Chapter 324

Yan and the servant stepped aside and said in unison, "Mr. Lincoln." The man's eyes were as firm as a rock, without even a slight flicker or movement. His eyes had been fixed on the little woman on the bed. Jimmy knelt on one knee on the floor and put his hand on Maine's forehead. Hot. He pressed his thin lips tightly and asked in a serious and cold voice, "where is the doctor?" "She is on the way." Staring at Maine's wet clothes, Jimmy frowned and asked, "why don't you take off Mrs. Lincoln's wet clothes?" "Mrs. Lincoln refused." Jimmy stroked her wet face and said in a soft voice, "Meo, honey, let me take off your wet clothes, okay?" The little girl held his slender wrist unconsciously. "Jimmy... I'm cold..." Jimmy turned his face slightly and said to the people in the room, "you all go out. I'll take Mrs. Lincoln to take a hot shower." Sitting on the edge of the bed, Karla was stunned. "Mr. Lincoln, I can stay and help you." Jimmy squinted and said coldly, "my Mrs. Lincoln. I can take care of her myself." After saying that, he picked up the little woman who was wet all over and strode to the bathroom. The door of the bathroom was locked with a bang. Jimmy took her into the bathtub filled with hot water. The man's long and powerful arms stood across her chest, tightly holding her, and his thin lips rolled down to her ears. "Are you still cold?" She turned on the shower head and kept pouring hot water. Maine's thin white back was weakly leaning against his chest. The hot temperature melted the coldness on her body little by little. Her eyelashes were covered with mist. Like a small caterpillar, she shrank into his chest and sucked the warmth in his arms. The temperature of the hot water and his body warmed her cold little body. After soaking in the bathtub for about half an hour, Maine weakly fell into his arms and said in a soft voice, "hot." Sweat dripped from her forehead. Jimmy kissed her and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll take you out." He wrapped her tightly with a wide bath towel to prevent her from getting cold. He wiped her body dry and carried her out. They lay in the quilt together, and his arms tightly shackled her. After the cold and hot alternately, she was tired. She began to sleep soundly, and her weak breath tugged at his heartstrings. Jimmy stayed by her side until the family doctor came. Jimmy took the thermometer to her armpit. Maybe it was because she had been soaked in hot water and fortunately, she didn't have a fever. Yan made some ginger soup and Jimmy fed her. She clenched her teeth and waved her hands casually. She didn't like drinking ginger soup and splashed it all over the bowl. Yan handed the second bowl to her. Jimmy gulped it down, pinched her chin, pried her mouth open, and handed the ginger soup to her. He coaxed her in a hoarse voice, "good girl, open your mouth." Because of the ginger soup she swallowed all of a sudden, Maine coughed and her face turned red. Jimmy wiped her mouth and stroked her hair with his big hand, as if he was praising a child who took medicine obediently. "Good girl." The little girl was choked again. Jimmy comforted her. When Yan went out, Karla had been pacing anxiously outside the door. As soon as she saw Yan come out, she grabbed Yan's hand and asked anxiously, "Yan, how is Maine?" "Mrs. Lincoln is fine now. Mr. Lincoln will take good care of her. It's rare for you to care about Mrs. Lincoln so much, Karla. But, don't worry. You are tired. Go and have a rest." Karla let go of her hand and pursed her lips. She didn't know what to say. She just took a look at the door of the bedroom and felt extremely sad. If she hadn't been so anxious, Jolie wouldn't have fallen into the water. Maine had been in a coma for a long time, but Jimmy didn't do anything. He held the little girl tightly in his arms. Her soft body clung to him, as if they were no longer separated. In the middle of the night, Jimmy also fell asleep. The little girl felt sore all over her body and her stomach was growling. She shook Jimmy's arm weakly and said, "Jimmy... Jimmy..." Jimmy was waken up by the slight movement and voice. His black eyes met hers. "What's wrong?" Maine held his hand and pressed it on her belly. "I'm hungry. I'm so hungry." Jimmy was even a little excited. In the dark, he stared at her watery eyes and said, "honey, tell me, what do you want to eat? Porridge or noodles?" "I want to eat minced pork congee with preserved egg." He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. "Wait for half an hour? I'll bring you some bread first." Maine frowned, but still nodded. At this time, the servants all fell asleep. Jimmy personally cooked porridge with minced pork and preserved egg for his wife. Maine leaned against the bed and took a few bites of the bread. She couldn't eat any more, so she threw it aside and drank the milk. She was waiting for Jimmy's congee with minced pork and preserved egg. About ten minutes later, she drank up the warm milk in the glass and leaned against the bed for a while. Then she couldn't help but fall asleep. She lifted the quilt, got out of bed and ran downstairs to the kitchen. "Jimmy? Jimmy?" The warm yellow soft light in the kitchen was only on the counter. The surroundings were dim. Porridge was boiling in the high-pressure pot, making sizzling sounds. Jimmy suddenly heard a small voice. He listened carefully and found that it was his wife calling him.
