He stretched his long arms and held the infusion bottle high in his hand. He said in a voice as calm as red wine, “Alright, I will accompany you.”
Catelyn let out a soft yelp. Did he want to accompany me to the bathroom? She could never imagine that ever happening. “N.No need. I can go alone,” she said, feeling embarrassed and ashamed. “Stop jumping to conclusions. There are hooks in the bathroom for the infusion bottle. Do you really think I will be standing there, watching you?”
Cedrick was enjoying her awkwardness, and his thin lips rose into a slightly playful smile.
Catelyn was so embarrassed that she kept silent and walked toward the bathroom. The bathroom in the VIP ward was very clean. There are even paper toilet seat covers on the seat.
Indeed, there was a white rubber hook next to the toilet, almost at her eye level. Cedrick placed the infusion bottle on the hook, hanging it upside down. He said in his rare gentle tone, “Be careful not to hold your hand too high. We would not want the blood to flow backward
“Yes…” she replied, feeling that Cedrick was not as annoying as before. Cedrick turned around and went out. With the infusion tube in her left hand, Catelyn used her right hand to take off her pants.
She had now changed into the hospital’s designated patient’s robe. It was loose, with no buttons. She felt it was one size too big for her, and the collar was loose. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Nevertheless, she will just be lying in bed and covered in the duvet. No one would notice that.
Cedrick stood by the bathroom door.
He was actually a light sleeper. Once woken up, it would be hard for him to fall asleep again. Especially in the middle of the night, it felt like the right time for a cigarette.
However, considering Catelyn’s condition, he suppressed his urge to smoke a cigarette. After some five minutes. The bathroom was still quiet, Catelyn did not ask for him as well.
Just when Cedrick wondered if he needed to check on her…”
“Ahhh!”
He heard an excruciating shriek from the bathroom.
Cedrick jumped and yelled, “Catelyn?”
“I’m… I’m fine!” Catelyn replied.
Cedrick frowned. “If you are fine, why did you shriek?”
“I… I saw a white shadow outside the window. I thought it was a ghost.”
Cedrick paused, his lips opened slightly while lacing his big palm on the doorknob.”… Do you need me inside?”
“No!” Catelyn was shocked and immediately stopped Cedrick as though avoiding something.”
I have not put on my pants yet. Please wait a minute!”
In fact, Catelyn had slipped in the bathroom. She was on all fours. The pain came from her dislocated bones. Her face was pale, and it was hard for her to even move by an inch.
It would be so embarrassing for her if Cedrick came in right now to see her this way.
Earlier, when she was about to wash her hand, she did not notice a small puddle of water on the ground, so she slipped and fell. Luckily, the infusion bottle was on the hook and did not get toppled over.
Catelyn dragged herself to the side in great difficulty and tried to help herself up. However, it was too painful to do so. Her body would start sweating whenever she tried to exert force, but she could not get up.
Just when she thought she could give herself a break before trying again…
Clank!
