His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1584

The injury did look a little scary at a glance.

"I applied some ointment last night. It was dark in color, which is why the injury looks a little scary." Avery returned the phone to Elliot. "It's not as painful today as it was yesterday."

"It is better to be safe and go to the hospital, " Elliot insisted. "It's inconvenient for you to apply the ointment yourself at home."

"I don’t find it inconvenient." She then offered up another random reason, "My mother said that it's bad luck to start the year with a visit to the hospital."

Elliot was speechless and so was the doctor.

Avery was a doctor too from what they remembered. It came as a surprise that she would say something so superstitious.

A sick person ought to visit the hospital as soon as possible, regardless of the occasion.

Nevertheless, Elliot did not question her.

"Did you bring any medication?" he asked the doctor.

The doctor immediately took out the ointment he brought.

"Could you treat her swelling please," he said.

"Of course," the doctor replied before turning to Avery. "Miss Tate, I can come over every day and apply the ointment for you, but you shouldn't wash your hair anytime soon. Stay home as much as you can, and once the new year holidays are over, you should go to the hospital and get it checked. How did you injure yourself though?"

That question caused the atmosphere to drop down to a freezing point.

Elliot's Adam's apple bobbed in his throat and he was about to speak when Avery said, "I accidentally fell."

"Oh! It must be a very hard fall then.

Lemme guess, it was the bathroom?" The doctor took out some antiseptic and disinfected her. "Don't underestimate the trauma from a fall. I've seen people with broken calves and paralysis on one half of the body after a fall. Such cases require several months of rest before there's any improvement..."

"Didn't your elders teach you about new year taboos?" Avery asked curtly. "Unlucky stuff are best not to be mentioned at the start of the year."

The doctor was speechless.

Elliot looked at her calm appearance =c)? VJW< asked, "Are you sure it doesn’t hurt anymore?”
