Hearing that his arm would still be hung from his chest, Julien frowned, as he didn’t want to hang his arm. But in the end, he didn't complain.
"I'll get some water to clean your arm," Sydney said, looking at the remaining plaster on Julien's left arm.
Julien couldn't endure the plaster covering his arm, and he agreed. "Okay."
Sydney loosened his arm and went to the bathroom.
As soon as she left, Julien returned to his usual indifference immediately and didn't pretend to be enduring pain.
With his arms crossed, Finn asked with a half-smile, "Well, do you stop pretending to be weak?"
Julien glanced up at him, not wanting to answer him.
But Finn added, "You really shocked me. I didn't expect that you would pretend to be weak to arouse her sympathy.”
"Only in this way can I approach her, and she won't push me away," Julien explained in a low voice.
Finn smiled. "You’re quite lowly in love."
Julien lowered his eyes. "As long as I can make up for the mistake I've made before, I don't mind being lowly."
Moreover, he was lowly only in front of Sydney.
And in his opinion, being lowly to his beloved woman was not humiliating.
On the contrary, it could show that he really loved her, so he could be lowly.
"I've got the water." Sydney came out of the bathroom with a basin of warm water.
Finn stepped aside. "When you clean his arm, remember to be gentle."
"Okay, I see." Sydney nodded. She put the basin down, unfolded the towel and put it on Julien's arm gently. Then she wiped the remaining plaster and medicine off his arm carefully.
She wiped his arm intently.
Julien gazed at her without even blinking.
It seemed that he couldn't see her if he blinked.
Finn was toying with the scalpel. When he saw Sydney and Julien, he suddenly thought that he should leave.
But he wouldn't leave.
This was his place!
Sydney noticed that Julien had been staring at her.
She paused for a moment and turned to look at Julien, "What's up?"
Julien shook his head. "Nothing."
Sydney tilted her head, feeling confused.
'Nothing?'
'If there is nothing, why is he staring at me all the time?’
But since Julien was reluctant to explain, Sydney wouldn't force him. She turned her head to look at his arm and continued to wipe it.
After Sydney wiped all the remaining
plaster and medicine off Julien's arm, Finn applied the ointment to Julien's arm and then bandaged it.
Although Julien's arm was hung from his chest again, it was not as heavy as before, as there was no plaster. Though he could tolerate his arm being hung, he still felt it was inconvenient.
Back in the car, Zach reported, "Mr. Flint, I've arranged for some people to find out all the doctors and medical teams in the world who are studying amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. I believe we will find all the doctors and medical teams within two days."
Julien raised his chin. "After you identify all the doctors and medical teams, ask people to watch where the doctors and medical teams work." "Yes, Mr. Flint." Zach nodded.
Sydney didn't speak, because she didn’t know what to say.
She was not as powerful as Julien, so it was impossible for her to ask so many people to execute her order.
Thus, she was not able to look for Lyra on her own and had to rely on Julien.
Since Julien helped her, she believed him and wouldn't interfere.
Half an hour later, Sydney arrived at Shallow Bay.
She carried her bag and was about to get out of the car.
But Julien grabbed her suddenly. "Wait. I have something to tell you."
