The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2576

Matilda replied, "I just measured it. It was thirty-nine point two degrees Celsius. I already ate the fever medicine, but it seems like it hasn't taken effect yet."

Once Jacob heard the temperature, he felt as though his heart was being torn out. He proactively bent down and pressed his forehead against Matilda's forehead. After feeling it for a moment, he blurted out," Your forehead is indeed terribly hot. Why don't you go sit down on the sofa first, and I’ll get you a wet towel." 4

Matilda said in embarrassment, "I’m so sorry to trouble you, Jacob..."

Jacob said solemnly, "Why are you being so polite with me? Do you remember the time during university, when I was in my dormitory and had a fever which made me unable to attend class? You took the initiative to skip class and went over the wall to the boys' dormitory and took care of me for the entire day."

When Matilda heard this, her expression immediately became extremely shy.

The past that Jacob had mentioned, naturally, she remembered it in her heart.

Because at that time, it was far more than just Jacob

falling ill and getting a fever.

At that time, the two of them had been in love, but university students at that time were relatively simple. So, they had only held hands occasionally or given each other a gentle hug by the riverside when n o one else was there.

Apart from that, there was basically no further development. 3

However, that time when Jacob was seriously ill, Matilda had been genuinely worried. So, she had snuck into the boys' dormitory and taken care of him i n every way possible.

During that time, there were only two of them in the male dormitory. They were lovers in love, and suddenly, they were presented with such a good opportunity to be alone. Moreover, Matilda was there t o take care of Jacob. Naturally, the two of them could not avoid some close contact.

So, gradually, the atmosphere was heated up indefinitely.

Matilda was a woman after all. At this moment, she was naturally ashamed and couldn't help but recall the past. The unforgettable scenes that were in the depths of her memory unconsciously resurfaced in her mind.

However, she was too embarrassed to give any sort of positive response. After all, this kind of thing was indeed a little too ambiguous. 3

Jacob was actually holding some ulterior motives in his heart. He had deliberately brought up the past just to see Matilda's embarrassed expression.

This was because, in his opinion, the more embarrassed Matilda was, it proved that she still loved him deeply.

Seeing that Matilda was not talking, he forced a laugh and asked, "Matilda, why are you not talking? Did you forget the time when you went to the dormitory to take care of me? Would you like me to help you recall those memories carefully?"

Matilda was ashamed and anxious as she said hurriedly, "You... didn’t you say you wanted to get a wet towel for me? Hurry up..." 5
