When he reappeared, Tyrone was holding a bag with her medication.
The bag contained not only the prescribed medication but also the pills she had taken
earlier for her “stomach ache.”
Watching Tyrone inspect the medicines, Sabrina clutched her clothes nervously.
Tyrone scrutinized two unlabeled bottles and questioned, “These are the medicines you
received for your stomachache. Why are they unmarked?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSabrina explained nervously, “The pills originally came in boxes, but I transferred them to
bottles for convenience since I might have to travel for work next week.”
Her explanation seemed plausible, and Tyrone didn’t press further.
“Your ankle might not be healed by next week. If it’s not very important, have someone
else go for you.”
Sabrina agreed, sighing in relief.
Examining the remaining medicines, Tyrone picked up an ointment and queried, “They
only prescribed an ointment at the hospital yesterday?
No pills?
Sabrina shook her head. “I’ve been suffering frequent stomach aches recently. The doctor
thought the pills might worsen the issue, so he didn’t prescribe any.”
Again with the stomach ache.
Tyrone frowned, sensing something unusual but couldn’t place his finger on it.
“Let me change your dressing.” Tyrone reached for the gauze and ointment, and sat on
the edge of the bed, lifting the quilt.
“The housekeeper can do that for me.”

Sabrina bit her lip and remained silent.
Tyrone understood her hesitation. ©
His warm hand clasped her injured ankle, causing her to wince.
He carefully unwrapped the gauze, revealing her swollen ankle and the partially absorbed
ointment.
He wiped it off with an alcohol-infused tissue, revealing the inflamed joint.
After reapplying the ointment on Sabrina’s ankle, he bandaged it up neatly.
“That should do it.”
Tyrone tucked her in again.
