Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 694:

Daniela leaned back in her chair, her tone cold.

“Any updates on the investigation? What kind of food has kept Cedric in a coma?”

Linden was surprised by the turn of events. Before, Daniela had always communicated with the attending doctor for any matter. He felt somewhat flattered. Could Daniela be attracted to his charm? It appeared that no women were immune to his charisma.

Tonight, he intended to prove his skill in bed to Natalie, and on another day…

Linden’s eyes greedily scanned Daniela’s flawless face.

“Ms. Harper, rest assured, we are carefully working to identify the cause. I am certain that we will come to a satisfying resolution very soon. Ms. Harper, I hope you won’t mind a bold request. May I?”

Daniela responded,

“Go ahead.”

Linden chuckled and said,

“I’ve had the privilege of witnessing your authority up close and have always held you in high regard. I wonder if I could be considered to become your personal doctor in the future?”

The idea of a family doctor crossing professional lines with a female CEO was undeniably tempting.

Lillian nearly vomited on the spot. She was prepared to beat the shameless man, but Daniela held her back with a simple gesture.

A look of delight appeared on Linden’s face.

Daniela said coolly,

“Opportunities may arise.”

As Linden left, clearly pleased, Daniela turned to the attending doctor and said,

“Check the pastries.”noveldrama

The doctor gathered his trusted team to conduct a secret investigation.

Meanwhile, Nina sat at her dresser as Elyse carefully brushed her hair.

The emotional walls Nina had built recently came crashing down again.

During her visit to the hospital, she caught sight of Linden through the glass.

His demeanor was unpleasant. He had shifty eyes and a short, balding stature. He was precisely the type of person she found utterly unpleasant.

The bravery she had gathered in front of Daniela completely disappeared. She felt humbled and gloomy, overwhelmed with sadness and hesitation.

She could not bring herself to accept Linden, nor could she bear the thought of Cedric possibly finding her disgusting after learning she had been with someone so unpleasant.

Elyse comforted her,

“Nina, remember, nothing in this world is free. Every gain comes with its price. I know this is a steep price, but it will be worth it.”

Nina’s voice shook as she cried,

“Mom, promise me Cedric will love me.”

Elyse’s gaze was firm.

“I promise.”

As the evening set in, Nina dressed in seductive lingerie and was escorted to a romantic hotel suite.

The lighting inside was soft and dim, with rose petals scattered across the bed, creating the perfect atmosphere for what was about to unfold.
