"There's no need to." Luke's face darkened. Did she think her identity had changed just because she came back
with a different appearance? Had she forgotten that they were a couple?
She must have seen every part of his body, right?
Luca shut her mouth when she noticed Luke's expression. She did not say another word.
Luke said with a stiff voice, "Get a new wheelchair in here."
"Okay." Luca trotted out of the ward and went to the nurses' station to ask for a new wheelchair.
It was the VIP ward, so the patients here were definitely wealthy and respectable. That was why they provided
enough equipment.
After a while, Luca got another new wheelchair from the nurse. Keith happened to come out from the ward when
she passed by Tyrone's ward.
Keith could not help but mock Luca when he saw her pushing the wheelchair. "Well, your boss is kind of
troublesome. You even have to push the wheelchair for him. It would be much better for you to come look after my
cousin. He's in bed now. And that saves you a lot of trouble."
Luca rolled her eyes at Keith and ignored him. She pushed the wheelchair into Luke's ward and closed the door
immediately. Then, she pulled the curtains to stop people from peeking in out of curiosity.
Luke gave her another order when he saw her pushing the wheelchair in, "Move this table away."
Luca nodded and moved the table that was blocking him away. She knew Luke was planning to get off the bed when
he requested a wheelchair.
Luke did not feel uncomfortable even though he had only been sitting on the bed the whole afternoon. Luca knew
he could climb off the bed, which was why she did not stop him.
She put down the railing of the bed after she moved the table away.
Luke slowly climbed out of the bed. He was not used to the cast on his right leg, so his gestures were a little clumsy.
Luca waited until he had moved both of his legs to the bedside before pushing the wheelchair toward him. "Mr.
Crawford, I'll help you up later to get you to sit in the wheelchair, is that alright?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Alright," replied Luke. If it had not been for the cast, he would not have ended up in such a state.
Luca looked at Luke, who was in his hospital robe. She took a deep breath, reached out her arms, and put her arms
around his waist.
The hospital was warm enough, so the hospital robe was not that thick. Luca could feel Luke's body temperature
when she put her arms around his waist like this.
He felt warm, and there was a hint of static electricity on his body.
Luca wanted to withdraw her arms. However, Luke was already standing with one foot on the floor. The man would
definitely fall on the bed if she withdrew her hands now.
Luca blushed while she helped Luke get into the wheelchair. She stopped the wheelchair from moving backward
with one of her legs.
It took a lot of effort to put Luke into the wheelchair properly.
However, Luke was thinking about how happy he would be if they were able to hug each other like this all the time.
Luke sat in the wheelchair and cleared his throat. He was not just distracted for a short moment just now. He even
seemed to have lost himself.
"Take me to the bathroom," Luke ordered.
Luca's face was still red. She quietly stood behind Luke so that he would not notice her blushing face. She quickly
pushed the wheelchair to the bathroom when she heard him.
“Push me in. Leave the rest to me. There's no need to trouble you,” said Luke.
Luca nodded. She pushed down forcefully to lift the back wheels of the wheelchair up into the air. Then, she pushed
Luke into the bathroom.
Even though Luke told her she did not have to help him, she prepared a small tub for the face and a towel for him.
Then, she took the showerhead down for Luke.
Finally, she took another hospital robe given by the nurse and hung it on the clothes hook beside him.
"Mr. Crawford, try not to wet the cast," Luca reminded him with a soft voice.
"I know." After that, Luke lifted his head and glanced at Luca. Her face was red. It seemed like she had feelings for
him too but just refused to admit it.
"Your face is red." Luke exposed her.
"It's probably because of the warm temperature here," Luca replied. She glanced at the things she had prepared
for him and made sure that everything was prepared. She left the bathroom right away like she was running away
from something. "Mr. Crawford, I'll be outside the door. Just call me if you need anything."
"Will you come in if I call you?" Luke maneuvered the wheelchair and turned around to look at her.
Luca's face turned redder, then she immediately closed the door.
Luke smiled as he watched the door close. He was amused at making Luca blush.
Luca stood not far away from the door of the bathroom. She was worried that Luke might face some difficulties
when washing himself up. She dared not to move too far away.
Luca was lost in thought while she stared at the closed bathroom door. Would she dash into the bathroom if
anything happened to Luke?
Luca would still rush into the bathroom even though she knew it was inappropriate to do so. After all, she would not
be able to stop herself from feeling worried about him.
Luca's heart still belonged to Luke even though she could not acknowledge him.
Luca looked outside the window. Judging from the temperature out there, it would be snowing soon.
It had been three years since she was able to spend the first snowfall in winter with her loved ones. She looked
down, feeling upset at the thought of spending her fourth year like that too.
Half an hour later, Luke's voice came out from the bathroom. "I'm done."
The door was not locked from the inside. Luca opened the door carefully, only to find that Luke had already put on
the clean hospital robe. He sat in the wheelchair, looking at her.
There were water stains all around.
Luca thought that it must have been difficult for Luke as he was not used to showering while sitting in a wheelchair.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat was why he looked like he was in a fluster.
Well, at least he managed to clean himself up.
Luca pushed the wheelchair and got Luke back into the ward. However, she did not use the method from earlier to
help him. Instead, she held her hand out and said, "Mr. Crawford, can you climb up the bed?"
Luke looked at her with his deep eyes. Was she afraid of touching him again because of what had happened just
now?
Luke glanced at the time. Then, he grabbed her hand and stood up with one foot. He could feel how careful she
was being. A wicked idea came across Luke's mind. He pretended to stagger and fall on her.
Luca was fast. She immediately put her arms around him without considering the distance she should be keeping
from him.
Luke took advantage of the situation to take Luca into his arms. His fiery palm held her waist. Luca exclaimed in
surprise when she felt the warmth. She could not help but lean forward.
Luke did not expect Luca to lose her balance. His body was leaning backward too.
He suddenly fell onto the bed with Luca on top of him.
Luke cried out when his leg was pinned down. Then, he looked at Luca, who was leaning on his chest.
Although it hurt a little, his hand was holding Luca's waist tightly, and he refused to let her go.
Luca lifted her head and looked at Luke's chiseled jaw. Her heart was racing uncontrollably.
There was zero distance between them now.
It seemed like their clothes could not stop the warmth from spreading to each other. She could hear her heart
pounding in her ears, and her body was on fire.
"Mr. Crawford, are you alright?" Luca recalled Luke had cried out in pain just now.
"I'm fine." Luke's hand was still on her waist.
Luca let out a sigh of relief. Then, she moved his hand away from her waist, thinking of holding onto the bed to get
up.
