Chapter 65- Cake tasting

“How is my fiancé, Doctor? How are his legs?” Tessa asked Aaron’s physiotherapist, Doctor Rebekah Williams.

They had gone for Aaron’s usual therapy sessions. Ever since Tessa found out about his pain, she offered to go to his physical therapy sessions with him. She accompanied him as he did. intense exercises to help him overcome the pain that came as a result of his injured legs.

After two hours of treatment, the physiotherapist requested an audience with Aaron to report on his progress.

“I think he’s on the road to recovery. The pain might have even lessened a bit, right, Mr. Wentworth?” Doctor Rebekah asked Aaron.

Aaron nodded and replied, “Yes. I can stand for hours now and will only have mild pain in my legs after.”

“How is your shoulder now? Does it still hurt?” Doctor Rebekah inquired as she scribbled something in her notebook.

Aaron had also started therapy for his shoulder for quick recovery after Nora stabbed him. Although the wound had scabbed over and looked like it had healed, there was still some internal discomfort and pain.

Tessa glanced up at Aaron, awaiting his response. She also wanted to know because Aaron was an expert at hiding his pain so as not to worry her.

Aaron nodded and said, “It’s also recovering.”

When Tessa narrowed her eyes at him, he raised his hand and rolled his shoulder, saying, ” See? There’s no more pain.”

“I saw you grimace when you carried the kids on your shoulders at the aquarium three weeks ago,” Tessa pointed out.

“Yes. It hurt back then but it’s been three weeks and I feel fine. Don’t be worried, love,” Aaron. responded and gave her a warm assuring smile.

Doctor Rebekah wrote down a prescription and handed it over to Tessa. She presented, “I’m changing his medication to a lighter dose. Since he’s no longer in too much pain, there’s no need for strong painkillers. Just make sure to massage his shoulder and legs regularly. Every night if possible.”

Tessa’s eyes widened as she got the prescription. “Every night? That’s not possible.”

“Don’t you live together? Mr Wentworth said you’re his wife,” Doctor Rebekah remarked as she looked between the two.

Heat crept up Tessa’s face. She was about to say she was not his wife yet but Aaron beat her to it. He said, “She will be my wife in a week, so we will live together soon. We will find a way for me to get those massages in the meantime.”

Doctor Rebekah nodded and instructed, “Well, since you’re getting married soon, I must mention that having regular sex will help strengthen the muscles in your legs, Mr Wentworth. Especially positions that require you to balance on your legs.”

“Really?” Aaron’s lips stretched into a wide smile. He glanced at Tessa and remarked, hear that, cupcake? We need to do it regularly to help with my healing.”

“You

Tessa’s face blushed. She averted the doctor’s eyes and responded, “I’ll do my best to help him heal.”

Aaron placed the side of his fist to his mouth and cleared his throat. He looked at Doctor Rebekah and sought, “Doctor, how regular is regular? As in… how often should we make love?

Tessa blushed profusely. She nudged Aaron’s side and rounded her eyes at him, giving him the ‘what kind of question is that?’ look.
