Doctor’s Attractive Love Bait By F BOY’s DOLL
Chapter 34

Chapter 34: Let Down 

Byron had no choice but to admit that he had started taking Candice seriously.

Although he didn’t have any deep feelings for her, he was. rather mesmerized and attracted to her.

“It’s time to get your dressing changed.”

He entered the bathroom sullenly and squatted outside the bathtub.

Candice sat up straight and asked, “Have you been drinking?”

There was a strong smell of alcohol in the air.

“Didn’t drink much.”

She twisted her fingers around his collar, which was covered with a red lipstick stain. It was obviously left by someone with large and thick lips.

Vicky also had such full lips and a cupid’s bow, which made her look incredibly hot.

She was obsessed with making herself look hot through cosmetic procedures and piercings.

She had all sorts of piercings, including navel rings and nose studs. She was one to feel uncomfortable walking down the street without a man gawking at her.

“Your taste is pretty constant.”

“Enos brought that woman there. I got that stain by accident.”

Candice remained silent.

Byron looked up to see that there were a few small freckles at the corners of her eyes, which were quite visible under the light. He had only noticed them today.

“Do you usually wear makeup?”

“I wear light makeup.”

She was bare-faced throughout her stay at the hospital but he didn’t pay much attention.

She was a flawed beauty.

Regardless, Candice embodied a strong feminine beauty.

To be precise, she was a mix between a girl and a woman.

“Percy is not a good man.”

For no apparent reason, he brought up Percy out of the blue.

Candice looked at him.

“I’m not trying to denigrate him. Percy is vicious and ruthless. You just don’t understand,” Byron said as he removed the gauze.

He had experienced it first-hand.

Despite looking civilized, Percy was actually the most vicious mastermind.

Fortunately, Byron was scheming and vicious enough to have avoided suffering too much damage.

“Is he your elder brother?”

“I refuse to acknowledge him.”

“I don’t understand your feud, but he has no ill intentions towards me,” Candice said while playing with the water.

With a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes, Byron said, “I thought so too.”

She stopped and asked, “You’re a doctor and he’s a businessman. Is there a conflict of interest?”

Without saying a word, he pulled his belt and turned around to go back to the guest room.

He suppressed his anger throughout the way.

It was mainly because he wasn’t in any position to interfere for now so he didn’t question her.

Candice may be soft-spoken but she was actually very stubborn and wouldn’t believe him unless she learned her lesson the hard way.

The impression Percy left on her was too positive.

However, Byron really didn’t think that Candice could win the heart of Percy, who hadn’t fallen in love with anyone for a long time.

Compared to him, Percy had a heart of steel.

It had been raining heavily and Candice’s chest was hurting so badly that she couldn’t sleep. When she rolled over in the

middle of the night, she was startled by a dark shadow standing in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, the bedroom lights were turned on.

Byron was leaning against the window sill in burgundy pajamas, looking indifferent and lonely.

“Why are you awake?”

He looked down and lit his cigarette before saying, “You’re not asleep either.”

The image of a man smoking at night was either corny or

s**y.

While Byron smokes, he has an aura of the depravity of an ascetic.

After taking a few puffs in a row, he said, “Let’s talk.”

“Yeah.”

He opened the window halfway, and he was extraordinarily stoic even as the storm raged.

“Should we get into a serious relationship?”

Chapter 34. Let Down

“No third party.”

“An exclusive relationship.”

The flame of the cigarette was distinguished by the wind as he said those three sentences one after another.

Candice really did not expect Byron to bring that up so solemnly.

“Do you really mean it?”

“Yes,” he answered after exhaling a puff of smoke.

“What about Vicky then?”

Byron gazed at her, his expression indifferent.

“You seem to be very bothered by her.”

“No woman minds the presence of an unforgettable ex.”

The other women he dated really didn’t mind.

Those who were lucky enough would get a sum of money and a property in exchange for backing off quietly without pestering him again in the future.

Candice didn’t care about money. All she cared about was the relationship itself and she was extremely loyal too.

Byron had never met a woman like her before.

Men would never be able to resist women that they hadn’t experienced before.

“You don’t have to be bothered by her. I know to differentiate between my ex and my current girlfriend,” he said, flicking his cigarette.

Candice really didn’t believe him.

Rufus may be smitten with Rita but he wasn’t as obsessed with her as Byron was with Vicky.

The possibility of their relationship actually working out was much slimmer than that of her being used as a sacrifice.

“My boyfriend must be my future husband.”

Byron suspected that Candice was deliberately making things hard for him.

She was being too definite.

In a relationship, it was impossible to promise that one

In their circle, relationships didn’t mean much and it was common to be a player.

Enos was completely unrestrained but he accepted his father’s rule for him to settle down, get married, and have children by the age of 35.

As for the partner he would marry, his family would be doing the selection for his behalf and he was not allowed to object. The entire process was as pragmatic as it could be.

