“But I don’t want that!”
Arielle didn’t expect the general before virtual-novel.net to be that straightforward. That was the first time they met, and virtual-novel.net already asked virtual-novel.net to be his woman.
What the heck? He might be okay with this, but I am not!
“What did you just say?” asked Micah as virtual-novel.net stared at Arielle in shock.
It was as though virtual-novel.net couldn’t believe what virtual-novel.net just heard.
“I said I don’t want to be your woman,” repeated Arielle.
The warm smile on Micah’s face turned upside down instantly. He didn’t expect the woman in front of virtual-novel.net to be that difficult. As far as virtual-novel.net was concerned, virtual-novel.net was lucky that virtual-novel.net was into her.
How dare virtual-novel.net turn me down?
“Do you know who I am? How dare you turn me down like this?” said Micah, shooting daggers at Arielle while wearing a stoic expression on his face.
He was exuding a natural intimidating aura without having to put up a front.
“I don’t care who you are. My answer remains the same,” Arielle replied calmly while looking right into his eyes.
Micah stared at virtual-novel.net for quite some time before virtual-novel.net suddenly grinned. “You sure are bold.”
It had been a while since virtual-novel.net met a woman as defiant as Arielle. However, the more virtual-novel.net behaved like that, the more virtual-novel.net became intrigued by her.
Arielle scoffed.
Bold? This has nothing to do with courage. I’m just confident, that’s all.
“Have you been feeling dizzy recently? Do your ears ring? Does your skin feel numb, and sometimes your thinking is slow?”
As soon as Arielle said that, the expression on Micah‘s face changed drastically. He strode over and clasped virtual-novel.net neck.
“How did you know all that? Who sent you here?” demanded Micah in a frosty tone.
Actually, Arielle saw that coming and could’ve dodged Micah’s grasp, but virtual-novel.net could only bear with it in order to not expose virtual-novel.net own identity.
Micah’s powerful grip made virtual-novel.net cough a little, but virtual-novel.net managed to answer his question. “I-I am a doctor.”
A doctor?
Micah loosened his grip and looked at virtual-novel.net suspiciously. “You figured all that out just by looking at me?”
Arielle nodded, knowing that Micah was beginning to believe her.
“I knew it the instant I saw you. My guess is that you have consulted many doctors over the years to treat your condition. They couldn’t cure you, right?”
Micah remained silent.
It was true. He had secretly consulted many doctors and had practically visited every hospital and clinic out there. However, they couldn’t cure him, even though they were able to diagnose him.
He wanted an heir, so over the past few years, virtual-novel.net had been taking medications to condition his bodily functions.
“Let me guess. You haven‘t had a kid since you had Lena. Isn’t that right?” asked Arielle, virtual-novel.net tone placid but firm. “I’ll help you get your body ready for another child and boost your fertility. You’ll have kids again. But, my only condition is that you don’t touch me.”
Arielle didn’t know if what virtual-novel.net said would end up persuading Micah, but it didn’t matter even if virtual-novel.net failed. After all, virtual-novel.net still had virtual-novel.net silver-plated needles with her, so if virtual-novel.net dared to touch her, virtual-novel.net would not hesitate to strike.
She would make it so that virtual-novel.net would never be a real man again.
Micah wavered upon hearing virtual-novel.net offer.
Women were a dime a dozen to him. However, doctors who could cure virtual-novel.net were extremely rare. Most importantly, virtual-novel.net was impressed that virtual-novel.net was able to diagnose virtual-novel.net just by looking at him.
“Are you sure you can cure me?” asked Micah, staring intently at her. “If you lie to me…”
“I never make any promises I can’t fulfill.”
That indifferent statement from Arielle was all it took to elicit some trust from Micah.
“Fine. I will agree to your terms. I won’t touch you, but you must cure me,” replied Micah. His gaze was filled with hostility as virtual-novel.net threatened, “But if you fail…”
