Chapter 81 Tony brought the first-aid kit over in a short while.
He immediately opened it, which was fully stocked with the basic essentials. He took out the herbal tonic and looked at the manufacturing date under the bottle. “These ointments are stocked for emergency purposes. Thank God it isn’t expired yet.”
He then passed the herbal tonic to Molly.
“Thanks.” When Molly was about to apply it herself, Ben stopped her.
“Just a second, Mommy.”
The triplets worked together with each other. “Mommy, you sprained your ankle, so you should rub it to treat the bruise.”
“I know. I can do it myself.” Molly nodded. ‘I’m a doctor. Of course I know what to do.’
Ben argued, “No way. You’re a patient, mommy. It isn’t treatment time either. Besides, you’re not strong enough. The pain will only worsen if you don’t rub it now.” “I think Uncle Sean should do it. He’s strong, so he can definitely rub the bruise for you, and you’ll heal faster. It will be inconvenient for you if you do it yourself, Mommy. I’m afraid you don’t have enough strength for it either,” Alex suggested as he looked at his father. Ben followed along, “That’s right! We’re kids, so we aren’t strong enough either. It’s best if Uncle Sean helps you.”
Molly wanted to say that she could do it herself. She was a doctor anyway, so she knew how to do it.
But Claudia had already run to Sean and asked him with her head tilted up, “Can you, Uncle Sean? Can you rub my mommy’s bruise?”
Sean was still in a daze when he looked down at the triplets. He was taken aback when their eyes met. After some hesitation, he eventually said, “I can help if Dr. May doesn’t mind.”
