Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 208

When the Stars Forgot to Return My Wishes 208 Summary

Autumn notices Keith standing hesitantly in the doorway, looking exhausted and flushed with a high fever. Concerned, she checks his temperature and learns he has no fever medicine or other symptoms at his sparse new place. She quickly orders medicine for him and tends to him by applying a warm towel to his forehead. Keith feels comforted by her attentive care and allows himself to rest.

Autumn brings a kettle from her own home, boils water, and receives the medicine delivery after a brief mix-up with the address. She gives Keith the medicine, covers him with a blanket, and carefully monitors his condition. Once his fever begins to subside, she prepares oatmeal and feeds him gently, their interaction smooth and natural.

Keith asks if Autumn has often cared for others in this way before. She reveals that she once cared for her spoiled sister-in-law, Sienna, who demanded her attention whenever ill. Despite Autumn’s efforts, Sienna became ungrateful and even betrayed her by conspiring with Luna to push her out. Autumn’s words soften Keith’s expression as he takes the medicine.

Just then, there is a sharp knock at the door. Autumn informs Keith that his fever has gone down and that he has a visitor, then prepares to leave. The chapter ends with a quiet moment of relief after Autumn’s devoted care.

Chapter 208

Autumn turned her head just in time to see Keith standing hesitantly in the doorway. He was still wearing the same shirt from the previous day, but his usually vibrant face was now flushed a deep red, and he looked utterly exhausted and fragile.

A sudden wave of concern washed over her—he had to be unwell. Without a second thought, she hurried over and gently placed her hand on his forehead.

Her suspicion was confirmed: he was burning up with a high fever.

Carefully, she helped him settle onto the sofa and asked, “Do you have any fever medicine here at home?”

Keith tried to sit up straighter, but his eyelids drooped heavily, his head spun slightly, and his whole body radiated heat. He shook his head weakly. This was just a temporary place he had moved into recently, and apart from the bare essentials, he hadn’t stocked any medication.

Autumn’s voice softened as she pressed on, “Besides the fever, do you have any other symptoms? A sore throat, congestion, cough? Please tell me everything now so I can get the right medicine for you.”

Keith shook his head again, his voice barely audible. “No, nothing else.”

Without hesitation, Autumn pulled out her phone and quickly placed an order for fever and cold medicine with express delivery.

As she finished, her eyes scanned the sparse living room and landed on the empty coffee table. She frowned. “You don’t even have a kettle here?”

Keith shook his head once more.

Looking around, Autumn noticed there wasn’t even a water dispenser. Did he really never drink water at home? The place felt so bare, almost sterile.

Determined to help, Autumn went to the bathroom, soaked a towel in warm water, wrung it out, and gently laid it across his forehead to help bring down the fever.

Watching her move around so attentively, Keith’s lips curved into a faint, grateful smile. For the first time in a while, he felt a flicker of comfort and peace. Closing his eyes, he pretended to sleep, savoring the quiet care.

Soon after, Autumn returned with a kettle she had brought from her own place. She boiled water, poured it into a cup, and set it aside to cool.

Just as she finished, her phone buzzed—the delivery had arrived. She hurried to the door, but only then did she realize she had given her own address by mistake.

Waving her phone to catch the courier’s attention, she called out, “Over here!”
