Chapter 189 Steven Carries Her to the Hospital
She said with jealousy in her heart, "We haven't finished discussing that project yet, Steven.Why don't we find a restaurant and talk over dinner?"
"Let go." Steven's eyes were like sharp knives.
Vivian didn't dare disobey. She bit her lip in resentment and glared at Nora in the rain.
What an act!
The moment Steven ignored her, she pretended to fall! Bitch!
Steven held up the umbrella and walked over to Nora.
All she could see were his polished leather shoes.
But Nora didn't look at him anymore. She kept her head down and stuffed the man's wedding ring into her bag.
She didn't want to embarrass herself again.
"What is that?" Steven noticed the small box in her hand.
"Nothing,"Nora replied without emotion. "Why did you come over?" His voice sounded deep in the rain.
"I wanted to ask you to dinner, but when I got to York Development Group, I received your message." That divorce message. "If I had known, I wouldn't have come."
If she had known he was with Vivian, she definitely wouldn't have come to humiliate herself.
Maybe Steven wanted to divorce her for Vivian.After all, she was a noble lady from a respected family,with such a good background and so beautiful. If she were a man, she'd be attracted too.
"You should have called me." Steven looked at her with a frown.
Nora looked up at him.
Why was he unhappy?
Was it because she came over without notice and made Vivian misunderstand?
At this thought, Nora's heart sank even further.
Just then, Clarence drove up in a BMW.
Clarence deliberately chose a cheaper car, not daring to drive a luxury car for fear of raising Nora's suspicions.
"Mr. York, let me take Ms. Adams to the hospital." Clarence got out of the car, about to carry Nora into the car. "Ms. Adams, you can't walk on that leg. Let me carry you into the car."
He bent down.
"Clarence." Steven couldn't help calling him, his brow deeply furrowed.
"What's wrong?" Clarence was puzzled.
Steven handed the umbrella to Clarence, bent down, and personally picked up Nora.
A faint cool fragrance surrounded her.
Nora was surprised and immediately refused, "You don't need to carry me, I can walk by myself."
He was about to divorce her, but Nora didn't want him to hold her.
Besides, it was for another woman that he wanted a divorce.
If Vivian saw this, she'd probably be angry, right?
Steven shouldn't do this!
"Your ankle is sprained. How can you walk?" He looked at Nora in his arms.
Nora said sullenly, "I still have one good foot to walk on. Even if I limp, I can walk to the car by myself."
"You're injured, so stop talking nonsense." Steven forcefully carried her into the car.
Then he got in too.
Nora was soaking wet and moved inward. "It's just going to the hospital for a check-up, you don't need to come with us."
Steven ignored her and just ordered, "Clarence, drive."
Clarence obediently drove.
"Put your foot over here, let me see." Steven looked at her foot.
"No." Nora instinctively refused.
Steven's face darkened slightly, seeming very unhappy. "If you don't lift your foot up, I'll do it myself."
"Why do you care about this?" Nora was angry and refused to cooperate.
"One." Steven started counting directly.
"Even if you count to a hundred, I won't let you see!" Nora was very angry, her attitude firm.
Steven simply stopped counting. His large hand reached down and forcefully grabbed her leg.
His strength was great, not something she could resist.
Nora was pulled so hard that her body tilted and her head knocked toward the car window...
"Ah!"
At the critical moment, Steven raised his hand to protect her forehead, preventing her from hitting the window, but his palm was pressed down by the impact.
Steven frowned slightly in pain.
Nora froze, becoming nervous. "Steven, are you okay?"
"If you had cooperated earlier, this wouldn't have happened." Steven glared at her unhappily, and after confirming her head was fine, he looked at her ankle.
Her ankle was wrapped in transparent stockings and was already swollen.
Steven pressed on it, and Nora gasped in pain.
Steven's eyes showed reproach. "You don't even watch where you're walking on stairs. What are those eyes of yours for?"
Unexpectedly, the first words were blame again.
Nora retorted, "What does it have to do with you? We're getting divorced anyway. If I want to hit my head, I'll hit my head. If I want to fall, I'll fall!"
Steven was speechless and shook his head. "Stupid woman."
Nora was so angry she almost cried.
It was only because he insisted on pulling her leg that she fell!
The car soon arrived at the hospital.
Clarence brought over a wheelchair. "Mr. York, let Ms. Adams sit in the wheelchair. I'll push her for the examination."
Steven wrapped his arm around her waist and placed Nora in the wheelchair.
Nora was stunned.
Why did he say he wanted a divorce but still treat her so well?
Nora couldn't understand Steven's thoughts anymore.
Throughout the whole process of seeing the doctor, he was very attentive, listening to the doctor's words and pushing her to get a CT scan.
Nora was a bit dazed.
With her foot injured like this, if he hadn't brought her to the hospital and busily pushed her to take the elevator and such, she really couldn't have managed it herself.
Nora's heart couldn't help but soften.
Angry that he wanted a divorce, yet drowning in his kindness.
She had no resistance to him at all...
