Chapter 621
“Time to change the bandage,” a doctor said as he rapped on the door.
Rachel hurriedly pushed Tyler away before anxiously smoothing out her hair.
The doctor looked like he saw nothing out of the ordinary as he approached Tyler.
“Time to change out the bandages. You went out at night, and the bandages are probably soaked through.”
Tyler lay on the bed obediently. “Thank you, doctor.”
The doctor made a move to pull Tyler’s pants down, but Tyler stopped him just in time.
“Wait, doctor. Please help me draw the curtains.”
The doctor held back the urge to laugh. “What’s the matter? Aren’t you two a couple? Why are you being
so shy?”
Rachel remained silent, wishing the doctor wouldn’t do as Tyler said and leave the curtains alone. That way, she would be able to see for herself if there was a scar at the top of Tyler’s thigh.
She had a chance to check it out previously, but couldn’t exactly spot the scar. It hadn’t been very clear.
Tyler cleared his throat. “My girl’s feeling a little deprived. You know my condition right now, don’t you?”

Rachel carefully pinched a corner of the curtain and pulled it away, leaving a gap she could look through.
The first thing she saw was Tyler’s firm, strong thigh and the sleek outline of his muscled leg. This wasn’t the first time she admired his side profile, but each time she had the chance to, she couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly with awe.

She had never seen such long legs that went on forever.
Rachel shook her head and forced herself to focus on the task at hand.
This wasn’t the time for her to admire his legs!
Tyler and the doctor didn’t seem to notice her. To get a better look, Rachel boldly drew the curtains a few
inches more.
The doctor was bent over, treating Tyler’s wound. It looked ghastly, with bruises and torn skin surrounding bloodied flesh.
Rachel’s heart leapt at the gory sight. She knew Tyler had gotten into a fight with Howard, but wasn’t
aware of the extent of his injuries.
Tyler never said a word about it since he got hospitalized.
Tears welled up in Rachel’s eyes. Just then, the doctor took a step to the right, causing Tyler’s thigh to
