Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 784

Dr. Smith chuckled softly, "Very soon."

"How soon is 'very soon'?" Gilbert was clearly dissatisfied with that vague response.

"Gilbert!" Sherilyn was embarrassed, tugging at the hand he was holding.

"Quiet!"

This was so mortifying.

She could even hear the nurse assisting giggling at the situation!

Despite being reprimanded, Gilbert wasn't upset. Instead, he anxiously looked at her, "How is it now? Did the anesthesia work? Does it still hurt?" "It doesn't hurt anymore!"

Sherilyn snapped back, determined not to make another sound, even if it killed her!

"She says it doesn't hurt now."

Gilbert sighed in relief and urged the doctor, "Hurry up with the stitches! Don't let the anesthesia wear off and have her in pain again!" "Alright."

Dr. Smith gave a dry laugh, took the needle and thread from the nurse, and began stitching.

It was over quickly, just two stitches.

"All done."

Dr. Smith set down his tools and removed his gloves, "The cut isn't big. Just take some oral antibiotics for three days."

"Okay." Gilbert nodded, pointing to her forehead, "Will it leave a scar?"
