Chapter 864
While brushing her teeth, Alicia still felt nauseous then started to retch. It felt as if she was going to vomit all her organs out.
Frederick was still in trance, all the while washed and rinse, the feeling in her throat could not be suppressed. From time to time, she gagged uncontrollably.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her tightly. His heart ached as he said, "You're sick. Let me bring you to the hospital. Carson would know how to help you!"
With so many experts around, even if she couldn't be cured, couldn't her symptoms be relieved a little?
She raised her head and looked at him in surprise. Alicia replied quickly, "It's just nausea, you don't have a fuss. Even if Carson's resources are free, we should not waste them just like this!"
She just accidentally bit a little silkworm pupa. To be hospitalized just because of that...
When she thought of eating insects, Alicia gagged again. She pushed him away and ran to the bathroom. As she bent over the toilet once more, she waved him away.
"Frederick go out! Go out and don't look at me!"
Why did he keep staring at her?
After retching, Alicia suddenly felt better. She straightened up and met a pair of sorrowful eyes in the mirror. Feeling the warmth behind her, her face couldn't help but become a little more serious. She turned around and gently caressed his stubbly face with her hand. When she spoke again, her voice was much lighter and softer.
"Hey, I'm not a fragile vase. Do you still treat me like a baby in your arms? I'm not that weak, so don't worry too much about me!"
It's just some vomiting. Why was he so nervous?"
Alicia pulled him out of the bathroom and sat down on the sofa. She reached out her hand and pointed to the dish that had not been finished yet.
"I just ate something that made me sick! I'm really fine! It's all that shop owner's fault for putting something weird in my food. There was a silkworm pupa in it. The moment I realized it, it completely ruined my appetite! I'm so angry! Looking at it again, my appetite has completely gone! I shouldn't have been so gluttonous to buy the snacks..."
Disgusted, Alicia showed him the plastic bag over and leaned comfortably in his arms. She even rubbed herself against his chest.
"Did you know? I've been afraid of this since I was a child. I can't believe that I took a bite of it. Oh my god, it's so gross! It's useless even if I brush my teeth thousands of times! I'm so hungry, yet I don't want to eat anymore! Well, It's fine that I ate it unknowingly. I just had to accidentally glance at it when I was about to drink my glass of milk. Hubby, don't you think I'm so unlucky? I don't care if that this thing contains protein. Insects are insects, I'd rather not have that protein!"
Remembering the disgusting silkworm pupa, Alicia began to feel uncomfortable again. She turned her face and buried herself in Frederick's arms. She didn't even dare to look at the plastic bag even more.
"Hubby, quick! Throw it away, I feel grossed out again!"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
With his heart still in his throat, Frederick stretched out his arm and threw it into the rubbish bin immediately, "Don't hide it from me. Are you really not in pain?"
From what Danica said, the poison in her was extremely vicious. A living death. Naturally, she would suffer more if she lived. Stroking her hair, Frederick felt as if his heart was tied up in knots.
"So you still feel sick? Ally..." She should go to the hospital!
Frederick resolved, instantly. No matter what method he had to use, he had to save her, he must save her!
She shook her head cutely. Feeling the love and care from Frederick, Alicia successfully controlled her discomfort. Her expression gradually turned into a blooming flower smile.
As she opened her mouth to say something, a familiar ringtone sounded and Alicia quickly grabbed the phone, "Martha..."
It was a customer who was urging her to settle some payments. Letting out a sudden cry, she said quickly.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Martha, I'll transfer it
to you right away! I was going to do it today. Silly me, I'm so busy that I forgot about it, sorry for that. Don't worry, we have been collaborating for such a long time already, definitely settle the payment right away!"
While talking, Alicia hurriedly rummaged her bag. "We'll have a lot of opportunities to collaborate more in the future! Okay, got it, Martha, I'll transfer the payment immediately!"
After hanging up, Alicia quickly logged in to her mobile bank account. While doing so, she was muttered to herself, "Oh wait, what is the password again? Huh, wrong password? Oh right, that 58."
Although she was just babbling to herself, Frederick felt his fear rising again. Looking at her working so hard, he felt helpless.
After finishing her work, Alicia sent a message to Martha, then made a call to the finance department to inform the person in charge about it. By the time she was done, 20 minutes had gone by.
Staring at her, Frederick felt as if his heart was being tortured. He was anxious.
When she finally finished her work, Frederick gently caressed her hair, "Ally?"
"Yes?"
At that moment, a cool breeze blew, and a familiar and irritating scent waft by. Wrinkling her nose, Alicia abruptly stood up and ran into the bathroom again. When Frederick stood up, he heard the sound of Alicia retching again. His face turned pale in an instant.
Before he could run towards the bathroom, Alicia came running out again. This time, there was tissue stuffed in both of Alicia's nostrils. She held her breath and rushed straight towards the rubbish bin. She then picked up the garbage bag and hurried to the door.
Frederick stared at her, dumbfounded. His mind was blank.
As quickly as she left, Alicia returned and closed the door. She then took out the tissues, patted her chest, and gasped.
"I almost suffocated to death!"
Then she quickly ran to the balcony, opened up a few windows to let out some fresh air.
Judging from her movements, she
did not seem sick any longer. After a short moment of joy, worry emerged in Frederick's mind again. As soon as Alicia returned, Frederick hugged her tightly and lowered his head to her neck. They stood with their whole lengths against each other intimately.
Alicia turned around and caressed his cheeks, with a faint smile on her face, "I know now it's really not suitable to eat in the bedroom. I won't be lazy anymore!"
If she had known that it would turn out like this, she would have finished her dinner downstairs.
"I have no one else to blame but myself," she thought.
"Hubby, you will be happier in the future! You don't have to scold me for eating in our bedroom again. I won't do it even if you allowed me to store my snacks in the bedroom. Never again!"
Their bedroom smelled like food, and it was
terrible!
After she spoke, she chuckled.
"However, if not for gaining weight, eating snacks on the sofa is such a great enjoyment... It feels different!"
When she finished speaking, she started to feel a little tired and even yawned twice in a row.
