Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 165: She Really Is His Medicine...

Although I didn’t know his name before, wasn’t he the bodyguard by Adrian’s side?

Why has he come alone now? Shouldn’t he have brought a doctor along?

Recalling what Uncle Steven said before, he mentioned that he had already informed Locke.

And Uncle Steven was very clear at the time, he said, once Locke arrives, everything will be fine.

Melody Parker’s slightly furrowed brows relaxed.

Could it be that this Locke isn’t just a bodyguard, but also a bodyguard skilled in medicine?

Melody Parker looked at Locke and asked, "Are you a doctor? Or is your medical skill really good?"

Locke shook his head, "Miss Parker, I’m not a doctor, nor do I practice medicine."

Hearing this, Melody Parker frowned deeply.

She, with such a gentle demeanor, was almost driven mad by these people!

Adrian’s subordinates, are they all just as unreliable as Adrian?

Adrian forced her, who knew nothing about medicine, to remove bullets and dress wounds for him.

Uncle Steven went along with Adrian’s nonsense.

And now another clueless arrival without medical skills, just to make the situation worse?!

Just when Melody Parker couldn’t help but start to scold, Locke handed the medicine bottle he was holding to Melody Parker, "Miss Parker, this is the medicine for the President. Every time the President is injured and feverish, he will end up like this. Once he takes the medicine, he’ll be fine."

Melody Parker: "..."

If there’s medicine, why not take it out earlier instead of standing there talking nonsense!

But is this medicine really effective?

Melody Parker took the medicine bottle from Locke, glanced at the small bottle in her hand, then looked at Locke and voiced her doubts, "Are you sure this medicine works? There’s no need to call a doctor?"

Locke nodded, earnestly assuring, "Miss Parker, rest assured, I would never harm the President. As long as the President takes this medicine, there’s absolutely no need to call a doctor."

Only then did Melody Parker feel relieved and unscrewed the bottle cap in her hand.

Seeing Melody Parker’s actions, Locke timely advised, "Miss Parker, just one pill is enough."

At this moment, Uncle Steven had already poured a glass of water and brought it over, "Miss, here’s the water."

Melody Parker poured a pill from the bottle, looked at Adrian, and gently said, "Adrian, open your mouth for the medicine."

Adrian obediently opened his mouth.

Melody Parker placed the pill into Adrian’s mouth, then took the glass from Uncle Steven and held it to Adrian’s mouth, "Adrian, now take a sip of water and swallow the pill."

Adrian opened his mouth again.

Melody Parker fed Adrian a sip of water, watching as he swallowed the pill with the water, then softly encouraged, "Adrian, be good, close your eyes and take a nap. When you wake up, you won’t feel uncomfortable anymore."

This time, Adrian did not follow Melody Parker’s words and close his eyes.

His big hand held tightly onto Melody Parker’s small hand and, in his confused state, looked at Melody Parker, "Melody, I can’t sleep. Otherwise, you’ll leave."

The words Adrian spoke were unbelievably tender.

But Melody Parker understood.

She reached out her other hand and tucked the quilt for Adrian.

With a gentle smile on her face, her voice was unbelievably soft.

"Don’t worry, I won’t leave this time, I’ll stay here with you, now sleep."

...

Seeing the interaction between Adrian and Melody Parker, Locke froze.

He had never seen the President like this.

The President, whenever he had an episode before, would only show manic traits, turning into an utter madman, destroying everything in sight, violently killing...

But now, the President seemed like a child longing for more attention.

And Miss Parker, she indeed seemed to be playing the role of a mother.

Compared to Locke, who had never seen the interaction between Melody Parker and the unwell Adrian, Uncle Steven was clearly much more composed.

He reached out and nudged the stiff, petrified Locke, gave him a look, and the two of them retreated from the master bedroom together.

With Uncle Steven and Locke leaving, only Melody Parker and Adrian remained in the master bedroom.

Melody Parker allowed Adrian to stubbornly hold her small hand, tenderly coaxing this child-like sick man to sleep, over and over again.

Before long, after taking the medicine, Adrian finally succumbed to sleep, soothed by Melody Parker’s comfort.

Melody Parker didn’t dare leave, fearing that Adrian would look for her when he woke up.

She sat there, constantly monitoring Adrian’s body temperature.

Until Adrian’s feverishly hot body temperature gradually subsided, she finally relaxed her tension.

...

Early the next morning, Adrian awoke from a deep sleep.

Upon opening his eyes, he immediately saw the girl who had fallen asleep at the bedside.

Looking at the girl’s sweet sleeping face, at the small hand held by his large hand, Adrian felt an overwhelming sense of guilt.

She had looked after him all night.

If he wasn’t mistaken, he had another episode last night.

She, however, stayed by his side, she cared about him, and he knew it.

Besides the guilt, a touch of delight appeared.

Little wildcat, I knew, you care about me.

Adrian released the woman’s small hand, got out of bed, and stood by Melody Parker’s side.

Then, he tried to lift Melody Parker onto the bed to sleep.

But his strength failed him.

With just a small effort, the warning pain flared up in his still injured arm.

His arm still needed to heal; it would be used to shield the little wildcat and the kids from wind and rain in the future, it couldn’t just be wasted like that.

Moreover, if he insisted on picking up the little wildcat, he might wake her up. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

In the end, Adrian withdrew his hand.

He pulled the cover from the bed and gently placed it over Melody Parker.

However, Melody Parker still woke up.

She looked at the man with sleepy eyes, "Adrian?"

"Yes." Adrian responded softly, his dark eyes on Melody Parker, "Melody, go sleep on the bed."

Melody Parker ignored Adrian’s words, remembering that Adrian was still ill, she angrily chided, "Adrian, why are you out of bed? Who allowed you to come down? Don’t you know you’re sick?"

Adrian’s eyebrows and eyes carried a smile, "Melody, I’m already fine."

As he said that, his gentle eyes looked at Melody Parker, and he spoke warmly, "Melody, it must have been hard for you to take care of me all night."

Melody Parker blushed, "Who took care of you all night, I just accidentally fell asleep?"

Adrian looked at Melody Parker with amusement.

His little wildcat was still so stubborn.

Seeing Adrian’s meaningful gaze, Melody Parker’s face reddened even more.

She glared at Adrian and defiantly shouted, "If it weren’t for feeling sorry for you being sick and always holding onto my hand not letting me leave, do you think I would..."

Adrian stretched out his intact arm and pulled Melody Parker into his embrace, "Melody, there’s no need to say anymore, I know you care about me."
