    Dominic shook his head with an exaggerated sigh "collin, Linsey has yourpletely under her spall

    For ance, Collin didn''t bristle at the testing


    He just raised an eyebrow, making no effort to argue like he fully owned it.


    Meanwhile, Linsey''s face grew warm with embarrassment.


    Collin was the one being talked about, so why was she the one feeling awkward?


    Dominic pped a hand on Collin''s shoulder and steered him toward the exam room.


    His arm took the worst of the damage.


    By now, the pain had dulled, but the marks on his arm were still startling.


    At the examination room door, Linsey started to follow Collin inside, but he held up a hand to stop her.


    "Just wait for me outside," he said.


    Linsey frowned, concern flickering across her face. "Why?"


    She needed to see his injuries for herself.


    Collin didn''t exin much. Instead, he reassured her in a soft voice, "Be good, Linsey. Wait for me outside. I won''t take long."


    Dominic shot Collin a nce and immediately understood why.


    Collin just didn''t want Linsey to see his wounds and get upset.


    Ah, love really made people act irrationally.


    Lately, reading Collin''s thoughts had be almost too easy.


    And yet, Linsey remainedpletely oblivious to his obvious affection.


    As Collin''s close friend, Dominic naturally yed along.


    "Don''t worry, Linsey. With me here, Collin will be just fine," Dominic said, shing her a grin.


    The moment he stopped talking, Collin swatted him lightly.


    "What was that for?" Dominic asked, clearly baffled.


    Collin,pletely expressionless, warned, "Don''t smile at my wife like that."

    Linsey smacked him this time. "Cut it out."


    With all the fuss Collin was making, she decided not to push any further.


    She turned to Dominic and said softly, "Dr. Larson, I''ll leave him in your hands." Dominic nodded.


    It was just a routine wound check and dressing, but these two were acting like it was a high-risk surgery.


    Half an hourter, back in Collin''s hospital room, Dominic studied the test results in his hand-and suddenly


    wanted to take back his earlier confidence.


    His brows knit together as he examined the X-rays, his expression growing more serious by the second.


    Linsey''s heart skipped a beat. "What''s wrong? Is it serious?"


    Dominic nced at Collin. "Seeing how calm he looked, I assumed his injuries weren''t too bad. But his arm bone is nearly broken. And on top of that, his other wounds barely missed vital areas."


    He let out a sharp breath before turning to Collin. "What were you thinking? You''re practically risking your life!"


    Sometimes, he forgot just how much pain Collin could endure.


    Collin''s pain tolerance was far beyond what most people could handle.


    Linsey''s heart skipped a beat at Dominic''s words.


    It was that serious?


    She quickly nced at Collin''s arm, worry and lingering fear clouding her face.


    When he saw her on the verge of tears, Collin''s breath tightened.


    His voice came out low and hoarse as he reassured her, "It''s really not that bad. For me, this is just a minor injury-Dominic''s exaggerating. Once we''re home, I''ll rest properly, and recover in no time."
