Chapter 199
“Your medical skills are really remarkable when you know both traditional
and modern medicine, Dr. Lowe! Even many veteran doctors are not your
match! Why did you decide to be a gynecologist?”
In truth, Claudette had wanted to ask that question a long time ago.
Besides the fact that Emmanuel was tall, dark, and handsome, she found him
different from other men because he emanated a mysterious aura. Like a
storybook, he riveted her interest.
“You flatter me, Ms. Lenoir.”
Alas, Emmanuel merely brushed it off without replying to her question.
The reason had something to do with his retirement from the military in
Northern Region, but he did not want to tell anyone about it.
Perceiving that he did not want to answer, Claudette tactfully gave up
pursuing the matter further. Since she already had him look her over and had
no other business there, she could only get to her feet and leave.
When she reached the door, however, she could not help glancing back over
her shoulder. “Are you free this Saturday, Dr. Lowe?”
Frederick was right outside the door, pretending to be busy. In reality, he was
secretly watching Claudette pursue his best friend.
Tsk, tsk, I always thought that she was reserved. Unexpectedly, she’s so
blatant this time! Is she openly asking a married man out?
“Sorry, Ms. Lenoir, but I have a prior engagement this Saturday. I’m going for a
laser tag game.”
“Oh, I see.”
Claudette feigned disappointment despite actually having known about it.
She then added, “I also love playing such a recreational game. Do you mind
bringing me along, Dr. Lowe?”
“Uh, I’ve got to ask the person organizing things first.”
“Sure. Thank you!”
“No problem!”
Finally, Claudette left.
Emmanuel promptly texted Beatrix, asking whether he could bring another
person. Naturally, his request was approved.
In fact, Beatrix furtively snickered.
Well, Claudette is really daring! She knows full well that Manuel is married, yet
she’s still throwing herself at him like a moth to a flame. While she looks
innocent and shy, she’s surprisingly bold in love!
Conversely, Emmanuel did not give the matter much thought after it had
been settled. Being a dense man, he never bothered to postulate about
women’s intentions. Of course, his wife was the exception to that.
After getting off work at the hospital, he went to Terence Group’s
any opportunity to interact with resident staff. Thus, he had no way of seeing
