Chapter 51
At night, Jonathan was woken up by Rosalie’s low cries. When he turned. on the light, he found that she had not slept well and seemed to be murmuring something.
Nonetheless, her voice was so soft that he could not hear her at all.
“Rosie!” Calling her name, Jonathan raised his hand and touched Rosalie’s forehead. However, he found that her forehead was sweaty, and the temperature of her forehead seemed to be hot.
Jonathan quickly wet the towel with water and wiped Rosalie’s forehead. Meanwhile, Rosalie’s eyes were still closed, and she was mumbling something.
No matter how many times Jonathan called her, Rosalie never opened her eyes.
Jonathan pursed his thin lips, feeling anxious and uneasy. He did not know what to do to make Rosalie feel better for a moment.
It seemed that this was the first time he would worry about a woman like this.
Jonathan took out his phone and dialed Carlos‘ number. So, at 2 a.m., Carlos received a call from Jonathan.
“Contact a doctor for me now. Bring the doctor to the rental home. Rosalie has a fever.” Jonathan’s voice was full of worry.
“Now?” Carlos was startled.
“Yes, now,” Jonathan said.
Carlos had no choice but to contact the doctor immediately. Then, he got up from the warm quilt in the middle of the night and sent the doctor to the rental home.
Carlos was very cautious when knocking on the door. After all, Jonathan did not want Rosalie to find out who he really was.
Soon, the door was opened. Jonathan stepped aside and directly let the doctor and Carlos into the room.
As soon as they entered the room, Carlos found Rosalie lying on the bed with her eyes closed. She did not seem to be awake.
“Please check on her. What’s going on with her now? I called her just now, but she wouldn’t wake up,” Jonathan said.

Carlos only felt that Jonathan seemed to be on the verge of panic at this
moment.
The doctor brought by Carlos was an experienced family doctor. Although the doctor did not know Jonathan’s identity, he knew who Carlos was.
The doctor thought he was going to treat a patient in those luxurious houses, but unexpectedly, he was taken to a small rental home.
After performing a basic examination on Rosalie and knowing that she had fallen down the escalator before, the doctor said, “It’s nothing serious. It’s just that she may have a fever caused by inflammation due to her injury today. I will prescribe some antipyretics now and let her drink. the medicine first. If the fever has not subsided tomorrow, she will need to go to the hospital for further examination.”
“Okay, I understand,” Jonathan said.
After the doctor prescribed antipyretics, Carlos led the doctor away. Jonathan stayed in the room and poured a glass of warm water, getting ready to feed Rosalie medicine.
When Carlos arrived at the door, he saw Jonathan coming to the bed with medicine and water.
Carlos was a little stunned. He had never seen Jonathan take care of someone like this before. Besides, it was a woman!
He wondered if Jonathan loved Rosalie without knowing it.
But then Carlos told himself not to think about it anymore. This was something he should not speculate at all.
Carlos gently closed the door of the rental home. In the room, Jonathan looked at the sleeping woman and placed the medicine on her dry lips. “Good girl, take the medicine.”
However, Rosalie’s lips closed more tightly subconsciously. Jonathan could not even stuff the pills into it, let alone let her take them down.
Jonathan almost pursed his thin lips into a straight line. Then, he put the pill in his mouth with water and lowered his head to Rosalie’s lips.
Jonathan’s lips pressed against Rosalie’s, and the tip of his tongue pushed open her lips to deliver the medicine into her mouth. In fact, there were other ways, but inexplicably, he still used this method to feed her medicine.
Even if the medicine had already been in Rosalie’s mouth, Jonathan’s lips

were still pressed onto hers.
It seemed to be a kind of greed and addiction. The more he touched it, the more he wanted it until he could not let go of her.
“Rosalie…” Jonathan murmured, calling Rosalie’s name.
Suddenly, Rosalie slowly opened her eyes as if she sensed it. She slowly opened her eyes and locked her confused eyes on Jonathan.
Jonathan was slightly stunned. Somehow, he felt nervous at this moment.
Then, Rosalie opened her mouth and smiled at him dumbly. “Mom, I’ll be good. I want you to sleep with me.”
Jonathan did not say anything. He could not help laughing and thought Rosalie must be really confused because of the fever that she had
mistaken him for her mother.
Nevertheless, Rosalie’s smile was childish and innocent, which made people feel sorry for her. Jonathan thought of her mother who passed away at a young age. To Rosalie, her mother was the last warmth in that house.
Jonathan smiled unconsciously. His father and Rosalie’s mother died at a young age. Somehow, their condition was really similar to each other. “Mom, can you stay with me? I will be good and very obedient…” Rosalie opened her eyes halfway. Her cheeks turned red because of the fever, and her pink lips opened and closed. She looked like some kind of little animal that was pitiful.
“Okay.” Jonathan could not help but answer Rosalie. He opened his hand, held her hand, and pulled her hand to his cheek. His cheeks gently rubbed against her palm and said softly, “Go to sleep. I will stay with you.”
Rosalie closed her eyes and fell asleep again. But this time, she did not sleep so unsteadily and mumbled something as before. Instead, she slept soundly.
Meanwhile, Jonathan looked at the sleeping Rosalie silently and kissed her palm greedily.
“Rosalie…” he said.
It seemed that Jonathan’s desire for Rosalie was getting stronger and
stronger.
The longer they got along, the more he wanted her!

“Dad, Mom!” The next day, Zendaya hurriedly complained to her
parents, “Zach hit me for Rosalie yesterday and didn’t show any respect at all, especially when Yvette was still there. You don’t even know how unpleasant she looked at that time.”
In the Xanthos residence’s living room, Zachary’s face darkened. He did not care about Zendaya’s complaint at all. His mind was full of what Jonathan would do this time after Rosalie got hurt.
“Did you meet Rosalie yesterday?” Frank asked.
“Yeah,” Zendaya said angrily. “A person who sweeps the road even goes. shopping and enters a famous brand store! Dad, Mom, did you know that Zach directly gave a check for 960 thousand dollars to Rosalie
yesterday?”
