SWNOVELS Chapter 1373
“We'll continue our periodic ward checks during the night,” they informed her.
Millie, who had been preoccupied with Marcus's elevated temperature, raised her
head and noticed that the doctors were watching her.
She quickly grasped that their earlier words were a subtle reminder for her not to
use Marcus's bed again.
She managed to force a smile and commented, “Well... You all must be quite
exhausted, having to inspect the wards in the middle of the night.”
Once the door closed after their departure, Millie took a deep breath.
She closed her eyes and placed her hands on her hips. She was finding it hard to
breathe because of the recent events.
Marcus voice broke the silence. “Honey! Can you please switch off the light?”
Receiving no response from her, he continued, “The doctors have left. You can
join me in the bed now.”
She was fuming with anger. She turned her head to shot him a fierce glance,
letting out a snort as she made her way towards the switch board. After switching
off the lights, she walked straight ahead to the sofa. Marcus decided to let it for
now because all the medication was causing him exhaustion.
Both were sleeping when a sudden noise from the window disrupted Millie's
sleep.
She sat up, her eyes fixed on the window. Suddenly, a white figure drifted by,
startling her. Millie was so frightened that her hands clenched tightly into fists.

She scanned her surroundings. Everything was dark and in eerie silence.
Without a second thought, she called out.
“Honey?”
“Hmmm...” he mumbled, still awake. “What's wrong?”
Marcus also noticed a sudden gust of wind outside, causing the window to rattle.
It seemed to be the hospital bed sheet outside that was blown by the wind, which
scared Millie.
Suddenly, he felt as though fate had granted him an opportunity.
Millie feigned composure and replied, “No... Nothing... Just go back to sleep.”
She reassured herself that what she saw minutes ago could be her imagination.
“Would you like to come up and sleep with me?” Marcus offered.
“No... No, ah!” Millie hesitated. “But if the doctors, by any chance, come to
inspect the wards later, they'll scold me again.”
Millie was about to refuse again when her eyes widened upon seeing another
white figure move past the window. Her words died in her mouth.

“Okay, I am coming, but only because this sofa is so cold, and I really don’t want
to be an addition to their patients’ list by catching cold,” she said while standing
up from the sofa.
