Chapter 283 Is She George's Girlfriend?
Emilia's frown was so deep it could crush a mosquito.
She took a big step back, wanting to quickly escape this troublesome place, only to find the other person had already placed his hand on the wall above her head.
"Miss, won't you consider me?"
The smell of disinfectant grew stronger as the mummy's hand was grabbed by a doctor in a white coat.
"Why are you running? You're already in this state and still not behaving? Lie back down!"
At the sight of the doctor, the man who had been exuding charm a second ago quickly stood up straight and left, looking back three times with each step.
George, wearing a mask and a white coat, looked at the still-dazed Emilia and knocked on her head with the back of his hand.
"You don't even know to avoid being hit on now?"
"I'm exhausted."
Having just come down from the boxing ring, it was already impressive that Emilia managed to come to George to get her wounds treated!
"Back to the boxing ring again? Do you really have to learn boxing?"
Despite his words, George still bent down to pick up Emilia and turned into a trauma treatment room.
Suddenly feeling weightless, Emilia blinked. "George, this is a hospital!"
The hospital was bustling with people everywhere, and he just picked her up like that. If someone with ill intentions saw it, it wouldn't be good!
George's expression remained unchanged.
"So what? Are you going to cause a scene? Frankly, even if you want to find a boyfriend, you should at least see what he looks like after the bandages come off."
After finishing the check-up, George put away the equipment.
"I'll find someone to pay the bill for you. Wait here; a nurse will come to treat your wounds."
"I can pay the bill myself! No need to trouble your assistant!"
Emilia struggled to sit up, but George pushed her back down.
George gave Emilia an annoyed look.
"What assistant? My assistant is off today. When I said I'd find someone, I meant myself!"
"Get some rest."
Fortunately, the ER wasn't busy today. Most of the patients were there for the flu, and there were no cases requiring him to go into surgery.
Watching George leave and close the door, it felt like he had shut out everything outside.
Lying on the bed, Emilia felt her heartbeat was a bit loud and irregular.
George was very good to her, but it seemed like everyone in the Windsor family was nice to her!
Emilia raised her arm to look at the burn scars still lingering there.
She had privately consulted several top plastic surgeons, all of whom said her burns couldn't be fully healed.
Someone as excellent and kind as George couldn't possibly be with someone like her who had nothing, right?
Besides, George was probably nice to her because she was Catherine's friend!
A nurse pushed a small cart in to treat Emilia's wounds.
"You're George's friend, right?"
"Sort of. I'm his sister's friend."
Under the nurse's scrutinizing gaze, Emilia knew that George carrying her into the examination room must have been seen by someone!
"You're Catherine's friend? No wonder George was so worried and insisted I come to bandage you up."
The nurse's voice had a teasing tone. Emilia looked up and saw the badge on her chest: Head Nurse!
"George said you're afraid of pain. I have a steady hand. It's rare to see him so concerned about a girl."
Maybe the head nurse's hand was indeed steady, and sensing the gossiping tone without malice, Emilia boldly spoke up.
"Is George very popular?"
"Popular? George clears out his WhatsApp contacts every year! All those female doctors, nurses, and pharmaceutical reps he meets at conferences."
With George's looks, impressive resume, and undeniable family background, many people threw themselves at him.
"Once, a patient even groped Dr. Shen's butt during George's rounds and accused George of harassing her."
"These things happen all the time. George now always wears a mask. Last time, an old lady insisted George marry her for the third time!"
Emilia's mouth was slightly open.
"Has George ever thought about switching hospitals?"
With George's skills and background, he could easily work at a more upscale hospital serving high-quality patients.
The head nurse smiled while wrapping Emilia's bandages.
"George and Gavin both have professional ideals. If they were afraid of these things, they wouldn't be in clinical practice."
Emilia nodded, somewhat understanding.
"Has George ever been in a relationship?"
The head nurse gave a meaningful glance at the shadow behind the curtain.
"You should ask him yourself."
With a swish, the curtain was pulled open, and George leaned against the door, his cold gaze falling on Emilia's face, his brows slightly furrowed as if wondering if Emilia's brain had been damaged too!
The head nurse chuckled.
"George, is this your girlfriend? Young lady, George is quite exceptional. He wins our hospital's annual awards every year and has never had a failed surgery!"
Watching the head nurse leave, Emilia hurriedly said, "George, aren't you going to clarify?"
George walked to the window, pulled open the curtains, and took a breath of fresh air.
"Clarify what? I am indeed the annual award winner and have no failed surgeries."
"No, I mean..."
Emilia felt she couldn't get the words out!
Was that what she wanted George to clarify? It was clearly the first part!
Or were the Windsor family members all this dense?
Seeing George's indifferent expression, Emilia began to doubt if she was overthinking.
Emilia shook her head.
"Never mind, let the head nurse misunderstand. With so many people bothering you, it's good for them to think you have a girlfriend. I don't mind being a shield!"
George's lips curled slightly.
The head nurse knocked on the door again, "George, there's an emergency surgery."
"Okay, coming!"
George looked at Emilia. "Rest here. I'll take you home later!"
With the emergency surgery urgent, George hurriedly left, leaving Emilia alone in the room.
Not wanting to trouble George, Emilia decided to get out of bed and leave on her own.
As soon as she stepped out, she saw a familiar figure and quickly hobbled over, hugging Catherine in the hospital corridor.
"Catherine! What are you doing here?"
"Emilia? You're hurt again?"
Emilia nodded pitifully, "Yeah, a new boxer came, and some people at Blade of Dusk who don't like me made me get in the ring."
Managing Blade of Dusk wasn't easy, especially for a pampered heiress like Emilia. The senior members often gave her a hard time.
"A new boxer? I see."
Catherine nodded slightly, knowing every person who appeared in the underground boxing ring.
It seemed Blade of Dusk had deliberately brought someone to trouble Emilia!
