Chapter 386 Bewitched In the end, the doctor and Freya left. After the door was closed, Kyran apologized to Deirdre, âIâm sorry for using your name like that to reject her.â
Deirdre still couldnât quite return to her senses. She felt a little uncomfortable when Kyran was being so polite with her. âItâs okay.â
âIt didnât do me any harm anyway,â she said. âBut sheâs a nurse. Whoâs going to take care of you after rejecting her and the help from the caretaker?â
Kyran was stunned for a moment and asked, âCan I ask you a favor, Deirdre?â
âWhat is it?â
âCan you help me wash my body?â â
Deirdreâs face turned red for a moment before turning pale after hearing his question. She bit her lower lips tightly and said, âI⦠I donât think I can help you anyway. I messed it up when I tried to help you last time. If I hurt you again, I wonât be able to forgive myself.â
âIâm sure youâll be alright this time,â typed Kyran. âNo one else in this world would make me feel relieved more than you. Iâm sure youâll do a great job this time. I was injured yesterday because I wasnât used to it. I promise you that it will be different this time. Or do you want me to get taken advantage of by that nurse?â
It went without saying that was the last thing Deirdre wanted to happen. She fell into deep contemplation but felt that she needed to do something for Kyran. Thus, she went to get a bowl of warm water and helped him take off his clothes.
She tried to stop herself from thinking too much and asked, âWhere is the wound? Iâll try my best not to touch it later.â
âItâs on my chest. But most of my torso has been bandaged, so you just need to help me wipe my arms.
and lower body.â
Listening to the voice from the phone, Deirdre was momentarily stunned, and her face turned burning red with embarrassment.
âLower body?â
Deirdre did not know why, but she felt it weird to hear the mechanical voice mention that word.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âNothing. Stretch your arms. Iâm going to start from your arm first.â
When she was helping him take his pants off, Deirdre couldnât help herself but touch his abdomen.
When she touched the bandage, she was dumbfounded.
âDonât they only operate on the chest for congenital heart disease? Why is his abdomen bandaged as well?
As if he could see through her mind, Kyran explained, âThe doctor was worried that the wound might tear open again, so he bandaged my entire upper body.â
âI see.â
Deirdreâs pale face regained normal color. She was too sensitive.
You just need to briefly wipe my lower body. Just make sure you donât touch my bandage.â
Deirdreâs face turned red again, and she replied in a muffled voice, âOkay.â
She wrung out the towel and wiped his lower body with extreme care. As she tried to stop her thoughts.
from going wild, she accidentally grazed a certain part, and Kyran hissed out in pain.
Deirdre hastily stopped. âWhatâs wrong, Kyran!?â
It took Kyran a short while to come around from the pain. He took a deep breath and typed on the phone, Deirdre, that place is very delicate and fragile. Please donât be so hard on it.â
âHuh?â Deirdre was stunned for a moment when realization dawned upon her. Her face turned scarlet with embarrassment as she said, âIâm so sorry about that!â
She couldnât see anything, so she did not know that she had been holding that place for so long and with such a strong force.
âItâs okay. Just continue.â
Deirdreâs face was so red that it looked just like a tomato right now. After she finished cleaning his body, she picked up his patientâs clothes and went out.
If she stayed any longer in the ward, she might want to find a hole and bury herself in it.
âHe wouldnât think that Iâm some kind of thirsty woman for touching that place, right?â
She patted her cheek to drive those thoughts out of her head. When she was going to ask a nurse about the location of the cloth washing machine, she heard a woman shouting at the top of her lungs.
âAre you serious? Mr. Reed has a girlfriend? If he has a girlfriend, then why hasnât she come to visit him? Does she not know that heâs hospitalized?â
âSheâs here,â Freya said through her gritted teeth. âDo you know who his girlfriend is? His girlfriend is that blind woman who often comes to the hospital.â
âBlind woman?â The woman thought for a while and was stunned upon realizing something. âThat ugly woman whose face is disfigured?â
âYes!â
âWhat? Whatâs wrong with handsome men these days? Even a dog would run away from her. Did she put a curse on Mr. Reed or what?â
