Rebecca had a high fever of more than 40 degrees.The doctor said that she had anemia and was weak.

She could not stand the harsh environment. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

When Rebecca woke up, it was already the next morning.She was lying in Adam's bedroom.

His bed was surrounded by his scent, the faint scent of lime and mint.

"Young Madam, you're awake.Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."

It was Lotus who stood by her bed.

Rebecca frowned, turned her head, and narrowed her eyelids to see the sunlight outside the window.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window.

"Lotus, how long have I slept?"? "Fifteen to sixteen hours since you came back with the Young Master last night."

As he spoke, Lotus went to help Rebecca up.

Rebecca smiled at Lotus and said softly, "Thank you.’

"Well, you've given too much blood to him.Your body is too weak.You need to rest and recuperate."

Looking at Rebecca's pale face, Lotus felt heartbroken.

"Sit down.I'll get you something to eat."

"Lotus, where's Adam?"

Lotus wanted to leave, but Rebecca held her back.

"Oh, he went to the company with the chairman.’

"Oh"

Rebecca replied indifferently and asked nothing more.Then, Caroline called.

"Rebecca, what happened to you? Why aren't you at school? Professor is looking for you!"

"Oh, I have a cold.Please help me ask the professor for sick leave.I'll go tomorrow-"

"A cold? You were fine yesterday.Why did you catch a cold all of a sudden? Where did you go?"

Caroline really cared about Rebecca.Rebecca smiled.

"I'll tell you tomorrow.Go to class first."

"Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow.’

"Okay."

Rebecca had some congee and went to wash up.

She was weak and felt sore.She lay back on the bed and continued to sleep.She slept until after 6 p.m.

After Lotus came in to remind her that Arthur and Adam would be back ina while and that it was time for dinner, she got up, went to wash up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.

"Mom: When she went downstairs and saw Julia, Rebecca called her meekly, lowering her head to show her obedience.” Julia glanced at her.

Although there was still disgust in her eyes, it was not so obvious.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes."Rebecca smiled.

"I'm fine, thank you, Mom”

"Rebecca, since Arthur has acknowledged you and Adam liked you, I have nothing to say.But from now on, you must meet the requirements of being the daughter-in-law in we Williams Family.Do what you should and don't do what you shouldn't.Don't make things worse."

Julia's face looked stern.

She said so but was unwilling to.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, father, and Adam from now on.’’ Rebecca nodded.

Her obedience made Julia angry but unable to scold her.

Julia looked at her and took a deep breath.

She wanted to say something else while she heard the sound of the car engine outside.

It was Arthur and Adam.She quickly went out.

Rebecca glanced out of the french window and followed her.

"Arthur, Adam, you're back!"

"Dad, Adam.’ After Arthur and Adam got off the two cars, Rebecca stood behind Julia and called them obediently.

"Yes."

Arthur looked at Rebecca and nodded.

"Are you okay?"

Rebecca smiled.

"I'm fine.It’s my fault to make you all worry about me.It won't happen next time.’ Arthur nodded and said nothing more.

He walked into the room.Julia quickly followed.

Adam walked over and glanced at Rebecca.

Without a word, he walked past her and went straight into the house.

Rebecca looked at his handsome figure and followed him.

Everyone was very quiet at dinner tonight.

Perhaps the prestigious families were all used to eating without talking to each other.

"Dad, mom, I talked to Rebecca yesterday.We both want to move out,’ when everyone finished eating, Adam suddenly spoke.

Then, he put Rebecca's hand into his palm and put it on the table.

Rebecca was stunned and looked at him.

His palm was so warm, even warmer than Linda's.

However, at this moment, Rebecca's heart was cold.

"Moving out?!" Julia was stunned, her face darkened, and she obviously disagreed.

"Why move out?"

Adam looked sideways at Rebecca with a smile and a gentle look.

He said with his low and mellow voice which was full of indulgence.

"Mom, our house is far away from the New York University.It's a waste of time for Rebecca to run back and forth like this every day.There are traffic jams when she comes back in the afternoon.It's a waste of time.That's why she had a high fever in the car yesterday.We will live near her school.It's also close to the company.It's perfect for both of us!"

Rebecca looked at him and her eyes were moist for no reason.

She would believe him if her fever was high enough.However, Adam would trample her into the mud time after time!

"What place near the New York University do you want to live?"

Julia's face darkened and she glared at Rebecca.

"Skyline No.1, I have an apartment in Skyline No.1.Mom, have you forgotten?"

Adam looked at Rebecca and smiled.

His smile was particularly bright, full of longing for the future.

Julia looked at Adam, pursed her lips, and stopped talking.Then, she looked at Arthur.

"Rebecca, is that what you think?"

Arthur wiped his mouth and hands with a hot towel.

He looked at Rebecca calmly and asked her.

Rebecca wanted to shake her head and tell Arthur that Adam just wanted to move out so that he could be with Linda.

However, Adam held her hand tighter and tighter, so tight that it almost crushed her bones.

Looking at her hand that was squeezed tightly by Adam, Rebecca looked at Arthur, then forced a smile, and nodded.

"Dad, my supervisor is writing a book about private investment and finance recently.He wants me to help him look up the information and do some data analysis.I agreed, so I might be busy for quite a while.It would be best if I could live closer to the school"

Rebecca was telling the truth, not a lie.Adam looked at her.

Although he did not know whether she really meant it, he was very satisfied with her words, so the strength in his hand gradually reduced.

"What kind of books? What are you going to meddle with other's business? It's none of your business.’ Immediately, Julia looked disgusted.

"Mom, not every student has a chance to be recognized by their supervisors to participate in the writing of books.Rebecca can get such an opportunity, which proves that she is outstanding.She can't miss the opportunity’

As soon as Julia finished speaking, Adam immediately began to defend Rebecca.

"Adam, you..."

"Well, since you want to move out, then move out, but you have to come back on weekends."

Julia was about to say how Adam could forget his mother so quickly after he married his wife, but before she could say anything, Arthur interrupted her.

Arthur looked at Adam and added, "And, Adam, you have to come to the company on time every day.Don't be late."

"Okay, I know.’ Adam nodded and agreed without hesitation.

At the same time, he pinched Rebecca's palm heavily.

Rebecca understood, smiled, looked at Arthur and Julia, and said, "Thank you, dad.Thank you, mom.Adam and I will definitely be back on weekends."

Julia looked at Rebecca and saw her faint smile.It was extremely annoying!
