The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 487 - 475

Feeling slightly aggrieved, Clara glared at the man who got angry out of the blue. "I got an allergic reaction instead of you. Why did you roar at me? If I wasn’t afraid that you would be embarrassed, would I have eaten so many prawns and crabs? How ungrateful of you!"

"You..."

Ethan’s anger soon subsided. Feeling guiltier, he lowered his head more and whispered to her, "Why were you so silly? I thought you liked eating them, so I kept on peeling them for you..."

"You’re the silly one, not me!"

Clara rolled her eyes at him and complained grumpily, "You didn’t have to peel them for me even if I liked eating them. I’m nobody to you. Why did you exhaust yourself so?"

Ethan heaved a long sigh and shook his head. "Yes, I’m silly. I’m the silliest person in the world... You’re the smartest. There’s nothing you don’t know."

When William witnessed their ambiguous interactions, he felt rather sad.

"Clara, your allergic reaction needs to be handled right away. Follow me."

He bypassed Ethan and held Clara’s hand before he said in worry.

"Can we get another doctor?"

Annoyance engulfed Ethan as he glared at the hand on Clara’s arm with his beautiful eyes. He yearned to chop that hand off.

"Doctor Jones has one of the best medical skills in the field. It’s better to leave the patient in his care, given her condition, as to prevent a relapse," The laboratory doctor suggested sincerely.

"Humph! Can he get handsy with the patient if his medical skills are good? Is this a hospital or a brothel?"

"Excuse me, Sir, but why say such nasty things? Stop being rude to Doctor Jones or we will refuse to treat the patient."

"Did I say the wrong thing? He’s a doctor but has no medical ethics. Why did he hold the so patient’s hand so casually?"

Hence, William had no choice but to let go of Joanna’s hand quickly.

He nudged his glasses and looked at Ethan with a faint smile. "I’m sorry. I acted impulsively because my relationship with the patient is a bit special. I’ll be more careful.

"But I think the patient should be the one who voice out if I wasn’t being considerate enough. An outsider like you didn’t have to seek justice for her. What if the patient didn’t feel violated at all?"

Ethan was greatly infuriated.

Unexpectedly, a seemingly refined nerd like William was not such an honest man either. But on the contrary, he was rather crafty man. Ethan hated such people the most.

"Clara, tell us whether you feel offended and whether you want to get another doctor. Don’t make me look like I’m being unreasonable here."

"No, I won’t get another doctor."

Clara made a straightforward reply before she looked at William and said, "I trust your medical skills. You must cure me. I don’t want any scars. If not, I can’t get married."

"Okay, don’t worry. Of course, I’ll do my best for you."

After that, William led Clara forward like a winner.

"Where are you going? I want to go too!"

Seeing that, Ethan immediately pursued them like a child. He tried to persuade Clara, "There are so many good doctors in this world. I can get a great number of them with just a call. Why do you want this guy to treat you?

"This guy looks so young. I’m sure he doesn’t have much experience. Be careful of him ruining your face, now that you have it in his care."

When he walked to the treatment room door, a nurse stopped him. "The doctor will begin treating the patient. Please wait here."

"It isn’t surgery. Why can’t I go in? Is your hospital of standard? I’m going to lodge a complaint."

"I’m sorry, Sir, but you can’t go in. Please don’t disturb the patient’s treatment."

The nurse still acted responsibly and blocked him outside no matter how he made a clamor.

Sitting on the chair in the treatment room, Clara listened to Ethan’s shameless wails from outside. Consequently, this put hert in a dilemma and she was very confused.

’What’s wrong with him today? Is he in a drunken fit? Why did he go berserk all of a sudden?’

"Lean your head closer."

William was wearing white gloves. He was ready to use professional tactics to apply anti-allergic medication for her

After calling her name several times, she seemed to have still not heard him. All her attention seemed to be attracted by the noise outside.

"Oh, I’m sorry."

It was only then that Clara noticed his instruction. She obediently leaned her face closer to him.

"This medicine is a bit stimulating, so you may feel a bit of pain when I apply it to your face. But it’s highly effective, and it can help reduce the swelling rapidly. Just bear with me."

William patiently introduced the medication to her, and his techniques were very gentle.

"What did you say... Ah!"

However, she still did not listen to him. On the other hand, she was all ears while listening to Ethan’s words from outside. When she heard of something, she inevitably laughed. After that... she burst into tears out of the stimulation and pain because of the medication on her face.

"What did you apply on my face? Are you sure you’re not going to ruin it?"

Clara could not sit still because of the pain. The scorching pain on her face made her feel that he’d just applied sulfuric acid to her skin. It was killing her.

"It’s a strong anti-allergic ointment. It’s extracted from plants, so its acidity is a bit high. It’ll stimulate the skin and cause some pain, but it’s very effective. There are no side effects either, so it’s very safe to use."

While he explained, William applied a larger amount of medicine.

After that, the whole corridor was filled with Clara’s painful wails. "Ah!!! It hurts so much. I’m in so much pain. I don’t want to cure it now. I feel that my face will be burned and ruined. It’s so painful!"

"Bear with me. It’ll soon be over. Grab my arm if it’s too painful!"

William felt very sorry for her, but he had to firmly keep on applying the ointment to her face to cure her allergic reaction.

Standing outside, Ethan became more agitated the more he heard Clara’s pitiful and fierce wails. He completely lost all control of himself.

"That guy in glasses must be doing something bad! My friend is asking for my help now. Step aside. Let me in!"

Ethan no longer wanted to talk nicely with the nurse. He forcefully pushed the nurse away and barged into the room.

"B*stard! You’re a doctor, but you use your job to violate patients. I’m going to enforce justice for God today. I..."

He wanted to kick William away because he thought that he was doing something bad. Even his leg was now raised.

After that, he saw that William was applying medicine to Clara’s face.

Both William and Clara were flabbergasted.

Deep awkwardness engulfed Ethan. He coughed lightly and slowly put his leg down. "Oh, you guys are busy. Go on."

Dr. William’s face, however, was extremely cold. He raised his voice to the nurse outside, " get security and drive this man away. Who is going to bear the responsibility if the treatment is affected?"

"That’ll be unnecessary. I’ll be going."

Ethan was deeply embarrassed, but he still behaved like a frivolous and casual playboy. He raised his fist at Clara. "Don’t be scared. I’m here. No one can hurt you."

Consequently, Clara was amused. "Thank you. I’ll be very grateful if you’re normal."

Miraculously, the commotion Ethan made seemed to have given her the kind of effects an anesthetic did. No longer was she in so much pain. She was even rather... glad.

"What’s your relationship with him?"

After treating her, William could not help but ask.
