His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1193 Nursing Assistant

"Oh, well, I know a person who worked as a nursing assistant for over twenty years. She does a good

job at it for she is well experienced, but her rate is a little high. Then again, I think that you won't have a

problem getting her paid, will you?" Isla asked tentatively. She knew that Nick didn't have enough

money, and she deliberately said those words to see his reaction.

When Nick's reaction didn't change, Isla reached for her phone immediately so as to convince him that

she really did know someone and would call that nursing assistant right away. She swiped her screen

to unlock her phone and clicked her contacts where she searched for the name of that nursing

assistant.

As Isla was scrolling on her phone, Nick cleared his throat and spoke, slightly tensed and Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

embarrassed. "Um, Ms. Zhao, please, don't bother yourself."

Isla shited her eyes from her phone to Nick. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Are you sure? I guarantee

that she is experienced and a professional in her field. It usually is hard to make an appointment with

her considering the number of people seeking her help, but I know her personally. If I ask her for help,

she will immediately postpone off her next appointment and come here to look after you," she

continued.

She eyed Nick carefully and would like to see if the young man would confess that he didn't have

money to hire a nursing assistant. If he told them the truth, then both of them would be willing to help

out.

Nick bit his bottom lip, and after a moment, he agreed reluctantly, "Okay. I trust you. Please, call her."

To Isla's surprise, the patient went along with her suggestion, but she kept her surprise to herself,

maintaining the relaxed expression on her face.

"Oh, come on, Isla. Don't bother your friend anymore. You can't give her a call just because you know

her personally and let her postpone and call off her other appointments. It's not fair to the other clients

who had set beforehand, you know," Sheryl interjected, winking at Isla in secret. Even though she knew

little about Nick, she knew enough and observed enough to sense that he was a stubborn person.

She could sense that he would rather get himself into trouble than admit that he had no money. At the

thought of this, Sheryl started to feel pity on the obstinate young man. She even connected his

stubbornness to her own. Then again, at this case, she was fully aware that he was badly in need of

their help.

Again, regardless of whether or not they would cooperate and work together, Sheryl would still be

willing to lend a hand.

Isla sighed. At the thought of what Nick had been through, she had no heart to continue to feign to

push him into confession, so she looked at him in the eye and offered sincerely, "Well then, I don't have

much work to do recently. How about I take care of you until you get better? You can get me paid and

repay the medical expenses to us when you are discharged from the hospital. What do you say?"

Nick's eyes widened in surprise and embarrassment, but before he could reply, Sheryl added

immediately, "I don't think she can do this job alone. How about she and I can take turns in attending to

you? When she is busy, I will come by, and vice versa. Payment procedures will be after you are

recovered and released from here. Deal?"

She had been in low spirits these days that she thought about switching her bad mood by helping this

poor young man out.

Nick looked at them both with a weak smile. Without thinking about it, he shook his head and declined,

"I really appreciate your offers, and thank both of you for it, but I can't accept it. I already have bothered

you two enough, and I don't want to be any more of a bother. Even without your help, rest assured, I

can handle myself. I can just order some food when I am hungry, so there is no need to worry about

me."

He gave them an assuring smile. He didn't think that it was right to accept their good offer for he didn't

know how to repay their kindness. Besides, he had lost everything. It would be more difficult to return

their favors when he had nothing left to give.

'I am already fortunate enough to meet them in this cruel world. They already have saved my life, so I

can't let them take care of me anymore. It's too much, ' he thought.

"Oh, no, no, It's okay, really. We don't have much work to do. Besides, you just got out of surgery. You

are too weak to take care of yourself. Anyways, I'm sure that you will get better in a couple of days, and

when you are discharged from here, we can wash our hands of you," Isla persuaded earnestly. She

pouted as she hoped that she could convince him to accept their help.

However, Nick shook his head once more in reply. He didn't want to owe them a lot.

Before he could speak, he noticed that the dextrose in his IV bottle was running out. He needed a new

one. As he laid there in his bed, he reached out his hand in an attempt to hit the nurse button, but to no

avail, since it was far from his reach.

He tried to sit up, so that he could reach the button, but since he had just gotten out of surgery, he

couldn't do it still.

He realized that without anyone else around, he couldn't even get a new bottle.

Sheryl noticed Nick's attempt and was quick to understand the situation. She moved forward and

pressed the nurse button. She then turned to the patient and asked, "Are you sure you can take care of

yourself without our help?"

Nick looked away from her as he felt his cheeks warm, slightly embarrassed. He knew that considering

his situation, he had no other choice but to accept their kindness. With gratitude written all over his

face, he expressed, "You are right. I can't do this on my own. I really feel grateful and thankful for the

both of you. I promise that I will repay my debts after I am released."

"You have a heart disease, so don't think too much about it. Focus on your recovery, and we will help

you along the way," Sheryl replied in a bid to comfort him.

A knock came at the door and in was a young nurse with the new infusion bottle in her hand. She

excused herself in and replaced the empty bottle with the new one. After she finished, she looked at

the patient and then at the two stunning women sitting at his bedside. In a playful tone, she joked, "You

are so lucky to have two hot girls look after you."

Nick clearly was a shy and easily embarrassed guy, because as soon as he heard the nurse's joke, his

cheeks started to color up in crimson.

"Oh no, don't get us wrong. He is our little brother, and he does not have a girlfriend ever since. Look at

him. You embarrass him," Isla explained. She pretended to be an indulgent sister and treated Nick as

her brother.

She couldn't allow anyone else to make fun of her little brother.

"Hmm, is that so?" the nurse murmured. She turned her eyes to the patient again and commented on

how cute and handsome the young man was.

She couldn't take her eyes off Nick's face, and as she stared at him obsessively, her heartbeat started

to race.

"It's true. I was wondering if you have a boyfriend. If not, then what do you think of my brother?" Sheryl

teased. Looking at the two of them, she thought that they looked perfect for each other.

'Hmm. It would be a good thing if the two could end up being together.

Maybe, I can get them together, ' she wondered.

The nurse's cheeks turned redder than Nick's at Sheryl's question. Without answering, she excused

herself and hurriedly walked out of the ward.

As soon as the nurse left, Sheryl and Isla burst into fits of laughter at the bashful nurse.

Isla sighed as soon as the laughter had died down. "Ahh, it's so good to be young. I admire those

young and innocent people."

Sheryl scoffed and sniffed at Isla's exaggerated remark. "You sound like you are already an old

grandma."

"Well, I may not be a grandma, but I'm definitely not young anymore. I'm married and have a child. How

pathetic I get, especially when I meet a cute, young lad," Isla retorted. She didn't hide her emotions

anymore. She just loved the feeling being with those who were younger than her, especially with

charming lads. Staying and interacting with Nick made her feel the vigor and beauty of youth.
