Chapter 1118 Shall I Carry You

Claire almost stopped breathing, feeling the stiffness in the air.
She slowly looked up and met Rowan's gaze.
He beamed at her. "All right. Go take the X-ray. I'll check if your leg bone is cracked. You could hardly walk."
His words eased the embarrassment in the air.
"Please go ahead," said Saskia, "I'll go downstairs to pay the bill."
"You don't need to." Rowan operated on his laptop and printed a piece of paper with a QR code. "Scan it. You can pay here."
"Let me pay it myself, Saskia." Claire pulled her phone from her handbag, grabbed the paper, and scanned the QR code.
Suddenly, Saskia heard her phone ringing. She swiped to answer and was quiet for a long time. Finally, she replied, "OK. I'm in a hospital with Claire. Will be back later."
"What's wrong?" Claire asked.
"My mom called." Saskia didn't leave her alone in the hospital. "It's alright. Let me take you to the X-ray." Then she helped Claire up. "Where is the X-ray room, Doc?"
Rowan pointed at a room inside. "This way."
"Will you do it personally?" Claire was shocked. "It's supposed to be done in the radiology department, right?"
Rowan asked, "Why? Afraid I'm not professional?"
Their gazes met again. Claire could feel his gentleness and kindness.
Rowan was a genius pharmacist, famous in the medical field. How could he be unprofessional?
Claire blushed in embarrassment, choking her words
"Come on in. At least I could afford more equipment." Rowan stood up and strode into the room behind the curtain.
Claire and Saskia saw the huge, new equipment inside as soon as the curtain was lifted.
"Let's go." Saskia helped her enter the room.
Rowan adjusted the machine. His doctor's white gown was carefully buttoned, and so were his cuffs, making him look fastidious. "Lie on it. You don't need to take off your shoes."
Claire instinctively felt scared when confronting such a massive machine in a big room.
After adjusting the equipment, Rowan looked back at her. "Why are you still standing there? Shall I carry you?"
Claire was shocked, looking into his eyes again.
From her face, Rowan saw horror, realizing she hadn't been injured before, so it should be her first time taking the X-ray.
Saskia helped her sit up and said, "It won't hurt, Claire. Just like taking a photo."
The piercing pain in the leg made Claire move carefully. Besides, she wore a short skirt, feeling awkward lying down.
Rowan picked up a blanket and covered her thigh completely without touching her.
"Thanks." Claire was surprised, feeling moved by his action, staring at him gratefully.
Rowan didn't look back while adjusting the camera's position. He would try his best not to move her injured leg.
Saskia didn't pay much attention to Rowan's appearance, still bothered by the disappointment in love.
Parker was her first boyfriend since high school. She thought they would get married and had never expected to end up in this way. Saskia didn't think she would believe in love again.
The thought brought tears to her eyes, and she wiped them secretly.
Claire watched her under the equipment, feeling sorry.
She decided to tear Parker up after recovering and not let go of him easily.
Suddenly, Saskia's phone rang again.
"Is your mother urging you?" Claire said, "Go home, Saskia. I'll be fine. If I need to stay in the hospital, I'll check in. I'll be cooperative."
"But..."
"No buts. You are not a doctor. I don't think you can help much when staying here." Claire was considerate. "Your mother has called you twice. It must be something urgent."
