Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 161: Melody, help me remove the bullet...
Adrian was in a good mood, "Melody, you don’t have to say anymore, I know you’re concerned about me."
Melody Parker: "..."
Who’s concerned about him?
Turns out he’s not only domineering and dictatorial but also so narcissistic!
Though at the moment, these things aren’t important.
Let him be narcissistic if he wants.
Melody Parker looked at Adrian’s injured arm and, for some inexplicable reason, felt a twinge of heartache.
She glared at Adrian, speaking with a firm tone, "Think whatever you want, but you must go to the hospital immediately!"
Adrian continued driving without changing direction, "Melody, the hospital is too far from here. By the time we get there, this arm will probably be useless. Besides, at this moment, there certainly are people at the hospital waiting for us to walk right into a trap."
Upon hearing this, Melody Parker was startled.
Her eyes, when looking at Adrian, suddenly filled with panic, "Then what do we do?"
Seeing the panic in Melody’s eyes, Adrian was pleased.
Clearly, she’s concerned about me; is admitting it that hard?
Fine, if she won’t admit it now, she will later. He’ll have plenty of opportunities to make this stubborn woman admit it, so no rush for now.
Moreover, he doesn’t want his woman to worry too much.
Adrian looked at Melody lovingly and said softly, "Melody, it’s okay. We won’t go to the hospital; we’ll go somewhere that can treat my injury more quickly."
...
Indeed, they didn’t go to the hospital; Adrian drove directly to a secluded villa in Fland.
The car stopped, Adrian got out.
Melody followed, looking at Adrian, she asked: "Adrian, where is this?"
Not waiting for Adrian to answer, something occurred to her, and she continued: "Adrian, is the owner here a doctor?"
Adrian shook his head, "No. The owner is me."
Melody: "..."
It’s him?
He’s the owner here?
Then there must be a very good family doctor.
After all, someone of his wealth, frequently attacked by enemies, it’s normal to have a few family doctors.
Seeing Melody quiet down, Adrian didn’t say more but held her hand and led her inside.
A middle-aged man greeted them inside the villa and was stunned upon seeing Melody with Adrian.
Then, after a few seconds, having reacted, he respectfully spoke: "Young Master, you’re back."
Adrian looked at the middle-aged man, "Uncle Steven, bring the first-aid kit!"
Upon hearing Adrian’s order, the middle-aged man noticed Adrian’s arm injury, "Young Master, you’re injured?"
Adrian dismissed it coldly, "It’s nothing, just took a bullet, take it out and it’ll be fine."
Upon hearing it was a gunshot, Uncle Steven immediately became nervous, "Alright, I’ll get it right away."
With that, Uncle Steven turned and ran off to fetch the first-aid kit.
Adrian led Melody to sit on the sofa in the living room.
Soon, Uncle Steven returned with the first-aid kit.
Setting the first-aid kit on the coffee table in the living room, Uncle Steven nervously opened it and took out the tools he needed. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Then something came to his mind, he put the tools back.
Next, he found a pair of sharp scissors and walked back to Adrian, "Young Master, I need to cut the sleeve off your injured arm first."
Saying that, Uncle Steven was about to start.
Adrian raised his hand to stop him, "Uncle Steven, you go out, let Melody do it."
Uncle Steven looked at Melody and handed her the scissors, "Miss, please help our Young Master."
Melody turned her head, suspiciously looking at Adrian.
Is this man crazy?
He actually let this middle-aged uncle out and wants her to treat his arm injury?
Is he sure he didn’t say it wrong?!
Seeing Melody not taking the scissors, Uncle Steven directly placed them on the table and headed out.
Melody panicked instantly, "Uncle, don’t go, whether you’re a family doctor or not, you must know some medical skills? You’re leaving a wounded patient to me..."
However, before she finished talking, Uncle Steven had disappeared from her sight.
Melody turned her head, helplessly looking at Adrian, "Adrian, what are you doing? I don’t know how to take a bullet out!"
Adrian looked at Melody with a gentle face, "Melody, you’ll figure it out if you just try. Everything has a first time, you need to get used to it. Come on, go ahead and take it out, I’m not afraid of pain."
Melody Parker: "..."
Figure it out if I just try? Everything has a first time?
This is taking out a bullet, not picking a thorn!
This is not a first time she wants, alright!
Besides, why should she have to get used to doing this sort of thing?!
Seeing Melody not moving, Adrian urged, "Melody, quickly, otherwise the longer it takes, the more likely my arm will become useless."
Melody immediately countered without thinking, "It’ll become useless the longer it takes, aren’t you afraid I’ll mess up your arm while taking the bullet?"
Adrian’s eyes were gentle, his voice firm, "Not afraid! Melody wouldn’t do that."
Melody Parker: "..."
You’re not scared, but I am, alright?
And there’s someone available here, I really can’t do it.
Melody looked at Adrian and offered the best suggestion, "Adrian, I really can’t do it. I think I should call that Uncle Steven back."
Saying this, Melody stood up to go outside.
"Melody, even if you call him back, it won’t help. I only want you. Besides, without my command, Uncle Steven won’t come." Adrian’s irritating voice sounded behind her.
Melody stopped, turned around, and glared at him fiercely.
She had a thousand urges to curse out this man in front of her.
But ultimately, she said nothing, reluctantly picking up the scissors from the table.
Adrian was very satisfied, "Melody, first cut open the fabric around the wound."
Melody’s trembling hand cut open the blood-soaked suit sleeve.
Adrian complimented, "Very good! Next, cut it off, take it off."
Melody obediently cut off the suit sleeve, then helped Adrian take off the suit jacket he was wearing outside.
Once the suit jacket was removed, the white shirt was exposed.
Staring at the glaring red on the white shirt, Melody’s hands shook even more.
Adrian soothed gently, "Good girl, don’t be afraid. Just like before, cut open the fabric at the wound, then you can clean the wound for me."
Melody hesitated a bit, finally using her hand that shook uncontrollably to cut open the blood-stained shirt.
Then, she truly saw the bloody hole.
At the same time, Adrian looked at the medicine box on the table, "Melody, use alcohol to disinfect, then use the scalpel inside to open the wound, find the bullet, and use tongs to take it out."
Adrian spoke lightly, but looking at the bloody hole, Melody’s mind went blank as if it had been detonated.
