Chapter 342

Joshua woke up early, but his body felt completely worn out.

When Cyrus turned back, Joshua had already closed his eyes and drifted off again.

Seeing Joshua bundled up in blankets, Cyrus stood there thinking for a few seconds, then quietly slipped out of the hospital room.

For the next few days.

Noelle cared for Joshua Lynch without resting, staying by his side day and night.

When she found out Xylia was in the hospital too, she kept urging the doctors to let Joshua go home.

But his injuries were just too severe, and the doctors wouldn’t budge, insisting it was for his own good.

Finally, Noelle had to resort to threats. She demanded the doctors discharge Joshua immediately, warning, “If you don’t, I swear I’ll cause a scene right this minute.”

With no other choice, the doctors had her sign a waiver and reluctantly agreed to let Joshua go.

Relieved, Noelle grabbed a wheelchair and headed back to the room.

Joshua was propped up against the headboard when Noelle came in.

His bones were a mess–after surgery, he could only manage to move just a little.

Noelle looked after Joshua, sure, but she made sure to call in a male nurse for all those hygiene chores.

She wasn’t about to roll up her sleeves for anything involving a sponge bath–or worse. Even if it was Joshua, that kind of stuff was absolutely off–limits for her.

Noelle rolled in with the wheelchair and flagged down the male nurse to help transfer Joshua into it.

Joshua shot her a puzzled look. ‘What’s all this about?‘ he muttered.

‘I signed your discharge forms. We’re leaving–don’t argue. I’ll get you to a real orthopedic hospital, Noelle said, all business.

Noelle had just finished speaking when the male nurse couldn’t help but chime in.

“Look, even if you’re thinking about transferring him, it’s really better to wait until he’s healed up a bit. His injuries are still pretty serious–moving him now just isn’t safe.”

He’d barely finished when Noelle shot back,

“I hired you to look after him, not to tell me how to do my job. Just because Joshua’s stuck in this hospital doesn’t mean I need your advice.”
