Lily suddenly feels that Rex was cuter when he was worried about her just now.
She doesn't look in the mirror and put her hand on the door handle. "Open the door, I want to go
home."
Rex knows that she is shy and does not continue to flirt with her. He opens the car door and gets off
with her.
The elevator in the garage goes directly into the house. After they enter the living room, they change
their shoes. Fanny is making soup in the kitchen. When she sees them, she hurriedly comes out to
welcome them.
"Mr. Rex, Miss Lily, welcome back."
Rex smells the wonderful aroma from the kitchen and looks at Fanny. "Since you came back, we
always have soup at home. You can have a dietitian certificate soon."
Fanny chuckles, "Of course, Miss Lily needs to have some nutritious food. I'm willing to make soup for
her."
Rex is happy that Fanny treats Lily well. He says, "Fanny has been working here for a long time, so
let's give her a pay increase next month."
Although her salary has been increased each year at the rate of 10% or 15%, now that Rex personally
gives her a pay increase, it would definitely double.
Fanny is surprised. "Sir, I don't..."
"It doesn't matter. Just take it." Rex does not say anything else, but changes his shoes and pulls Lily
upstairs.
Fanny looks at Rex's back and knows that Rex is actually a very kind man. Although he always looks
serious, he is actually kind-hearted.
After all, Fanny is happy that she gets a pay increase. She goes back to the kitchen happily and
continues to make soup.
Lily is carried upstairs by Rex. He bends down and put her on the bed, bringing over the ointment that
Karl prescribed. "Lie down on the bed. I'll help you apply the ointment."
"Now?"
"Yes."
Although Lily still hasn't looked at her back in the mirror, she knows that it is definitely very scary. She
sits on the bed and doesn't move. "I'll do it myself."
"Let me help you," Rex says, "Lie down there and don't let me worry about you."
...
Rex has said that, so there is nothing Lily can do. She can only listen to him and lie down. She turns
over with her face on the cold bed, feeling somewhat uneasy in her heart.
She was afraid that he would feel disgusted when he sees it, and she is also afraid that it would hurt
when he applies the medicine.
However, Rex does not hesitate at all and directly lifts her clothes. However, he hesitates after that.
Lily turns around and asks him, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Rex's voice is very deep, and it doesn't sound like nothing.
Lily thinks that she has guessed correctly, so she says somewhat embarrassedly, "Is it very scary?"
Rex does not reply. He looks at the wounds. After being irradiated by the intense laser, all the wounds
on her back have been reopened.
Although there is no blood on the surface, the blood under the skin is still congested, and the lumps on
her back shock him.
After pondering for a moment, he gets up and goes to the bathroom. Not long after, he takes a clean
towel over. The white towel is still warm. Rex carefully wipes the skin around her wound before
squeezing the ointment onto the cotton swab.
The pale-yellow cream quickly melts when it touches the skin. It is very convenient to spread it with a
cotton swab. He doesn't have to exert any force on the cotton swab. However, he is still very careful.
He is afraid that he would hurt her and make her feel uncomfortable.
The wounds haven't hurt so much recently. But now with the ointment, the itchy pain comes back all
over again.
She clenches her teeth tightly when Rex applies the ointment on her wounds the second time,
forcefully suppressing herself from making a single sound.
However, although she doesn't make any sound, her body instantly tenses up. Rex knows that her pain
is severe, but there is no way to alleviate it. He can only desperately suppress the anxiety and gently
apply ointment to her.
Ten minutes later, he finally finished the hard task.
Rex almost immediately looks away and lets out a deep breath. "Stay still for a moment. Wait until the
ointment dry up."
He can't look at her wounds anymore. A single glance will make his heart ache so much.
Lily, on the other hand, doesn't seem to understand him. "Does it scare you? Let Fanny apply the
ointment for me later."
"Your wounds make me painful." Rex interrupts her. Seeing these wounds would cause a burst of
anger to surge in his chest. Even though he doesn't want to, he is unable to control it.
"I can't do anything when you are suffering. My heart is tormented. This has nothing to do with you.
Don't think too much." Without waiting for her response, he walks towards the balcony outside the
bedroom.
Lily looks over following his footsteps. He closes the balcony door and takes out a pack of cigarettes
from his pocket. He takes out a cigarette with his long finger and lights it impatiently. He lowers his
head to smoke.
The white smoke spreads out from his mouth. His expression is not very clear, but she can see clearly
that he is very depressed.
She has undergone treatment, endured the pain desperately, and her goal is firm. But she has never
thought that he is under more pressure.
She hasn't expected that. He must care her so much that he will feel anxious to see her suffer.
That's not good.
Lily feels that she has to think of a way to make him less anxious.
However, she can't think of a solution to this problem.
He is powerful and wealthy. He doesn't need anything else. He is wealthy both materially and mentally.
The only thing he cares is about her. But how could she use herself to comfort him?
Lily buries her head in the soft pillow and the familiar smell makes her think of something.
Actually, there is something she can do.
...
On the third day of Lily's treatment, because the ointment that Karl prescribed is very effective, almost
all the congestion on her back dissipates. She immediately takes a bath. Looking at the scars, which
look better than how they looked in the bathroom before, she heaves a sigh of relief.
Although the process is extremely painful, the effect is exceptionally remarkable. After the treatment,
the uneven scars seem to be erased. Although they are still obvious, the condition is much better than
before.
If she continues to do the treatment, the scars would definitely disappear in three months.
After thinking that, she feels much relieved.
She looks at the mini clock in the bathroom. It is about eleven o'clock. She wipes her hair dry and looks
in the mirror. She is wrapped in a bath towel and her cheeks are red because of the steam. She takes a
deep breath and walks out of the bathroom without changing her pajamas.
Rex is lying on the bed reading a report. He hasn't been to the company for a long time, but Orson
would still give him the monthly report.
This is a tacit understanding formed between them over the years.
The bathroom door is opened. Rex put down the report in his hand and looks at her. White steam is
rushing out from the door. Lily is wrapped in a white towel. Her shoulders are exposed, and her slender,
straight legs are also exposed.
Ever since she fell ill and lost her memory, he hasn't had sex with her. It isn't that he doesn't want to.
He has used his right hand to let out his desire many times in the middle of the night, but he still wants
more. Now looking at her, so pure and fragile, he could feel his desire thrashing about inside
himself.
