Seeing Clarence’s disgusted look, Florence was a bit helpless but she was very clear about it inwardly.
Ernest’s injury was so serious that even dressing change was also extremely troublesome and tiring. Besides, he had to feed Ernest with food and water. Indeed, everything he had done was almost as if he was a full-time nursing nanny.
It was not easy for Clarence to do all these in these few days.
But, Ernest’s condition now was fine and from this, his meticulousness could indeed be seen clearly.
“Clarence, thank you very much.”
Florence looked at him and said thank you sincerely.
The disgusted expression on Clarence’s face became a little unnatural.
He waved his hand, turned around and walked out.
“What for you talk about this nonsense, it’s time for Ernst to drink water, you feed him.”
“Clarence.”
Florence stood up, looked at his back and said, “If you want to go out and if you need my help for anything, you must tell me.”
Although she could not help much, she also wanted to help him as much as she could.
Falling into such a situation, she should not let Clarence bear the responsibility for the whole thing alone.
Clarence’s footsteps paused and he continued to walk out, “Got it.”
When Clarence reached the door, he closed the door of the room thoughtfully.
Before that, he added, “There is still medicine in the room. The injury on the part of your body is quite severe too, apply ointment yourself. If you can’t apply, call me.”
“Okay.”
After Florence answered, the door of the room was closed gently from the outside.
The room became quiet and there were only Florence and Ernest left.
Florence looked down at his pale and quietly sleeping face. It still looked as handsome as before and it was so good-looking that she could not take her eyes off him. She wanted to gaze at him and guard him like this till the end of the world.
“Ernest, you must recover.”
Florence gazed at him and murmured softly.
She walked to the side and poured a cup of warm water. She then sat on the edge of his bed and moved closer to him.
She took the cup to his lips and gently fed him with water next to his pale thin lips.
The water seeped in little by little along Ernest’s dry lips.
Some water was flowing out from the corners of his mouth so Florence also hurriedly wiped it.
There were also injuries on Ernest’s neck so she could not let water flow there.
She did not dare to look down at him. She was afraid that after seeing the hideous wound on his chest, the unimaginable pain would pierce through her heart.
“Ernest, does it hurt?”
She murmured and asked.
He did not have any response and was sleeping quietly.
As if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
In fact, Florence rarely saw Ernest’s sleeping look and she had never seen Ernest being unconscious.
It was a rare thing to be able to see him lying so quietly. But, she was overcome with depression.
She hoped that he could breathe steadily and opened his eyes to see her.
She hoped that he could talk to her and call her by her name, Florence.
“Ernest, you wake up quickly. I’m waiting for you.”
“I’ll wait for you.”
Florence’s eyes blurred with tears. She bent her body and gently lay beside Ernest.
After calming down, she felt the pains burning everywhere on her body.
However, she did not have the strength to get ointment and apply it for herself.
She stared at Ernest and was reluctant to even take her eyes off him for a moment.
She had not seen him for a long time. She just wanted to look at him and be with him all the time.
She did not want to be separated from him anymore.
