My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 370 - I’m So Busy!

Leonard looked at Lawrence, who was staring at him warily and in horror. The police inspector clicked his tongue and ordered in disgust, "You turn around and I will treat the wound."

While speaking, Leonard had already rolled his two sleeves up. Her commanding tone gave Lawrence no room to protest.

Lawrence raised his eyebrows and put his hands on his hips. Her fear vanished as soon as she realized that Leonard had no intention of beating her up.

"Mr. Leonard, if I can't treat my patient's wounds, then why am I even here? Did you know that I had two more operations that I had put on hold for this patient? "Lawrence asked with a cold smile.

"It's your business." Leonard replied with an indifferent expression.

Lawrence was so angry he was at a loss for words, so he simply picked up the tray and thrust it at Leonard rudely. Lawrence didn't care if his movements made the contents of the iodophor bottle spill.

After Leonard picked up the tray, Lawrence turned around and began to speak, "Unbundle his clothes and see if the tissue around the wound is inflamed and punctured. Don't touch it directly with your dirty hands. First clean the wound with iodophore first."

Leonard just listened to Lawrence's words without bothering to reply. He raised his hand to remove Mellisa's clothes. But his hand was blocked!

Mellisa gripped Leonard's wrist tightly, not letting the man touch her. He shifted his gaze with a panicked expression. Mellisa didn't dare look Leonard's eyes, which must have been filled with impatience.

Leonard kept trying to get rid of Mellisa's hand without injuring her, but that woman was just as stubborn as Leonard. The two of them wrestled silently on the hospital bed, while Lawrence continued to stare at the white walls of the hospital like idiots. The doctor tapped his leg as he waited.

It seemed that two or three minutes had passed, but Leonard didn't say anything. Finally Lawrence couldn't help feeling anxious and asked, "How? Is the wound inflamed?"

"You come out first!"

Leonard's reply came in a harsh tone.

"…hah?" Lawrence suspected that he had heard Leonard's words wrong. Did this man really intend to expel her from his own patient room?

Lawrence wanted to turn around, but he held back after hesitating for a moment. Of course she didn't dare to go against Leonard head-on. Since the man became a policeman, his beatings have gotten more and more painful.

"Leonard, I really owe you. Don't call me next time if there's anything you need. I'm so busy!" Lawrence spat out those words full of anger.

He planned to leave the ward immediately and return to his pending job. However, his steps stopped when he heard a voice from behind him.

"Since you're so busy, you wouldn't mind if I added a little thing or two to your assignment, right? Help me run this hospital, Lawrence." Leonard said.

Lawrence took a deep breath. "Are you crazy?!" He struggled to keep his voice from screaming. "Only half a month to go before I finally pay off my gambling debt! Who wants to run your messy hospital ?! Are your subordinates so busy?"

"It's useless you protested. I've decided." Leonard replied stubbornly. "Tomorrow I'm going to Surabaya, so you need to supervise this hospital for me."

This time Lawrence said nothing more. He walked out of the ward and slammed the door shut. The doctor walked away stomping his foot and scolding anyone who passed him.

Lawrence didn't want to work as a doctor in this public hospital from the start. However he lost to Leonard in a drinking bet, and he was drawn here to become a free surgeon for three months.

Soon the bet will be paid off. He intends to hand over the hospital to management and re-open a private practice. But Leonard's words had messed up all of his plans.

That man really was shameless! Did you think Lawrence didn't know that his going to Surabaya had something to do with that woman in the hospital bed ?! There must be something between them! Whether Leonard had found the daughter-in-law for the Adler Family behind his back, or had he found physical comfort with this woman?

Even so, Leonard still couldn't ignore the Adler Family's rules! Thinking of this, Lawrence stood in the corridor and smiled happily. He has never been interested in working in a public office, and he plans to go to Surabaya tomorrow. Suddenly Lawrence wants to know if Leonard is just looking for something new and fresh or is he finding true love?

If the Adler Family found out about this, the atmosphere would become even more alive!

Outside the ward door, Lawrence grinned with a beating heart. Meanwhile inside the ward, Mellisa held the medical suit she was wearing with both hands, and refused to look Leonard with her eyes.

"Mellisa, let go of your hand and let me see your injury!" Even though Leonard was annoyed, he still tried to persuade Mellisa gently. His eyes looked very serious.

Mellisa blinked and shook her head again. "You don't need to look, the wound is fine."

"I won't know until I see it myself, will I?" Leonard replied smoothly.

Finally Mellisa had no choice but to back down. She squinted at Leonard's stubborn face, then she tightened the corners of her mouth, showing a hint of embarrassment.

If he is treated by a doctor, he will calm down. But Mellisa didn't want to let Leonard see the wound. He felt as if there was a feeling of shame mixed with panic that was eating away at him all the time.

Leonard stretched out his hand and finished rolling up his sleeves, then he placed the tray on the bedside table on the other side. Then Leonard leaned a little closer to Mellisa. He smiled faintly with a gentle gaze to calm her down.

"Mellisa." Call Leonard.

"What?" Mellisa replied curtly.

"Could it be that you don't want me to take care of your wound ... because you are shy?" Leonard asked in a sympathetic tone.

When she heard that question, Mellisa immediately frowned. She finally stopped fighting and untied the hospital gown. Mellisa prefers to answer Leonard's questions with practical action. How could someone who licked blood with the tip of a knife be ashamed!

Leonard immediately examined the wound on the woman's waist. As expected earlier, Mellisa's wound didn't open. But because of her previous strenuous activities, the wound still looked red and swollen.

Mellisa lay on the bed staring at the ceiling. His expression was blank, only the tightly clenched palms on the other side of his body showed his tension.

At this time, Leonard gently wiped the area that was sewn with iodophore. His expression was serious and his movements were very careful. The man always blew gently after wiping it, as if Leonard was afraid of hurting him.

This sensation was filled with an inexplicable feeling, like a warm current slowly flowing into Mellisa's heart. He felt itching all over his body, so he moved accidentally.

Leonard immediately stopped moving and looked at Mellisa with worry. "Does it hurt?"

Mellisa blinked and shook her head without speaking. After that, he didn't move at all again.

When the wound on Mellisa's waist was finished, Leonard put the cotton in her hand. He leaned forward to support Mellisa's shoulders. "Sit down, I'll check the wounds on your back."

Mellisa bit her lower lip with a doubtful expression, but she finally grabbed Leonard's arm with both hands. She let the man help her sit down.

Just when Mellisa was just taking off her hospital gown, the door to the room opened.
