Time seemed to have passed by in a blur, and Patricia finally cried herself out, having fully vented her emotions. Then she withdrew from his embrace, her head lowered in embarrassment as she wiped away the tears from her face.However, as soon as her hand touched her cheek, she instinctively gasped in pain. In the midst of her crying earlier, she hadn't noticed the pain.Now, she finally noticed the burning sensation on her face. Martin immediately released her hand and spoke gently, "Does your face hurt? Wait here, I'll go get you some ice. The doctor said applying ice can help relieve the pain."Patricia was afraid and held onto his hand, not wanting him to leave.Martin reassured her, patting her hand, "Don't worry, there's a security guard outside the door. No one will come in. I'll be back soon."Upon hearing that there was a security guard outside, Patricia finally let go of him.Martin rubbed her head, left the hospital room, and returned shortly with a few ice cubes wrapped
"Patricia..." Martin gently tapped her cheek, hoping to wake her up. But as soon as his hand touched her face, it recoiled from the heat."Your face is so hot, Patricia. Are you sick? Can you hear me...?" However, Patricia showed no response. Her lips were tightly pursed, as if she were scared and in pain, opening and closing without uttering a word.Recalling the doctor's words, Martin didn't dare to waste any more time and immediately called the duty doctor.The doctor hurriedly arrived with a nurse.Using an electronic thermometer, they pressed it against Patricia's forehead. There was a 'beep' sound, and the thermometer displayed a red warning sign, showing a temperature of 40°C.This temperature frightened Martin. "Why is it so high? Is her condition critical?"The doctor hurriedly reassured him, "Mr. Langley, please don't worry. I will take her for further examination to determine the cause of the fever. We need the examination results to assess her condition thoroughly."Sayin
At this moment, his mind was full of Patricia's injuries, focusing wholeheartedly. He gently and carefully wiped the sweat off her body and then helped her put on the patient gown.When switching to the hand with the IV, he carefully threaded the drip bag through her sleeve. After changing her clothes, he used a dry towel to wipe her damp hair.His movements were gentle and meticulous, treating her as if she were a delicate porcelain doll, afraid that any carelessness would cause her to shatter.After finishing everything, it was already close to 5 am.Although autumn had arrived, the sky was still bright early in the morning. The dawn slowly crept in through the balcony and fell upon Patricia's face through the window.Martin sat tiredly on the side, quietly gazing at her with a dazed expression.After the IV drip, Patricia's fever completely subsided, and the swelling on her face had also reduced. A faint hint of vitality returned to her pale face.Martin let out a relieved sigh, hi
The two didn't notice the unexpected guest's arrival. After finishing breakfast, Patricia took the initiative to clean up the dishes, but Martin held her back. "You're the patient, you should rest, I'll clean up."Patricia casually replied, "I'm fine."With an intentional stern face, Martin said in a deep voice, "Even if you're fine, I won't let a patient do the dishes."Helpless, Patricia withdrew her hand and realized belatedly that she had changed her clothes. She quickly looked towards Martin trembled and asked, "How did my clothes change?"As she spoke, she silently prayed in her heart, hoping that it was the nurse who changed them, not Martin.Unfortunately, her prayers went unanswered.Martin packed up the dishes while saying, "Due to your fever you were sweating a lot last night, and your clothes got fully soaked. The doctor said we needed to change your out of the wet clothes, so I helped with that."Patricia's face instantly turned red with embarrassment, feeling as if she w
Just as Patricia's high fever subsided and she didn't have the energy to argue with Debbie, Martin, too, was not willing to argue with her. For a moment, Debbie unexpectedly gained the upper hand.Manda, looking smugly at Patricia, treated her as if she were a defeated subordinate.At that moment, Charles walked in from outside! Seeing Debbie and Manda, he sweetly called out, "Auntie, Grandma."Debbie and Manda both froze, wearing a horrified expression as if they had seen a ghost.Charles tilted his head and innocently looked at them, saying, "Auntie, Grandma, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?"Debbie vigorously shook her head, trying hard to maintain her composure. She hypocritically patted his head and said, "Randy, you finally hugged Auntie again! Auntie is so happy. Ever since your Mommy came back, you haven't liked Auntie anymore. Auntie thought you didn't want me as long as your Mommy didn't want me!"With a smile o
Debbie was frozen in place.Manda realized something and her face started to look indescribable.Charles covered his nose with his left hand.With a disgusted look on her face, she fanned away the smell and deliberately exclaimed loudly, "How disgusting, Professor Brown, actually defecating in public." His voice instantly caught the attention of the patients and nurses walking around. This place was originally an observation room in the emergency department, with many patients and medical staff coming and going. With a single shout, everyone turned their gaze towards him. Soon after, they also caught a whiff of the unpleasant fecal odor. Their faces showed disgust as they retreated and distanced themselves from her, disbelief written all over their faces. Debbie felt ashamed, wishing she could dig a hole and hide. "Randy, just you wait. I won't let you get away with this." After throwing down these harsh words, she pushed the wheelchair and left. Unfortunately, because her pants w
Charles went to the doctor's office and found a computer monitor in the far corner facing the wall. With a mischievous smile on his face, he looked innocent and pure."Beautiful doctor, can I borrow your computer for a moment? I have an urgent matter."Randy had a prestigious reputation in the hospital, well-known by everyone. No one dared to offend him. Now, his sweet words and innocent smile made him look like a prince from a comic book.The doctor was fascinated, unable to think straight. Without saying a word, she immediately got up and gave him her seat."Sure, I'm done using it. You can go ahead!"Showing her high manners by not prying into others' privacy, the female doctor left the office, leaving the computer for him.Charles sat down immediately and quickly typed on the keyboard.As soon as he infiltrated, he discovered that this virus was actually the same virus he had sold for a high price not long ago.He finally understood why Luke couldn't completely remove it. The viru
Upon seeing Martin approach, Fannie's heart skipped a beat in shock.She hastily took the menu from the cashier and, at the last moment when Martin was getting closer, she pulled Randy to join the queue to buy pancakes.Martin's gaze inadvertently swept over them, and he suddenly noticed something. His pupils trembled, and he looked towards where Randy was, only to see two figures disappearing into the crowd.His brow unconsciously furrowed. He instinctively lifted his foot to go find them. But just as he took a step forward, a figure blocked his way.Jade purposely acted as if it was a chance encounter. "Martin, what are you doing here?"Recalling their unpleasant encounter at the amusement park, Martin's face slightly darkened. "This is a breakfast shop. Why do you think I would be here?"His sarcastic tone made Jade grit her teeth, and the smile on her face almost couldn't hold up.If she weren't afraid of him discovering Fannie and Charles, she truly wouldn't want to say a word to
