Wolf President Hooks Up novel Chapter 381

Emmett sat up with a jerk and quickly looked at Elaine who was sleeping on the sickbed.

He sighed softly again when he noticed she was still sound asleep with a frown, her ruby lips pouting.

She didn't wake up....

Turning around, he saw Kayden was holding a blanket with a stupefied look, asking in a hoarse voice. "It was you? What time is it?"

Kayden choked, "Master Smith, it's already past three in the morning. You can't sleep like this. You'll catch a cold. It must not feel good."

"You were tuckered out yesterday. Why don't you lie down on the bed beside this one? I'll watch over Ms. Jones for you."

Emmett knitted his brows, stood up, bent down, and leaned closer to Elaine's face. Then he rubbed his forehead against hers. It was still hot, at least 38 degrees Celsius.

"Why is she still burning up? I'm really worried!"

Emmett murmured anxiously, "Tonight is critical. If her fever goes down, she will be fine. But she still feels hot.... How can I leave her side to take a nap?"

"Please have a rest. I'll take over. It is going to be okay."

Emmett shook his head firmly.

"You go. I have to stay with her."

Getting Emmett to take a rest was like pulling teeth, so Kayden gave up after giving it another go.

"I regret this."

Standing outside the door of the ward, Kayden mumbled to his men still peeping in.

"What is it?"

"I realize I shouldn't have gone in to put the blanket on him. Now he has woken up and is determined to stay awake the whole night. Why did I do that? I hate myself."

His men sighed drooping their heads. "Yes, Master Smith really loves this woman. He has done so much for her. What did she do in her previous life?"

"Such a troublemaker."

Kayden curled his lips and sighed.

To him, Elaine was a professional troublemaker pretending to be kind and cute.

...

Although she had caused a lot of trouble, she never meant it. When you told her off, she would look at you with puppy eyes, making you look like the bad guy.

In a nutshell, she was the trickiest type, because she never needed to own up to her mistakes.

Emmett was trying to stay sharp, checking Elaine's temperature from time to time.

She was still running a fever!

It was not going down.

She was given a shot, but it didn't work.

If this continued, her internal organs would fail as the doctor said.

Emmett lost his patience and called the doctor over and over again. The doctor tried many ways to bring down her fever, but nothing helped.

At five o'clock in the morning, Emmett's face was green from anxiety.

"What kind of doctor are you? You're so stupid! You can't even bring down her fever! Are you a real doctor? I really want to smash your skull with the butt of a gun and see what's inside it! Is it straw or mud?"

Emmett snapped outside the ward. He grabbed the attending doctor's collar and forced the poor man into a corner. He roared as he pushed him hard.

The doctor's tongue was out of his mouth. Feeling his neck was about to break, he was having trouble catching his breath.

This patient's family member was so irritable!

"Master Smith, Master Smith! Please stop, Master Smith!"

Kayden and his men pulled Emmett from behind.

Emmett was too strong for them, so their effort was in vain.

The doctor's eyes bulged out, and he forced a few words in panic.

"There, there's another way.... There's another way...."

Emmett let go of the doctor but still glared at him, growling,

"Speak! What else can I do? Speak before I snap your neck!"

"Let's try the oldest trick in the book. Ice, ice cubes...."

"Ice cubes?"

"Put them under the patient to cool her off."

...

Kayden was pissed and yelled,

"Do you have a death wish? How about I grant it? What the crap is that? Are you trying to give her hypothermia? Lying on ice, my ass."

Emmett instantly calmed down and chewed on the doctor's suggestion with narrowed eyes.

"She got this ill because she stayed in the cold for too long. Will ice make it worse? You have to think this through!"

The doctor's lips were trembling. He was nearly choked to death by Emmett, and his lips were blue. "Let's bring down the fever first. Otherwise, it will do damage to her organs. This is the top priority. Let's worry about other things later."

"Fine! Ice it is! If things go south, you will suffer!"

At 5:30 in the morning, it was dark and frosty.

Her bed was blanketed in ice which emitted a white mist.

Kayden was worried. He looked at Elaine who was in Emmett's arms and asked,
