What Separates Me and You

Chapter 328 Waiting for His Death

Before Lewis could say anything, Conrad was the first one to pipe up anxiously. “What’s wrong? Is it serious?”

Anna replied, “I don’t know, but it looks really bad, not to mention the wound is close to his heart. I suggest you get a check-up at the hospital, Chairman Alvarez. I don’t have the courage to treat this wound without proper equipment.”

Conrad retorted, “I don’t think his heart is injured. If that’s truly the case, then-”

If Lewis’ heart got injured, how was he alive and still kicking? Then again, Conrad didn’t dare to say such things in front of his boss.

Anna stated, “It’s best to get it checked out. You should get some stitches for your wound too, or else it will be difficult for you to heal.”

She could tell Lewis’ wound was deep and hadn’t healed much. Besides, there were also traces of unknown medicinal herbs stuffing the wound, so she had no idea what Lewis’ condition was like.

The man was obviously irritated when he heard the doctor’s suggestion.

At that point, the living room was starting to become noisy. The bedroom door suddenly swung open, revealing Josephine, who walked out of the room while rubbing her eyes sleepily.

She looked surprised when she noticed the people in the living room. All traces of sleep vanished instantly.

“Madam,” Conrad greeted.

Josephine didn’t know who he was, so she ignored him after glancing his way. After that, she walked toward Lewis right away.

Upon noticing his state of undress, the young woman’s first instinct was to check his wound.

However, before she could proceed, Lewis halted her actions, preventing her from turning him around. Instead, he gently redirected her gaze to meet his own.

Josephine’s approach to examining his wound was straightforward. She would take a single glance at the injury, swiftly assessing that it had not healed adequately, and immediately proceed to provide him with treatment.

It was fine if Josephine did that when no one was around, but if she were to do that with everyone watching-

Lewis still had a reputation to maintain.

He hugged Josephine with one arm tightly while ordering coldly, “Let’s go to the hospital.

If one were to study the man’s actions right now, one would have noticed that he seemed to be chaining Josephine to his side despite his intimate actions.

Thankfully, Josephine couldn’t speak at all, which was advantageous to Lewis’ case. He knew for sure that she wouldn’t be talking dirty to him in front of everyone.

Josephine stopped struggling when she heard the word “hospital.” The hospital was definitely a good place for Lewis because the doctors there could check his wound meticulously. She was confident that the man would recover quickly there.

Sierra’s gaze kept darting from Lewis to Josephine. She didn’t know if she was jealous or angry, but the emotion consuming her at the moment was most likely a mixture of both. She balled up her fists tightly, feeling sharp nails digging into her palms.
