Chapter 251
Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 251
When Claudette saw Emmanuel walk into the diagnostic room, she couldnât
help but feel a bit nervous.
Apart from the incredibly sweet experiences they had over the weekend, she
also noticed that his mental state wasnât too good, which burdened her
inexplicably.
âDr. Lowe, I feel a bit unwell againâ¦â Claudette took the initiative to speak, her
voice somewhat weak.
âLet me check your pulse.â
âOkay.â She extended her hand to Emmanuel, sensing that something felt
different compared to before.
However, Emmanuel proceeded to check her pulse as usual, but after that
initial touch, it was as if his soul had left his body.
After a while, Claudette asked softly, âDr. Lowe, how am I?â
âAh!â
Emmanuel jolted as if he had been electrocuted and awkwardly chuckled.
âSorry, I zoned out for a moment!â
He quickly resumed checking her pulse.
After a while, he said, âYou have a congenital condition influenced by the
snake venom in your body. You need to receive an antidote injection and rest
for two days, then youâll be fine!â
âOkay, thank you!â
âYouâre welcome!â
Emmanuel continued to treat her in his usual manner, leaving Claudette
somewhat disappointed. It made her feel as if no matter what she did, she
couldnât affect his emotions. Meanwhile, Mackenzie seemed to captivate him
completely!
The weight each of them held in this manâs heart was already evident.
Although Claudette didnât want to admit that she had lost to Mackenzie, she
had to accept the reality that was right in front of her.
It seemed that no matter how much she continued to strive, it might all be
pointless.
Should I give up?
Coincidentally, Frederick came down from the rooftop and saw Claudette. He
was thinking of greeting her, but when he saw her seemingly distraught
state, he decided against it.
âAh, what is love in this world? It drives people to live and die for it. Love is too
dangerous. Iâll remain single for a hundred yearsâ¦â
Frederick, seeing Emmanuel and Claudetteâs state today, seemed genuinely
afraid.
When he saw Claudette enter, her spirits seemed fine, but after meeting with
Emmanuel, it was as if she had fallen gravely ill!
One had to admit that the power of love was incredibly strong!
Claudette didnât even notice Frederick. In fact, she had forgotten the entire
process of leaving the hospital.
It wasnât until a Range Rover stopped in front of her that she snapped back to
reality.
âHehe, why do you look so absentâminded, the Lenoir familyâs princess?
Werenât you daydreaming and giggling last night?â Laura teased Claudette.
Claudette glanced at her without saying a word, remaining silent even after
getting into the Range Rover.
âWhatâs wrong? Does that dumb gynecologist not like you?â
Laura, who was widely known as a love expert with her vast romantic
experiences, could understand Claudetteâs predicament with just one look.
âLaura, I think I should give up. Thereâs no place for me in Dr. Loweâs heart!â
