Chapter 638
He then lowered his head and kissed her forehead softly, his lips brushing lightly across her skin, lingering on the bridge of her nose as their warm breath mingled.
After a moment, he said softly, “The doctor advised that I refrain from doing it.”
“What?” Eileen’s eyes widened in surprise.
She looked up at Bryan and asked, “What do you mean?”
Bryan avoided her gaze, tightening his hold on her waist as he replied, “Exactly what I said.”
“I think the doctor is making a mountain out of a molehill.” Eileen paused thoughtfully before responding earnestly, “There’s nothing urgent for you to handle at home.”
She could afford to let Bryan rest at home without any pressing concerns.
With a serious expression, Bryan pressed his lips together and raised his hand to gently pat her head. “I’m not in the best shape. But have you become foolish now?”
Frowning, Eileen pushed his hand away and retorted, “The doctor said you can move around. There’s no reason you can’t even go downstairs.”
She started to consider arranging a room on the ground floor for Bryan to avoid the hassle of climbing stairs.
Just then, a light cough came from outside the unlocked door. The door creaked open.
The doctor poked his head in and glanced at the two of them, standing close to each other. With a serious face, he said, “Mr. Dawson, we need to draw some blood before you leave the hospital.”
“Okay,” Bryan replied.
The doctor then looked at Eileen. He hesitated for a moment before adding, “Mr. Dawson needs to focus on resting when he gets home. He can’t overexert himself.”

“Okay, I’ll make sure he doesn’t overexert himself—no morning jogs or evening strolls, just like in the hospital,” Eileen said, attempting to break free from Bryan’s embrace.
But Bryan held her tighter.
The doctor paused for a moment before adding, “I meant no sexual activity.”
He closed the door and left.
Hearing the doctor’s words, Eileen froze, her body stiffening in shock.
Bryan noticed the change in her demeanor.
Eileen’s ears turned bright red as she stared at Bryan’s chest, too embarrassed to look up or say anything.
“Are you going to see a neurologist to check if you’ve really become stupid?” Bryan teased with a smirk.
Eileen pinched his waist hard and demanded, “So you went out just now to ask the doctor about this?”
Bryan replied innocently, “I didn’t ask about it, but the doctor felt the need to tell me.”
The doctor had clearly felt compelled to warn Bryan, especially since Bryan had already tried to leave the hospital several times to see Eileen.
“So, you need to seriously consider if marrying me is a wise choice.” Bryan knew that for now, he couldn’t offer Eileen much, except for a wedding.
“Do you think I’m marrying you for sex?” Eileen gritted her teeth, anger flashing in her eyes. “If that’s all I wanted, I could find someone else!”
