The Reunion After Seven Years

The nurse took her time to explain with details what the injection consisted of and how Nicole would feel afterwards. Although it was unusual that a nurse took plenty of time to clarify a procedure to a patient, the medical assistance had to be impeccable since she noticed how much Kerr cared about Nicole.

She listened carefully to the nurse, but she was hesitant. "I appreciate what you're doing nurse, but I still think that I don't need the injection. I feel fine."

She raised her hands in frustration and avoided the eye contact with the nurse.

Kerr had meticulously watched every move and facial gestures of Nicole as he was standing by her side. He could easily tell that she was quite terrified of the injection.

"You're not a big fan of injections, are you?"

Her face instantly turned red after hearing what he had said.

She had always hated when needles were too close to her skin. It was a natural reaction of her to reject any injection of any kind. However, she felt that she needed to demonstrate that there was no fear towards the injection though she didn't want it.

Within her ordinary medical knowledge that she had learned over the years by reading articles, she tried her very best to convince them that injections had more negative than positive aspects.

"Injections are worth nothing. They just weaken your body and do no good for your health at all. I refuse to have it."

Unfortunately, her arguments were useless.

The nurse behaved calm and patient towards Nicole with a friendly smile on her face the whole time.

"You need to stay steady, Miss Ning. The doctors here will make sure that no negative side effects arise and put your health in danger."

The doctors knew that Nicole had to be treated in the best and most professional way possible since Kerr brought her. Even though the hospital was under the control of the Gu family, he would hardly ever show up there unless it was for an important occasion.

Kerr moved from the position where he was and held Nicole's hand to relieve her.

"I won't leave you until this is over. You don't have to be afraid."

And suddenly, he grabbed her left wrist strongly so the nurse could locate the vein to inject the dose. He even put a pillow in front of her to cover her eyes. "No! This can't be happening without my permission! It's my body!"

She felt quite desperate as she tried to escape, but Kerr never let go of her wrist. Her strength was no match against his.
