CEO Of My Heart Chapter 87

Somewhere in the haze between reality and no, Nolan's face appeared as he wiped the tears off of her face . Ellie shook her head when he started to open the drawer where she knew relief was . She told him again and again that he didn't need to be there . Wu's wrinkled forehead above her appeared next as the cool pressure of the stethoscope came next to her forehead . Wu shook her head as Ellie felt her heart beating like she had run a marathon .

"If this was Henry or Nolan, I would have expected this . Ellie you should know better than to force yourself to this point . You're supposed to be the rational one . " Wu spat as she reached into the drawer .

Ellie panicked . "I'm already in full withdrawal . If I stop now, Dr Wu, I promise I do understand your concerns, but I will just have to go through it all over again . I don't want to go back to a hospital and risk getting my body messed with again . I already had surgery . I can barely move . I don't want to do this twice . "

Something flickered in Wu's eyes as her hands danced from the rim of the drawer to her stethoscope which was gripped tightly in one hand . Ellie braced when she opened her mouth to speak, but then Wu pursed her lips . "I won't force you . "

"Thank you . " Ellie said soothed as she sank deeper into her pillow .

Michael took up watch after Wu departed, a permanent crease etched into his brow as the time ticked on . Michael ordered the sheets to be changed to make Ellie more comfortable . Then he switched the tactic as Ellie complained that moving was painful and it made her feel cold . The footman then brought out blankets, but no matter what Ellie's body was still racked with s.h.i.+vers .

Ellie put her hand in her mouth and bit down until she tasted blood . She opened her eyes and looked towards Michael . It would be so easy to end this suffering now . No one would blame her . It wouldn't even need to be a lot -- just a drop would make it all go away .

Someone pulled her hand away from her mouth and began to wrap it in gauze . The strong steady hands were unmistakable as Michael handed him a package of wet wipes that he used to mop her face . Henry took a little antiseptic on to the wound before closing it . Ellie winced as it stung . She tried to wrench her hand out of his grip . But, he held her fast and steady . He shouldn't have come, Ellie wanted to say .

His velvet voice reminded her, "You're sick . You need taking care of . It's ok if it's me because I expect nothing in return . I never have . You can relax . "

Ellie tried to blink away the blur from her eyes . She was too wear to rub it away . It was so strange to think that she had married a wonderful strong in mind and body partner . It was impossible . Husbands like this were only in the movies and kdramas .
