She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor - Chapter 38

Benjamin Myers drove, with Hope Williams sitting in the car, watching the scenery
outside constantly recede. The dryness in her eyes meant the tears never fell.
Luke and Willow were clever, and if they noticed, the two little ones would start worrying
again.
Hope Williams calmed herself after a while. Although her mood was still downcast, her
delicate features had regained their usual composure, though her graceful nose tip was
still faintly red.
“Benjamin, I’m sorry for the trouble today.”
“Little Hope!” Benj amin Myers turned his head to look at her, “He is the father of Luke
and Willow, isn’t he?”

Hope Williams lowered her eyes and responded dully, “Mhm, but he’s not a qualified
father.”
Benjamin Myers’s gaze deepened, driving with one hand. He reached for a cartoon eye
mask in the car and handed it to Hope Williams.
Hope Williams looked slightly puzzled.
“Close your eyes, clear your mind, rest for a few minutes. You wouldn’t want Luke and
Willow to see something is wrong, would you?” Benjamin Myers’s voice wa s as smooth
and mellow as ever, with a gentle rise at the end.
Hope Williams lifted her fair hand and gently received the eye mask, looked up at
Benjamin Myers, and gave a faint smile. “Thank you.”
The car came to a steady stop at the school entrance.
Luke and Willow were each being led by a teacher; almost all the other children had
already been picked up by their parents, clearly the twins were anxious.
Hope Williams hurried over, and as soon as Luke and Willow spotted her, their unhappy
faces immediately lit up with smiles, sweetly calling, “Mommy.”
Watching this scene, Hope Williams felt a sharp sting in her heart and quickly embraced
the twins.
“Mommy, why did you come so late? The other kids are all gone, Willow almost thought
Mommy didn’t want brother and Willow, baby.” Willow’s expression was filled with
distress.
“Mommy would never not want my two treasures.” Hope Williams gently apologized,
“I’m sorry, babies, Mommy was late, it’s my fault.”
“Mommy, how did your hand get hurt?” Willow carefully noti ced the slight redness on
Hope Williams’s elbow.
“Why does Mommy keep getting hurt? First a mean dog bites your mouth, now you’re
hurt again. Can’t you be more careful?” Luke, holding on to Hope Williams’s hand, blew
on it and reproachfully scolded her lik e a little adult.
“Mommy must be in so much pain.” Seeing Hope Williams hurt, Willow couldn’t help
feeling distressed and tears started to fall.
“…Luke, Mommy’s okay, don’t cry, Willow, really, I’m fine. It’s just a little scratch, some
ointment will do. C an you help Mommy apply the medicine when we get home?” Hope
Williams busied herself comforting them.

“Okay.” The twins chorused.
“Bitten by a mean dog?” Having parked the car, Benjamin Myers swung by a pharmacy
to buy medicine and had just heard about Hop e Williams being bitten, which made him
tense up instantly, his eyes fixed on her.
“…” Hope Williams reflexively bit her lip lightly, her pretty face flushing with
embarrassment.
“It’s a long story, it’s in the past, I’m… I’m fine now.” Hope Williams wante d to escape
the subject quickly.
Benjamin Myers, seeing Hope Williams avoiding his gaze and speaking evasively,
suddenly felt puzzled. What kind of dog bites someone’s mouth?
“Hello Uncle Benjamin.” Luke and Willow politely greeted Benjamin Myers when they
saw him.
“Why did Uncle Benjamin come back from abroad?”
Benjamin Myers crouched slightly, gently ruffling Luke and Willow’s hair, his handsome
face breaking into a warm smile, “Uncle Benjamin hasn’t seen Luke and Willow for so
long, so he came back. And look, Luke and Willow have grown taller.”
“Did Uncle Benjamin miss us when he was overseas?”
“Of course, I did.”
“Did Uncle Benjamin miss us more, or miss Mommy more?”
Hmm?
What?
Hope Williams, who had been quietly listening on the side, had her sweet smile stiffen
suddenly.
“Willow…”
What kind of question was that!
Hope Williams looked at Willow, trying to signal her with her eyes, but Willow also
looked back at Hope Williams, and the little rascal even made two bizarre faces at her.
What is all this about.

