Lucas was only pushed out of the emergency room after two hours. Sitting in a wheelchair, his legs were plastered, and his head was bandaged. It seemed like his injuries were too serious. "How is he, doctor?" Cordy immediately asked. "His right leg is broken, and we've inserted a metal rod in it to stabilize it for two to three months. If there's no problem, he needs to rest for another three months after we take it out. He'll recover by then." "Will he become a lame person?" Cordy asked cautiously. Lucas then looked up at her. Did she want him to become a lame person?"Don't worry. He won't." The doctor sounded amiable before he continued, "But because there's a slight impact on his head, we suggest letting him stay for observation for a night. If he's fine tomorrow, he can be discharged from the hospital." "Okay, thank you, doctor." Cordy thanked the doctor. She finally heaved a huge sigh of relief inwardly. His injuries had something to do with her, no matter wh
"Thank you, Mommy."Richard was never a person who was good at showing emotions, but he did not hide it at that time. Did he see Lucas as his daddy or a substitute? Cordy did not want to have conflicting emotions about it.Facing Lucas, she said, "If you're not fine with it…" "I'm fine with it." Lucas cut her off. "After all, there's another bed in this ward. Richard and I can sleep in that bed," Cordy suggested. The hospital beds in the VVIP ward were extraordinarily large. "Hmm." "What do you need now?" Cordy questioned. Since she decided to stay, she should take care of the patient. Regardless, she should be grateful to him, given what happened that night. She turned around to leave just now because she had promised Nana back then. She decided to stay now because of Richard. Of course, Richard was more important than Nana. "Nothing," Lucas answered. "Well, I'll let Dicky have a bath first. He's still growing, so he needs to sleep early." "Just do as y
"Mommy, I'm done. Do you want to shower?" "Hmm." Cordy nodded and ordered, "Go to bed early." "Okay." After that, Cordy walked into the bathroom. On the other hand, Richard behaved well and slept on the accompanying bed beside Lucas. Covering himself with the blanket, he turned to look at Lucas. At that time, Lucas had turned his attention back to his phone again. However, he had clicked on a website for half an hour, but he did not scroll to another page. Other than the fact that their arrivals had made him absent-minded, which he could not pinpoint, he could see many baffling things appearing in his head. Even being hospitalized felt like deja vu. However, he could recall nothing even after he dwelled on it carefully. He had lost his memory three years ago. He remembered nothing after he woke up because of a car accident. Consequently, he found not a tinge of familiarity toward his so-called relatives and friends. They were just strangers to him. That kind o
"If that's the case, you should get to know your true self earlier." Richard did not wait for Lucas' reply before he suggested again, "It's because you'll be filled with more regrets if you're more hesitant now." "I won't regret it." Lucas sounded firm. "Why are you still so stubborn?" Richard behaved like an adult. "Aren't you worried that my mommy will give you up?" "I originally had nothing to do with your mommy." "But you can't forget about my mommy. If not, why did you risk your life to save her?" Lucas inevitably swallowed slightly and answered, "Your mommy got into danger because of me. I was just returning the favor." "That's just your excuse." Richard sounded certain. "You're just a ten-year-old kid. What do you know?" Lucas pretended to say at ease, "Kids should study more and worry about less." "Hmph!" Richard became slightly angry because of Lucas' words. "I won't help you if you regret it." However, Lucas did not take it to heart. Lying under the bed, R
It if was not for the fact that she suddenly made a noise, he would not have slipped and fallen. He nearly thought that he might die the moment he slipped and fell. Now, she was even putting up such an innocent look. Who was she trying to annoy? "Do you need my help?" Cordy tried to reconfirm it with him. "What do you think?" Lucas gnashed his teeth. He was in such a sorry state now. Did she want him to give up his dignity and crawl back up? Cordy was struck speechless. He sounded so righteous when he had a favor to ask. She got up, and carefully, she tried her best not to wake Richard up. She then walked to Lucas and worked hard to help him straighten the wheelchair. After that, she tried her best to help him up. He was so heavy. Were all men like that? He appeared slim, but he was as heavy as lead when he leaned on her. John was like that too... When she thought of John, excruciating pain hit her. Suddenly, she recalled the scene when John was hospital
"It hurts so badly. I can't get up." Lucas sounded quite rude. Cordy took a deep breath and advised herself inwardly and repeatedly that Lucas was hurt because of her. She was too weak just now that she made him fall again. Hence, she decided not to be angry at him. She squatted and helped him up again. With her help, he almost leaned all his weight on her. She seriously doubted if he was purposely trying to take revenge on him. She finally helped him stand beside the toilet bowl. "Do you need me to take off your pants for you too?" "Cordy Sachs, you’re shameless!" Lucas became agitated. "Why are you so agitated all of a sudden?" Cordy was shocked by his sudden loudness. So, she flared up in a rage. "Did I see through your thoughts?" "Get out!" Lucas lashed out. Surprisingly, he did not have a comeback. Of course, Cordy did not notice that much either. She would always argue with him. Besides, she had never met a person who rendered her so helpless and speechl
After she confirmed that he had put on his pants, she opened the door and walked in. Lucas was standing motionlessly in front of the toilet bowl in the washroom. He might have learned his lesson from his fall just now, so he did not dare to move impulsively now. Cordy gave him a hand, and he then leaned onto her without a tinge of embarrassment. He made use of her righteously. She then helped him into the wheelchair and pushed him into the ward. After exhausting herself again, she managed to help him to bed, and she was about to return to her bed to rest. However, Lucas stopped her out of the blue and called out, "Cordy." "Is there anything else?" "I suddenly feel like wiping my body." Cordy was at a loss for words. She wanted to ensure that she had not heard him wrongly. "You and Dicky smell so good from your bath, but I smell like nothing but sweat. I feel so uncomfortable, but I can't shower. Can't I wipe my body too?" Lucas became displeased by her stare, so h
The air seemed to turn warmer, and they could almost hear each other's heartbeats in the silence.Cordy had no idea why her heart started beating faster.Wasn't she just taking care of a patient?Wasn't he just a patient with a slightly better physique? She tried her best not to let her bare hands come into contact with Lucas' body.After wiping his torso, she went on to wipe his legs.After a long while, Cordy was finally done.She looked up and saw Lucas' face, which was slightly flushed.Right from the start, she focused on her hand movements and put aside all distractions. She did not expect to see the embarrassed look on Lucas' face as he lay down and let her wipe him down.Cordy was stunned for a moment.Was he pretending to be innocent or…Her eyes shifted awkwardly, and she looked everywhere except at him.She said, "I'm done wiping you down. I'm sure you don't need me to wipe certain areas, right?!"Lucas' face flushed a deeper red.He did not know why he sudden
