The Enchanting Doctor With a Bite novel Chapter 74

Owen unwaveringly met Samuel's gaze. "I like Kyls. I've liked her ever since we were 13.

"Back then, I was too insecure to confess. And now that I finally have the courage, it's too late. Believe it or not, the one she loves is you."

"The one she loves is me?" Samuel let out a sudden laugh. "Was that part of your plan? Or is this just your unique take on love—cheap and full of tricks?"

Owen's eyes narrowed slightly. "As a man, being forced into marriage might seem humiliating to the outside world. But I don't think you care about public opinion."

Everyone knew Samuel was ruthless and decisive. If he cared about what others thought, he wouldn't handle things the way he did.

Owen continued, "You hold absolute power, Mr. Vance. If you couldn't accept this marriage, you could've rejected it outright. Kyls is a doctor, and she would never refuse to save someone in need.

"It's awful that you give her the cold shoulder and let her suffer humiliation over and over again after you agreed to marry her. I feel sorry for her."

Owen kept his gaze locked on Samuel.

Samuel calmly unfastened his sapphire cufflinks. He then rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong, toned forearms, his luxury watch glinting under the dim light.

He remained unmoved even after Owen finished speaking. His expression showed no signs of emotion—only a slight arch of his brow. "Are you done?"

"Yes. I've said everything, whether I should or not."

At the next second, Samuel's fist slammed straight into Owen's face.

Owen hadn't expected Samuel to throw a punch so suddenly.

He was quick, precise, and ruthless, not someone to be taken lightly. Even though Owen instinctively tried to dodge, he couldn't avoid it.

The punch landed solidly, and the metallic taste of blood instantly spread in Owen's mouth.

His fair skin made the bright red at the corners of his lips stand out even more.

Owen wiped the blood away and smirked, unfazed. "What's wrong, Mr. Vance? Did I hit a nerve?"

Another punch came flying at him.
