Neera said sternly after an extended pause, “Excuse me! I’m not for sale or rent!”

Even though the offer of two hundred million dollars was very tempting, she had other
things to do, and she would not have the time or energy to treat him.
She did not want to make empty promises when she was not sure if she had the time.
lan was worried when he saw how quickly she declined the offer. “Dr. Garcia, are you
not happy with the amount offered? You can let us know how much you want, and we’ll
try to match it!”
Jean did not say anything, which meant that he agreed with what lan said.
Neera shook her head and said, “It’s not about the price but my time. I’ll be very busy
very soon, and I don’t think I’ll have time to treat you. I can only say no for now.”
lan wanted to continue to convince her, but Jean did not intend to make her life
difficult. “If that’s the case, I won’t impose on you, Doctor.”
He dropped the topic after that. Clearly, he did not want to force her to do something
she did not want.
lan had no choice but to drop the topic too, and the room fell into silence.

when I pinch here?”
Jean’s body stiffened. He said, “It hurts.”
“How about here?” Neera asked after switching to another spot.
“It hurts too.”
“How about here? Or here?” Neera pinched several spots consecutively. She went all
over Jean’s body.
Jean frowned and glared at her.
If I hadn’t known she doesn’t have any ulterior motives, I would’ve thought she was
trying to violate me!
He took a deep breath and tried to take his mind off the pinching. “It hurts too,” he said
coldly
Neera nodded and pulled her hand away. She took a bottle from her briefcase,
dispensed a pill, and handed it to Jean. “Eat this. It’ll help you alleviate the pain and

restore some of your vitality. I’ll prepare the bath for you.”
Jean nodded, took the pill from Neera, and sat up from his bed.
Seeing that there was nothing else he could do, lan left the room.
After he left, Jean went into the bathroom.
He saw Neera fiddling around with the controls of the bathtub.
The bathtub had many high-tech features. Neera could not find the button that
dispensed water.

Jean smiled when he saw that. He was about to reach out to help Neera when she
pressed a random button.
Jean quickly blurted, “Don’t touch…”
Before he could finish, water gushed out of the shower head above Neera.
Neera was shocked. She pressed the button again and turned around to look at Jean.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
Jean glanced at her and said, “You didn’t ask!”
“Why do you need such a fancy gadget to take a bath?” she grumbled as she lowered

The top of her body was drenched. Her white shirt became translucent and clung to her
body.
The right side of her hair was dripping with water. She looked like a mess, but there was
a certain sensuality to it.
