Chapter 852 In the Ward

Susan saw a stark-naked man before the mirror the instant she got into the bathroom. Manuel also found Susan right now. Then Susan immediately turned back, and her mind was crowded with Manuel's naked body: firm muscles, muscular waist, sexy booty... She even felt like stroking this man's body. She was extremely embarrassed and her heart was beating very fast as Manuel was approaching her. She felt too nervous and wondered what Manuel would do to her. Then she suddenly cried, "I just want to take a bath. I have no intention of peeking." As soon as she blurted out her words, she realized what she had just said was only a poor lie and she seemingly couldn't explain anymore.

"Are you sure?" asked Manuel in a deep voice from behind.

"Oh. I got so dirty in the car crash. I need to have a shower."

"Carry on."

"You go out," Susan said, with her eyes closed tightly.

"How can I get out as you are blocking my way?" Manuel asked a question in reply.

Susan moved a few steps, and she kept her eyes closed, in case she would get out of control as she saw Manuel's body. Then she suddenly felt his strong chest, and she opened her eyes immediately, just replaceing her hands touching Manuel's pectoral muscles. She hastened to whip her hands back, and explained in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I'm not trying to take advantage of you." Manuel looked down at her, who couldn't help shifting her eyes to the lower part of Manuel. He had wrapped a bath towel around his waist, or Susan would have sunk through the floor. "When did you get so timid?" Manuel asked Susan.

Susan was speechless by this sudden question, looking at him in a daze. Manuel looked incredibly sexy with his wet hair.

"You let me down," Manuel said and went out directly.

Susan stared at the doorway, seeming lost in private thoughts. "What did he mean? Did he criticize me? Did he want me to do something to him?" wondered Susan. She shook her head and hastily went to turn on the shower, intending to clear away the cobwebs from her brain. She almost bounced up as soon as the water gushed out.

"Shit! It's so cold! Why is it cold water?" Susan turned off the water and began to adjust the temperature as she wondered, "Why did Manuel take a cold shower?" She breathed in deeply, and murmured, "I've thrown caution to the wind for you, Hannah." After a hot bath, Susan wore a hospital gown and got out of the bathroom.

Manuel was also in a hospital gown, checking his phone on the sofa. He had cooled down. Susan walked slowly to the bed and lay down on it, staring at Manuel steadily even without a wink. "Why don't you go to bed?" Manuel asked her, and his eyes were still kept on his phone.

"You said you would sleep together with me," Susan said in a very careful voice.

Manuel's brow furrowed. "I'm not sleepy." He said.

"Me, too," Susan said immediately, "Just play on your phone, don't mind me."

Manuel suddenly put his phone down, got up off the sofa and walked directly to Susan. Susan began to feel nervous, fantasizing that Manuel would throw his arms around her and kiss her. She thought she wouldn't refuse him then.

Manuel walked to the side of the bed and turned down the light to the lowest. Susan thought it would be better if Manuel turned off the light. Then he got on the sick bed. She was too nervous and moved herself to the side to make space for Manuel to lie down. But the bed was not big, and Susan almost fell off it; then she hastened to catch hold of Manuel to steady herself. Manuel shuddered at that moment and he swallowed a bit.

Suddenly she felt awkward and she turned her head, just seeing her hand grasping Manuel's crotch firmly. With a start, her hand slipped out of Manuel and she fell with a thump on the ground heavily.

"Ouch!"

Manuel had a physical reaction at this moment. He thought Susan was just torturing himself intentionally. Then he breathed in deeply and bent over to pick Susan up off the ground. Susan marvelled at his nice arms. Manuel put her on the bed, "The bed is enough for us, you don't need to move."

"Well."

"Sleep, now," Manuel said in a tone of command.

"OK."

Then Manuel slept on his side, with his back to her. Susan watched at his broad back and thought she could spend a whole night looking at his back. Occasionally she moved a bit for a more comfortable posture as she looked at Manuel.

"Susan, don't move anymore, OK?" Manuel ground his teeth in anger.

Susan bit her lips and wondered why Manuel was always so high-handed before her. Then she turned to sleep on her side with her back to him, not knowing how strenuous it was for Manuel to suppress his erotism.

After a long time, they finally had fallen asleep.
