Unloved Unwanted Unstoppable (Seraphina and Dominic) novel Chapter 317

He stood back up. "...I'll go get the nurse."

He turned and practically fled the room.

Seraphina watched the blush on his ears and let out an amused smile.

She had never seen Gideon make a face like that before.

This ruthless corporate titan, who could turn the business world upside down with a flick of his wrist, actually blushed so easily.

It turned out Gideon Cole had a surprisingly endearing side.

Gideon quickly returned with a nurse.

The nurse pulled back the blankets and conducted a swift examination. Her eyes lingered for an extra second on Seraphina's thickly casted left leg.

Gideon's gaze also dropped to that leg.

The cast was massive.

His expression remained stoic, but an inexplicable knot tightened in his chest.

After using the restroom, the nurse helped Seraphina back into bed, gave them a few routine instructions, and left.

Once again, it was just the two of them in the room.

Gideon carefully tucked the blankets around her.

Seraphina felt a bit awkward. "Gideon, you really don't have to..."

"Friends don't keep score over things like this."

He cut her off, his hands not stopping as he smoothed the covers over her shoulders.

Seraphina opened her mouth but decided against saying anything more.

Pushing back further would just seem ungrateful.

She simply closed her eyes, leaned back against the pillows, and let him take care of her.

Right at that moment, the door to the hospital room was pushed open.

Tristan Spencer strode inside.

A thin layer of sweat coated his temples, looking as if he had sprinted all the way there.

Seeing Seraphina lying in the hospital bed, he froze in his tracks, a wave of sharp heartache washing over him.

Then, his eyes swept the room and landed directly on Gideon.

The man was sitting right by the bed, still holding the edge of her blanket.

Tristan's feet stopped moving, though he desperately wanted to keep his attention focused entirely on Seraphina.

"Seraphina."
