Chapter 250 It Might Affect Your Future Performance
Harvey snickered seeing how persistent Colton was. With his hands still skillfully handling the medicine, he taunted, “No, but I have known you for so long and yet, I have never seen you with a woman. Why won’t you get one now that you are in such a state? Don’t tell me there is something wrong with your you-know-what.”
Despite having his head lowered, Colton immediately sent a sharp look in Harvey’s way.
Harvey, in return, quickly shut his mouth as he was frightened by his friend’s contemptuous gaze. After whipping out a packet of medicine from the medical box he brought, he turned to Nicole and said, “Sister-in-law, his condition is a little more serious. He may need to ingest the medicine. Can you boil some water and mix this in, please?”
Nicole obediently took the packet from him and turned to leave.
After she left the room, Colton frowned and complained, “You are not allowed to call her ‘sister-in-law’.”
A puzzled look appeared on Harvey’s face right after Colton said that. Even though Colton and Nicole had yet to establish their relationship, Harvey had always addressed her that way. How come Colton is the one displeased about it when Nicole hasn’t even said anything about it? he wondered.
Colton’s expression turned dark when Harvey didn’t answer him. “I will have your clinic trashed if I catch you calling her that again.”
What an unreasonable man! Harvey filled the syringe with the medicine and rebutted, “Aren’t you afraid that I will intentionally poke you at a wrong angle when I give you your injection?”
“Go ahead,” Colton said calmly. “I will still go and destroy your clinic.”
What a tyrant! A demon, he is! Harvey silently cursed. He didn’t do as he threatened to, but out of his vengeful heart, he was rougher when he gave the injection.
After the treatment, Harvey still kindly reminded Colton out of his routine as a doctor. “It is probably because of the large dose of drug that you are suffering more. This injection will make you feel a little better, but there is no guarantee that you will be completely fine. I will let my sister-in-law… I mean, Nicole, bring you the medicine.”
Harvey was going to habitually call Nicole his ‘sister-in-law’ again when he suddenly remembered Colton’s threat. Halfway through speaking, he, with great difficulty, quickly changed the way he addressed Nicole. “It has ingredients that will help you fall asleep. You can either go to sleep after you drink it, or shoot a load before you take the medicine.”
“Okay. You are not needed here anymore. Hurry up and get out,” Colton brushed Harvey off as he withdrew his hand. He really did feel a lot better after the injection.
At least, the heat built up in his body seemed to have subsided.
Harvey pouted after hearing Colton’s cold words. Casting me aside after I am of no use? What an ungrateful man! he grumbled to himself before he outright objected. “Why are you telling me to go away after you have used me? Are you not even going to give me a drink? I rushed over for you even though I had something to do outside!”
Harvey was met with Colton’s cold gaze as soon as he was done rambling on.
Knowing better than to continue with his nonsense, he quickly shut up and left after meekly packing up his medical box in order to not be personally thrown out by the man.
After he went out, Colton was left alone in the room. The injection really did improve his condition. He could definitely feel his body cool down.
He rested against the head of the bed and waited for a while. The annoying heat might have disappeared now, but he was still very uncomfortable because of the drug.
He lowered his head to look at his member as he reached out to touch it, but he stopped himself just in time.
He didn’t know how much time had passed before Nicole came back with the medicine in her hands. She still had her guard up toward him because of what happened earlier on.
After she opened the door, she took a peek, and only trudged in when she saw that Colton’s cheeks weren’t as flushed as they were.
“President Gardner, this is the medicine Harvey prescribed. Here you go.” She placed it on the bedside table.
Colton’s eyes were clear when he opened his eyes this time. With a nod, he said, “Thank you, Nicky.”
She reacted by shaking her head and whispering, “Don’t worry about it. You were the one who saved me when I was drugged before, President Gardner.”
He took the medicine from the table, but was stopped by Nicole’s hand that blocked him as he was about to take a sip. She was visibly embarrassed when she stammered, “Uh… President Gardner? Harvey wanted me to tell you that it is best for you to take the medicine after… after you have had your release. The drug is too potent. He said that it might affect your… future performance if you don’t do it…”
Nicole couldn’t help feeling embarrassed as she fumbled to tell Colton what Harvey informed her.
