

Isidra was taken aback, feeling that Georgia's attitude was a bit hurtful.

"I don't want you to report. I just think that since we're living under the same roof now, it's a matterof respect to inform each other about our whereabouts.”

Georgia, still feverish and suffering from a splitting headache, couldn't be bothered with suchmatters of respect.

"If you think I don't respect you, you can live elsewhere.”

All she wanted now was to get some rest, and she had no patience to listen to Isidra teaching her."Georgia, how could you treat me like this?"

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room and sleep."

Isidra was very annoyed, but Georgia ignored her and went back to the room to rest.
