Chapter 1041

She was not dreaming, was she?

Was this real?

Gale moved her hand to her thigh, intending to pinch herself fiercely.

However, when she was about to pinch herself, he grabbed her wrist.

Immediately afterward, Shawn wrapped her hand in his palm, rubbing his fingertips on the back of her hand repeatedly.

"It's true. It will hurt, don't pinch yourself. When you hurt, my heart hurts too," Shawn said.

Gale blinked.

She felt more like she was dreaming.

What happened to Shawn? Why was he being so nice to her?

Gale looked aside.

The kitchen was empty, beside him and her.

The other servants have already left, leaving room for Mr. Wood and Mrs. Wood. Gale swallowed her saliva. "You...have a fever again?"

"Fever?"

"That's right. You only act like this when you have a fever," Gale said.

She still remembered that Shawn's attitude toward her changed when his high fever persisted that night.

After he recovered from his illness, he began to be obedient, gentle, and considerate to Winnie.
