The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 1215

After showering and getting ready for bed, Darin stepped out of the bathroom and heard his phone vibrating on the sofa. He walked over, leaned down to pick it up, and glanced at the caller ID before answering. "Hello. What is it?"

Max's teasing voice came through the speaker. "The flowers are quite beautiful."

Darin sat down on the sofa. "You must have a lot of free time on your hands to call specifically to critique a photo."

"Just showing some concern for you," Max chuckled.

"You should focus all your concern on Felicia and stop meddling in other people's business," Darin shot back.

Max laughed softly, then shifted the conversation to work matters.

After hanging up, Darin opened his messaging app. He had a few private messages, including one from Colton. Darin had always maintained a reserved and aloof personality, and he did not have many close friends in their social circle; most of his connections were purely superficial. He replied to Colton's message and gave brief, perfunctory answers to the others. Sensing his usual distance, the others tactfully avoided probing further, merely asking him to share the good news when the time came. Darin simply replied with a concise okay.

The next morning, Darin woke up, got dressed, and ordered room service for breakfast. By the time the food arrived, there was still no sound coming from Savannah's room. He walked over and knocked on her door. "Savannah."

Silence. Worried that she might be sick, Darin turned the handle and pushed the door open, finding her still curled up in bed. He walked softly to the side of the bed, noting that she did not look visibly ill, just like she was sleeping in. Relieved, he turned to leave.

Just as he was about to close the door, Savannah's groggy voice called out, "Darin."

Darin paused, pushed the door open again, and stepped back inside. "Did I wake you?"

"My head is spinning," Savannah mumbled.

Darin immediately walked over, leaned down, and pressed the back of his hand against her forehead, then against his own. She was definitely running a fever. "I will have them bring up some fever medicine."