“My situation is complicated. I can’t agree to marriage but I can give you an exclusive romantic relationship if you’re willing,” Byron said while smoking and pondering about something.

An exclusive romantic relationship.

“You’re not going to marry me?”

Byron remained silent.

It was too early to talk about marriage.

She wasn’t greedy but she was overly eager and thinking too

far ahead.

Candice suddenly felt that Byron did not understand her feelings at all.

When she loved a man, she would devote herself to him completely. However, he would only give his significant other crumbs.

He was casual and fickle-minded while she was the type to dwell too much on something and overthink.

“We’re not suitable for each other.”

“Why?”

“Do you promise not to let me down?”

“As much as I can.” Byron put out his cigarette.

“What’s good about me?”

“Everything.”

He couldn’t be specific.

“What’s good about her?”

This time, Byron hesitated for a moment.

Vicky was like Spanish, sophisticated, unconventional and attractive whereas Candice was like literature, conventional, tasteful and common.

The former is challenging and full of excitement while the latter is steady and predictable.

Byron was a wild man with a desire to conquer, which was why he fell for Vicky.

“She’s not as good as you.”

That’s true, honestly.

Candice was dead serious as she laid out the terms.

“If you let me down, I’ll either put up with it, or drag you down with me.”

He was stunned to hear how extreme she was.

Byron lit up another cigarette without saying a word the entire time.

After smoking, he closed the window and said, “Rest early.”

He eventually didn’t reply to her.

She wanted him to not let her down.

For men, keeping this promise was harder than winning the lottery.

In the morning, Rose picked up Percy from a business office on the outskirts of town and drove back to the city.

On the way, George called to tell him that there was a problem with his business and asked him to go back to L.A. to prepare 70 million dollars.

Percy did not want to return to LA for now because he needed to spend more time with Candice and boost the progress of their relationship.

After this burst of enthusiasm, they might easily go back to square one.

Besides, she wasn’t very enthusiastic towards him.

“Is it very urgent?”

“Do you have other matters to handle?” George asked.

“Yeah, it’s a personal matter.”

“Are you dating someone?”

Percy put his hand between his lips and was silent for a second before answering, “We’re getting to know each other better.”

George knew his eldest son well. Percy was extremely calm, serious, and completely capable of drawing a clear line between work and private matters.

Unless, of course, the woman was so well-liked by him that he was willing to be tied up.

“Is she in politics or business?”

He didn’t answer.

George didn’t rush him and instead, waited patiently.

After a long time, Percy finally said, “She’s just an ordinary woman.”

“Solve the issue with the funds first.”

After a moment of dead silence; George finally ended the

It was not that Percy hadn’t thought that Candice’s status would not make it into the Wilson Family.

As long as a woman was divorced, George would see it as a scandal, as would the upper class circle.

Rose looked at him through the rear-view mirror and asked, “Is Mr. Wilson displeased?”

Percy’s eyes went out of focus and he began spa cing out in

sorrow.

“Do we have to go to the airport right now?”

He glanced at his wristwatch and asked, “What time is the next movie screening?”

“Doors open at 11 sharp and the movie is expected to end at 1:05.”

“To the cinema.”

Rose was quite shocked that Percy didn’t give up under the heavy pressure.

She had heard that George had a rather outstanding

illegitimate son, who was fighting incessantly with Percy. Thus, Percy almost dared not take a misstep.

This time, he actually chose to make an unorthodox decision.

On the way to the movie theater, Percy contacted Candice, but she did not answer the phone nor reply to his text.

Even after the doors opened, he was still waiting on the steps.

He seemed to be determined about Candice yet also about an irreparable obsession.

Rose couldn’t understand what Percy liked about Candice.

No one could be more competent and thoughtful than Nicole.

However, his heart, which had been dormant for a long time, actually moved for that woman.

Rose got out of the car a total of three times to urge Percy to leave.

When he arrived at the airport, he called again, but

“Could it be that her condition has worsened?” he suddenly asked Rose.

After asking that question, he dismissed that thought.

There was a time when George had a car accident, and it was Samson who was in charge of the operation. He managed to revive him and save him from a close sh ave with death. Thus, Samson was undoubtedly a top doctor in thoracic surgery and orthopedics.

“Let’s go to Shelton Building.”

Rose was dumbfounded for a while. “We’re running late for the flight.”

“I’ll drive.”

Knowing full well what kind of temper he had, Rose didn’t say any more.

With 54 minutes left before boarding, Percy’s car was parked under the Shelton Building.

Monica was called downstairs by the security guard and was surprised at the sight of him.

“Mr. Percy, are you looking for me?” she asked.

He lowered the car window and asked, “Where’s Candice?”

“She’s not at work, Patrick seems to be in the process of firing her.”

Last night, she told him that she was staying at a friend’s house.

The only friend of hers whom he knew, was Monica.

“She’s not staying at yours?” Percy asked with a frown.

