Chapter 154 You're Leaving?

The scent of disinfectant soon overcame the metallic smell of blood in the room. After sanitizing and treating the wound, Everleigh went to the bathroom to wash her hands and pour away the basin of bloody water.

The swooshing of the bloody red fluid as it was flushed down the toilet might look strange, but for a medical student like Everleigh, it was a sight she has gotten used to.

Everleigh came out and sat down beside the bed. She wrung dry a cold towel and put it on Theodore's forehead. She also used an alcohol swab to wipe the inner side of his arm to cool him down. If the infection caused a fever, failure to treat the fever properly might leave unprecedented consequences.

It was impossible to conduct the operation under a completely sterile environment given that the facilities were limited. Nonetheless, she tried her best. The wound on Theodore's left abdomen had been sutured with two stitches, but he still remained unconscious. He seemed to be burning up.

When Everleigh got up, her hand was suddenly tightly grasped. She turned around and saw Theodore gazing at her, the wariness in his eyes slowly faded away once he saw clearly that it was her. "You're awake?" Everleigh was stunned.

Theodore replied with a "hmm". He seemed to have gained his consciousness and slowly let go of Everleigh's hand. "Why are you here?"

"Your assistant called me and said that you were hurt," Everleigh replied.

"It's just a minor injury," Theodore said. He attempted to sit up on the bed but accidentally agitated his wound and let out a muffled groan.

"Don't move," Everleigh frowned and continued, "You have two stitches on your wound. If you don't wish for the wound to bleed profusely and get sent to the hospital, please stay still." Theodore was startled for a moment. In a split second, he laid back down on the pillow.

Everleigh breathed a sigh of relief and said as she packed up the medical kit. "When this is over, you'd better go to the hospital. This is not a sterile environment and your recovery cannot be guaranteed." "You're leaving?" Theodore asked.

Theodore's question had nothing to do with her instructions. For a moment, she was perplexed.

Theodore rarely looked so weak. At least, she had never seen him like this before.

When they were dating, he never even got a cold or fever. He won first place in a three-kilometer race in university, with a record of beating the first runner up by one and a half laps. His physical strength was excellent. Hence, the moment Everleigh saw him in the hospital for the first time, she was startled while reading the medical report of his stomach.
