Where do you get the material that says that Bhutan didn't want India's help at all in this situation? Because the Bhutanese online media certainly isn't claiming this. They are saying China was asked to maintain the status quo (stop building) in the area, and when China refused, India stepped in.
Something is not right. The reporting on this is very difficult to understand, frankly.

India is the transgressor on Doklam using specious arguments about its national security and dragging Bhutan into the fray when Bhutan had tacitly agreed that Doklam was Chinese.
China has exhibited tremendous patience with a foreign army on its soil, something other countries would not have stood still. Hope this will not blow into a full scale shooting incident and that India in all their wisdom pulls its troops back.
