The atmosphere in the bathroom suddenly freezes.
Looking at almost half naked Chester, Hannah is expressionless and dull as if her throat is blocked. For a while she can’t find a reason to refute.
"What's the matter? You are a medical student. Have you forgotten that I am a patient?"
Chester looks at her without any trace of changes in expression on his face, but his words are obviously urging her.
Hannah’s heart flutters a bit, then she grits her teeth and walks towards him.
She inherits the memory of the original owner of the body, but the attitude of the medical students towards patients is not shared by her at all. It’s too difficult for her to see a man naked without feeling embarrassed.
After taking the dry towel from the shelf, she takes a deep breath. Standing behind him, she rubs him from his shoulder.
Perhaps because of avoiding the sun all the year round, his skin is much whiter than that of the average male, but he is also strong, with fine beads of water sliding down the fine lines of his shoulder blades.
Hannah feels uneasy by looking at him, thus secretly swallowing saliva.
The voice of Chester suddenly comes from ahead, "About what happened this afternoon. Is what you said really the truth?"
Her hands suddenly stops, and she says, "You don't believe me?"
"You are close to Micheal. It is a fact, and I've seen it with my own eyes. So will I believe you're really that innocent?"
Hannah knows clearly that this matter cannot be avoided.
Although after returning to the Shahbazs, she is careful with her words and behaviors, the old Hannah was not, leaving her a bad reputation. She cannot even deny the old self’s affection for the other man.
With a glimmer of hope, she tries to deny it, "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Really?"
Chester is suddenly silent for a second. Soon she feels some force pulling her wrist, and after turning a circle, she slips, her screams echoing in the bathroom.
When she regains consciousness, she has been sitting right on Chester's leg.
Turning around, she almost hits the end of his nose.
She subconsciously struggles up, but despite the fact that Chester is crippled, he is a man of great strength, tightly grasping her wrist. Once she struggles, he grapes her tighter, and the pain is almost breaking her wrist bone.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" She bellows through the pain.
Chester warns her with his eyes, "Don’t move. I can see your eyes now when you are speaking, so that I can catch you lying.
Hannah is shocked by his gaze and does not dare to move.
