~~~~~~~~~~~Stefenie's P.o.V.~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That night, I fell sick with high fever. My temperature reached 39.6 degree Celsius and I was stuck in bed. Jordan insisted on looking after me, but his advisors and ministers sent a petition to request that he should stay away from me for a while in case he got affected by me. So I'm all alone in this room, lonely and sad. I didn't even feel sick because it was a long time since I had been down with a fever and I'd forgotten what's it like to be sick. I checked into my mail again. Sebastian had sent me another email:
HI STEFENIE,
I hate you. i doN't want to sEe you Ever again. steer clear of our way. i love anne because she's Damn betTer than yOu. ShE's richEr than You while yOu're a Useless piece of crap.
SEBASTIAN
Ha, he sent me a secret message again...
HI STEFENIE

SEBASTIAN
Which is (after arranging them): I NEED TO SEE YOU.
I like that he sets something challenging for me to solve. It occupied some of my time so I needn't spend my time staring up the ceiling, waiting till I succumbed to fatigue. I need to see you...This message repeated itself in my head without my permission reiteratedly. I felt the need to see him too.....
But for now, we both have to figure out how to meet without getting caught by anyone especially Anne.
