Let's Get Married Chapter 563: The First Care After She Wakes Up

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Two weeks pass in a blink of an eye. During which, Rex keeps staying in the ward without leaving. He

has moved almost half of his possessions in the ward. The Y Hospital is not as good as Karl's Hospital.

It is a public hospital and Rex is not allowed to do so at first. But because of the special patient and

Karl, the hospital manager has no choice but to give way to Rex and let him do whatever he wants.

Lily's burn treatment is as troublesome as expected. Although under Karl's control, the wound doesn't

have an infection or other complications, just recovering from the burn is painful enough.

Karl introduces an autogenous skin regeneration technique. It is an injectable treatment. He injects a

solution from his lab into her wound. Each injection is five milligrams. In other words, a total of fifteen

needles would be needed to inject all the wounds on her back.

At first, Lily doesn't feel any pain because the burn is so severe that her nerves are numb. But as the

treatment progresses, the nerves are activated and she starts to feel pain. The needle is two

centimeters long and every time Lily has to bite the towel to endure the agony.

Rex is suffering, too. He watches her as she receives the injection. The scene is so shocking. For

many times, he looks away when the needle is halfway through her. But he could not help but look

back when he hears her low cries of pain.

After the injection is completed, the solution began to work under her skin. It helps her skin to recover

and regenerate itself, but the side effect is that it's extremely itchy.

Lily remembered that one year, she had urticaria. At that time, her entire body was covered in large red

lumps. Those lumps were first light red, but they slowly turned purple, and that was when it itched the

most. She had to apply an antipruritic ointment to stop herself from scratching it.

But now, the itch is several times stronger than the urticaria. It is a kind of itch that slowly emitted from

her inner skin at all times. She could not apply any antipruritic. Otherwise, the solution wouldn't work.

The pain is unbearable, and the itch is even worse.

When the itch reaches a certain degree, her body goes cold as goose bumps crowd on her skin. The

clinical reaction is only half an hour, but she feels as if half a year has passed.

Rex could do nothing but watch helplessly.

For several times, he has suggested that the injection should be stopped. He is well-prepared. It

doesn't matter to what extent she could recover. He doesn't want her to experience such pain while he

can do nothing about it.

Lily doesn't know what her back looks like. Although everyone keeps avoiding talking about it, she

knows it must not look good.

It must be extremely ugly, otherwise, why doesn't anyone tell her about it?

One day, a police captain comes to the hospital with his subordinates to look for Rex and ask questions

about the case. Rex doesn't want Lily to hear about it and leaves the ward.

"Keep it short. I don't have that much time." He looks at them coldly and says in an unfriendly tone.

The officers come with the captain have no idea about the details of the incident or Rex's identity and

are displeased with Rex's attitude. Just as they're about to talk back to Rex, his boss stops them.

"Hawk is arrested, but he refuses to confess his crime. Although we have plenty of evidence, some of it

doesn't match his statement. The interrogation has gone on for days with no progress and he has

always made a request." At this point, the captain pauses and looks at Rex hesitantly.

Rex sneers. "You're here now. What's holding you back?"

The captain turns his face away and points his tongue at the inside of his mouth. His cheeks bulge out.

He looks at Rex again and said, "He wants to see you."

Rex laughs at that but in a cold way. "He has been arrested, and the suspects and evidence related

have also been secured. Any of his crimes would be enough to get him the death penalty. And now

you're telling me, there's nothing you can do?"

"There is a way, but his testimony and the information he is holding back are crucial to the sentencing

of others."

A criminal like Hawk could not be captured easily. They need to be in the right place at the right time.

Any wrong would lead to failure. As one of the few big shots in the smuggling case in Country Y, Hawk

gets a lot of secrets.

Rex understands what he means. But because of that, the coldness in his eyes becomes even more

intense.

"Are you asking me to trick him again and play some mind games to lure a few more key characters

out of him?"

The captain meets his gaze and spends great energy saying the single word out, "Yes."

Rex doesn't say anything. He just looks straight at him. He doesn't need to say anything, and the tough

man in front of him understands.

He has almost lost Lily for this case, and now they demand that he should continue to work hard for

them?

He doesn't know what he should feel.

Although the two policemen behind them do not know what has happened, the invisible pressure in the

room made their throats dry.

Facing his gloomy face, the captain forces himself to insist for a long time before he lowers his head

and puts both of his hands on his sides. He lets out a deep breath. "Forget it. It is hard for you to

accept."

That being said, there is still hope in his gaze. Rex says nothing, and even his expression doesn't

change. Only then does the captain give up and glances at the two subordinates behind him, "I never

came. Let's go."

...

When Rex returns to the ward, Lily's back is not so itchy. She lies on the bed. Just as she is about to

heave a sigh of relief, she sees the man strides in.

She looks at the man next to the bed out of the corner of her eye. Her gaze pauses on his unusually

gloomy face and wonders who has provoked and upset him in such a short time when he was out.

Although he hasn't been happy these past few days, it is the first time she sees him so annoyed.

His face is so dark.

Lily doesn't intend to pay any attention to him, but for some reason, she is uncomfortable seeing him

sitting on the side without saying a word.

It is probably because he has taken good care of her the past few days. She is not heartless and

cannot treat him like a stranger.

After thinking for a while, Lily decides that she couldn't be an ungrateful woman and asks tentatively,

"What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

Rex is thinking about the case and his thought stops at her interruption. He looks over, meets her clear

eyes, and is somewhat stunned.

Seeing that he just stares at her silently, Lily murmurs in confusion, "What happened? Are you too tired

to think?"

The next second, the man sitting suddenly bends down and moves closer to her. His face stops less

than five centimeters away from her as his warm breathing spraying on her face. He fails to hide the

tremble in his voice, which betrays his excitement. "Are you caring about me?"

He has been by her side for so many days. Apart from eating and sleeping, he has always fixed his

gaze at her. This is the first time she voluntarily asks about his feelings since she woke up.

How could he not be excited about it?
