Arranged Marriage With The Billionaire

CHAPTER 40



“Thank you” he took the tray from her hands and placed it on his lap.

Dylan ate his soup slowly, Blair watched him. It wasn’t as if he didn’t like the soup, he just didn’t feel like eating anything. He lost his appetite.

Blair placed her hand on his head to feel his temperature.

“You are still a little feverish Dylan, are you sure that you feel okay?” She asked.

Dylan didn’t know what to tell her. He promised never to lie to her and he didn’t want to break it for any reason.

“No Blair. I’m not okay, I have a terrible headache, something happened in the office and I can barely eat this soup. I feel so tired Blair” he spilled.

“Oh my darling. I’m sorry, should I call the doctor to come check you?” She asked him.

“Anything you want” he laid his head on the pillow.

“Dylan why didn’t you tell me all of these?” She asked.

“Because I didn’t want you to worry so much about me” he whined.

“How is that possible?” She asked.

“I know you Blair. You will certainly feel bad and blame yourself” Dylan stated.

“Why bother about that? It doesn’t matter. I just want you to tell me you’re sad when you’re sad. You are sick when you are. Please don’t hide things from me Dylan” Blair pleaded.

Dylan sighed, and held her hands.

“I’m sorry Blair. You’re right I shouldn’t do that” he accepted.

“No you shouldn’t, please” she begged.

“I won’t, I’m sorry baby” Dylan hugged her.

“It’s okay” she rubbed his back.

He let her go and rested his head on the pillow once again.

“Since you can’t eat I will take the plates away. And I will call the doctor to come check you. Is that okay?” Blair asked.

“Yes it’s fine” Dylan answered.

“I’ll be back soon” she left him in the room.

“Okay” he answered.

Blair left for the kitchen. She returned the tray and took out her phone from her pocket. She dialed their doctor’s number.

“Mrs Lancaster” the doctor greeted.

“Good day sir, I was wondering if you drop by and check up on Dylan? He’s feeling sick, ” Blair explained.

“Oh sure, I will be there soon,” he promised.

“Oh thank you so much” she gushed.

“I will be on my way Mrs Lancaster” the doctor said before dropping the call.

Blair sighed. Thank God that they had a doctor that they could use urgently if not Blair would have had to drive him to the hospital herself.

And of course he would protest and throw his tantrums but she would still do it.

Blair went back to their room to check him but she found that he was already asleep. She guessed he would be awake by the time the doctor would arrive.

She decided to do the dirty laundry that sat in their bathroom.

So she brought them out and threw them in the washing machine to wash. While she did that she cleaned the kitchen, Blair just wanted to get her mind away from things and she figured that cleaning would help her.

Dylan sent some of the help home for a while because I wasn’t home and the house was almost empty. The only help were the ones around to clean the house generally.

She cleaned and washed until the doctor arrived. The doorbell rang and she went to open the door, not before she checked if it was truly the doctor.

“Mrs Lancaster” the man called after he entered.

“Doctor Cosgrove, welcome. Dylan was asleep the last time I went but I’ll check if he’s awake now” she told him.

She went in to check Dylan but he was still asleep so she decided to wake him.

“Dylan, baby, wake up” she tapped him gently and he opened his eyes.

“Blair” he called.

“Yes darling. The doctor is here to check you” she told him.

“Oh, I’ll just quickly clean up in the bathroom and come back inside,” he said.

“Okay” she answered.

Dylan got up from the bed and walked into the bathroom. He washed his face and changed his shirt.

“I’m ready” he came out of the bathroom.

Blair held out her hand for him to hold while they walked to the room where the doctor was.

They had an examination room in the house, the bed was a little different from the normal bed they used in the other rooms.

“Good day Mr Lancaster” the doctor greeted.

“Doctor Cosgrove, good day” Dylan answered as he laid down on the bed-like chair. Blair helped him.

“How are you feeling?” The doctor asked.

“I feel weak and tired and my head hurts,” he explained.

“Any other thing?” The doctor asked him.

“My body aches as well,” he pointed out.

“Alright” he said.

He brought out his materials and used some of them on Dylan. He drew blood, checked his eyes and some other places too.

Doctor Cosgrove was their family’s doctor. He had been taking care of them since Dylan was a kid.

He treated everyone in the family. And he also used to be a surgeon but his daughter took over from him. Now he’s just a general doctor.

“Mr Lancaster I think you just need to rest, you are clearly stressed out. And you haven’t been eating properly? It shows. I will bring in your test results tomorrow” he concluded.

“Thank you sir” Blair said.

“Thank you doctor” Dylan thanked him.

“Would you like anything sir? Before you go?” Blair asked.

“A glass of water will do and while you’re at it please bring some for your husband. He seems dehydrated” the doctor said.

“Okay,” she answered.

Blair filled two glasses with water and took it to the room where they were. She met them discussing and Dylan laughed.

“Doctor, here’s a glass for you. Dylan, please pick the other glass” she ordered.

They both drank the water at once.

“Refreshing. Thank Mrs Lancaster” the doctor thanked her and picked up his bag, ready to leave.

“Thank you doctor” Dylan shook his hand.

“No problem and please don’t forget to drink a lot of water, so that you don’t look pale. Take care” he advised and walked out of the room with Blair behind him.

“Thank you sir, for coming” Blair thanked him once again when they got to the door. The man chuckled.

“It’s alright. I will send the results tomorrow, goodbye and please do take care of him. I know he can be stubborn and might not want you to but don’t mind him” the doctor told her. She smiled.

“Alright sir I will take good care of him, don’t worry” she assured him.

“Alright then, enjoy the rest of your day” he said and walked out the door and went into his car.

His driver revved the engine and drove out of sight.

Blair shut the door and went back inside the house.

“Dylan?” She called him.

“Blair? Are you okay?” He asked.

“Yes I wanted to make sure you were still there. Come let me take you back to bed” she held his hands and he let her pull him up.

She led him back to the bedroom and made him lay down. He pulled her down with him.

“Dylan! What are you doing? You’re making me rest on you. I don’t want to cause you harm” she complained.

“Come on Blair, what harm could you possibly cause? Hmm” he asked and searched her eyes for the answer.

She suddenly flashed back to the message she received from Richard and she looked away from Dylan immediately. She quickly got up from the bed as if it burned her skin.

“Uh no harm I guess. I need to take out the laundry. I’ll be back” she rushed out of the room.

Dylan laid down confused. He wondered what just happened and what came over her. He figured she had something to say but she didn’t want to say it.

“Hmph” he sighed.From NôvelDrama.Org.
