Chapter 323
Standing Before Love
The man already lowered his head as he accurately sealed Myraâs lips with his thin lips.
âUm⦠Tonyâ¦â She struggled for a moment, but each time she moved, the man would let out a soft hiss. She didnât know whether she had touched his wounds, so she didnât dare to move a muscle.
However, her obedience only fueled the flame inside the man.
The wardâs washroom wasnât gigantic, so soon after, the air inside started to boil as waves of heat impacted Myra.
Tony could see that her eyes had now turned completely red compared to her serious look earlier.
âMyra, can you sit here?â he murmured with a deep voice while kissing her.
His voice was charmingly husky, causing her body to tremble slightly. As she opened her eyes and saw the gentle yet undefiable eyes of the man in front of her, she couldnât help but listen to him and sit on the washstand.
When she wanted to open her mouth and say something, the man approached her with his thin lips again so that she wouldnât have the chance to speak.
â¦
As time passed, Myra suddenly realized that Tonyâs disgusted looks and persistence to take a bath was all for this purpose! It has only been three days, but he canât help it anymore. She didnât know whether to laugh or cry.
Her gaze was suddenly attracted by some of the wounds on his body.
The atmosphere was too intense earlier and her mind was in a daze, so she couldnât see Tonyâs condition clearly. At that moment, the wounds on his body were torn apart and it clearly showed up in front of her.
âHow did this happen?!â Myra screamed. Meanwhile, the wounds that were starting to scab were now torn apart, causing his blood to spill. Other than that, she also saw his hand, which could slightly move around, but the white bandage on his arm was now soaked in blood.
âIâll go and call the doctor.â She got off the washstand and was about to walk out of the room, but the man pulled her hand before tidying up her clothes resignedly.
Then, he furrowed his brows as he looked at the wounds on his body. âIâm fine. Itâs just a small wound.
It wonât matter.â
âWhat do you mean itâs just a small wound?â Myra raised her voice while looking at the man in front of her with disapproval. After a moment of hesitation, she made up her mind and said to him, âIf your body is easily aroused by me, why donât we find a nurse to look after you?â
Tonyâs expression immediately darkened. âNever!â
âThen, you must take good care of your wounds!â Myra warned. âTony, before your wound has healed, I forbid you to touch me!â Seeing his face grow darker and darker, she quickly tidied herself before walking outside. âIâll call the doctor to come and change your bandage and medicine.â
Soon, the doctor arrived at the ward.
When he saw the open wounds on his body and arms, he was left speechless. While furrowing his brows, he asked the two of them, âWhat did the two of you do that tore his wounds apart so severely?
Even though the patientâs wounds arenât that serious, he still needs to rest more so that he can recover as soon as possible. If you continue to tear the wounds open, it wonât be nice when it starts to become inflamed.â
A guilty Myra kept nodding her head. âIt wonât happen again. Iâll advise him to take a rest and not move around.â
âMiss Stark⦠Cough⦠In times like this, there are some urges that we need to resist.â The doctor seemed to understand something as he advised her implicitly.
Her face constantly flushed even more and she didnât know what to say at that moment, so she could only vigorously nod her head.
After sending the doctor away, Myra glared at Tony in embarrassment while biting her lips. âTonight, Shawn will be here to take care of you because Iâm meeting with Estelle.â
Upon listening to her, he was startled as he didnât know whether to laugh or cry in his heart. Just as he was about to feign discomfort so that she would stay, she turned immediately and began to pack up her stuff. âI want you to stay here and reflect on what you just did. Donât tell me now that your wounds are really painful. Where was the pain when you did that to me just now?!â
Instantly, Tony choked on his words. While waiting for Shawn to arrive, his eyes never left Myra while she packed her stuff, but sadly, she wasnât moved at all.
When Shawn came to take over from her, she let out a sigh of relief the moment she walked out of Tonyâs ward. Tony didnât know how strong of an effect he had on her and she knew clearly that she couldnât reject him, so without any choice, she asked Shawn to come and take care of him instead. If the same thing happens again this evening, I probably wonât be able to push him away.
Looking at the gloomy face of his little brother after entering the ward, Shawn couldnât help but raise his brows. Why does it seem like he doesnât welcome me here? Doesnât he know that we are still brothers?
â¦
In the evening, a nurse came to change Tonyâs medicine.
âMr. Hart, your previous nurse has taken maternity leave, so Iâll help you with your wounds from now on.â In her own words, the new nurse was still an intern, but she really was skillful as she was able to treat his wounds in quick succession. After changing his medicine and bandage, she said, âMr. Hart, you may not remember me, but we met before at Bradfort University.â
However, Tony didnât respond to her words at all. After treating his wound, the nurse left the ward.
The moment she exited the ward, she raised her head, revealing her face that was completely red. She seemed to still be able to feel his delicate muscles when she caressed the manâs chest with her hands earlier, which caused her heart to accelerate as if it was about to jump out of her mouth.
She couldnât help but remember the scene at Bradfort Universityâs gingko tree path that day where the man walked up toward her. Not only was he tall with handsome facial features, he was also calm and reserved with a pair of emotionless eyes. The aura around him was strong like he didnât care about anything else; yet, he was still charming.
At that time, she was definitely charmed by him, so a few of her roommates pushed her out toward him.
Hayley Boulanger was the top beauty of Bradfort Universityâs School of Nursing and she could even be deemed as the campus belle of the entire university.
