Bella Scott's face changed slightly, and she coughed loudly a few times, trying to cover up the sounds coming from under her desk.
"Why are you coughing? Do you have a cold?" Edward Anderson didn't hear any noises from under the desk, but seeing Bella coughing, he hurriedly reached out to touch her forehead.
Bella slapped his hand away: "I'm fine, don't jinx me, just get out of here."
Cindy was hidden in such a small and cramped space, it must be uncomfortable. If Edward didn't leave soon, she would be squashed flat.
"You were clearly coughing just now. If it's not a cold, what is it?!" Edward pulled Bella closer again and touched her forehead. She didn't seem to have a fever, but wasn't coughing a prelude to a cold?
"I just coughed once because I was thirsty." Bella found a glass of water and drank it all in one gulp: "There, I'm fine now."
So could he get out of her office now?
