Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 288 Luke's Meticulous Care

Bianca hated the smell of disinfectant in the hospital. In her fevered delusions, memories from many

years ago came back. She gently pulled the sleeve of Luke's coat. "I don't want to see a doctor."

Luke was already worried and impatient when he saw how serious Bianca's fever was. He became

furious when Bianca acted like a child.

He hugged her tighter and started reprimanding her. "Behave. You have such a high fever. What

happens if you get sicker?"

Bianca looked at him weakly.

Luke thought that she was only throwing a tantrum. He leaned close and kissed her lips; his

movements were gentle as though he was comforting a child.

Many people were waiting in the outpatient department on the first floor.

They were unhappy when they saw Luke trying to cut in line. A hot- tempered man even yelled at him.

A doctor in his white coat noticed the commotion in the outpatient department. He pushed up his

glasses and told the nurse to get the patients to line up.

The nurse noticed Luke, and her eyes opened wide. 'Wow, what a handsome man!' She thought.

She went to Luke and was just about to say something when she was intimidated by Luke's sinister

expression.

She hastily took two steps back and looked at the busy doctor for help.

That man seemed to be in a bad mood.

The doctor was frustrated. He glanced at Luke, who was trying to cut in line, and tossed away the

fountain pen in his hand. "What are you doing? Can't you see that so many patients are waiting in line?

Get to the back!" "Enough nonsense. She's having a fever. Treat her now." Then, Luke placed Bianca

on the chair.

The doctor took a closer look at Luke. He noticed that Luke was dressed in expensive clothes, and he

might have seen Luke's impeccable features in a financial magazine before.

He was experienced enough to know that he could not afford to make that man angry.

Luke had never gone to the outpatient department or the public hospital. He did not know that he had

to queue up. Whenever he went to a hospital, there would be someone attending to him personally.

The other patients in line kept their mouths shut when they saw Luke's demonically angry face.

Helpless, the doctor said to the nurse. "Ms. Walters, please take the lady's temperature."

The nurse took the thermometer and was about to remove Bianca's clothes to take her temperature.

Before the nurse could lay a finger on Bianca's clothes, Luke snatched the thermometer and said, "Let

me do it."

He did not want Bianca to be touched by other people, including other women.

Luke delicately took Bianca's temperature.

Bianca was wrapped in a thick down jacket. Luke was worried that she might be cold, and he took off

his windbreaker and draped it over her.

The young nurse was envious of the amount of care that Luke showed Bianca. 'Handsome men are the

most responsible ones!' She thought.

On the other hand, it was the ugly ones that were unfaithful.

She remembered that she read an article on the Internet earlier. A survey found that handsome men

were less likely to have an affair, while those that look ugly but down-to-earth were often involved in

extramarital affairs, i

One could see that it was the case by looking at the popular figures in showbiz. For example, popular

actor XX Jackman, actor, producer, and director XX Washington, and famous singer XX Jovi were

known for their handsome looks as well as being faithful to their wives. They were role models when it

came to celebrity marriages.

On the other hand, certain celebrities who were not that good-looking, such as XX Thompson, who was

married to a famous model, was caught in a sex scandal... so many plain-looking celebrities were

caught in affairs, as though it was expected of them.

Seeing the handsome man in front of her take such good care of his girlfriend as though she was his

treasure, the nurse was even more determined to find a handsome boyfriend for herself.

However, the man's girlfriend seemed to be throwing a tantrum. Not only was she not grateful for the

care she received, but she even seemed to be avoiding the man's touch. The nurse felt indignant for

Luke, and at the same time, another question surfaced in her mind, 'Why do all these handsome men

have a girlfriend with a bad temper?'

Luke's hostile voice rang out, breaking the nurse's train of thought. "103.8 degrees. That's very serious!

Give her an injection now, doctor."

The doctor quickly prescribed some medicine for Bianca. The nurse prepared the syringe, rolled up

Bianca's sleeve, and rubbed her arm with an alcohol swab.

Just when the nurse was about to pierce the syringe into Bianca's arm, Bianca saw the needle and

started to shake as though she was having a nightmare...

The nurse looked at her with surprise. She thought that Bianca was scared of injections. "It won't be

painful, Miss,” she said gently.

Bianca stood up from the chair as though she had seen something horrific. She shoved the nurse's

hand away and dashed toward the exit.

She tripped over something, sprained her ankle, and nearly fell on the floor. A pair of long arms

grabbed her delicate waist in time.

"Stop this nonsense at once, Bianca!" She heard Luke's angry voice ringing next to her ears.

"I don't want an injection. Let me go! Let me go..." Bianca struggled with all her might and wailed.

However, she could not move away from Luke's vicelike grip.

She sobbed helplessly and softly. "I don't want an injection, Luke. I don't..."

No one knew how much Bianca feared needles. It was her worst nightmare.

Jennifer and her daughter had come up with multiple ways to torment Bianca. Beatings, insults, and

sleep deprivation were common occurrences. Eventually, Jennifer was afraid that Kevin might notice

the scars on Bianca's skin and they thought of something sinister - They would use long needles to

poke at various spots on Bianca's body...

Back then, Bianca was young and malnourished. She could not put up a resistance against Jennifer.

The needle wounds were excruciatingly painful, but they were invisible to the naked eye and healed

very fast. Whenever she complained to her father, he would say that she was making up stories.

The nightmare stopped when she moved out to a dorm in high school. However, that had caused her to

be deathly afraid of needles.

The hospital staff and the other patients looked at each other. They could not understand why that

young woman was so afraid of needles.

However, they shied away from Luke's horrible gaze and instead whispered to each other.

Bianca was on the verge of a mental breakdown. Her silky hair was disheveled.

She tried to pry away Luke's arms that were on her waist. "Please... I beg you... no injections..."

Luke was almost losing his patience.

He dragged her forcefully to the doctor's table and sat her down in front of her doctor.

In his anger, he pushed her too hard, and Bianca's stomach knocked onto the corner of the table.

She gasped out of pain.

"Stop fooling around, Bianca."

Luke was never known to be a patient man.

Bianca's public tantrum was already far more than he could tolerate...
