My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 322: Why Are You So Hot?

“I am actually being serious here.”

Florence declared as she went on to unbutton Ernest’s patient gown. The serious look on her face seemed to tell everyone that she was ready to take over all of the doctor’s jobs from this point on.

Ernest felt a transformation happened on his facial expression. He didn’t want Florence to get spooked by his injury in the first place, which was why he didn’t want her to see it. Despite that, if she was going to apply medication directly for him, that would mean she would be scrutinizing his wound carefully.

With a helplessness welling up within him, Ernest reached out and grabbed Florence’s wrist.

“You just stand by there. The doctors would do it for me.”

Seeing that Ernest finally complied to getting treatment, Florence staggered backwards to allow space for the doctors.

She then announced, “I will do some chores around here.”

Ernest said with a helpless tone, “You don’t need to do that. Just sit down.”

“But I want to do something for you.”

Florence stood beside the medical rack as she passed all the essential items needed by the doctor to him in a frenzy.

With how she was handling those things, it felt like she was familiar with the procedures here.

A faint glow flashed in Ernest’s eyes. It was not like he didn’t realize Florence’s devotion to him, he just knew why Florence had been being so hardworking.

During this period of time, Ernest always used an excuse ordering Florence to buy breakfast in his attempt to avoid letting her lay eyes on his injury. Florence would happily go along with it.

However, she was just standing not far away today, which gave her the chance to get a good look of his injuries.

At the sight of his injuries, her heart shrank very fast.

She had prepared herself mentally many times, but when the time arrived for her to see them with her own eyes, Florence couldn’t help feeling a jabbing pain in her heart. Tears seemed to be threatening to break free of her eyes.

There was no way Ernest could feign being not in any sort of pain with that kind of grave injuries on him.

Ernest studied Florence’s expression and his brows knitted slightly. His low voice came, “If you are having a hard time watching it, then don’t look.”

“I—I am fine. I have no problem with it.”
