Chapter 131: Out in the Cold

**Olivia POV

The morning after Ellis took me to the new playroom, I woke up feeling tired and a little achy. Throughout the day I began to feel a little sick and stayed in bed, hoping that Ellis would come soon and take care of me.

I woke in the dark of night to find that he had not come. I felt sad and lonely. I told myself that he must have been very busy with work and he would certainly make sure to come and see me the following day.

When I was able to get out of bed, I went to find his driver.

“Can you run to the store for some medicine?” I asked.

“Of course,” he answered.

“And, please tell Mr. Peterson that I am not feeling well.”

The driver gave me a hesitant nod but I was too tired to question it. I went back to the room to lie down and fell asleep again.

I took the medicine when I woke up. It helped push away the growing body aches and I was able to eat a little bit of the chef’s food that night before bed.