CT room.
Only Nora could go in alone.
Steven said to her gently, "It's just taking a scan, it'll be done soon. Don't be afraid, okay?"
She looked at him. "I'm not afraid."
"Go in then."
Nora looked back at him and wheeled herself in.
The CT room was a bit cold. Nora inexplicably missed Steven's warmth, but when she came out of the CT room, Steven was already gone.
At that moment, Nora couldn't describe what she felt. She just felt abandoned.
She couldn't help feeling wronged.
She covered her eyes with her hand and started crying.
"Why are you crying?" A pair of black leather shoes walked steadily over.
Nora suddenly looked up.
She saw Steven carrying a bag of clothes, hurrying over from the other end of the corridor.
Nora wiped her tears. "Where did you go?"
"I went downstairs to buy you clothes." Steven squatted down and looked at her red nose. "Your clothes got wet in the rain. You can't keep wearing them, or you'll catch a cold."
He had just gone to buy Nora clothes, including underwear.
Such intimate items as underwear couldn't be bought by Clarence, of course, so he had Clarence handle the admission procedures.
"Your foot looks pretty serious, so I had Clarence handle the admission. It's pouring outside, so stay in the hospital tonight." Steven squatted and talked to her.
"Is something wrong with my foot?" she asked him.
"Let me go check." Steven went to get the report.
The report showed that Nora's foot had a soft tissue injury. The doctor prescribed some medicine for her to apply at home.
Steven pushed Nora to the ward upstairs.
All her clothes were soaked by the rain, and she couldn't lie directly on the bed.
Steven said, "Let me change your clothes. It's cold, wearing wet clothes for too long will make you catch a cold."
"I can change myself. Just put the clothes on the bed and go out." Nora didn't want him to change her clothes.
She had never been completely undressed in front of him.
"What part of you haven't I seen?" Steven was a bit unhappy and raised his hand to unbutton her.
Nora's face flushed with embarrassment as she blocked him with her hand. "I just don't want you to change them."
The domineering Steven wouldn't listen to her. "If you keep dawdling like this, you'll definitely catch a cold."
He pulled off her coat in one motion, revealing the light-colored shirt underneath.
The clothes were all wet, clinging tightly to her body, showing off her curvy figure.
"I don't want you to change them." Nora resisted fiercely.
Steven grabbed both her small hands, clasped them together, raised them up, and pressed them above her head.
Nora's body arched forward, making her chest even more prominent. She was extremely embarrassed. "Steven!"
His gaze fixed on her chest, his voice slightly deep. "I told you, what part of you haven't I seen? Why so shy?"
He held her with one hand and used the other to unbutton her shirt.
Several buttons slowly came undone.
Revealing the white sexy underwear underneath.
Steven's eyes deepened. "Wearing this again?"
No wonder she was so shy, turns out she was wearing this underwear and was afraid he'd find out.
Nora was ashamed and angry, twisting her slender body in his grasp. "Don't look at me!"
"I want to look." He was unreasonable.
Nora's nose stung. "You're just that kind of annoying person!"
"If you find me so annoying, why do you keep clinging to me?" He lowered his eyes to look at her; this behavior was both arrogant and ambiguous.
Especially with the two of them so close.
Steven breathed lightly on her chest, deliberately making her hot.
Nora broke out in sweat. "Stop playing around."
She was really getting angry.
"Who's playing with you? I'm changing your clothes; you're the one not cooperating." His palm reached under her skirt and pulled down her stockings.
Nora's body stiffened.
However, the stockings weren't completely removed; half still remained on her legs.
Steven paused, his eyes heating up.
It inexplicably felt like playing some kind of intimate game.
Nora felt the same way. Stared at by his burning gaze, she felt uncomfortable and said in a drawn-out voice, "Hurry up!"
Steven hesitated, his voice becoming particularly seductive. "Hurry up and do what?"
Nora's face turned red, unable to say it out loud. She couldn't very well say, hurry up and tear off my stockings, could she?
How suggestive would that sound?
"Just hurry up anyway." Her arms were being held and were getting sore, yet he was still leisurely looking. What was there to look at?
"Alright, since you want it so much..." He said ambiguously, his large hand moving under her skirt and pulling off the remaining stockings.
Two smooth legs were exposed, very alluring.
Steven raised an eyebrow and looked at her for a while, then pulled off her clothes and carried her to the hospital bed.
Nora's face was very red. She said angrily, "Aren't you going to help me put on clothes?"
"Put them on while lying down." Steven's voice was hoarse, his gaze lingering on her body.
Lingering here and there, the atmosphere became more and more ambiguous.
Nora felt her body heating up. She bit her teeth and pulled the blanket over herself.
The enticing scene was instantly covered.
Steven smiled. "Are you really that shy?"
"Yes!" She wasn't that shameless.
"I've seen it many times already." Steven picked up a pair of panties, smiling as he asked her, "Size S, should be your size, right?"
Nora suddenly didn't want to wear them anymore.
She didn't even dare look at him.
