Chapter 340
I couldn’t believe that my nose was bleeding. How embarrassing!
I’d only seen things like that happening on TV before, and I’d thought that it was done just for comedic effect. I never imagined that it would happen to me.
“Mae, your nose is bleeding!” Brandon exclaimed, raising his hand to wipe it for me.
But I reacted faster, quickly pinching my nostrils and tilting my head back. “It’s the heat.”
“Is it because you haven’t been drinking enough water? Brandon asked, very concerned.
“Yes, I guess so…” I had no choice but to blame it on dehydration.
Brandon took out some tissues for me. “You’ve been running around a lot these past few days, and haven’t had time to drink enough water. I should have paid more attention.”
He was blaming himself again.
But, in a way, he was right.
Even though the nosebleed wasn’t from dehydration, it was indeed because of him.
Thankfully, the nosebleed stopped after a short while. Brandon immediately picked me up in his arms.
Among the throngs of people in the hospital, he was holding me like a giant doll. There wasn’t a single person who didn’t stare.
I couldn’t stand it.
“Why are you carrying me? I can walk on my own. Put me down,” I protested, hitting him lightly.
Brandon didn’t respond. I knew the more I fussed, the more people would start speculating, so I just buried my head in his chest.
In the end, I didn’t go to Lisa’s resting room but returned to Ellie’s ward instead.
Ellie, being a fellow woman, had some sanitary pads ready. Brandon even went out of his way to buy me some leak–proof panties to change into.
I didn’t know how other girls interacted with their boyfriends. But I felt pretty embarrassed having him buy me leak–proof panties and sanitary pads.
Ellie had to have been tired, as she was sleeping soundly. Neither Brandon nor I disturbed her.
