Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 6

The next morning, Benedict, the Director, informed Everleigh that she was no longer in charge of Theodore. She was assigned to another VIP ward. Coincidentally, it was right next to Theodore's room.

Everleigh met many annoying patients before but it was the first time for her to deal with someone as tiresome as the patient before her at the moment.

"Does it hurt over here?"

Everleigh asked as she pressed her hand on the man's chest.

"It's not here. It's a little further down," the man replied.

"Here?"

"A little further down."

Everleigh was speechless.

Her hand was already on the man's lower abdomen...

She frowned and replied unhappily, "Mr. Quelch, the records show that your heart is not in a good shape, that was why you were hospitalized. Well, if I go a little further down, I'm afraid you have problems with your prostate. I can get you a urologist."

In just one morning, Mr. Quelch pressed the bell over eight times. He was complaining about suffering from pain all over his body. The nurse could not do anything because he would insist on having Everleigh to check on him.

"No need for that. It's just a small problem." Mr. Quelch suddenly grabbed Everleigh's hand and caressed her wrist. He complimented, "Dr. Trevino, your hand is so beautiful."

The lecherous look in the man's eyes almost made Everleigh throw up. She withdrew her hand hurriedly and concluded, "Mr. Quelch, I think you're all right now. I'll get back to work."

Everleigh turned to leave without looking back. She should just stay away from that guy.

As soon as she stepped out of the door, she spotted a familiar figure striding towards her.

Theodore was returning to his ward after getting an endoscopic procedure. Everleigh did not know why but there was no nurse caring for him.

In the corridor, she met his eyes and the air went still.
