You More Than Anything In The World

Chapter 1244 I Never Thought You Would Lie

“Do you feel any discomfort other than the itching?” Benjamin asked Tim softly.

Tim's breathing was rapid as he shook his head, saying, “It's really itchy!”

Benjamin frowned before raising his voice. “Why hasn't the medicine taken effect yet?”

The other doctors and nurses averted his gaze.

Kingsley glanced at those worry faces before consoling him. “It might take a while!”

“Useless!” Benjamin roared in anger.

Everyone in the emergency ward could only keep mum.

Shaun finally returned with the medicated ointment in a hurry. “Remove Tim's clothes.”

The doctors and nurses stepped forward, wanting to undress Tim, but when they saw the little boy lying in Benjamin's arms, they hesitated to approach.

Upon noticing that, Shaun flashed a faint grin. “Benjamin, do you want me to do it, or do you want to do it yourself?”

With a scowl, Benjamin looked at Shaun before warning him sternly. “You better treat him properly. Look at the rashes on his body!”

“I'll apply the medicine now. It'll make you feel much better,” said Shaun. “Benjamin, you should put him down so that I can apply the ointment without getting it on you.”

“Just get on with it!” snapped Benjamin, unable to tolerate any further delays.

Shaun's mouth twitched. Not only did Benjamin appreciate his reminder, but he even raised his voice at him.

“Do it right now!”

Without further delay, Shaun went up and removed Tim's shirt.

As everyone saw the little boy covered in red rashes, their hearts tightened with worry.

“Tim, don't scratch your body. It might break your skin!” Zachary immediately held Tim's hand, preventing him from scratching.

Benjamin gently rubbed Tim's body, firmly holding his hands.

“Zachary, sit aside for a moment and let him handle it,” Benjamin instructed Zachary, directing his stern gaze at Shaun.

The latter could only pretend not to notice Benjamin's disapproving look and began applying the ointment to Tim.

“Are you feeling better now?” Shaun asked Tim gently as he applied a thick layer of ointment to his body.

“Yeah, it cools me down a little...” Tim nodded.

“That's good. The itchiness is gone, isn't it?” Shaun coaxed with a smile as he continued to apply the ointment to other allergic areas on Tim's body.

Benjamin held Tim in his arms, not minding the ointment accidentally brushing against himself.

Right then, the phone in his pocket started vibrating.

While carrying Tim with one hand, he tried to fish his phone out of his pocket.

“Let me!” Zachary noticed and crouched beside Benjamin, retrieving the phone from his pocket. “It's Mommy!”

Benjamin's eyes flickered. She must have called to ask if I'd arrived.

“Put it on speaker,” Benjamin instructed.

Zachary swiped to answer the call, then held the phone close to Benjamin's ear.
