The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2319

"Ah!" Melody yelped when the doctor's hand moved near the swollen area.

The doctor seemed relieved. "It looks like it's just a sprain, since there's no pain in the other areas. It's still safe for you to continue filming. However, you'll need a few days to recover from this sprain. Make sure not to aggravate the injury. Mister Lucas, you must ensure that your wife puts pressure on her left foot."

Lucas nodded solemnly. He would not let Melody's condition worsen. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After hearing that it was not a fracture, Melody sighed in relief. Being confined to bed at home for a few days was much better than resting for months.

Later, they went to get an X-ray, and when Lucas went to get medicine for Melody, Thalia was finally brought over by Raymond.

Raymond felt particularly unlucky that day, especially when he had to carry Thalia, who was not cooperating at all. She felt like a dead weight on his back. She would have fallen off if he did not hold onto her tightly.

'Isn't this woman afraid of falling off at all? Especially when she's injured her leg?' wondered Raymond.

He dared not touch her leg. After all, she was a stranger, so he needed to maintain some distance.

However, Thalia seemed to have her own thoughts. She almost wished she would fall and twist her leg to avoid getting her lie exposed.

'It'll be easy to fool if only Lucas is there. I'll be fine as long as those two farts didn't come as well!'

Thalia's worries were actually a little premature. When she was taken to see the doctor, Lucas was not there as he was busy getting topical medicine for Melody. Throughout the entire process, it was Raymond who accompanied her.

When the doctor asked which leg was injured, Thalia casually extended her left leg.

The doctor frowned and examined it, then said, "Miss Thalia, are you mistaken? Your leg looks perfectly fine. Where does it hurt?"

'There's no swelling at all. How could it be a sprain?' thought the doctor.

Thalia frowned impatiently. "Doctor, are you questioning me? Why would I come to the hospital if I didn't feel pain? Get me another doctor if you can't treat me. Don't try to use your question to cover your own incompetence, you quack!"

The doctor was really unlucky. He was working overtime, and he just had to land such an uncooperative patient. He had not even said a few words before he was labeled as an incompetent doctor, which was truly unjust.

Raymond, watching from the side, also felt sorry for the doctor. He cautiously nudged Thalia with the back of his hand. "If you're not in pain, let's go back. We shouldn't waste the doctor's time like this."

Thalia rolled her eyes dramatically. "Don't you understand human language? I said my foot hurts! You should get the doctor to take an X-ray to see if it's a sprain! Grandma Beatrice asked you to take me here, yet you're not even doing a good job of making sure I'm well taken care of! Aren't you afraid that I'll tell on you when I get back?"

Raymond was an honest man. After hearing what Thalia said, and despite feeling a lot of grievances, he had no choice but to apologize to the doctor and ask if they could proceed with the X-ray.

"Miss, I suggest you stop your nonsense. There would be swelling on the surface of your skin if it's a sprain. Besides, we only arrange for an X-ray if there's a possibility of a bone fracture. You're saying it hurts everywhere and insisting you've sprained your foot. It's really..."

Thalia smirked coldly and slammed her hand on the doctor's desk. "So what if I want to throw money at an X-ray? Are you going to do it for me or not?"

Raymond, fearing that Thalia was going to lash out at the doctor again, quickly intervened, "Doctor, please arrange the X-ray for us. We can wait for the results before making any further decisions. If everything's fine, we'll just go back."

Since they were determined to spend the money, the doctor had no choice but to arrange for them to have the X-ray done.
