Claimed by My First Love's Brother (by Evergreen) novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25 His Princess

The room was dark and silent. There was no one else but me.

Did Reynaldo not come back?

I hurried out of bed and went downstairs.

My legs were weak. I almost fell down the stairs.

Madisyn was cleaning the living room. She saw me and asked quickly, “Ms. Duffy, you get up? Are you hungry? I’ll make you some food.”

I was not hungry at all, so I just shook my head and asked, “Is Reynaldo back yet?”

“No.” Madisyn said. “Ms. Duffy, do you want him to come back? I’ll call him right now.”

“No, don’t!” I waved my hand quickly

Looking at the empty yard, I realized I had a dream just now.

I dreamed of Reynaldo, dreamed of him humiliating me.

The night breeze blew in from the window, and I shivered. I realized I was sweating.

I wiped the sweat off my face and walked upstairs in frustration.

It was already past nine o’clock. It seemed Reynaldo wouldn’t be back tonight.

I went back to my room and took a shower.

But I still felt dizzy and uncomfortable. My whole body ached.

I realized I had a fever, and I asked Madisyn for some medicine.

After taking the medicine, I fell asleep quickly.

All night, I was caught between reality and dreams.

I felt like Reynaldo was back, and he was watching me by the bedside.

But it seemed like another dream.

I felt dizzy all night, and I woke up at ten o’clock the next morning.

I was sweating again, but my fever didn’t seem to go down.

I still felt very unwell.

Madisyn came in with breakfast.

She saw I looked bad, so she touched my forehead and said it was still hot. She gave me more medicine.

I asked if Reynaldo had come back last night.

Madisyn shook her head.

I stared out the window, feeling lost. I was really frustrated.

And I was even more anxious.

Those people would go after my dad for the money at midnight.

I couldn’t just wait for Reynaldo to come back. What if he didn’t go back?

I had to find him.

When I went to Reynaldo’s office, I could still hear a lot of gossip.

Everyone was making fun of me and my dad.

They said we saw Reynaldo become successful and immediately started clinging to him.

They said we were shameless. They thought I knew Reynaldo liked someone else, but I still didn’t want to leave him.

I didn’t pay attention to those sarcastic words and went straight to the office.

But the secretary told me Reynaldo went out with Kimberly.

I asked the secretary when Reynaldo would be back.

But she just shrugged and said she didn’t know.

I waited anxiously in the lounge for half an hour.

But Reynaldo didn’t show up. I felt dizzy and weak.

The medicine wasn’t helping at all. I needed to go to the hospital.

I needed to keep my head clear, so I could ask Reynaldo and borrow money from him.

I took a taxi to the hospital, got blood tests done, and had various checks. It took over an hour.

It was a high fever caused by a cold. Since the fever didn’t go down, I needed to get an IV.

I sat alone in the IV room, scrolling through my phone.

I asked Reynaldo twice last night if he was coming back, but he didn’t reply to my messages.

I stared at the chat screen for a while, then suddenly felt an urge to go to the restroom.
