Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 457 An hour later, Hull strolled out of the operating room, his face composed as usual.

Susanna had been waiting nervously by the door the entire time.

When Hull emerged and saw her, his eyes flickered with a hint of surprise. "You've been here the whole time?"

His voice was calm, revealing nothing.

Susanna nodded nervously, glancing at his shoulder, which was wrapped tightly to stop the bleeding.

"Did they get the bullet out? Does it hurt?"

A bullet wound they were talking about! In her previous life, Susanna never imagined she'd encounter something like this. Yet here she was, living through it.

In Susanna's mind, an injury like that should have had someone knocked out for at least three days, followed by a month of bed rest.

But Hull was up and about, looking as energetic as ever. A bandit, indeed, even the injury wouldn't trouble him.

Hull raised an eyebrow, gazing at her delicate face. "Hurt? Are you worried about me?"

Susanna was taken aback. Worry about him? Her?
