Chapter 1524 Julian’s Having a Fever
Oh, my God! Julian’s having a fever! To confirm it again, Jessie bent down and touched her forehead to his.
Just then, the man opened his eyes. When he saw the lady holding his face in her hands and pressing her forehead to his, a dazzling light instantly came to his eyes, and his lips curled into a smile. “Are you trying to take advantage of me?”
Jessie replied, “What are you talking about? Don’t you know that you’re having a fever?” She felt somewhat put out. To think this guy doesn’t even know to go to the hospital when he’s ill! How worrying!
Julian did realize that his body was somewhat feverish, but he didn’t feel unwell at all. He sat up and stroked his forehead with his hand. “Is it hot?”
“It burned my hand,” Jessie said before quickly stepping out of the RV. She said to Bethany, “Young Master Julian is having a fever. Hurry and take him to the hospital.”
“What? No way! Hurry and start the car, Charles! We’ve got to rush Young Master Julian to the hospital!”
Charles, the chauffeur, immediately started the nanny van nearby, whereas Jessie got back into the RV and got the man inside out of it to accompany him to the hospital.
Bethany was beating herself up. To think I was unaware that my boss was having a fever! At this moment, she looked like a cat on a hot tin roof. “Sorry, Young Master Julian. We’ve neglected our duty by not realizing that you’re ill. Not only that, but we’ve let you sleep in there for such a long time.”
However, Julian refused to go to the hospital. “I’m not going to the hospital. Just get some aspirin for me instead.”
Jessie wouldn’t let him treat his illness in such a way, though. Locking her arm in his, she urged, “Let’s go to the hospital. I’m going with you.”
“I’m just having a fever. It’ll go down once I take some aspirin,” Julian insisted rather stubbornly. He hadn’t been ill for years, so he disliked the idea of going to the hospital.
Bethany quickly persuaded him as well. “Young Master Julian, your condition can’t wait! Let’s go to the hospital, shall we?”
Jessie was already dragging the man into the nanny van by force. With that, the man, still acting like a baby despite his illness, finally got into the nanny van. After Bethany called Harper—a male assistant—over, they got into the nanny van and headed straight for the film studio hospital.
Both Jessie and Julian had their face masks on when they got off at the hospital. Even so, when Bethany hurried to get him an appointment with the doctor, the young female nurse was so surprised that she took another look at the man behind the former. Oh, God! Julian Gilmore is actually here at the hospital!
The moment Julian and others left, a female fan suddenly cried, “Ah! It’s Julian!”
Instantly, some young fans ran after him in the lobby. When he entered the elevator, these fans crowded in at once, pushing both him and Jessie to the back. At the sight of this, Bethany and Harper immediately urged, “Give us some space, please!”
Upon reaching the doctor’s office, Julian sat down for a checkup. Seeing that his body temperature reached as high as about 104 Fahrenheit, Jessie got so shocked that her heart nearly jumped out of her chest. To think this guy refused to come to the hospital despite having such a high fever!
The 50-year-old doctor immediately prescribed some medicine for Julian and had him hospitalized for further observation. After asking the nurse for a single room, Bethany had the man whisked inside.
Julian’s fans milled around outside the room, but they were sensible enough to let him have some privacy. At this moment, however, they also noticed that the young lady accompanying him was none other than Jessie Silverstein, the rising starlet. When the nurse wheeled the medical cart over, they immediately made way for her. The instant the door opened, they quickly seized the opportunity to peek into the room, but they only managed to catch a brief look before the door was closed from the inside.
The nurse, who was also one of Julian’s fans, was very excited as she put him on a drip. At this moment, she saw Jessie taking off her face mask next to them. Looking closely at the only actress who’d been rumored to be in a relationship with Julian, she was surprised to find that the former was gentle and kind. Furthermore, she saw a kind of long-lost natural beauty in her.
Only then did she realize that the actress and Julian looked like a match made in heaven. Before inserting the needle, she said in advance, “Mr. Gilmore, this is going to hurt a little. Please bear with it for a moment.”
