Vera, of course, followed him with a smile.
The ward was terrifyingly quiet. On the bed laid a man whose whole body was wrapped up. Even his face was covered with gauze. Only two eyes were left exposed. No one could recognize who he was.
Quill stood in front of the hospital bed and stared at him for a while. He turned around helplessly, looked at Vera who was behind him and said coldly, "Go and call Jerry in." "What's wrong?" She felt that something was wrong. "Didn't the doctor say not to let too many people cin?" He pursed his lips and was very dissatisfied.
"I'm here to confirm his identity. He's so wrapped up; how can you be sure that he is Maddox?" He pointed at the patient on the hospital bed and said coldly.
Vera blinked her eyes and replied, "Didn't he say that his whole body was injured? Even if it was wrapped into a mummy, it's very normal." Quill stared at her. "Are you trying to go against me?" "No, I wouldn't dare. I'll call him in right away." Thus, she went out to call Jerry over.
After listening to her explanation, Jerry scratched his head with a pained expression. After a while, he said, "Why don't I get a doctor to remove all the gauze on his body?" Hearing this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"Are you crazy? It's not easy for the doctor to wrap the gauze and you want to ask him to remove all the gauze. Either you or the doctor is crazy. Otherwise, how would the doctor agree to such an unreasonable request?" Quill initially thought that Jerry's idea was not bad...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWas he crazy? Was it because Quill was also a man, thus he did not have the kind of compassion for the person? He felt that it was not a big deal to remove the gauze.
"But if you don't remove the gauze, there's no way to tell who he is. But..." Jerry was a little hesitant.
"But what?" Quill's eyes swept over him.
Jerry hesitated for a moment before answering, "Even if the gauze is removed, you may not be able to recognize him because his entire body including his face was covered with wounds. Your heart may not bear the pain." Vera was speechless.
Quill's frown deepened.
It seemed that he was really seriously injured. In this case, they could not remove the gauze casually. If there was an infection, what were they going to do if this cost him his life? Then, what should he tell this to his sister? Thinking of this, Quill could only open his mouth again. "How long before the gauze can be removed?" "It will probably take a few days." "Okay, I understand. You can go out first." Jerry nodded his head, then turned around and went out.
After he left, Quill's gaze fell on Vera's face. "We are still not certain yet. When we go back, don't talk nonsense in front of Minerva." She nodded quickly. "Don't worry. Even if you don't warn me, I know what to say and what not to say. Since Mr. Yardley is in such a horrible state, it's better not to let Minerva know that we have found him." "Since you are aware then I don't need to remind you yet again." She pouted unhappily and said, "I'm not a fool. How can I not know these things?" "What did you say?" She said it very softly just now, thus Quill did not hear it clearly.
She shook her head. "Nothing." After that, she lowered her head in frustration.
It seemed that she becmore timid in front of him after being refused by Quill.
It seemed like he was becoming colder towards her.
She was so depressed. She felt that all her efforts these days had been in vain. They still seemed to be so distant.
Instead, it seemed like they were growing further apart.
While thinking, Vera raised her head and looked at the person on the hospital bed.
Was it really that serious? She glanced from head to toe and she noticed that even though he was completely wrapped in gauze, his face seemed familiar.
Vera was shocked and she looked at the man in disbelief.
Why did he look completely different from Young Master Yardley? Usually, when she saw Maddox, she was like a mouse seeing a cat. It was not because she was too timid, but because his aura was too strong and powerful.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, the person lying on the hospital bed did not give Vera such a feeling. Was it because he had bandages wrapped around his body? The bandages had concealed his aura? While she was deep in her thoughts, she heard a cold voice echoing from the side, "Let's go." "What?" Vera turned around and saw that Quill had already walked to the door. She was taken aback for a moment. "Are we leaving?" "Do you still want to stay?" She shook her head. Why would she stay? Now that he was so badly injured and he was completely covered in gauze, she couldn't do anything even if she stayed.
When she walked to the door of the ward, she couldn't help but take another glance at the man in the hospital bed again, and she reached out her hand to hold her chin. "It's so strange. Why do I feel that this person givesa very familiar feeling? But it's completely different from the feeling of Maddox..." It felt so familiar.
"Why are you in a daze? Let's go."
Quill's urging voice echoed from not far away. Vera cback to hem enses, and quickly caught up with senses him. Then, she continued to walk behind him. After walking for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "By the way, I have a question for you." Quill, who was walking in front directly asked, "What is it?"
Recalling the figure just now, she felt strange, thus she told him about what she was thinking and he m frowned upon hearing her thoughts. "Well, I'm not trying to imply anything here, it's just my intuition. After all, this person is wrapped in gauze, so I can't recognize him, so..." Quill suddenly paused. Vera didn't see him stop because she was thinking, hence she slammed into his back once again.
Her nose and forehead were aching. She covered her nose and looked up at the people in front of her helplessly. "Why did you stop again?" Couldn't he walk properly? Why must he stop suddenly, causing her to bump into him again? He turned around and his deep eyes fell on her face. "Must you walk behind me?" "What?" "Walk in front of me." He didn't sound furious but commanding. She was obedient and walked in front of him.
The two of them continued to walk towards the car but this tVera in walked in front. Qui quickly caught up with her and asked, "What did you mean?" Vera was dumbfounded She thought that he didn't care about what she said just now.
"I don't mean anything else. I just have a strange feeling." "Are you trying to say that that person isn't Maddox?" Her eyes widened. She stopped and shook her head hard. "I, I didn't say that." Vera did not dare to talk nonsense. It was just her intuition.
