“Heavens,” Audrey exclaimed. “Second Brother, you have a fever.”
No wonder Eric didn’t look good today.
Audrey suddenly felt a strong sense of guilt. She should have discovered Eric’s fever earlier.
“Second Brother, let me send you to the hospital,” Audrey said.
“No… home.” Eric lowered his eyelids.
“Alright… I’ll contact the family doctor for you.” Audrey started the car.
When they arrived at the house, Audrey ran out of the car and called out two of the servants, asking them to help Eric back to his room. “What’s wrong with Eric?” Anthea looked surprised. Audrey replied, “Second Brother has a fever.”
“Fever?” Anthea said in surprise. ‘Why so sudden?”
Soon, Anthea called the family doctor.
Audrey told Quinn about Eric’s fever, and Quinn instructed her to take good care of Eric.
At night, when Charlotte returned, she heard that Eric was sick. She asked
Audrey in private, “What did Second Brother do today?”
Audrey said, “Maybe he caught a cold while sleeping last night…”
Charlotte took a deep breath. “Why is he sick at this time…”
Audrey found it strange. “What do you mean?”
Charlotte quickly corrected herself. “No… I mean, I’m very worried about
Second Brother’s health.”
Audrey comforted her. “It’s fine. The doctor said that Second Brother’s fever will subside tomorrow. I’ve already applied for leave from Quinn on his behalf.” “Then tomorrow…” Charlotte couldn’t help but look at Audrey in puzzlement. Audrey shrugged. “I’ll definitely go to school to rehearse tomorrow.” Charlotte said, “I remember that tomorrow is the weekend, right?”
Audrey said, “That’s right. But it’s almost time for the school anniversary, so we have to rehearse this weekend.’
Charlotte was deep in thought.
The next day, Audrey stayed in bed until eight o’clock. When she drove to school, she realized that the rehearsal was about to begin.
“Honey, you’re a little late today,” Quinn teased. “Did you lose track of time because Eric took leave?”
Audrey smiled awkwardly. “Sir, your guess is really accurate.”
Quinn said, “We can rehearse for half a day today. We won’t be rehearsing in the afternoon. Everyone’s pretty tired these past few days. We’ll continue rehearsing next Monday.”
Audrey knew very well what Quinn was doing.
Eric had a fever yesterday. It was hard not to suspect that it was because of the intensity of the rehearsal recently.
In order to ensure that the other actors were in good condition, it was inevitable that Quinn would let everyone rest for two days.
Audrey couldn’t help but feel happy because she could look for Elena in the afternoon.
As Eric wasn’t present, the scenes regarding Romeo and Juliet were temporarily canceled. Audrey spent most of her time sitting below the stage and watching the other actors rehearse.
It wasn’t easy to wait until noon. Audrey wanted to drive away, but she didn’t expect Becky to call out to her from behind.
“Becky, what’s the matter?” Audrey turned around and asked curiously.
Becky looked hesitant. “Audrey… Senior Eric, is he sick?”
Quinn only told everyone that Eric had something on and took leave, but he didn’t explain in detail why.
Audrey looked at Becky in surprise before smiling. “My second brother had a fever last night, so he didn’t come to school to rehearse.”
“Ah… I see.” Becky first looked at Audrey in surprise before saying with a pained expression, “I didn’t expect Senior to be sick..”
Audrey thought that Becky would say something like “Can I visit Senior?” in the next second, but she didn’t expect her to express sincerely, “Then I hope Senior can recover soon.”
At that moment, Audrey had to admit that Becky was a person with a sense of boundaries. What she said and did was within what others could tolerate, and she definitely wouldn’t cause trouble for others.
“Ah, by the way, wait for me,” Becky said suddenly.
Audrey looked puzzled. Soon, Becky turned around and ran.
Audrey waited on the spot for ten minutes. Soon, she saw Becky running back with a large bouquet of carnations.
“Audrey, please pass it to Senior. By the way, I wish him a speedy recovery,” Becky said.
“Alright.” Audrey smiled as she reached out to take the bouquet of carnations.
“I’ll convey your intentions for you..”
