Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 1264
After Carter stood up, Anthea would have to bow slightly.
Adam was really standing too close
Without raising her head, Adam's breath still lingered in her nose.
She acted professional.
She placed the echoscope on Carter's body. After listening for a long while, she didn't replace anything unusual. She then reached out her hand and tapped on Carter's stomach, "Brother Carter, does it hurt here?" "It hurts a little!" Carter hummed.
"What about here?" Anthea looked serious and tapped another part of his stomach.
"It also hurts a little!" Carter continued humming.
After answering her, he would wink at her.
Adam was expressionless.
Anthea bent over and checked carefully again. She didn't replace anything unusual. It did not make sense. When she was considering whether she should ask Carter to go through further examination with more precise instruments, Carter suddenly said, "Anthea, it doesn't hurt now!" "It doesn't hurt anymore?" Anthea was surprised at the randomness of the pain.
Carter nodded and said in a low voice, "Oh! I know. Could it be the spicy strip I ate this morning that caused the stomachache?"
Anthea was speechless.
She sighed helplessly and said with a frown, "Brother Carter, your stomach is very fragile now, so you need to pay special attention to your diet!"
"I know, I know!" Carter grinned, revealing a row of white teeth, "Hehe, I'm too greedy to keep from eating that. The medicine you prescribed for me yesterday is still there. I'll take some pills later!" Anthea touched her forehead tiredly, "I'll arrange an operation for you tomorrow afternoon!"
"Okay! Thank you. Anthea!" Carter smiled.
After making sure he was fine, Anthea breathed a sigh of relief.
She put away the echoscope and was ready to stand straight.
She suddenly stumbled.
She had maintained the stance of stooping for a long time. Also, She wanted to keep her distance from Adam that she had been straining her body.
Her legs were numb that she did not stand firm and fell back.
Anthea's first reaction was to grab the bedside cabinet next to her, but someone was faster than her.
Adam had put his long arms around her waist.
Held by the tall figure, Anthea looked up and ran into his dark eyes.
Her breathing instantly became disordered.
His palm was pressed against her lower back. With the white cloak between them, she could feel the roughness of his hand.
Carter sat down on the hospital bed, shaking his legs and looking up at the suspended ceiling. On his face was an expression that said, "I'm air, you guys continue."
Adam kept the pose.
Anthea struggled, "I have stood firm, thank you!"
It was only then that Adam took his hand back.
Anthea put her hands into the white coat pocket and curled up. She calmly said, "Brother Carter, call me when you feel uncomfortable. I have a patient waiting for me. I'll go to work then!"
After she left the ward, Adam followed her.
Hearing the footsteps behind her, Anthea frowned and turned back, "What's the business?" "I was hoping to know more about Carter's surgery." Adam said.
Anthea could replace no more excuses to avoid him, so she explained seriously, "The serious part of gastric perforation is that the gastric juice will flow into the abdominal cavum, causing chemical or fungous peritonitis, which will be very dangerous!
"But fortunately, Brother Carter's was chronic perforation and would not cause adhesion or atrophy."
"So the conventional surgical treatment will do, and he will recover soon after the operation! Uncle Adam, you don't have to worry!"
Hearing the last sentence, Adam slightly narrowed his dark eyes.
Anthea also noticed it.
When he was at the nurse station yesterday, he also asked what she called him.
Anthea looked directly at him and said, "I think it's more appropriate to call you uncle! After all, we broke up six years ago. We have no relation more than uncle and niece!
"At that time, I was too young to understand anything, so I started such an absurd relationship with you. I have always regretted it! It would be too impolite to call you without honorific now!" "You think our situation is absurd?" Adam's pupils contracted.
He didn't expect her to view their past like this.
Adam fixed his eyes on her.
He realized that she said the words with calmness and even truly with vexation.
After Master Hsu had passed away, Adam seldom appeared in front of the Hsu's family. Only when he went paying respect in front of Master Hsu's grave would he think of their reunion in the graveyard. She had left for six years!
The same as that day when they parted ways, there was no emotion in her eyes. She just asked how was he as if she was asking a normal acquaintance.
"How am I?" He thought in his heart.
Being abandoned by her, how good could he be!
"Yes!" Anthea nodded.
A niece hook up with her uncle. If it was not absurd, what else could be?
Anthea said, "Uncle Adam, I have a lot of things to do. I have to go now!"
Adam watched her leave in the white coat.
He kept a poker face because there were too many emotions in his heart.
Adam had a cigarette in the smoking area before returning to the ward.
Carter had already crawled back to the hospital bed. He had a carton of milk in his hand that had not yet put in a cast and was sipping happily.
Seeing Adam, his eyes immediately sparkled as he pleaded for praise. "Aoooh... Captain Chin, I applied for my sister-in-law to be my attending physician. Was it very clever to have her tricked by ringing the bell just now? Am I good?"
La la la!
His title of champion helper was not for nothing!
Adam said, "officiousness."
"Stop acting, Captain Chin!" Carter smiled, "You've spent so much effort to transfer me here from the General Hospital in the military region because you know my sister-in-law is back! You don't have to say, I understand!"
Adam stood before the window. White clouds were floating in the blue sky outside.
The window was half open and breeze blew in.
With the breeze blowing on his face, Adam said in a deep voice, "What past is past"
Carter remained silence.
"Can it really go through?" Carter asked in his heart.
He didn't believe it!
Captain Chin had just held the girl in his arm and was unwilling to let go. All of these could not escape his, Carter Laux's, sharp eyes!
Carter looked at the tall and strong figure in front of the window. The military sleeves were rolled up to the elbows, and Carter could clearly see the tightening of his muscles and the faintly bulging blue veins on the back of his hand.
Adam picked up the military uniform coat on the sofa and said, "I'm going to have a meeting in the region this afternoon. I may be busy these two days.
I won't come tomorrow. It's just a minor operation. You will be fine, as a man!"
"Don't worry! My wife will accompany me tomorrow!" Carter took the opportunity to show off the love between him and his wife Kaylee Yanni.
Kaylee was also a medical staff. She was very busy at work and rarely had time during the day, but she would come over to take care of him at night.
The two of them met on a blind date and Carter fell in love with Kaylee at first sight and was even more obsessed with her afterwards. Although they had a common life in the past six years, there were no twists and turns and they were very happy.
Adam was speechless.
Watching him leave, Carter secretly curled his lips.
You could be reserved to the girl at the beginning, but you will have to pay multiple times effort to win her heart back.
