Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 2

Theodore raised his head and flung away her wrist. His cold eyes scanned Everleigh's face mercilessly and his voice was frightening.

"Do you know that I hate seeing your face?"

Was it not enough for her face to appear in his dreams? Why did she have to appear in front of him?

Everleigh quivered.

She stared into his cold and disgusted eyes blankly. Her throat felt dry and she could not even breathe.

Naturally, he resented her!

She did not want him to know that she was flustered. She pretended to be calm and averted her gaze. When she realized that the back of his hand was still bleeding, she turned to get some medical tape. She struggled to find her voice to speak.

"You're my patient."

She tore off a small section of tape. She wanted to fix the needle when Theodore's voice rang in her ears. There was a hint of loathing in his voice.

"Get out of here!"

Her hands froze. Her eyes flickered but she tried her best to keep her voice from breaking. She withdrew her hand and replied, "Then, I'll get the nurse to deal with it."

"I don't want to repeat myself." Theodore's voice grew colder and harsher.

The tension in the ward was palpable.

He felt sick when he saw her.

Everleigh felt a pang of sadness in her heart and replied dryly, "Okay." She put away the stethoscope and test report. She continued, "Okay... Just ring the bell if you need anything."

All she got in response was silence.
