Chapter 89
However, Emmanuel was the only exception.
He would always examine her body naturally as though she was just a
patient to him, nothing else.
Claudette didn’t know what to think about that.
It was getting late when the consultation came to an end. Emmanuel
grabbed his medical kit and made to leave.
Claudette offered, “Dr. Lowe, let me give you a ride.”
Before Emmanuel could reply, she added cheerfully, “I’ll just sit in the car
without moving. That won’t worsen my condition, will it?”
Emmanuel grinned. “Okay, then.”
They got into the Rolls-Royce and headed back to the Yociam Residence.
Coincidentally, a Bentley pulled up at the entrance when they arrived.
“Stop the car!” Mackenzie quickly ordered her driver when she saw
Emmanuel hopping out of a Rolls-Royce ahead of them.
Claudette then got out of the car, seemingly reluctant to bid goodbye to
Emmanuel.
Mackenzie couldn’t believe he was capable of seducing the heiress of the
Lenoir family!
Meanwhile, Claudette could barely hide her curiosity. “Dr. Lowe, I had no
idea you live in this high-end residential area. Do you live here alone?”
It was clear she wanted to spend more time chatting with Emmanuel.
“No. I live with someone else,” Emmanuel replied honestly.
“Oh, are you living with your girlfriend?” Claudette asked cheerily; her tone
tinged with a hint of anxiety.
Emmanuel was taken aback, not knowing how to answer her question.
Claudette chuckled aloud and deliberately teased, “What’s the matter? Is
it inconvenient for you to tell me about it?”
“Mm, you could say that,” Emmanuel responded vaguely with a curt nod.
He and Mackenzie signed a contract, and they would be getting a divorce
within six months. He didn’t feel like telling others that she was his wife.
Besides, he was also aware that Mackenzie didn’t want her friends to know
that she was already married.
After hearing his answer, Claudette tensed up as bitterness washed over
her.
A while later, she grinned and replied, “I had no idea you have a girlfriend,
Dr. Lowe. I thought gynecologists won’t be interested in women!”
Emmanuel explained solemnly, “Ms. Lenoir, I have no interest in my
patients, let alone harbor any ill intentions toward them. You don’t have to
worry about that.”
The bitterness in Claudette’s heart grew more intense as her smile faded.
“Of course I trust you, Dr. Lowe. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have hired you to treat my condition. I was actually thinking of hiring you as my personal
doctor if your girlfriend doesn’t mind.”
“Thanks for the offer, Ms. Lenoir. However, I’m currently not looking to be
someone’s personal doctor, at least not at the moment,” Emmanuel
declined her offer politely.
“All right, then. I’ll take my leave now.”
