The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 520

I knew Tiffany was blunt, but I had no idea she was a master at psychological warfare.

Lawrence already had a massive chip on his shoulder when it came to me. Even though I had been covering his surgeries lately, hearing anyone praise me only fueled his resentment.

Tiffany's comment about the student surpassing the master was guaranteed to make his blood boil.

I instinctively stood up, hoping to smooth things over, but he was already gone.

The head nurse chased after him, calling out, "Mr. Logan."

Amber lingered for a second, dropping her voice to a whisper in my ear. "Ms. Thorne threw a massive fit this afternoon, crying about her heart and ribs hurting. She specifically demanded Mr. Logan. He swapped her pain pump, but she kept claiming it wasn't working. She ran him absolutely ragged, and he couldn't even complain. We were starting to think he had somehow offended the Thorne family. She didn't seem this high-maintenance before."

A realization clicked in my mind. I patted Amber's shoulder. "I doubt that's it. Go get back to work."

Amber hurried off down the hall.

I turned back, only to meet two sets of highly amused eyes.

Caspian's lips curled into a wicked smirk, radiating that devastating, seductive charm of his.

Tiffany looked incredibly smug. Tilting her small face up at me, she looked like a puppy begging for praise. "Selena, did that make you feel better?"

So she really had provoked Lawrence on purpose?
