Chapter 36 Are You a Woman?
Gwenyth suspected herself of getting heatstroke.
The medical staff examined her blood pressure and the result was normal, but her temperature was a bit high and she was dehydrated. These were indeed some symptoms of heatstroke, yet they weren't serious. The person who contacted them for help sounded distressed. In fact, it was really rare for them to receive a phone call, requesting them to send someone to the hospital just because of mild heatstroke.
"That man insisted on taking you to the hospital," one of the medical staff explained.
Nancy was then carried out of the bathroom. Seeing Edison following behind, she hurriedly exclaimed, "Tell them to stop. I don't need to go to the hospital, I'm fine."
"You fainted just now."
"It's just heatstroke."
"Are you sure?"
"Tell them to stop." Covering her face with both hands, never did Gwenyth experience something so embarrassing in her life before.
Edison gestured for the medical staff to put her onto the bed. When they wanted to carry her to the bed, she turned over and rolled off from the stretcher. Curling up her body into a ball, she covered her face embarrassedly.
"Sir, let her drink more water to rehydrate." After the medical staff finished speaking, they carried the stretcher and prepared to leave.
However, Edison stopped them. "That's it?"
"The room is air-conditioned and the temperature is suitable. Let her have a good rest and she will be fine in a while."
Soon, the ambulance left. Edison went to the kitchen and took a bottle of refrigerated water bottle. When he was back in the bedroom, he saw that Gwenyth was still curling up on the bed covering her face. Ignoring her embarrassment, he handed her the water bottle.
The iced water bottle was placed on the back of her hand, cooling her down. She looked up at him with her face flustered.
"Drink it."
She received the water bottle, hummed along, got up, and drank the water. The weather was scorching hot today, yet she didn't even drink a sip of water.
After drinking a bottle of water, she still felt thirsty. Edison left the bedroom and carried more water bottles to her.
Watching her finish the entire water bottle one after another and lay down on the bed after drinking, he glanced at the bathroom. The bath water hadn't been prepared yet.
He felt that Gwenyth couldn't help him take a bath. She really chose great timing to get heatstroke, didn't she? Now, he wondered if she was faking it.
He walked out silently, and when he came back, he was holding a roll of plastic wrap in his hand.
"Wrap it up for me," ordered Edison as he handed the plastic wrap to Gwenyth. "I'll take a bath by myself, I don't need your help."
As long as you're not fainting again, he thought inwardly.
He held up his plastered hand and let Gwenyth wrap his hand layer by layer with plastic wrap.
"Can I go back to my room?" She blinked at him, with a faint layer of sweat on her forehead.
Edison had no idea if she was really suffering from heatstroke or just pretending, so he didn't make things difficult for her anymore."Go to rest."
Gwenyth jumped off the bed in an instant, picked up the water bottles that were thrown on the bed, and left very quickly like a rabbit.
Seeing her lively reaction, Edison stared down at his plastered hand which was now wrapped in plastic wrap, with his somehow-distorted expression.
Back in the room, Gwenyth lay on the bed for a while, then went to take a shower. After washing off all the sweat and fatigue, she put on the large T-shirt she brought from home, drank some water, and lay on the big, soft bed.
The breezy air from the air conditioner was indeed comfortable, cooling her down while making her much more comfortable from the heatstroke.
Before going to bed, Edison came over to take a peek at Gwenyth. He had a cigarette in his mouth as he gently pushed the door open. As he didn't know if she was asleep or awake, he was very gentle in his movement, afraid to wake her up.
However, he was shocked at the appearance of Nancy, who was lying on the bed without any image while snoring loudly.
"Huh?" Edison halted, wondering that the way he entered wasn't right. So, he exited the room and re-entered, yet the picture he saw was still the same.
The person who was lying on the bed- with her bad sleeping posture and snoring sound looked even worse than the old men. Was she the weak woman who fainted in his arms due to heatstroke an hour ago? he wondered.
He twitched his eyes, and the cigarette he was biting almost fell off. Immediately, he took out the cell phone from his pocket, taking photos of the woman. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Gwenyth woke up naturally. When she opened her eyes, she saw the cloudy sky outside. It was raining pitter-patter, yet the sound was uneasily noticed.
The air conditioner in the room was somehow switched off, the windows were wide open, and the cool morning breeze was blowing inside the room.
She got up from the bed and stretched her body. The first thing she did was grab the mineral water on the nightstand to hydrate herself.
Getting heatstroke was way too unpleasant for her.
She usually didn't like to drink water, and when she gets busy, she often forgot to drink water.
After cleaning herself up and changing into a comfortable t-shirt and jeans, she walked out of the room.
When she got to the first floor, she found that Edison was already awake. He was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with a cup of coffee in his hand.
Hearing her footsteps, the man lazily lifted up his eyes and fixed his gaze on her, staring at her fair legs.
"Ahem..." She coughed twice. Yet, Edison didn't shift his gaze and continued to scan through her from top to bottom.
Looking at her seductive body figure, Edison recalled the short video her recorded yesterday and smirked.
"Are you really a woman?" His question made Gwenyth dumbfounded. How silly his question was? If she wasn't a woman,
could it be that he was?
"What kind of question are you asking?"
Edison kept smiling. Putting down his coffee cup, he gestured for her to come over. "Come here, I'll show you something interesting."
Gwenyth walked over and sat down next to him.
He took out his phone from his pocket and tapped on a video recording. Since the light was a little dim, Gwenyth moved closer to look at the video, only realizing that the person in the video was herself.
Observing the angle on how the video was recorded, it seemed that Edison was taking his phone and walking toward her little by little from the doorway.
In the video, she has fallen asleep, with her ugly sleeping posture and loud snore, seemingly enjoying her sleep.
Her face flustered all of a sudden as she realized the camera was getting closer to herself in the video, from her feet to her legs, then slowly moving up, focusing on her face.
At this moment, she was totally embarrassed.
"Are you a pervert?" How dare he secretly record a video of her sleeping?
She reached her arms out to grab Edison's phone, eager to delete what he had taken down. Yet, the latter reacted quickly by getting up and raising his arm.
"Are you really a woman?"
He looked down at her from above, with a glint in his eyes. "Do you usually sleep with that posture? Your snoring could even wake cows up"
Gwenyth was totally speechless when listening to his remarks. How eager she wished there was a hole in the floor for her to hide herself.
She wasn't usually like that. She was just too tired yesterday.
"Delete that video, right now."
Edison smiled and hooked his head, refusing her request.
"Why are you keeping that for?"
He had recorded her so uglily. Even she felt ashamed to watch it.
"Since I like it, I'll keep it."
"You've gotten nuts, haven't you?"
