Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 272

Grace's fingertips pressed tentatively on his calves. "Does it hurt?"

"It hurts."

Grace felt anxious, thinking that his legs had gotten worse. "The condition here is pretty basic. I know you're a clean freak, but bear with it this time. Let's take off your clothes and let me massage your legs."

Just as she finished her words, she hurried to unbutton his shirt. However, she was shocked to see a large area of red rashes on his skin just after undoing one button. "What's with these red rashes?"

Ethan closed his eyes and leaned against the table beside him. He looked a bit dejected. "Maybe it's because I'm allergic to seafood."

Grace felt like the world was spinning. She couldn't believe that he would eat the shrimp that she had peeled for him when he was allergic to seafood. He didn't have just one either; he had all of it.

She threw his expensive suit aside and unbuttoned all of the buttons on his shirt. Beside his chest, there were also rashes on his back.

Grace's face was pale with fright. Seeing that Ethan was dozing off, she quickly patted his face. "Mr. Henderson, don't fall asleep. Are you having a fever right now?"

She raised her hand and tested the temperature on his forehead. It was so hot that she almost whipped her hand away.

She couldn't believe that Ethan had come to find her all by himself with a body that was in terrible condition. Holding back her anger, she grabbed onto his belt.

Ethan slowly opened his eyes, his temperament noticeably less imposing than usual. "What are you doing?"

"I'm taking your clothes off and then wiping your body with some warm water. After that, you need to rest in bed. Your clothes are wet right now, and you're going to make the bed wet if you lay on it like this. There's only one bed here."

Ethan's eyes flickered. He turned his head away after learning that there was only one bed available. Grace noticed that his ears were getting red and became a bit flustered herself.

"Mr. Henderson, pardon me."
