Who Knew My Assigned Mechanic Husband Was a Big Shot? novel Chapter 177

Sloane stubbornly refused Logan's help.

She had finally regained her voice, though it was still a raspy whisper. "I can do it myself."

Even though the injury was strictly isolated to her ribs, any major movement with her arms or legs sent shockwaves of agony through her torso. She had to move with excruciating slowness.

As she gingerly leaned down to slip on her sandals, a brutal spike of pain tore through her chest.

She instinctively grabbed her side, cold sweat immediately beading on her forehead.

Watching her struggle, Logan felt a surge of panic.

"Just let me carry you," he said firmly.

Before she could protest, he scooped her up into his arms and carried her straight into the bathroom.

After gently setting her down on her feet, he obligingly flipped up the toilet seat lid for her.

But he didn't make a move to leave.

"Get out," Sloane croaked.

There was absolutely no way she was using the toilet with him hovering over her.

Worried she might twist wrong and aggravate the fracture, Logan insisted, "Let me help you sit down first."

"No. Get out," Sloane repeated, her tone hardening.

"..." Realizing she wasn't going to budge, Logan finally sighed. "Fine. I'll wait right outside."

He turned around and stood in the doorway, his back to her.

"Close the door," Sloane demanded.

Logan muttered under his breath, "It's not like I haven't seen it all before."

He pulled the door shut, but he stubbornly stayed planted inside the bathroom.

Sloane shot him a withering glare until he finally rolled his eyes and stepped out into the hall.

Wincing in pain, Sloane struggled to undo her pants and finally managed to use the toilet.

But when it came time to flush, she physically couldn't press down hard enough.

She tried twice, the button making a hollow, clicking sound, but no water flowed.

Hearing her struggling through the door, Logan opened it and stepped inside, reaching out to press the flush button for her.

Mortified and feeling gross, Sloane didn't want him anywhere near the toilet.
