Chapter 412

Glynnis sat alone in her sports car, gathering her courage for a long while before she finally stepped out and walked into the hospital. She didn’t dare bring anyone with her, because this matter had to remain confidential. The more people knew, the more risk there was. Glynnis nudged the door, and to her surprise, it swung open! The hospital was empty, as if it was waiting for her arrival.

Just then, Glynnis‘ cellphone ráng. On the screen was Victor’s number, which she had just saved!

“Hello,” she answered, forcing herself to sound calm while glancing nervously around.

“Miss Abernathy, I’m waiting for you in my office on the second floor. Come up,” With that, Victor hung up without further ado.

Glynnis gritted her teeth, ascended to the second floor, and pushed the door to the office open.

At that moment, Victor was sitting on the couch in his white lab coat, smiling at her.

Seeing him, Glynnis‘ pupils contracted; she finally understood why Elspeth was so infatuated with this doctor. He was handsome and refined, quite a catch.

“Miss Abernathy, you’re prompt. I thought I’d have to wait,” Victor said with a smile, totally at ease.

“Let’s not waste each other’s time, Victor.”

Glynnis calmed herself down, her voice cold, “You know exactly why I’m here.”

“Is Elspeth doing well?” Victor didn’t answer her directly, instead he smiled teasingly, “I haven’t seen her in a while. To be honest, I miss her.”

“Shut up!”

Glynnis, her eyes blazing with anger and abashment, pointed at Victor’s mocking face, “My mom is the lady of the renowned Abernathy family, a woman of high standing. She’s not someone you can covet.”

Victor shrugged, “I’ve never coveted her. From beginning to end, it was Elspeth who threw herself at me.”

“Enough! Stop talking!”

Glynnis took an abrupt step back, a wave of nausea rising from the pit of her stomach, “Give me the stuff. Now!”

“Miss Abernathy, you’re a privileged young lady, enjoying in affluence since little. Even if you don’t understand the ways of the world, you should know how to ask for favors. At the very least, you could have made some polite conversation,” Victor’s expression lay somewhere between a smile and a smirk.

Glynnis gritted her teeth, her voice hard as she said, “Victor, since you and my mom are so close, please give me what my mom asked for. It’s the least you could do after all this.”

Victor didn’t say anything. He leisurely took out a stainless steel medical box and shook it.

“All of the medicine is in here.”

Glynnis‘ eyes lit up, and she hurried over to grab it, but just as she reached for it, Victor pulled the box back. She grasped at nothing!

“What are you playing at?!”

“I have a relationship with Elspeth, but I have none with you, Miss Abernathy. So I can’t just give this to you,” Victor squinted at her in a way that was both deliberate and suggestive.

This blatant gaze, like a fire burning from head to toe, gave Glynnis goosebumps and made her heart beat faster.

What was he up to? The way he looked at her, the tone he used, it was usually a clear sexual innuendo.

Could it be he wanted her? She was Elspeth’s daughter! Did this man want to have both mother and daughter? Was he into such taboos?
