Chapter 324


    I called out to Jenny. I wonder where she is. She had been cking off ever since Ss’ arrival. I had to


    ask Ss for help whenever I couldn’t find her.


    I felt a cut on the back of his hand as he was washing my hands. “Why is there a cut on the back of


    your hand? Does it hurt?” I asked, feeling concerned.


    Ss kept quiet, looked at me, paused for a moment, and then continued to wash my hands. After I


    washed up, he carried me to my bedroom and put me down on the bed. It felt so foreign yet so familiar


    to be in his arms.


    His embrace felt a lot like Christopher’s. I would have mistaken him for Christopher if not for theck of


    his unique cool scent.


    Ss stopped me as I reached out and tried to rub my itchy eyes. He wheeled me downstairs and fed


    me breakfast. I called out for Jenny a couple more times during breakfast, but she was still nowhere to


    be found. Did she have a new boyfriend or something? Why is she always not around when I need


    her? I twitched my lips in annoyance.


    “Ss, my eyes are getting really itchy. Please take me to the hospital now.” It was getting so itchy that I


    badly wanted to scratch my eyes.


    Ss immediately wheeled me out and took me to the only hospital in town. I heard Lucas calling out to


    me from afar. I smiled and waved him over. “Lucas, I dreamt about Christopher yesterday night. I’m so


    happy.”


    Somehow, Lucas kept quiet for a brief moment and it felt as though he was staring at me.


    Then, he replied in a somewhat awkward tone, “Whatever makes you happy.”


    “Yes, my eyes felt really ufortable today. The doctor said I’m supposed to remove my dressing


    tomorrow, but I couldn’t stand it anymore. I wonder if my eyes are healing properly.”


    “Oh? Is it not today? Today is the 19th. You must have got it wrong,” Lucas eximed.


    I rolled my eyes at him. “I’m pretty sure it was 17th yesterday when I checked, but you’re telling me it’s


    19th now? Stop pulling my leg.”


    There was an awkward silence for a good few seconds, then I heard Lucas saying something.

    “Pardon?” I couldn’t hear him because his voice was too soft.


    “N-Nothing!”


    “Let’s have lunch together. Ss is a really good cook. The more the merrier, right?”


    “We’ll see. Hurry on. I’ll leave you two to it then.” Lucas dashed off in no time.


    I noticed that Lucas and Jenny had been acting very weirdly around metely. It was as if I’m the only


    one who was sane.


    The old TCM practitioner smiled in relief when I told him about my itchy eyes. “The medicine is working


    its magic. I will remove your eye dressing in a little while. Try to open your eyes then. But remember,


    don’t open your eyes immediately, try to do it slowly to let your eyes adapt. You’re on the road to


    recovery if you can see some dim light.”


    “Ok.” I nodded calmly. I didn’t really care much about my eyes since I’m already terminally ill. What


    difference does it make to me when I’m about to die?


    I decided to leave my sight to fate. However, life would be much more difficult for me if I were to lose


    my eyesight. Jenny’sziness had been getting to me. It felt really ufortable to have a man take


    care of my needs. He was even responsible for washing all of my clothes now.


    I wonder if he felt as embarrassed as I was when he washed my lingerie.
