Chapter 1870 As Long As He Is A Good Guy
“I’m sorry, Mr. Norton, but you must have mistaken me for someone else. I’m Selena,” Selena said when she recalled hearing him calling her Joan earlier.
Larry kept quiet and simply walked toward the clinic.
“What happened to you, Selena? How did you get yourself hurt so badly?” The doctor asked as she had always been close with Selena and Delilah.
“Oh, it’s nothing! I just slipped and fell, that’s all!” Selena said with an embarrassed smile.
“Is that so? Are you sure you aren’t being bullied?” The doctor shot Larry a cold and suspicious glare as she said that.
Being similar in age to Delilah, it was natural that she cared about Selena like her own daughter.
“Yes, doctor. He was the one who carried me all the way here after I fell down,” Selena explained, much to the doctor’s relief.
Larry furrowed his brows as he scanned the interior of the clinic.
Why is this clinic so shabby and poorly equipped?
He then pulled out his phone and punched in Caspian’s number without any hesitation.
“Hey, Caspian. Go take a look at the hospital and see what equipment they have. After that, I want you to purchase some proper ones and have them delivered to this location. I’ll text you the address in a bit.”
Of course, Caspian wouldn’t say no to Larry’s orders and drove toward the hospital immediately.
“Say, who is he? I can’t believe he carried you all the way here without a single complaint!” the doctor whispered into Selena’s ear with a nosy look on her face.
“Oh, I found him unconscious in the rain yesterday, so I carried him home…” Selena whispered back.
“I do have to say, he is pretty handsome and seems to be a really nice guy. I mean, he didn’t even get mad at me when I was rude to him earlier! I think you two would make a great pair.” The doctor gave Selena a gentle nudge on the shoulder.
“What are you saying? He’s from the city, and I’m just a nobody from the village…” The look in Selena’s eyes turned dull when she said that.
There’s simply too huge of a difference between our backgrounds and lifestyles, so we won’t be seeing eye to eye on a lot of things in life… Dating a guy like this would be so exhausting…
“Ah!” Selena let out a cry all of a sudden.
“You silly girl! As long as he’s a good guy, it doesn’t matter where he’s from!” the doctor said while pressing on Selena’s wound.
Larry came running into the ward the moment he heard her scream.
“What happened? Does it hurt a lot?”
He grabbed her tightly by the hand, shocking both her and the doctor instantly. Whoa… Isn’t he being a little too touchy-feely?
The doctor cleared her throat awkwardly, prompting Selena to pull her hand back immediately.
“Right then… Here’s some ointment for your wound. Make sure to replace the bandages before bed every night, okay? Oh, and try not to walk around too much. In fact, it’s even better if you don’t walk at all,” the doctor deliberately cast a glance at Larry as she said that.
Selena knew exactly what she meant by that and simply pouted without saying a word.
“Here, hop on.” Larry knelt down in front of Selena while the doctor covered her mouth and grinned as she watched from the side.
“Don’t listen to her, Mr. Norton. I’m fine, and I can walk on my own, so you don’t have to trouble yourself…” Selena said as she tried to get off the bed, only to get pulled into Larry’s arms.
“Would you rather have me carry you on my back or in my arms?”
His voice was so deep and attractive that Selena found it a little hard to breathe.
Oh, no… What’s going on? Am I really into him?
Selena clenched her fists nervously at the thought of that.
“Uh… I think you should carry her in your arms to avoid making contact with the wound on her knee,” the doctor said before turning around and walking out of the ward.
“What?” Selena looked in the direction the doctor went.
Before she knew it, she was being held in Larry’s arms once again.
Along the way, everyone around them stared in surprise and curiosity, and Selena felt like she was going to die from the embarrassment. Larry, on the other hand, enjoyed every bit of it very much.
