Chapter 39 Did You Two Go on a Date?
Knowing that Nolan had misunderstood, Bethany blushed and quickly reminded Raymond, "Explain to your friend, and don't let him misunderstand."
"Don't worry about that," said Raymond.
"Don't worry? Because it isn't his reputation that would be ruined, is it?" Bethany thought.
"If you're ready, then we'll start." Bethany picked up a needle.
When she looked at him, the biggest visual impact on her was not his sturdy abdominal muscles, but the eye-catching scar near his heart.
"Was this the scar caused during the mission you mentioned?" This scar looked particularly frightening, and it could be imagined how he had been injured.
"There are many scars on my body. Do you want to see them?" Seeing Bethany so interested in his scars, Raymond joked and began to untie his belt.
Bethany hurriedly stopped him and said angrily, "What are you doing? Who said I want to see them?"
"You want to be Mrs. Zavala, but you don't have enough courage," Raymond sneered contemptuously as he buckled his belt. "If you have admitted that you want to be Mrs. Zavala by pleasing my son, perhaps I would get a marriage license with you in order to get rid of Aria Shepard."
He was mocking she was too clever for her own good. He believed that Bethany must regret it now.
In recent days, Bethany feels quite unlucky. She had encountered a medical accident, internet abuse, the trouble brought by Mr. Shepard and Aria, and even the portrait of Mrs. Gina was strangely lost.
She had been feeling upset, but when she heard Raymond's words, she smiled heartily.
"Raymond, I really thank you!" Bethany expressed her gratitude earnestly. "Since becoming a doctor, I have met countless patients. Your illness is the only one that can make me so happy."
Raymond squinted at her, keeping a cold face, not understanding her meaningful words.
"If you don't trust me, we can sign an agreement. The agreement will state that we are just fake boyfriend and girlfriend and will never get a marriage license. Once Aria Shepard completely gives up on you, we will immediately terminate this relationship. If one party breaches the contract, the party will have to compensate the other party by one billion dollars. What do you say?"
Raymond's face became increasingly gloomy. He thought, "This dead woman! She's not only tough but also arrogant!"
"Are you going to do acupuncture or not?" Raymond ordered, "My time is precious. You can't afford to waste a minute of my time!"
"Okay, Mr. Zavala." Bethany began to treat him. Although they had some grudges, as a doctor, Bethany was being absolutely careful.
At the beginning of acupuncture, her cellphone rang. It was Shayla. Because she was afraid of delaying Raymond, Bethany opened the phone and turned it on hands-free.
"Beth, you should be off work now, right? Why haven't you come back yet?"
Bethany gave Raymond treatment when she got off work. She owed him money and had to repay it.
"I'm having a home visit. You guys eat first and don't wait for me."
"A home visit?" Shayla didn't believe it at all. "You've gotten off work. Why did you go for a home visit? Are you going on a date? Is Raymond next to you?"
"Shayla, you are really smart. You guessed it right." Before Bethany could speak, Raymond interrupted.
Bethany really wished to give him a punch.
"That makes sense," Shayla said helplessly. "Beth, Tyrone and I won't stop you from marrying someone. You don't have to lie to us for a date."
"I didn't..."