Benjamin Myers chuckled softly, his voice gentle and earnest as it followed.
“I miss both.”
Hope Williams laughed dryly twice and quickly changed the subject, “Let’s get in the car
and talk about it, Luke, Willow…”
“Wait.” Benjamin Myers lifted his hand to clasp Hope Williams’ wrist.
The sudden warmth that touched her made Hope Williams, who was turning to get into
the car, startled for a moment. Her beautiful amber eyes were puz zled as she looked
back at him, “What is it?”
Benjamin Myers raised the medicine bottle in his hand, his voice tender as he spoke,
“Let’s apply some medicine to your wound first.”
Hope Williams looked around, “Here?”
“Yep, I’m sure you won’t apply it prope rly once I’m gone.”
Hope Williams gave an embarrassed smile, “There’s no need, really. This little injury will
heal soon enough.”
“What do you mean, no need? Mommy, you’ll get busy with work as soon as you get
home and definitely forget about the medicine, ” Luke said seriously.
“Exactly, Mommy. You have to apply the medicine properly.” Willow added, “Please,
Uncle Benjamin, help our Mommy apply the medicine. Mommy, we’re all watching you.”
Hope Williams was amused by the two little ones’ serious, child - like voices.
Benjamin Myers poured a bit of medicinal alcohol into his palm and rubbed it, “Little
Hope, even the kids are more sensible than you.”
Hope Williams offered a helpless, wry smile, “Sorry to trouble you, Benjamin.”
“It’s okay. It might hurt a bit, so just bear with it.”
His warm, large hand enveloped her fair wrist, while his other hand covered her elbow.
He was extra careful as he massaged, afraid of hurting her.
Everything around was silent, so quiet that it seemed only the wind could be heard.
Ho pe Williams subconsciously shrank her hand back, not because it was painful, but
because she felt awkward for some reason.

“Little Hope.”
“Hmm?”
Benjamin Myers lifted his head, which had been bowed, and looked at her intensely with
his gentle eyes. He sighed softly, “You need to learn how to take care of yourself.”
Hope Williams’ eyelashes trembled gently.
After treating the wound, Hope Williams su ddenly remembered that she had intended to
invite Benjamin Myers over for dinner that day. Now that her hand was injured, it
wouldn’t be nice to cook, so she suggested, “Let’s go out to eat instead. My treat, as I
promised you before.”
Benjamin Myers, unde rstanding Hope Williams’ reluctance to be indebted to anyone,
knew she would be uneasy if he didn’t allow her to pay for the meal that evening,
“Alright.”
After choosing a restaurant, Benjamin Myers drove there.
“By the way, Benjamin, I haven’t asked you y et, why did you suddenly come back to the
country? Weren’t you always planning to develop your career abroad?”
Benjamin Myers, his handsome face still wearing a gentle smile, exuded the demeanor
of a courteous gentleman with a refined, jade - like quality, “ Yes, that was my plan, but
there are important people back home whom I missed.”
Hope Williams wore an expression of someone eagerly watching drama, “So, you’re
saying you came back for someone you like?”
“Yeah.” Benjamin Myers chuckled lowly, his pitch - bla ck eyes looking at Hope Williams,
full of affection.
Hope Williams, engrossed in her metaphorical melon - eating, paid no attention.
…
After dinner, Benjamin Myers drove Hope Williams and her two children back home.
“Mommy, do you like Uncle Benjamin or Uncl e Liam Cloud better?” Luke and Willow
each leaned against one side of Hope Williams.
Hope Williams had intended to tell them a bedtime story, but she was caught off guard
by their question.
“Luke thinks both Uncle Benjamin and Uncle Liam Cloud are nice.”

“ Willow thinks Uncle Benjamin is nicer. Uncle Benjamin takes such good care of
Mommy, while Uncle Liam Cloud is always so stern.”
“No matter what, they both like Mommy, but who do you like?”
