My Flirtacious Husband novel Chapter 1214

Chapter 1214 Nuzzled Against His Palm

When Cooper returned to the house hastily, the broken pieces of porcelain on the floor by the dining table caught his gaze. It seemed that the plate used to hold the cake was shattered. At that moment, Sally was squatting on the ground with Amanda in her embrace.

The little girl had her arms tightly wrapped around her head. Her face was pale, and she was groaning in pain.

Cooper squatted down and asked anxiously, “What happened, Mandy? Where does it hurt?”

“My head hurts.”

Amanda did not know how to describe the pain in her head. It was just agonizing to her. After replying to Cooper, she started crying and even tried to bang her head against Sally's arm.

There were many reasons for a child's head to hurt, and Timothy could not diagnose the cause of Amanda's headache just from observing her.

He told Johanna to take care of Lucian and Asel before driving Amanda and the others to the hospital. On the way there, he phoned the lead pediatrician in advance.

Amanda kept crying from her headache, so she lost her voice before they even reached the hospital.

Even though she was in Sally's embrace, she could not stay still. If not for Sally's tight grip on her body, she might have smashed her head against the car window. Eventually, she bit Sally's arm.

That diverted her attention, and her head did not seem to hurt as much.

Soon, Amanda fell asleep in Sally's embrace.

When they arrived at the hospital, the pediatrician quickly drew some blood and did a non-invasive CT scan of Amanda's head.

By then, it was already past nine in the evening, so many of the consultation rooms were already closed. However, Timothy was able to use his connections to obtain the results of Amanda's blood test and CT scan.

Genevieve had a rare blood type, but neither of her children inherited it. Her coagulation disorder, which she recovered from later on, was not passed on to her children, either.

Therefore, Amanda's blood test and CT scan showed that she was healthy and fine.

Timothy glanced at Amanda's CT scan results and asked Cooper, “Does Mandy secretly stay up late at night to watch cartoons? Inadequate rest can cause children to have headaches as well.”

In Cooper's opinion, Amanda was an obedient child who always listened to them, going to bed at half past nine after bathing.

He wiped the wound with a cotton swab soaked with iodine solution and cleaned the blood stains around it. After disinfecting the wound, he applied ointment to it and dressed it with bandages.

Once that was done, he raised his head and looked at Sally. “Does it hurt a lot?”

“No, it doesn't.” Sally was speaking the truth. It was not painful for her, which was why she did not flinch in the car. Nevertheless, she did not expect Amanda's teeth to be so sharp to leave such deep bite marks on her.

Sally knew Cooper cared a lot about her upon seeing the concern and distress in his eyes.

“I'm not lying. When I was training in the army, my comrades would break my arms every few days by accident. It was painful,” she said softly.

Compared to the pain she experienced in the army, the bite she got from Amanda was nothing

Cooper cupped Sally's cheeks with his hands as he said in a low voice, “I know you're capable, but you're still a human. You're not made of steel. I'll be concerned if you get hurt and bleed.”

Her heart softened at his words, and she nuzzled her cheek against his palm.

“Mmh, I understand,” she replied.
