Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort

“I never like to explain anything, as it would feel like I’m trying to find an excuse for myself.” Zachary let out a bitter smile. “I figure those who truly know me will understand me. Probably this was the reason why so many misunderstandings occurred.”

“Did someone use the antidote to force you to send her away?” Dr. Felch started to figure out the whole truth.

“Yes.” Zachary nodded slightly. “But that’s not important. It was my fault since I was the one who didn’t manage to get hold of the situation…”

“That’s what I thought.” Dr. Felch analyzed rationally from his medical standpoint. “Logically, she wouldn’t be able to survive if she left like that unless she got the antidote. But still, I can’t understand. If she got the antidote, why does she still suffer from such serious side effects?”

“Something happened with the last antidote…” Zachary gave a straightforward answer. “On that day, Mrs. Berry got humiliated in the storm and nearly lost her life. Her brother managed to rescue her at that critical moment and brought her back to the Lindberg family.”

“Now I understand.” Dr. Felch let out a deep sigh. “So fate is toying with all of us.”

“I owe her too much. I only hope that she could recover soon…”

“What’s wrong with your eye?” Dr. Felch felt he saw something unusual. “I forgot to wear my glasses so I can’t see clearly. Let me check for you tomorrow.”
