“Oh yes!” Jacob felt a little disappointed in his heart, but he still pretended to be a sudden realization, patted his head and
exclaimed: “Oh, look at me, patronizing you and recalling the past, I forgot the task at hand.” After speaking, he hurriedly said
again: “Matilda, you sit and wait for me first, I’ll get you wet the towel.”
Matilda hurriedly said , “There is a bathroom on the first floor. Turn left in front.”
When she saw Jacob turn around Matilda was finally relieved. In fact, Jacob’s purpose was very clear to her. To be honest,
Jacob is not only her first man, but also the man she loves most in her life, so she naturally has some illusions and expectations
for Jacob in her heart. However, after all, she is a woman who has received higher education and has been a decent woman all
her life.
She knew that although Jacob and Elaine had separated now, their view of marriage still existed. Based on this, she felt that she
could not make a principled error anyway. Although Elaine shamelessly used her body to intervene in her and Jacob’s feelings,
she did not want to do the same thing. Just as she sighed in her heart, Jacob had already walked over with a wet towel.
Jacob wiped her forehead with a wet towel, and said, “Matilda, I bought you some digestible dinners. After a while, I will help you
go back to the room and lie down on the bed. Then I will feed you something. In addition, you have already taken the anti-fever
medicine, and I believe it will take a long time.”
Matilda nodded: “Thank you, Jacob, to be honest, I’m really hungry. I haven’t eaten much all day.”
Jacob hurriedly said: “Hey, why didn’t you tell me earlier? You should’ve told me as soon as you fell ill. If I didn’t ask you on
WeChat, you wouldn’t tell me the truth.”
Matilda said: “I don’t want to bother you either. I think I can survive it. I didn’t expect it to be getting worse.”
Jacob sighed and said lovingly: “If you have this in the future. I must be notified as soon as possible . I will come here as soon as
possible.”
Jacob said, “By the way, Matilda, I’ll take your temperature again to see if it’s getting better.”
Matilda nodded, pointed to a thermometer on the coffee table, and said, “Before you came, I wanted to take it again, but I really
don’t have any strength on my body. I can’t shake the mercury thermometer. Could you please shake it for me?”
Jacob hurriedly reached out and grabbed the thermometer in his hand. While shaking it, he said, “I didn’t know if Paul was on a
business trip. Otherwise, I’d definitely come to see you. You are sick at home. You need to have someone to take care of you.”
He handed the thermometer to Matilda and said: “Hurry up and buy an electronic thermometer next time, so as not to be
inconvenient for you alone.”
As soon as he said that, he remembered something, and hurriedly changed his words: “Don’t buy electronic ones. Electronic
ones are not as accurate as mercury. If you can’t shake it all by yourself, call me and I’ll help you.”
Matilda nodded, moved by his caring words. She was naturally very pleased with the thoughtfulness of Jacob in her heart,
especially when she was sick, she suddenly didn’t know where the sense of dependence grew.
So, she said with a bit of shyness : “Thank you Jacob.”
Jacob smiled and said, “You don’t have to say thank you to me. Didn’t you take care of me like this back then?”
Matilda’s expression turned her face. She whispered helplessly: “It’s all in the past, so don’t always talk about it.”
