Sophia then said, "Well, you don't need to move then if you're already lying
down. I'll ask the hotel staff for a key and bring in the medication for you. The sooner you eat it, the better." She then proceeded to leave.
"Wait," Zachary called out to her.
Sophia stopped and asked, "Yes, Zachary?"
Zachary replied, "Don't trouble the hotel staff for a key. I'm already getting dressed. I'll open the door for you once I'm done."
Sophia responded, "Are you out of bed already? Be careful, okay."
Zachary exchanged glances with Corinne, and she wordlessly broke free from his embrace. Corinne stood up, opened the balcony door, and left.
After Zachary closed the balcony door, he moved over to tidy up the sheets before undoing two of his shirt buttons. He then went to open the door for Sophia.
Sophia scanned the room instinctively after she entered. Something seemed to be amiss, but she was somehow unable to pinpoint what it was.
Zachary saw her glancing around and asked, "Where's the medicine?"
Sophia looked at Zachary and was no longer suspicious after noticing the two unfastened buttons on his shirt. She handed him the pillbox and said," This is it.
Take two pills twice a day."
Zachary accepted it calmly and repeated her instructions. "Two pills twice a day. Got it."
Sophia reached out to touch his forehead. "Your fever seems to have subsided a bit. It'll improve even more if you take the medication now. I'll get you a glass of water!" She then turned around and went to fetch a glass of water.
Zachary looked at the medicine with a frown. He was perfectly healthy, so there was no need for him to take the medicine. Sophia had persuaded him into taking numerous different medications over the years, claiming that they would help aid his physical recovery. However, he could feel his legs grow weaker with every new medicine he consumed, so he stopped taking them.
It was only when Sophia was around that he would pretend to swallow the pills before spitting them out again.
After discontinuing the medication for a while, he noticed his legs regaining some sensation. Since he had people that he wished to protect and memories that he needed to recover, he was not going to let himself remain crippled forever.
Sophia returned with the water. "Don't space out, Zachary. Hurry up and take your medication!"
Zachary let out a soft grunt and took out two pills from the pillbox. He placed them in his mouth before washing them down with the water.
Sophia's satisfaction was evident as she watched him eat the pills. "This medicine is highly effective, Zachary. You should be feeling better by tonight!"

Zachary nodded. "You've gone
through so much trouble with the
medicine. I've eaten them already) so you can go spend time with your
father without worrying about me." "It's fine, Zachary," Sophia reassured him. "I've explained that you were unwell, and he understands!" "That's good." Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel

Sophia wanted to stay with Zachary because she had finally been able to get 'Benjamin' out of the way that day. She intended to seize the

When Zachary saw that Sophia was still there, he raised an eyebrow and asked,
"Why are you still here? I've already taken my medicine."
Sophia came to her senses and said, "I don't have to spend that much time with
my father, Zachary."

Zachary frowned and said, "That is
for him to decide, not you. You're his
daughter, so it's
it's your duty to be with
hinh. You ought to spend as much
time with him as possible at least for
today; it is his first day here. Don't
worry about me. Visit

Spend some more time with him on my behalf, too."
Sophia could not argue with him because everything he said made perfect sense. She did not want to upset him, so she turned and left the room again.
