The doctor was smart and sophisticated. He tightly held the tweezers and calmly treated the wound of Molly while saying, "Despite previous good treatment, the wound in her back has been infected and inflamed now. The fiber and other foreign materials on the sweater have entered the wound and hadn't been cleaned up in time. I'll have to clean the wound. It will hurt, but it's our only choice!"
Eric frowned and opened his mouth slightly. He wanted to say something, but finally he gave up. He twitched his mouth and said nothing.
"Ouch, it hurts!" Molly groaned again with a sigh and her eyes quivering. "Oh, oh, it hurts so bad! Brian.... that hurts. Help me!"
Molly kept on moaning. It seemed to be the only way she could escape from the pain. Eric was far-away so he couldn't hear that, but the doctor heard her clearly.
Stunned, the doctor paused, but only for a second, then he continued.
'Who is this girl? It's amazing that she seems to know both Eric and Brian very well. Eric cares for her a lot and carried her here, but she calls for Brian in a coma. My god, what's the matter with them? Generally, people tend to subconsciously call some people in a coma, or when they are uneasy, and the names are often the most important ones in their life or the scariest!'
The doctor had no idea about Molly and he couldn't figure out what Brain was to Molly, but there was no good man in the Long family.
"Ouch, it hurts...." Molly tried to get away from the burning pain in her back and her face was scraped up.
Eric's face darkened steadily because he had no clue why Molly was in the hospital and he knew that Brain wouldn't allow her to go to the hospital on her own, not to mention the fact the hospital had sent a doctor to Brian's villa last night.
But why were her eyes so full of despair?
Who had slapped her so hard?
Was that the reason for her despair?
Suddenly, the door of the ward was opened as Eric was pondering, and the whole air in the ward seemed to be cooler than usual right away.
Brian came inside with a hand in his pocket. He glanced at Molly and coldly asked, "What's up? Why is her wound open again?"
Eric shrugged his shoulders, and said casually, "I have no idea!"
Brian frowned slightly and sulked. His sharp eyes were burning markedly but his voice was rather clam and indifferent. "Well, figure it out right away!"
"Yes, sir!" Tony replied and left the ward at once.
"Oh, oh, ouch...."
A heavy, suffering groan came from the bed. The doctor frowned. He knew that it hurts when you clean a wound. But usually patients stop groaning when they go numb after a while, whereas Molly was groaning even in a coma. He was afraid someone was going to kick his ass.
The doctor peeped at Brain and found him looking at him gloomily with squinting eyes.
The doctor imperceptibly swallowed. Though he could manage dangerous Eric, Brian's gaze was sharp like a knife and he felt uneasy.
He sped up his work.
