Chapter 423 Calm Down
As Harvey knew how serious the situation was, he told Nicole to use a simple mix of medication to ease the condition through an injection. It could help ease Colton’s problem if it wasn’t so severe. Unfortunately, if it was serious, there may not be any effects.
On the other hand, Nicole could only do all she could and give it a shot. Luckily she had stayed at the Gardner’s Residence for a short period and knew where their medicine box was.
She followed Harvey’s instructions dutifully, retrieved the medications, and mixed them. By the time she returned to the room, Colton was still in the bathroom.
The sound of the water in the bathroom was deafening, and it seemed to be flowing endlessly.
She knocked on the bathroom door and shouted, “Colton Gardner, I have some medication for you. Harvey said that it would get better after this shot. How are you feeling?”
She waited outside for a while, but there was only the sound of water inside and nothing else. She patiently yelled again, and still, she received no answer.
She had a feeling that something was amiss. Did he pass out in the bathroom? What if something untoward happens to him? At the thought of this, she set aside everything and rushed in. In the end, Colton was sprawled in the bathtub, and his hand was holding his groin area.
Despite the mist drifting in the air, it could not hide his private area, which was completely exposed in front of her eyes.
Dumbfounded, she felt as though the bottom of her feet was glued to the floor, and she couldn’t move an inch.
There was no doubt that Colton was undeniably gorgeous, and under his usual suit and tie dressing was a masculine body filled with testosterone.
The outlines of his muscles were graceful and bursting with beauty. Half of his dark hair was wet, and the water droplets flowed along his hair, dripping slowly on his body. This scene was more attractive than the models in films.
A hot flush washed over Nicole’s face, and she nervously looked away. Then, she simply grabbed a towel from the rack and covered his lower body.
She glanced at the syringe in her hand, toughened herself, and stabbed it into his arm. After the shot, he finally recovered his senses, and a slight hint of composure was visible in his eyes.
Nicole immediately let out a relieved breath as she hurriedly crawled out of the bathtub while he loosened his hold on her.
As Benedict’s birthday party was today, she had put on a slightly fitted dress. Thus, the dress clad her body tightly after a soak in the water, silhouetting her perfect figure.
She looked a little pathetic, but fortunately, her makeup wasn’t thick, or else she would be a sea monster at this point.
She peered at Colton, who was still sitting in the bathtub and felt frightened tremors assaulting her body from the incident earlier, and asked in a shaky hush, “Colton, a-are you okay?”
He didn’t say a word and simply sprang up directly from the tub, startling her so much that she staggered backward.
