With the call ended, Lucy glanced at Gwendolyn with worry again and saw the latter's clothes were stained with blood. It was a harrowing sight. “Just hold on a little longer, Gwen. We'll reach the hospital soon.”
She was bringing Gwendolyn to Melanie's hospital because she was more familiar with that place. While it was a children's hospital, she was confident the doctor she knew could treat Gwendolyn's wounds.
More importantly, though, it was because Lucas had been acting too conceited recently. Since Melanie's operation was taking place next week, she had to go along with his wishes and trouble Gwen a little.
Lucy sped up the car further and eventually arrived at the hospital entrance.
Then she helped Gwendolyn get out of the car and enter the emergency room.
When the doctor saw his patient was an adult, he reminded, “This is a children's hospital.”
Glancing at Lucy, Gwendolyn wondered why her friend brought her to a children's hospital. Why is she acting so foolishly? I thought she was the most intelligent person I'd ever known.
In response, Lucy pulled out her phone and dialed a number. “Don't worry, Gwendolyn. I know a doctor here, and he's very handsome. He'll treat your wound personally in a while.”
It was then the call connected.
Thus, she let go of her friend. “Take a seat first.”
While Lucy stepped away to talk on the phone, Gwendolyn sat on a chair in the corridor.
Blood dripped down from Gwendolyn's head as she endured the pain. How much longer do I need to wait? It'll be great if I can stop this pain immediately.
Ever since she was a child, she had been a sensitive person. Even a minor scratch would cause her immense pain.
Moments later, Lucy returned to her friend with a doctor and helped Gwendolyn up. “Can you treat her injury, Einar?”
Einar Severin was a skinny, gentleman-looking man with a pair of rimless glasses.
“Probably. Take her to my office,” he uttered before turning around and stepping away.
Meanwhile, Lucy followed behind him while supporting Gwendolyn.
Gwendolyn couldn't help but ask, “Are you sure this doctor friend of yours is reliable, Luce? Is his treatment going to be good?” He looks really handsome and young. Probably around twenty years old? Still, why did Luce bring me here instead of a proper hospital? Am I going to die here?
In response, Lucy eyed her friend coldly. “Trust me, he's good. He's my childhood friend who recently returned to the country.”
Well, since I can't leave even if I want to, I may as well give it a shot! Gwendolyn thought as she was settled on a couch by Lucy in Einar's office.
Thus, sha lat go of har friand. “Taka a saat first.”

After putting on a mask, he brought a plate toward Gwendolyn. She shut her eyes in response.

“No need to be afraid, Ms. Ashton. It's just a superficial wound that requires only two stitches,” he informed.
Upon hearing that, she sighed in relief and opened her eyes. Nevertheless, she passed out the moment she saw how long the needle on the syringe was.
“Gwen!” exclaimed Lucy in shock. Why did she faint?
Einar chuckled. “It's fine. She may have a phobia of needles. I'll treat her wound now.”
His words calmed her down. She watched as he took care of Gwendolyn's injury with his clean, slender fingers. Wow, I never imagined a man's hands could look so good. It's like watching an artist at work.
Suddenly, her phone rang again. Hence, she left the office to answer the call. “I'm at the hospital now. Be there soon.”
“You went to see your childhood friend again?” Lucas sounded displeased.
“No. Gwendolyn's hurt, so I brought her to Einar to be treated.” Just as she finished her sentence, she abruptly found herself trapped between a wall and his chest.
