Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: High Fever

Carlo took Eve in his arms and brought her back to his house. Some of the house guards had already been assigned to contact a private doctor.

"Her body temperature is so hot." Carlo's hand felt how hot Eve's body was. He immediately laid the girl on the bed.

"It's hot." Eve's lips trembled, in a semi-conscious state she also felt pain throughout the body.

"Eve?" Carlo approached. Eve's face looked pale, her lips were dry and dark circles were increasingly visible in the eye area.

"What should I do? Why is the doctor taking so long, not like usual," she continued. Now Carlo was even more panicked. He actually paced back and forth waiting for the arrival of the doctor who had been contacted.

"Ah, I remember. Looks like I have to compress to bring down the heat in her body." Carlo rushed to the kitchen to get some cold water and a small towel. Soon after, he returned to where Eve was.

Carlo's big hands carefully placed the compress on Eve's forehead. He did it repeatedly, suddenly remembering that the compressing process was not only on the forehead.

"No, no, no. I can't possibly touch her armpits." He slightly glanced at Eve's armpits. But Carlo hurriedly averted his eyes. He actually misbehaved himself.

"But, I have to do this. Eve won't notice anyway," he continued. Then he gently placed the compressing towel on Eve's armpit.

Carlo tiptoed, he accidentally nudged the side of Eve's chest. His face was now red, he looked like a pervert who was taking advantage of the situation.

"Sorry sir, I came late." The doctor suddenly appeared. Carlo was certainly very surprised, reflexively he immediately threw the compressing towel on the floor. His face clearly showed that he was nervous and also misbehaving. Like someone who was caught stealing a pair of slippers.

The doctor was also surprised to see Carlo's reaction to suddenly throwing the compressing towel on the floor. He assumed that Carlo was angry with him for coming late.

"Mercy, sir. I will not repeat this tardiness again. I deserve to be punished...." The doctor knelt down, he bowed his head feeling guilty.

Carlo neutralized his nervousness, "It's not like that. I forgive you, and hurry up and check on this woman." Stepping away from Eve's bed. But his eyes still watched Eve from a distance.

The doctor got up, without wasting time he quickly checked Eve's condition and took some medical equipment.

"Oh my! Why is her body temperature so hot." The doctor was very surprised when he saw the temperature reading of 45 degrees Celsius. He even went so far as to confirm it with his hand.

"This can't be allowed. I need to put an IV in this woman immediately," he muttered. With deft hands, the doctor immediately injected the IV into Eve's hand area. It was easy, a few minutes passed the doctor was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Finally .... I hope this woman will wake up soon and hopefully her body temperature will drop." Glancing occasionally at Carlo who was still observing Eve's examination. The doctor then smiled, indicating that everything was fine.

"Take it easy, sir. This woman is already fine, maybe in a quarter of an hour she will wake up." While talking to Carlo, the doctor put the medical equipment back into his bag.

"What exactly happened? Why is her body temperature so hot." Carlo stared at the doctor, asking for an explanation with his forehead furrowed in curiosity.

Once again the doctor glanced at Eve, he shrugged his shoulders. "I can't be sure yet. But the initial guess is that this woman seems to be acutely dehydrated and also nutritionally deficient. It can be seen from the lips and face that look very dry."

Carlo soon realized that he had not offered Eve any food or drink. "Could she have been starving all night?" The doctor's words made Carlo feel even more guilty.

"But you can rest easy, sir. I've injected some fever-reducing medicine and also some vitamins." The doctor smiled, took his cell phone and called one of the nurses to come to Carlo's house immediately.

"I sent my trusted nurse to take care of this woman. You can entrust her to that nurse," he continued. Then said goodbye to continue his work at the hospital, because there were several operations that needed to be handled immediately.

Carlo nodded, he looked at the doctor's back who was getting farther away. "What have I done. I almost killed my own future wife," Carlo muttered with regret.

"Future wife? Ah, it's not just a contract marriage." Carli quickly came to his senses. He then walked over to Eve's bed. Carlo had also arranged for some house servants to serve Eve.

"Is my decision to contract marriage with Eve correct? But what about Lucy, they are best friends. I shouldn't be selfish, but I don't want to marry Lucy either. Her parents are nothing more than medusa!" Carlo suddenly clenched his fists. He had already investigated Lucy's true family background, but his own family refused to believe Carlo.

"Excuse me, sir." A woman in a nurse's outfit arrived at the door. She politely bowed, after Carlo looked at her.

"Ah, you're a nurse?" Carlo's face was somewhat surprised by the nurse's arrival. He hurriedly hid it by making small talk. The woman hurriedly nodded, her face still downcast and she didn't dare to look at Carlo.

"Alright. I entrust this woman to you." Glancing at Eve, Carlo quickly moved away from the bed. His big steps headed towards the door where the nurse was still standing with her face bowed in respect.

Carlo's towering body stopped in front of the nurse. It was clear that the nurse was currently trembling and frightened. She had never before come face to face with Carlo, the CEO of Multi Corp who turned out to be a werewolf.

"You know what you have to do, don't you? Take good care of my woman. If anything bad happens, I won't hesitate to take your life." His towering body slightly bent, he whispered in the nurse's ear with a cold and cruel voice.

"Fa .... Fine, sir." The nurse's intonation was clearly nervous. She even stuttered, barely able to answer Carlo's words.

With a haughty and cold face, Carlo stepped out of Eve's room. The man was back to his usual self, the cold-faced Pack leader and also cruel. He hated it when others looked down on him and felt helpless.

Carlo felt his pants pocket vibrate, he quickly took out his cell phone. "What's wrong?" Carlo's stern voice indicated he didn't like small talk.

"The Pack is in danger. A wild werewolf gang from the North is attacking." The voice on the other side sounded panicked. Carlo immediately understood, he immediately turned off the call and immediately growled angrily.

"Damn it! This must be Darkmoon's doing." Carlo with his big steps, he immediately went to his parked car and immediately towards his parents' house.
