Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 162 Melody, It’s So Nice to Have You...
Melody Parker looked at Adrian Davies with a pale face, "Adrian Davies, I’m scared, maybe..."
Adrian gently interrupted Melody Parker, speaking softly, "Melody, it’s fine, just do as I instructed."
Melody Parker: "Adrian, I..."
Adrian’s dark eyes fixated on Melody Parker, giving her reassurance, "Melody, trust me, just follow my instructions and it will be alright."
Melody Parker looked at Adrian and finally took out the alcohol from the medical kit.
She picked up the cotton, using the alcohol to clean the wound.
Then, she closed her eyes, gritting her teeth, took out a sharp scalpel, and mercilessly cut through Adrian’s flesh.
No worries, just pretend it’s pork, and I’m just chopping vegetables! Hmph!
As the blade pierced the skin, Adrian didn’t utter a word of pain, instead, he calmly watched Melody Parker, soothing her, "Melody, don’t be afraid, you’re doing great."
Melody Parker was, after all, inexperienced and had no experience in this area.
The cut on the flesh was inevitably a bit larger and deeper.
More blood flowed from Adrian’s arm.
Melody Parker panicked, "Adrian, what should I do?"
Adrian, dripping with sweat, bore a reassuring smile on his pale face, "Melody, it’s alright, this is normal bleeding, keep going, just remove the bullet."
Melody Parker trusted him.
She quickly found the tweezers in the medical kit and started searching through Adrian’s wound.
The sweat on Adrian’s face increased, and his complexion grew paler.
Yet, he never cried out in pain, continually watching Melody Parker deeply, "Melody, you’re amazing, just like that."
Melody Parker was drenched in sweat, focusing intently on locating that damn bullet.
Finally, through her efforts, the bullet lodged in Adrian’s arm was found.
The blood-stained bullet was discarded into the tray.
Melody Parker turned to look at Adrian, whose face was pale, "Adrian, what do I do next?"
Adrian tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Melody, sterilize once more, then apply the hemostatic medicine and bandage. Once all that’s done, give me some anti-inflammatory antibiotics."
Melody Parker nodded, "Okay."
The most difficult part of cutting the flesh and finding the bullet was done, making the rest easier.
Soon, Melody Parker, following Adrian’s instructions, disinfected his wound and applied the hemostatic medicine.
She bandaged Adrian with white gauze, tying a knot on his injured arm.
Then, she quickly found the medicine Adrian needed to take in the medical kit, hurriedly poured water, and fed Adrian the pills.
Once everything was done, Melody Parker collapsed weakly onto the sofa.
At that moment, her clothes, soaked with sweat from the intense tension, clung to her body.
Adrian turned his head to look at the exhausted girl slumped there, his comforting tone firm, "Melody, you did great, I’ll be fine."
Melody Parker: "..."
She didn’t want to speak.
She didn’t want to deal with this guy who cornered her into doing this.
If it wasn’t for his overbearing, dictatorial ways, would she have been forced into such a tough spot?
There were clearly better options!
Melody Parker remained silent, and Adrian continued, "Melody, truly, there’s no need to be scared; I’ve faced situations like this since childhood. It’s nothing. This small injury won’t take my life."
The man’s voice was quiet, even a bit weak.
While saying this, his attitude was surprisingly casual, as if he didn’t care at all.
Yet somehow, it made Melody Parker’s heart swell with a kind of tenderness once more.
This time, it wasn’t out of pity for his serious injury, but out of heartache for the circumstances he must have grown up in, to speak so lightly of such matters...
However, Adrian hadn’t finished speaking.
He looked at Melody Parker with his obsidian-like eyes, his slightly weakened voice continuing to recount their first meeting.
"Melody, you know? Five years ago, the night you were drugged, I was also on the run from a similar pursuit. Hmm...That pursuit was far more dangerous than this one. I hid in the room where you were staying to evade them... Our remarkable meeting, it was a miraculous rescue for both."
Adrian reached out, wrapping Melody Parker’s small hand in his palm.
"Melody, did you know? If I hadn’t entered your room that night, I might have already been killed. And you, might have been ruined by another old man."
Adrian lifted Melody Parker’s delicate hand, planting a kiss on the back.
"Melody, did you know? Our encounter was the best arrangement by fate. You saved my life, and I relieved you of your medication’s effects. We not only rescued each other but also brought a pair of lovely, intelligent babies into existence. Although we missed each other for four years due to some unfortunate events, fate ultimately delivered you to me..."
Listening to Adrian’s words, Melody Parker silently turned her head to gaze out the window.
Indeed, she shouldn’t blame him.
If she hadn’t met him then, she wouldn’t have escaped the disaster.
Even if she had evaded the old man arranged by Phoebe, what would have happened after she fled?
Drugged, who would she have ended up with?
If not for him, would she have her two babies?
If not for him, she might not even know who violated her, right?
Thinking of her babies, she suddenly remembered the other child, wanting to ask Adrian about the other child, but the words got caught in her throat.
The man closed his eyes, his frail appearance causing heartache; he protected her in moments of crisis.
He shielded her from fear, from harm...
Doing everything to safeguard her.
The living room quieted down.
Melody Parker turned to look at the man’s closed lashes.
Seemingly sensing Melody Parker’s gaze, or perhaps timing it just right.
Ultimately, the man opened his sleepy eyes.
He looked at Melody Parker and uttered gently, "Melody."
Melody Parker’s dark eyes looked at Adrian, softly asking, "Adrian, are you tired?"
Adrian nodded, "Hmm, I’ll just nap a little, it will be fine."
"Okay, but you can’t sleep here, go to the room." Saying that, Melody Parker pulled out her small hand held by Adrian.
She stepped to Adrian’s other side, extending her arm to support Adrian’s uninjured arm.
"Alright, I’ll listen to Melody." Adrian obediently got up, allowing Melody Parker to help him to the bedroom.
Under Adrian’s guidance, Melody Parker followed him to the master bedroom, settling him onto the comfortable large bed, covering him with a silk quilt.
Then, just as Melody Parker was about to turn around, Adrian’s large hand reached out from under the covers, tightly grasping Melody Parker’s small hand.
"Melody, stay with me."
