Chapter 578
Lucian noticed how she was behaving, and his hands that were carrying her tightened.
The three children alltugged Lucian’s clothes as they followed after him. Their eyes were locked onto the woman in his ann.
Lucian carried Roxanne all the way to a nearby clinic. Once they arrived, he carefully placed her down on the chair.
It was clear that the clinic’s doctor had dealt with such injuries before, for he was advising Roxanne as lic cleaned her wound, “It’s comfortable to run on the beach without shoes, but it’ll be hard to see what’s hidden in the sand at night. Please be more carcful in the future.”
Roxanne agreed as lier face reddened slightly in embarrassment.
“It’s not a serious injury, but you have to take good care of it. Be careful when you walk during these two days, and try not to apply pressure on it. Furthermore, the wound must not get wet,” the doctor reminded her after he was done.
Roxanne’s eyebrows were furrowed as she tried to endure the pain. Before she could even react to the doctor’s advice, Lucian, who had been by her side, answered on her behalf. “All right. Thank you, doctor.”
The doctor thought that they were married, and thus he sincerely advised Lucian. “Go home and take good care of your wife. It’ll be hard for her to move around with a leg injury.”
Upon hearing that, Roxanne instinctively tried to explain, “You’ve misunderstood. We’re not-”
“I will” Lucian interrupted in a low voice.
Seeing both of their reactions, the doctor chuckled kilowingly. “Are you fighting with each other? If you two weren’t married, why was there such a grand entrance? I was cleaning your wound, but this man seemed to be more anxious than you are.”
Roxanne frowned slightly as she looked up at the man next to her. A look of confusion flashed across her cyes.
Lucian, on the other hand, nodded and made his way to settle the bill with the doctor. He then carne back to her.
Noticing that he was bending over her, Roxannc’s body stitlened, and was about to push him away, “I can walk.”
Just as she spoke, she had already been carried up into the air.
Roxanne made a soft sound of surprise as she grabbed onto his strong arm subconsciously.
