However, after Sunny realized her mistake, she could not help but feel remorseful.
She believed it was all because of Luca that she had been affected. If it were not for Luca, she would not have made such a mistake. With these thoughts in mind, Sunny entered Gordan's ward.
When Gale saw her cin again, he exclaimed in surprise, "Nurse, my boss has already left. Is there something you need?" "What?" Sunny glanced around the ward, only then realizing that the person Gale was referring to was not the person lying in the bed but that man.
Yes, she recalled their conversation a moment ago.
They all referred to Luke as 'Boss'...
Although such a title was quite crude, even a bit vulgar, she did not feel comfortable saying anything about it. After realizing what he meant, Sunny replied, "You must have misunderstood. I'm here to deliver medication." Then, she walked to the bedside and asked, "Your name." "Gordan Norton," Gordan closed his eyes and replied in a cold voice.
"Please showyour wristband." Then, Sunny was about to pick up Gordan's hand.
As soon as her fingertips touched Gordan's, he immediately pulled away.
"Huh?" Sunny was puzzled.
"I don't like others touching me," Gordan said coldly. He raised his hand to show her the non the wristband. Sunny was stunned for a moment and then awkwardly apologized, "I'm sorry." "The nurse just wants to confirm your name. Why such a big reaction?" Gale deliberately stepped forward to stir things up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was not that he was intentionally targeting Sunny, but he did not have a good impression of this nurse either.
A nurse should focus on her duties. Sunny always chere just for Luke.
Gordan had just finished surgery! If Sunny had even half a mind to check on Gordan, he would not be so resentful toward her.
If it were not for the director vouching for this nurse, saying she was his relative and absolutely trustworthy with patient privacy, he would definitely have opted to switch nurses.
"She has a strong smell..." Gordan was not bothered about Sunny's reaction.
Sunny's face turned pale when she heard what Gordan said. She wondered why she would have a strong smell. She bathed every day. If there was any smell, it had to be from the disinfectant... While she was still puzzled about the smell on her body, Gale's words reminded her.
"It's just perfume. Don't you usually smell that all the time? What's with the act here? She just accidentally sprayed a bit too much...." On the surface, Gale was criticizing Gordan, but in reality, he was pointing out that Sunny's perfwas too strong.
Sunny's face turned even paler as she suddenly remembered she had sprayed perfbecause of Luke. However, she did not think she had sprayed too much.
Gordan did not even look at Sunny. He glared at Gale. "You don't know anything. If perfmixes with disinfectant, do you know what that smells like? It's just so overpowering!" Sunny could not keep her smile anymore. She put down Gordan's medicine and said, "I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention." "Don't touchexcept for when you need to inject me," Gordan said sternly.
Sunny smiled awkwardly and nodded.
She could not help wondering if the combination of perfand disinfectant really smelled that bad. Gordan seemed utterly repulsed by it.
She had sprayed perfin the hospital before, but no one had ever mentioned it.
Sunny glanced at the lemons by the bedside. Then, she smiled and said, "If you're feeling off, just sniff slemon. A lot of patients do that after surgery when they're not feeling right. The lemon scent can calm your body and mind a bit." "That's right. This method was suggested by Boss' woman," Gale mentioned Luca.
Sunny's state of mind was thrown into turmoil by their conversation, but she could only manage to keep a strained smile on her face.
"If you need anything, just press the button. I'll get back to work now. Also, tonight's shift is covered by head nurse, and we'll take turns caring for you afterward, Mr. Norton. Please rest assured that we won't disclose your condition to anyone." It was the head nurse's day off today, which was why Sunny was on duty.
The director emphasized the need to keep the patient's identity and condition confidential. That was why the nurses alternated between day and night shifts.
Sunny and the head nurse had dealt with such situations before, so they were accustomed to it.
Both Gordan and Gale remained silent at that moment.
Sunny did not want to hear any more about Luca from them, so she turned around and left.
After Sunny left, Gale said to Gordan, who was on the bed, "Didn't expect you to be so cooperative." "Can a woman like her even match Luke?" A hint of mockery flashed across Gordan's eyes. He could smell the lingering scent of Sunny's perfin the ward and said, "Open the window. It stinks." "Why don't you find perfstinky when you're surrounded by women?" Gale did not move. He could tolerate the scent.
"There's no disinfectant smell on those women," retorted Gordan.
Gale shook his head. "If we open the window, won't it get too hot with the air conditioning on?" "It's better to be hot than suffocated. Open it for five minutes, and we'll close it later," Gordan insisted. Gale had no choice but to open the window.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe hot breeze blew in, causing him to furrow his brows. "Summer in A City is really hot. It must be around 30 degrees out there." "You can't stand the heat?" Gordan looked genuinely surprised.
"Not exactly... Gale shook his head.
"Even though it's been several years since I cto A City my previous e living environment... You know, it wasn't hot at all. So after all these years, I still find the summero temperatures here uncomfortable." Gordan knew the geographical coordinates of the Island of Despair. Summers there were like spring or autumn, never too hot. They did not even need air conditioning.
"Oh, by the way..." Gale paused for a moment, hesitating whether to continue.
"If you have something to say, just say it," Gordan said with his eyes closed, feeling much better after Luca's dry needling treatment.
"You toldto spit it out-" Gale started.
"In that case, don't say it," Gordan interrupted, picking up the lemon beside him and taking a sniff.
The refreshing scent cleared his head, preventing him from feeling too dizzy. If it were not for Johann's If it were! request for him to lie down for eight hours, he might have wanted to get up now. "You toldto say it. How can I not?" Gale quickly continued, "Should we inform Vivian about your injury?" "What for?" Gordan's tone was lazy, but just mentioning that nmade him recall their conversation at the entrance of the residential area a few days ago.
That conversation had angered him enough to spend a whole night boxing.
If he had had real sparring partners, he would have knocked down several.
"Do we really not need to inform her? Although you're divorced, it seems like you still care about her," said Gale.
Even though Gale had never been in a relationship himself, he was not matters. Piem clueless about suckin could sense the strange tension between Gordan and Vivian during the barbecue at Luke's house that night.
