After she confirmed that he had put on his pants, she opened the door and walked in.
Lucas was standing motionlessly in front of the toilet bowl in the washroom.
He might have learned his lesson from his fall just now, so he did not dare to move impulsively now.
Cordy gave him a hand, and he then leaned onto her without a tinge of embarrassment.
He made use of her righteously.
She then helped him into the wheelchair and pushed him into the ward.
After exhausting herself again, she managed to help him to bed, and she was about to return to her bed to rest.
However, Lucas stopped her out of the blue and called out, "Cordy."
"Is there anything else?"
"I suddenly feel like wiping my body."
Cordy was at a loss for words. She wanted to ensure that she had not heard him wrongly.
"You and Dicky smell so good from your bath, but I smell like nothing but sweat. I feel so uncomfortable, but I can't shower. Can't I wipe my body too?" Lucas became displeased by her stare, so he increased his voice.
"Can you lower your voice? Dicky needs to sleep," Cordy said while holding her anger back.
"I want to wipe my body clean. I feel ill at ease." Lucas lowered his voice, but he did not want to compromise at all.
"Let me call the care worker over for you."
There were two rooms in the VVIP ward. There was still one room outside, and the care worker slept on the sofa.
She did not call the care worker over just now because she felt that she could do it. It was so late now, so she did not disturb the care worker's rest.
Now this kind of affair was not something she could do, and Lucas did not refuse either.
So, Cordy walked out of the room but found that the care worker was not around.
It was so strange. It was in the middle of the night. Where did the care worker go?
She did not have the care worker's contact number either.
After that, she gritted her teeth and returned to the ward.
However, Lucas had started to take off his hospital gown.
"If I say the care worker isn't around, can you wipe your body clean on your own?" Cordy questioned.
Consequently, Lucas knitted his brows.
