Edwin embraced me closely, pressing my body firmly against his chest. I leaned back slightly, attempting to create some space between us

"Have you finished crying?"

He raised my chin gently and studied my expression for a few moments.

"Hmm, but where has my beautiful bride gone? I don't recognize this ugly woman."

I found his harsh teasing quite annoying, but I suppressed my irritation since he's my only form of protection at the moment.

Despite this, I still didn't want him to see my swollen eyes or tear-stained face, so I lowered my head.

Of course, any attempt to hide my face was unsuccessful since his hold on my chin prevented any movement.

"Why are you so weak?" Edwin sighed while climbing out of bed with me in his arms.

Jostled by his abrupt movement, I quickly grabbed the front of his shirt to prevent myself from falling backwards.

When Edwin glanced down at my hands, I released his shirt, fearing that I may have angered him. Yet, he wrapped his strong arms around me, hugging me tightly.

After pulling the string to summon the servants, he headed toward the sofa.

"Yesterday, you suffered a psychological shock and collapsed. Today, you became so distressed and nearly collapsed again."

I lowered my head in silence at the scolding tone.

"You keep collapsing because your mind is weak. Next time, maybe I should dangle you from a window until you come to your senses."

His words were harsh, but judging by his expression, it seemed as if he was genuinely worried about me.

When I lifted my gaze, he had a sullen look on his face and furrowed brows.

"Do you understand?"

As soon as I nodded, he smiled contentedly.

"Now, let's eat, and then you can take your medicine."

"About that..."

'What medicine? Is there something wrong?'

Observing my uneasiness, Edwin responded with a calm expression.

"Due to the fact that you were sick yesterday, the doctor prescribed medication to help you get well."

My eyes widened in shock. I never thought he would call a doctor just because I collapsed.

In the original story, Edwin was always the one injuring people, never treating or caring for them. So, his current behavior was a bit strange to me.

Still, my heart fluttered as if someone was tickling my chest with a feather.

"Do you hate taking medicine? Edwin asked as he gently rubbed my forehead. "After all, my bride has a weak stomach."

While I didn't enjoy taking medicine, if there was a need, I wouldn't refuse.

For a moment, I hesitated in giving him an answer. A frown formed on my face as I pondered how to avoid offending him.

"Take it anyway. It will make me feel better since I had to witness my bride collapse."

Edwin tilted his head slightly with a cool gaze as I quickly nodded.

"Then, I'll feed you some chocolate once you've taken the medicine."
