Molly took a step back, her face flushed. However, she did not give it much thought after so long of
getting along. She quickly calmed herself down and said, “I heard you weren’t feeling well, so I came to
check on you.”
Molly had no idea Sean would become ill in her care. She was concerned and rushed over because she
did not know if it was her dereliction of duty. Sean tidied up the neckline of his shirt and said
disapprovingly, “I’m fine, it was just a little feverish last night, and I’m feeling much better now.”
Despite having a severe illness, Sean would not collapse as soon as he became ill. He believed she was
overly concerned.,
Molly paused for a moment before stepping forward and touching Sean’s brow. ‘Sean had a fever before,
and it wasn’t long ago; why did the fever come back this time?’ she wondered.
Molly was probably too serious about her job, and as a doctor, she believes in gender equality.
Molly was engrossed in her thoughts and did not notice Sean staring at her. “You’re really okay,” she said
as she retracted her hand that had reached out.
Sean’s eyes flashed, and seeing that Molly was concerned about his health, he remained silent.
“Your body is still a little weaker than you thought; otherwise, you wouldn’t have had fever several times.
You still need to recuperate and replenish your body,” Molly said.
Molly was already planning what prescription to give him, which herbs were more appropriate and
gentler to use, whether the treatment needed to be coordinated with his body, make minor changes, and
so on. Sean lowered his head, slightly disagreeing, “Don’t worry about my health. It’s just an occasional
cold.”Nobody wants to be on medication all the time, and Sean is no exception. Aside from work, his life
revolves around his illness and treatment. Although he must follow the doctor’s orders as a patient, he
believes it is preferable to be less troublesome.
“Is that all?” Molly stated. “Do you believe you’re fine? Your body is not getting enough exercise, and its
resistance is no better than that of the average person. Suppose you allow a few minor illnesses to
progress into serious illnesses. In that case, the root cause of the disease is likely to be fatal, and you
will be sorry later! Your body is undeniably weak.”
Molly had been a doctor for many years and is well-versed in the psychology of her patients. They
disliked being told to take medication and treatment daily, which made their lives monotonous, but a
doctor could not help them.
‘I wouldn’t want to talk about it all day if Sean didn’t get better soon.’ Molly pondered.
Sean has grown accustomed to being nagged. He also understands Molly’s concern, and what
she said is accurate. It’s just…
‘Am I really that weak? It doesn’t feel good to be told that by a woman.’ Sean pondered.
novelbinFor a long time, Sean and Molly remained silent.
Molly frowned slightly as she looked at Sean blankly. Then she remembered what she had just said. She
was taken aback and realized she had unintentionally harmed a man’s self-esteem.
‘I’m just saying it like other doctors and don’t mean anything else!’ Not to mention my ambiguous
language! But, if I explain now, will the situation worsen? What if he misinterpreted me even further?”
Molly pondered.Molly coughed lightly, trying to break the silence in the room as she felt uneasy in her heart.
Sean did not even bother to look at her. As a result, the situation was even more awkward at this point.
They both froze, not knowing what to say.
‘Sure enough, a man’s self-esteem is inviolable,’ Molly thought. ‘Should I explain it to him now?’
