Ice-Cold Ceo Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward ) Chapter 200

Chapter 200

Ben’s injury had been kept a secret from Old Mr. Landor.

After having dinner with him, Susan excused herself, saying she was tired and took Ben back to their room early.

“Lie down quickly,” Susan urged. “The doctor said you shouldn’t sit for too long right now.”

Susan helped Ben to the bed, supporting him gently.

“I will secretly call for a professional to come and take a look at your wound,” she whispered.

The Landor family always had a few professional medical staff on standby. Susan thought of calling one to assist.

But Ben was holding onto Susan’s hand, not letting go.

“What’s wrong?” Susan asked, puzzled by his reaction.

“I want you to treat my wound,” Ben said, his eyes full of hope, like a little puppy waiting for a treat.

Susan felt a little overwhelmed. She struggled, “But a professional will definitely do it better than me.”

“I’m afraid they might talk too much and let Grandpa replace out, which wouldn’t be good,” Ben continued with those puppy–dog eyes. “Susan, please, you do it.”

Susan panicked slightly, “I… I’m afraid I might hurt you.”

She had been watching intently these past few days as the nurse tended the wound over and over.

She had learned the procedure by sight, if not by hand.

Susan was afraid to cause Ben any pain.

“What’s there to be afraid of?” Ben was the picture of calm. “I’m not afraid of the pain.”

Regardless, he kept holding onto her hand.

Susan could only answer with trepidation, “Then I’ll… try?”

“Go ahead and try with confidence,” Ben said without hesitation.

Susan licked her lips nervously, then instructed, “First, you need to turn over.”

Ben did as she said.

As Susan lifted his shirt and saw the layers of gauze around his back, she felt a pang of heartache.

How much pain he must have been in at the time.

Yet, he had still been concerned enough to comfort her, telling her not to be afraid.

Susan’s hand trembled as it touched the bandage.

Feeling Susan’s unease, Ben reassured her, “Susan, it’s okay, it really isn’t that painful.”

Susan didn’t respond.

Taking a deep breath, Susan forced herself to calm down.

Then, with the utmost care, she gently untied the bandages layer by layer.

She was so earnest in her task.

Her gaze so focused.

It was as if what she was doing at that moment was the most important thing in the world.

As she unwrapped the bandages, Ben’s wound was revealed.

Susan couldn’t help but purse her lips.

This wasn’t the first time she had seen the wound, but each time, a deep hatred for Yana surged within her!

Susan took several deep breaths to compose herself once again.

She took the medication prescribed by the doctor and carefully applied it to Ben’s wound.

The doctor had mentioned that applying the medication might sting.

Yet, after so many applications, Ben’s expression had never once faltered.

Susan’s heart grew heavier with sympathy as she whispered, ‘Ben, there’s no one else around now. If it really hurts,

you can tell me.”

Ben raised an eyebrow.

His

tolerance for pain seemed naturally higher than most.

To him, the discomfort was bearable.

Five minutes later.

Ben put on a pitiful face, “Susan, it really hurts.”

Susan felt even more compassion, “It’s okay, it’s all done now. The pain will subside once the medicine is absorbed.”

“Maybe if you hold me, I might feel better,” Ben suggested.

“Okay, okay”

Immediately, Susan bent down and carefully embraced Ben’s head.

Ben turned slightly to look at her, “A kiss might make it even better?”

Susan was speechless.

She looked at Ben: “Are you really in pain?”

Ben furrowed his brows and made a pained expression, “Really.”

Susan hesitated.

Susan couldn’t shake the feeling that there was some kind of scheme at play.

But Ben’s pained expression seemed all too real.

He wouldn’t put himself through such an act just for a kiss, would he?

Surely not.

After a moment’s thought, Susan leaned down and gave him a kiss.

Ben savored it, then continued with a woeful tone, “The pain stopped the moment you kissed me. But now, it’s back

all of a sudden.”

With no other option, Susan kissed him again.

“Susan, I think I might need another kiss…” Ben started, ready to lay on the misery even thicker.

Susan glanced at his back, quickly stood up, and said, “The medicine’s absorbed, you need to lie down properly

now.”

Ben was suddenly full of grievances.

What kind of lightning–fast absorbing medicine was this?

If the hospital had a rating system, he’d definitely leave a bad review.

Susan took out the bandages, recalling the nurse’s technique, and carefully started to wrap Ben’s wound.

Although she was initially worried and afraid, it turned out her eyes and hands had learned well.

After about half an hour of careful work, Susan finally finished bandaging him up..

sit up,” Susan said as she pulled down his shirt, then added softly, “I’ll button up your pajamas for you.”

Ben obediently sat up.

Susan was diligently fastening his buttons when suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

‘Susan, Dad had the servants make some of your favorite snacks. You can’t get these outside. You must be craving them by now. I’ve brought them straight up for you.”

It was Penelope’s voice.

Startled, Susan quickly responded, “Penelope, no rush, you first…”

But in the next moment, the door swung open.

Penelope stood there, staring dumbfounded at the scene before her.

In the room, Ben’s shirt was open with the buttons undone.

Worried that Penelope would see the wound, the moment the door opened, Susan leaned into Ben’s chest and hugged him tightly.

Ben, in a swift move, turned and ended up pinning Susan beneath him.

The scene… was incredibly awkward.

Penelope placed the tray on the floor of the room mechanically, then gently closed the door behind her.

Once the door was shut, Susan gave Ben a firm push.

But he wouldn’t budge!

She couldn’t help but give Ben a glare.

Ben looked at her with an innocent face, “Susan, it was you who threw yourself at me. I didn’t move.”

Susan took a deep breath and then said with a smile, “Then, may I ask why the sudden improvisation?”

Ben had an ‘aha‘ moment, “Oh, you mean me lying on top of you. Well, it’s mainly because I have bandages around my waist, and I was worried Penelope might spot them. This way, it’s perfect, isn’t it?”

Susan clenched her teeth, “Can you get up now?”

“What if I just stay here for now?” Ben played coy.

Susan wanted to push him off, but she was worried about hurting his wound, so she didn’t dare to use too much

force.

Seeing Ben’s wolfish grin, Susan could only say, “Can’t you wait until your wound heals?”

“I feel… I can’t wait,” he replied.

It was an intimate moment.

Looking at the bandages on Ben, which was now slightly bloodied, she was so angry that she almost burst into

tears.

Ben, on the other hand, was not in the least bit worried. He comforted her, “Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt much.”

Susan bit her lip, “Oh? Then why was someone crying out in pain while the medicine was being applied?”

Ben fell silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up, as if deeply fascinated by the number of patterns

Susan was speechless.

Ben was like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

She needed to replace a way to make him behave in the coming days.

Narrowing her eyes, Susan whispered something into his ear

Ben’s pupils instantly constricted, and he looked at Susan with disbelief, “Really?”

Susan nodded, “As long as you behave these next few days, it’s true.”

After a moment of difficult deliberation, Ben solemnly nodded.

For the sake of future happiness, he figured he could endure a little longer!
