Chapter 13: To act as a Patient

Luciel wanted to go back to sleep, but because Treyton and his doctor kept talking, he couldn't go back to sleep.

"So, Ciel, do you want to be a doctor?" Treyton asked, disregarding what he just said.

"No, I don't want to. I don't want to be busy all day long," Luciel answered while still being covered by the blanket and without any plan to open his eyes.

"You see, he doesn't have any plans to become a doctor."

"But it's a pity. Your skills are really good."

Luciel didn't respond, as he was still trying to continue sleeping.

Seeing that he wasn't planning on replying to the others, he also didn't wait for his reply and continued to talk.

"Ok, there is no problem with your wounds. You just need to take these medicines for the next few days. With your ability to recover, you could surely recover in just two weeks."

"That's still a long time."

"Don't worry; as long as you are careful, you can still work. You can use your other hand anyway."

"It is still inconvenient."

"Then don't be injured next time. I really don't understand why your grandfather still tries to involve you in those things."

"He just wants me to go back to the military."

"Why don't you just follow what he wants and go back? You shouldn't have been too excellent if you didn't want to be in the army."

"What about you? Why don't you just go back to your parents' hospital instead of staying in your own clinic?"

"Tsk. We are indeed friends. We have indeed been friends for a long time. Your personality had affected me too much."

"Heh, don't try to blame me for it. You just have a rebellious mentality from the start."

"Ugh, can both of you go out if you want to continue talking?" Luciel said.

They still continued talking, which didn't allow him to sleep peacefully.

"You know this is my room, right? And it's already 6 a.m. Why don't you just wake up if you can't go back to sleep?"

"Then I'll just go back to my room," Luciel said, sitting up on the bed.

Luciel finally saw the man who was talking with Treyton. With the conversation that he heard, it seemed that they had been friends for a long time.

He was looking at the two of them while the two of them also looked at him.

Treyton chuckled and said, "No need; you can continue sleeping. He would be leaving already.

By the way, this is Nathan; you can ask for his help in anything that is health-related."

"Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Luciel. Please don't visit too early next time."

"Ok, next time I won't visit too early," Nathan answered while smiling.

"I'll surely treat you to something good the next time you visit, as long as you don't come early in the morning."

"Then I'll be looking forward to your treat."

"See you next time," Luciel said, and continued to lay on the bed to sleep again.

"Ok, I won't disturb you guys any longer. I'll check your wounds again next time," Nathan said, and went out of the room.

"Yeah, see you later," Treyton said, and closed their room again.

"You disturbed my sleep, so don't wake me up before 10 a.m." Luciel said and went back to sleep. Thankfully, no one was disturbing him anymore, so he was able to sleep properly.

Luciel woke up naturally and saw Treyton sitting on the sofa while holding some documents.

"Good morning, Ciel. How's your sleep?"

"I finally had a good sleep. What time is it?" He asked while stretching.

"It is already near lunch time."

"That's great; I'll go and see what Nina had cooked for lunch," Luciel said, ready to walk out of the room.

"Didn't you forget that you are still a patient today?" Treyton said with a smile while looking at him.

"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm supposed to be a patient today."

He just woke up and immediately thought of food, so he temporarily forgot that he was indeed supposed to be the patient today.

"So, I am just supposed to stay in bed today. How long do I need to act as a patient?"

"Don't worry, you only need to act as a patient today."

"I can actually continue to pretend to be a patient as long as I don't need to just stay in this room."

He was staying at the villa anyway, so he could pretend to be a patient for a longer time as long as he could freely go to his room and downstairs to get food and other things.

"That's why I told you to only act as a patient today. It is only to act for Nina and those who were really interested in digging up details.

Tomorrow you could freely go wherever you want in the villa."

"I understand, so what about food?"

"Nina would take it up here later on."

"Ok."

"When did it start raining?" Luciel asked as he looked outside through the window.

The rain was pouring heavily, along with strong winds. He could see that the plants outside were all being destroyed because of it.

"It started as soon as Nathan went out. There was even no forecast about it, but it started pouring heavily as soon as it started," Treyton replied while starting to read the documents he was holding.

"I hope it will stop soon; all the plants in the garden would be uprooted if it continued to rain this heavily," Luciel said while frowning.

It was really a pity for the plants that were growing beautifully to be destroyed just like that. It would really be a pity for all the flowers to just be destroyed. However, it has been raining heavily for a few hours already and still hasn't shown any sign of stopping.

Knock, knock.

"Sir Treyton, your lunch is here," Nina said outside the room.
