"Something helps him ease the cold!" Bonnie was stunned when the maid had no idea about making herbal cuisines. She then described to the maid a traditional recipe that could help Sebastian improve the syndrome of his cold. But the maid shook her head in puzzlement. "Mr. Grant didn't tell me to do it."
Specifically, the maid knew nothing about Sebastian's health condition. So, was he going to will the disease away? But if she didn't take his quilt last night, Sebastian wouldn't have caught a cold. Out of guilt, she decided to make the soup by herself.
It was one in the afternoon after she finished making the soup. She must clock in at 2 p.m. "I'm getting late for work. Please bring this to Sebastian. I'm leaving now." Bonnie packed some soups for herself and rushed to the office.
She ran into several co-workers when she reached the lobby.
"What's this, Annie?" Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Some kind of herbal soup. I made it myself and it's good for the throat."
"Gosh, you are so sweet. You made it for William, right?" Co-worker A made fun of her.
Before Bonnie could explain, co-worker B chimed in, "You don't say! William helped her out last night. His throat must be burning!"
What? Bonnie recalled carefully what had happened last night. Last night, she had been making up excuses to avoid drinking. At first, her colleagues kept pushing her to drink until William came over and said something to them. Then they directed to William instead. Bonnie just thought that William was popular around female colleagues, but it wasn't the whole story. She also remembered that William helped her ask for a leave today.
Now, she felt terribly sorry for misunderstanding William.
"I am going out." Bonnie ran out with the thermos in her hand.
She then was back in around half an hour and went straight to William's office.
"Thanks, William. The colleagues told me that you helped me out last night and it almost got your throat burned. Here!" Bonnie passed the thermos to William.
William's gaze went soft. But he was a bit surprised when he opened it, "What's this?"
It had some Chinese olive hydromel in it. I bought this for you. Remember to drink it warm."
Bonnie decided to save the soup she made for herself. She did so because she didn't want to cause any misunderstandings.
"Annie," William was kind of sad, "do you really have to draw the line with me?"
