Chapter 2779
Kyson was briefly lost in her allure, his drowsy mind blurring the lines of reality.
All he perceived was Lucinda, a vision without Nathan at her side.
Youre awake? Time for your medicine.
The previous doses were to detoxify your system.
This one is to fortify your recovery, Gwen announced, her voice pulling him back to the present.
In that moment, Kyson realized his errorit wasnt Lucinda but Gwen.
He had mistaken her for Lucinda once again.
Perhaps it was because their recent interactions had so vividly intertwined her with his memories that even his dreams echoed those years he had spent with Lucinda.
Thank you. Sorry, I was out of line just now.
Kyson abruptly sat up, swiftly regaining his courteous demeanor, and consumed the medicinal soup in a single swift motion.
Its okay, no harm done, Gwen responded, her smile warm and comforting.
Thank you.
My recovery is all due to your care.
If you ever need help, Im here to lend a hand.
After the past few days spent in close company, Gwen had warmed up to Kyson, now welcoming his offers of assistance without hesitation.
Well, we do need more hands for the farming.
If youre up for some strenuous work, come along with me.
Their village was nestled in the southernmost part of the country, under a perpetually blazing sun.Now was the optimal time for planting rice.
Kyson agreed without hesitation, viewing it as yet another chance to be close to her, perhaps because of her striking resemblance to Lucinda.noveldrama
Equipped with their farming tools, they embarked on their task.
Yet, when Kyson faced the vast expanse of fields that lay before them, he was visibly taken aback.
ALL of this… needs to be tilled? Gwen chuckled, already swinging her hoe.
She pointed toward a shaded area not far off.
Youve just recovered.
Why dont you rest over there? Ill call you once I finish this patch, and then we can head back. Kyson scowled but reluctantly picked up a hoe and started toiling beside her.
The scalding sun seared every inch of his skin, causing sweat to bead and run down his forehead.
Before long, he felt a stinging pain from the blisters forming on his hands.
He was unaccustomed to farm work, and the blisters were an unavoidable torment.
Despite being a woman, Gwen moved through the tasks with remarkable speed, quickly outstripping Kyson.
Seeing him falter, she advised, Kyson, if youre feeling exhausted, you might want to head back.
Its far too hot out here for you.
Kyson firmly shook his head.
Was he, a grown man, really going to let himself be outdone by a woman?
What do you think?
