Chapter 24
Charlie Hogg's sight gradually became clear.
He looked at Wendy Lim, who was also wet, and then looked at Farr Chiang who was standing nearest to him. He remembered that Wendy Lim jumped into the river to save him, but now the position and posture of his assistant....
Farr Chiang had to suffer in silence.
Charlie Hogg's face darkened and his mouth twitched, "I'll give you ten minutes to leave this cruise!"
"... Yes!" Farr Chiang wanted to cry.
Wendy Lim took advantage of the chaos and slipped away.
The next morning, Wendy Lim and another waitress were cleaning the guest room.
She was pushing the cart which was full of sheets forward when Charlie Hogg came from the corridor.
When he approached, Wendy Lim and the waitress stopped in a hurry and gave way to him politely.
He was still wearing a black suit, but the shirt inside was changed into a T-shirt, looked more casual. The faint morning sunlight shined into the corridor made him look much more prominent. Wendy Lim stood against the light. Her eyes moved from his deep eyes to the strong nose, then stopped at the thin lips.
The memory of last night emerged in her brain, and her lips were burning. It seemed that she could still feel the shape of his lips...
The waitress beside Wendy Lim found she was in a daze, and then pushed her, "Wendy, what are you thinking?"
"No...Nothing!" Wendy Lim shook her head.
Wendy Lim pushed the cart harder and then hissed. The waitress asked her, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine!" Wendy Lim shook her wrist.
Before she entered the guest room, she looked at the man who was walking away. It seemed that the man also looked back at her.
After cleaning up all the guest rooms, Wendy Lim had a break time before preparing lunch. She returned to the staff room. She shared the room with other seven waitress, but now she was alone. She found a strange thing. She didn't see Yolanda Lim last night... But it was the best thing for her if she didn't meet her.
Wendy Lim lowered her head and stroked the gauze bandage wrapped around her left wrist.
Usually, it took a week for a wound to heal. And it would take two weeks if the wound was on the joints. Especially on the wrist, it took more times to heal because the wrist often moved frequently. In addition, she was the kind of people whose wound was not easy to heal, so her wound still needed a few days to heal and get stitches removed. Last night, when she jumped into the water to save Charlie Hogg, she dragged him very hard, which caused wound dehiscence.
Today was her last day on the cruise. She couldn't get paid if she left halfway, so she had to stick to the end.
"Knock knock knock-"
Wendy Lim stood up and opened the door. It was Farr Chiang, who was driven off the cruise last night, standing outside.
Farr Chiang concentrated when he saw Wendy Lim. Forty minutes ago, he was still immersed in the sorrow of being driven off the cruise. However, he received a call from his boss and asked him to bring a doctor back to the cruise immediately...
Wendy Lim noticed there was a woman with a med kit behind Farr Chiang. He introduced the woman to Wendy Lim, "This is Nurse Hsia. She is here to do stitches for you!"
Nurse Hsia quickly prepared the sewing tools when she entered the room.
When sterilizing Wendy Lim's wound with alcohol and physiological saline, the nurse asked Farr Chiang standing beside her, "Mr. Chiang, you don't trust me?"
"I trust you. You've assisted Doctor Chin for so many years!" Farr Chiang replied with a smile.
Nurse Hsia smiled, took the scissors and sutures, and concentrated on sewing up the wound.
Wendy Lim looked at Farr Chiang. He stood straight and stared at the nurse's hands with a serious expression. In fact, he didn't need to stay here. Wendy Lim said to him, "Mr. Chiang, you don't have to stay here!"
"I will leave when everything has done. Otherwise, I don't know how to report to Mr. Hogg." Farr Chiang shook his head and said.
Wendy Lim was stunned.
