Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 103

He touched her gauze gently with his rough hand and said, "Don't be so silly next time!"

He remembered how she had been wounded trying nobly to protect Angela. Before she was stabbed, he used to consider her a narrow-minded person, but now, he had seen the good and righteous part of her.

Nancy shook her head. "No. It was Angela. She was too silly. She could totally have left me alone in danger, but she didn't..." Instead, to protect her, Angela let herself get wounded. How could she run away and leave Angela alone?

Stanley made no answer. He simply lifted her to his chest, and walked towards the washroom.

The ward was very close to the washroom. Nancy felt a boost of happiness.

He put her near the toilet carefully, so that Nancy could lean her whole body on him.

He could not leave, so he just closed his eyes and said, "You... go on. I'll turned away."

Nancy was so embarrassed she had no idea what to do. If she refused Stanley, he would definitely think she felt awkward.

So she took off the hospital pants quickly and sat on the toilet. She told Stanley, "You may go out now."

"Okay. Call me when you finish!" Stanley also felt rather embarrassed when he thought of Nancy and what she was doing right now...

She closed her eyes and didn't open them until she could be sure that he had turned around.

Two minutes later, Stanley heard the sound of toilet flushing. "I'm done!"

Stanley opened the door and walked in with his eyes closed, which teased out a giggle from Nancy. "You don't have to close your eyes."

Her permission cemented his conviction and so he drew closer to her, his eyes wide open.

It turned out Nancy had already dressed with difficulty. Stanley noticed that her face was even paler. He thought she must had been working very hard to stand up just now.

He carried her waif-like body back to the ward without a word. Before they reached the bed, someone new opened the door.

Stanley first caught sight of her long burgundy hair. Nancy's look changed immediately when she saw her.

She wore a short pea-green coat with a white dress underneath, and black silk stockings. The crystal high heels she wore were were a limited edition.

It was Grace.

Nancy loosened her hands which circled Stanley's neck and tried to explain. "I... just asked him to do me a favor... Don't..."

Stanley was a little confused when he saw her acting this way. She seemed to be making excuses to Grace.

Why? Was it because she didn't want to be trapped in any relationship with him, or was it because of Grace... Did Grace trouble her?

Grace's face also changed. She tried to half-smile to obscure the lie. "It's okay, Nancy. I know it aches. It's inconvenient for you to do anything by yourself."

Grace was never a tender woman, but she knew Stanley liked Nancy for her tenderness. So she deliberately tried to imitate her personality.

Stanley placed Nancy on the bed and told her. "You two have a chat. I have to go now. I still have work to do."

'He's leaving again...' Nancy felt heartbroken.
