Regret H 734
Chapter 734
Jane smiled
Charlotte observed that smile, feeling a sense of understanding.
On the other side, the female doctor exited the room and respectfully reported to Zachary
"Mr. Collins, there are tears in the private area, and some redness and swelling, but it's not too serious. I've prescribed medication. It should heal in a few days, but for now, no bathing, just wipe off any sweat, and avoid vigorous exercise or swimming at the beach." Zachary raised his hand, and Roy escorted the female doctor out.
He didn't linger.
But just after taking a step, the door behind him swung open wide.
Nina timidly leaned against the door. "Zachary, I... I can't see, I can't apply the medicine."
Zachary's expression was unreadable. "Didn't the female doctor apply it for you?"
Nina quickly responded, "What about the next few days..
Zachary replied coldly, "I'll arrange for her to come again!"
After saying that, he strode away.
*Nina finally removed her facade, her expression twisting into something sinister.
Zachary reached the end of the corridor and saw Frank standing at the door, knowing Charlotte must have told Jane about what happened earlier.
With everything that had piled up over the night and the day, he was already irritated.
He found Frank particularly annoying.
"Getting married yet acting like a henpecked husband."
Frank caught the sarcasm in his words and retorted, "At least I've brought someone home as my wife, unlike you, who doesn't even have the chance to be henpecked. Zachary's jaw tightened. "If you two hadn't interfered, I could've easily brought someone home."
"Oh?" Frank wasn't holding back. "You still don't even know who you're going to marry? Are you hoping to marry both of them?"
Zachary bit back his anger, barely refraining from punching him.
"Did you choose not to go out with your wife just so you can come and insult me?"
Frank pointed a finger at Zachary and shook it from side to side. "Not at all."
Zachary's expression softened slightly. "Alright, at least you have some conscience."
Frank grinned mischievously. "I'm here to see you. I want to know what kind of miserable end you'll meet. As
********
a friend, I have to come to collect your remains"
Zachary could no longer tolerate it "Want to spar?"
"Sure "Frank turned and knocked on the door, saying to Zachary, "I need to inform my wife"
Zachary coldly scoffed, "What a show off"
Such an insult was nothing to Frank.
"It's not like you've had the chance to show off before you're heading to your end."
Zachary was rendered speechless.
At that moment, the room door opened, Charlotte saw Zachary hooking his arm around Frank, and Charlotte chose to giving them space.
But Frank turned to her and said, "I'm taking a one-hour leave."
Charlotte was puzzled. "What's going on?"
Frank casually gestured toward Zachary. "Someone wants a beating."
Zachary gritted his teeth, thinking that he would definitely make Frank pay in the ring.
"What's up?" Jane stepped out and asked. "What's going on between you two?"
Upon seeing Jane, Zachary's anger dissipated instantly. He lowered his mouth and said, "Jane, Frank is bullying me."
Charlotte and Frank looked at each other in confusion.
Jane wondered, 'Why is he suddenly being so affectionate?'
"Frank, let's go." Charlotte spoke first after a moment of silence.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Frank initially thought that since Zachary was in a bad mood, a few rounds in the ring would help him vent
his anger.
He hadn't expected that the usually aloof Zachary would get all flustered over a relationship.
