My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Ernest raised his eyebrows. Looking at Florence in front of him, he stared at her back deeply and meaningfully.

The nurse had been pulled away all of a sudden. Immediately, she explained, “Excuse me, Ma’am. The doctor needs to check Mr. Hawkins’s wounds. Since his arms were injured, he couldn’t take off his clothes, so I’m helping him.”

Her explanation made sense. Upon hearing it, Florence was embarrassed.

She hesitated for a moment, still standing in front of Ernest. She looked up at the doctor and asked, “Must he be stripped?”

The doctor felt that it was extremely difficult to check up on Mr. Hawkins this morning. He had encountered so many difficulties, and now he turned to do thing warily.

Immediately, he nodded and explained, “Yes, Ms. Fraser. He must take off his clothes so that I could check him up. We can’t delay the checkup since Mr. Hawkins was injured quite seriously.”

Inwardly, he prayed that Ms. Fraser would not stop him again. Otherwise, as the attending doctor, he might lose his job soon.

Florence frowned. She knew that the check-up on Ernest couldn’t be delayed for sure, and he must be checked as planned. However, taking a glance at all the female nurses in the ward, she had a migraine. She didn’t feel comfortable at all.

After hesitating for a moment, she asked, “Are there any male nurses?”

“Puff--”

A burst of laughter that was failed to be suppressed sounded out at the door of the ward.

Timothy looked at Florence with a teasing face and said with a smile, “Ms. Fraser, are you jealous?”

Florence blushed right away.

In a hurry, she retorted, “Of course not! It’s not like what you think.” Although her voice was loud, she didn’t sound so confident when denying it.

Behind Florence, Ernest couldn’t see her face, but he was staring at her, his eyes darkened. A shiny light flashed in his eyes.

Under the crowd’s gazes, Florence felt so embarrassed. She wished that she could vanish in front of them immediately.

“I just don’t think it’s so convenient to let the female nurses check him up,” she insisted, her voice becoming lower and lower.

She felt that she had made herself a fool.

The doctor said, “We do have male nurses, but not many of them. They might not be enough...”
