Ellar, however, was pleasantly surprised as he did not expect her to show up. "What are you doing

here?"

An angry Patricia glanced over at Ellar and chided, "Did you even bother to take care of yourself?"

"I-" Ellar lowered his head like a kid who had done something wrong. "I forgot about it."

"Forgot about what?" Patricia raised her voice. "Didn't your assistant remind you?"

The notion that he had forgotten about his checkup was ridiculous at best. Even if he had indeed

allowed the checkup to slip off his mind, his assistant would not have.

"Come on. Trust me, I'm fine. I'll recover after two days." Ellar replied, acting as though the issue was a

trivial one.

However, his head was still bowed as he did not dare to look Patricia in the eye.

"You have wounds on you, and you know that you have a fever. Have you ever considered the

possibility that the condition might not be as simple as you think it is, you imbecile?" Patricia yelled,

unable to contain herself.

What if the fever is caused by an infection on the wound?' she thought.

"I'm really fine. See." Ellar pulled his sleeves up to show Patricia his wounds. "My wounds are fine. I

most probably

caught a cold and got feverish as a result. I'll be fine in two days."

However, Patricia had a different observation. She had noticed that the skin around Ellar's wounds

were red and swollen. The very sight of it made her frown even deeper.

Then, Patricia gritted her teeth, and without giving him the option to back out, she stated, "I'm bringing

you to the hospital. We're going at this very second."

Ellar gulped. He already had half the mind to decline Patricia, but he swallowed his words before he

could even utter them.

Ultimately, he conceded to her demand. "Okay."

Patricia then brought Ellar to the hospital.

As expected, while the doctor was examining Ellar, he frowned. "You had an appointment for a checkup Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

days ago. Why didn't you show up?"

"I've forgotten about it." Ellar glanced over at Patricia as he replied in a low voice.

"But you already had a booking. How could you forget?" the doctor asked in confusion.

After a momentary pause, Ellar explained. "I drive myself around. I was about to come over forthat

appointment on that day, but I had to take care of something on the way here. By the time I had sorted

it out, I had forgotten about it."

In response, the doctor reprimanded, "In that case, I must advise you to not be so careless next time.

Look at your

wound. It's already infected. This means that you have not been recovering well. You better get some

rest. Also..."

The doctor went on to give Ellar a bunch of advice.

Meanwhile, Patricia looked at Ellar and began to frown.' What was so important that he got distracted

while he was on the way here? And he even forgot about it in the end too!'

Seeing that the doctors were checking on Ellar while the nurses were cleaning his wound, she quietly

exited the room.

"What happened? Tell me," Patricia asked the security detail who was assigned to protect Ellar in

secret.

"He really did leave for the hospital that day. But on the way there, he bumped into you and decided to

tail you. Perhaps you were busy with something important, so you did not notice him. After about ten

minutes, you went to Riddle Corporation, while he returned to BayCorp," the man explained, stunning

Patricia.

"So, he just followed me around with no clear aim or reason? " she asked.

Indeed, he had done so, and had totally forgotten about his own appointment when he saw Patricia

returning to the Riddle Corporation.

"Yeah. After he forgot about that appointment, his assistant decided to book him another session. But

then, he said there was no need for it anymore as he was feeling a lot better. He even said he would

recover once the scab in his wounds fall off after two days. But because he ended up contracting a

fever yesterday, his assistant had no choice but to call you," the security detail concluded.

Having a clear idea of the situation now, Patricia sighed. 'Is he that stupid?'

If he missed one appointment, he could always make another one after all. As such, it was ludicrous

that he had opted not to do so entirely. In addition, there was no rhyme or reason in him following her

around. It was clear at this point that he did not have his priorities in order.

After a while, the door to the ward opened and Ellar walked out with freshly treated wounds.

Patricia could not help but roll her eyes at him when she saw how pale he was. "Now, I assume you

should know how painful it is?"

She knew that an infection of such sort was even more painful to treat than the wound itself when it

was freshly inflicted. He had really dug himself the hole he was in this time.

"I'm fine." Ellar replied through gritted teeth, still attempting to act tough.

He could not allow Patricia to look down on him. For a man like him, a wound like this was nothing, or

so he thought.

"God help me." Patricia rolled her eyes again.

Needless to say, she was annoyed, for he had the gall to put on a front even after he had gotten

himself into this mess.

"You must rest when you are back home. And please, don’t forget about your next check-up," the nurse

reminded Ellar.
