Secretly Married to a Wealthy Husband

During this period of time, there had been no physical intimacy between the two, and even their emotional connection had become somewhat distant because of the recent events.

Although this man had been very considerate and attentive to her these days, Emily couldn’t help but feel a sharp pain in her heart whenever she thought of his threats and overbearing attitude.

Turning her head away, Emily gazed thoughtfully at the ceiling without looking at the man beside her, her expression becoming dull and lifeless.

At this moment, the room door was knocked on.

In the past, even the slightest noise would cause Baron Stuart to frown and wake up, but nowadays…

The door was knocked on three times, accompanied by Doctor Gavin’s gentle and clear voice, but the man in the bed did not open his eyes. Instead, he continued to sleep deeply, as if he was extremely exhausted.

Since both of them were in the room, Doctor Gavin couldn’t just barge in, so he had to wait for someone to respond from inside before entering.

With no other choice, Emily got up from the bed, walked over, and opened the door to see Doctor Gavin holding a medical box in his hand.

She looked at him with some surprise. She had just finished her infusion not too long ago, so would she need another treatment already?

Seeing her, Doctor Gavin smiled faintly and then walked into the room.

“Young Master, it’s time to change your medicine.”

After saying this to Emily, Doctor Gavin walked straight into the room and approached the bedside.

Emily stood there, still somewhat confused for a moment.

Change medicine? What medicine?

Her line of sight followed Doctor Gavin’s footsteps and landed on the man lying in bed.

He needed to change his medicine? What happened to him?

Emily approached them, still not understanding what Doctor Gavin meant by changing medicine.

Looking at Baron Stuart, who was deeply asleep in bed, Doctor Gavin gently called out, “Young Master?”

He seemed so exhausted that Doctor Gavin was reluctant to wake him up if it wasn’t absolutely necessary.

However, the wound on his back was so deep that it had to be changed three times a day. Because he had been insisting on sticking to his schedule these days, he had only been able to change the dressing once a day. As a result, the wound on his back had started to become infected. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, or the consequences would have been severe!

If the wound were to get infected, he couldn’t be like the past few days, changing the dressing only when he had time and not doing so when he didn’t. Otherwise, his arm might become useless!

“Young Master?” Seeing that there was no response, Doctor Gavin couldn’t help but call out again.

Looking at the sleeping man, Emily was in a daze.

Normally, he would never sleep so deeply. What had happened recently?

Of course, she didn’t know that Baron Stuart had injured his back and was released from the hospital to work only after one week of recovery.

He had been busy attending social engagements and making time to go to the hospital to keep her company and ensure she ate on time.

It could be said that during these days, he had been under tremendous pressure, both physically and mentally, yet Emily didn’t know about any of this.

In response to Doctor Gavin’s gentle calls, Baron Stuart finally furrowed his brows ever so slightly and slowly opened his eyes.

Sitting up, he glanced around, and for the first time, Baron Stuart felt the urge to sleep for a few more minutes.

During this period, he had been getting far too little sleep.

“Are we there yet?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, he looked outside the window, and the private jet was still flying in the air.

Doctor Gavin respectfully bowed and said, “No, it’s time for you to change your medicine.”

Hearing this, Baron Stuart lifted his deep pupils and proceeded to sit up. As he was about to remove the shirt on his body, he finally noticed Emily standing nearby.
