She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 951

"Hmm... your vitals don't point to any dysfunction in that department," Silas muttered to himself before leaning in to whisper to Lilian.

"Are you absolutely sure... the girl dumped him because he can't perform?"

"I'm positive!"

Lilian answered with absolute, unshakeable certainty.

"Well, that's just bizarre..."

Silas's frown deepened.

He reached out and checked Preston's pulse a second time.

"These readings... he should be perfectly capable! Oh, whatever..."

Silas shook his head, doubting his own medical expertise for the very first time.

"Listen to me, son. Drop by my new clinic later. I'll write you up a customized course of bio-supplements. Stick to the regimen, and in a month... I guarantee you'll be feeling like a new man."

Seeing Silas thump his own chest with total conviction while Lilian beamed proudly from the sidelines, Preston finally realized exactly what was going on.

After thanking them both politely, he turned and made his way back to Melanie.

"What did Minister Halevy and Dr. Carter want?"

Melanie asked curiously, taking a delicate sip of her Century-Old Highland Scotch.

"They're under the impression that I'm impotent."

"Cough! Cough, cough..."

Melanie choked violently, sputtering as the liquor caught in her throat.

Preston quickly stepped in, rubbing her back.

The Scotch was strong enough on its own, but the shock sent her into a coughing fit that turned her cheeks bright red.

Finally catching her breath, she looked up at Preston, utterly bewildered.

"Why on earth would they think something so ridiculous?"

As she asked, her eyes raked over him from head to toe.

Dressed in the commanding Charcoal Mandarin Tunic, Preston exuded an aura of total dominance. He was the furthest thing from lacking stamina.

"You definitely don't look the part... how did this happen?"

Seeing her try to hide her smile behind her hand, Preston didn't even have to ask to know what wild scenarios were playing out in her head.

"What am I supposed to do now? They've completely misunderstood..."

His low, gravelly voice instantly snapped Melanie back to reality.

He wasn't finished.

"My reputation is in absolute ruins. How are you going to compensate me for this?"

Melanie opened her mouth, ready to point out that this wasn't her fault.

But considering she was the one who had brought up her "ex-boyfriend" to Lilian in the first place, her defense felt rather flimsy.

"Fine, name your price. What do you want?"

She looked at him with an expression of mild defeat.

A wicked gleam flashed in Preston's dark eyes as he closed the distance between them, his towering frame practically caging her in.

He leaned down, his lips hovering just a fraction of an inch from her ear. Even without direct physical contact, the searing heat made Melanie feel as if he had already taken her earlobe between his teeth.
