Chapter 2200: Chapter 2209: Hogging Half the Hospital Bed
Before long, he came out carrying a basin of steaming water.
Clumsily, he helped the person on the hospital bed sit up a little, wrung out the towel, and began to wipe her down.
Dirt from the elevator shaft was smudged across Enna Clark’s forehead and body, and a casual wipe revealed streaks of gray on the white towel.
This time, the man with a severe case of mysophobia surprisingly showed no distaste. He undid Enna Clark’s shirt buttons and wiped her entire body with warm water little by little.
Without care, he roughly buttoned up her shirt again.
Picking up the water, he went back to the bathroom to change the basin and repeated what he did earlier.
He was the kind of person who loathed hassles and hated performing repetitive, mechanical tasks. Yet this time, he not only did it but carefully wiped Enna Clark’s body twice without a hint of impatience.
By the time he finished all this, the moon had risen high in the sky.
Baron Lawrence himself went to the bathroom and took a shower with the water making splashing sounds. Frowning, he begrudgingly dressed himself before returning to the hospital room.
This time, he didn’t choose to sit by the bed, but instead lifted the blanket beside Enna Clark and lay down—
Fortunately, Enna Clark was in a VIP hospital room, and the bed was large enough.
As soon as he lay down, he hooked his long arm around the unconscious person, pulling Enna Clark into his embrace, physically making her use his arm as a pillow...
Enna Clark, without any sensation, if she was merely asleep, would have been woken by his restless actions and would have wanted to bite him.
Unfortunately, she was in a coma, and despite Baron Lawrence’s fuss, she felt nothing...
"Beep, beep, beep..." The ECG instrument in the hospital room continued to emit a steady ticking sound.
The domineering man occupying the hospital bed wasn’t actually sleeping. He merely took up half the bed space, holding her in his arms and staring at her at close range...
His gaze moved from her softly shaped eyebrows to her tightly closed eyes, to her delicate nose, and finally, paused at her pale lips.
Enna Clark’s lips had the feel of a kitten’s lips, with naturally upturned corners that, even when not smiling, gave off an always cheerful, friendly impression.
However, at this moment, her beautiful lips bore no trace of color, and even the upturned corners seemed so weak...
The row of teeth marks on her lower lip especially conveyed just how emotionally overwhelmed she was at that moment.
In Baron Lawrence’s mind emerged the image of him letting go and jumping aside to grab the broken steel cable, and the woman’s reaction.
Enna Clark’s first reaction was to reach out to grab him, and immediately afterwards, she opened her mouth as if to call his name, but he didn’t hear her voice, only saw her transition from initially reaching out in panic to desperately waving her hands, as if she couldn’t hear him no matter how much he shouted...
The injury on her lips must have been self-inflicted at that moment!
Baron Lawrence suddenly felt his breathing become unsteady, his dark eyes shifting dramatically.
Damn it, this woman is good to everyone except herself, every time she’s so cruel to herself.
Did she bite herself so hard without realizing the pain?
Thinking that this woman might have misunderstood that he jumped deliberately when he let go, causing her to bite herself fiercely in order to calm down, Baron’s heart felt as if it had been pricked by a needle.
His eyes darkened as he focused even more intensely on Enna Clark’s lips, and suddenly, he tightened his embrace, lowered his head, gazed at the marks on the little woman’s lips, and kissed them—