“Doctor Byron picked her up the day she was discharged from the hospital, so she should be staying at his place so she can change her medication easily.”

Percy gripped the steering wheel, clutching it tighter and tighter.

After a long while, he said, “Thank you.”

Then, he left immediately.

Monica suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing.

She recalled that Percy was in an ambiguous relationship with Candice too.

She was filled with regret, thinking she would definitely get karma for ruining Candice’s marriage.

On the other hand, Candice woke up in the evening.

As if she had a premonition, the first thing she did when she woke up was to check her phone.

The phone was off.

It was clearly fully charged.

Soon after she turned it on, she received two texts from Percy.

One was to inform her that the movie had been rescheduled for 11:00 while the other was sent twenty minutes later, asking where she was.

She was instantly awake.

She immediately called Percy, but Rose answered, “Mr. Percy is back in L.A. for work.”

Candice subconsciously looked at the screen and asked, “Did

“This is his business number.”

“What time did he get back?”

“He took the 3AM flight. Mr. Percy waited for you at the movie theater for an hour.”

Candice squeezed the sheets tightly and said, “It slipped my mind.”

Rose was silent for a moment and she reckoned that it probably wasn’t the right time for her and Percy.

Rather, they were not meant to be.

Fate is very important when it comes to relationships.

“Miss Rose, what is Percy’s personal number…”

“Mr. Percy didn’t give me the permission to disclose it, so please pardon me for that.”

Candice hung up after thanking her.

Since Percy was a busy businessman, she decided not to bother him.

Besides, if he intended to contact her, he wouldn’t have gone through Rose and have her be the messenger. He was obviously using her to prevent Candice from contacting him.

She reckoned that he was upset with her for bailing on him.

Men like him were very well-mannered. After all, he had a noble identity and probably couldn’t tolerate unruly women.

Candice walked out of the room to see that Byron had left some food for her in the living room. There was some chicken soup and mashed potatoes.

They were pretty light.

She gave it a whiff and realized that the food smelled rather appetizing.

Byron seemed to be good at everything.

Just like a cloud, he was full of surprises.

Apart from his stubborn nature, he was great in all other aspects.

To him, women were either after marriage, like Candice, or after money, like Vicky.

Byron was on duty that night. There wasn’t actually a need for shift duty in the urology department and there was usually just a consultation slot in the afternoon However, there were too many impromptu surgeries lately so he was temporarily transferred to the emergency room.

The next morning, Candice returned the favor and brought him breakfast at the hospital.

Her appearance was clearly unexpected by Byron.

“Why are you out?”

Holding the breakfast in hand, she asked, “Aren’t your hungry?”

She couldn’t guess what he was thinking at all.

“Breakfast is provided here,” Byron said in a mellow voice.

However, there was only a pile of medical records and registration slips on his desk.

“You must have eaten really quickly then.”

“I’m a man. I don’t need you to be going to all this trouble for me.”

Harry clucked his tongue at the side and remarked, “You’re being so pretentious.”

Candice rubbed her hands together and said, “It’s a little cold now that it’s raining.”

“It’s fall.”

“I thought it was going to be a warm fall.”

“Are you cold then?”

“Yes,” Candice answered, nodding truthfully.

Byron took off his shirt and put it on her before proceeding

to put on his work attire, half naked.

His strong collarbones and firm muscles could be seen. vaguely under his white coat.

He looked incredibly s**y in his uniform.

Byron had a hot figure and a domineering aura, regardless of whether he had the habit of going to the gym or not.

Men with excellent temperament were more attractive than men with good looks.

“It’s too big for me. Do I look bad?” she asked, stretching the hem of the shirt to cover her hips.

He laughed and said, “No one’s gonna look at you.”

After coming out of the office, Candice quickly rushed into the elevator without stopping for a moment.

She was afraid that she might affect him badly if she were to wear his clothes.

After all, they were not officially dating yet.

A situationship would best describe the state they were in

now.

It was ambiguous, undefined, non-restraining, passionate, and free.

They could be as intimate as ever but once either party catches real feelings, someone would be bound to get hurt.

Her sixth sense told her that Byron could not settle down with one woman.

Birds of a feather flock together. She had seen Enos with four different women throughout the five occasions that she had met him.

While Candice was deep in thought, the nurse called out, “Professor Wilson, would you like to come in?”

She looked up immediately and saw Byron nodding slightly before going straight to Candice who was standing behind. the crowd.

“Come here.”

“Did I leave something behind?”

“You left me behind,” he said coldly and seriously.

The nurses and family members in the front row turned their heads.

“What’s the matter?” Candice asked as she wriggled out.

Byron handed her something.

It was the key to the door of his apartment, which she had

Candice returned to the elevator while he stood still outside.

“I’ll be getting off work at 6:30.”

Hanging her head low, she avoided the inquisitive gazes that were being darted at her.

“What do you want to eat?”

“Anything…”

“Was the soup good?”

“Yeah.”

Byron’s hands were in the pockets of his coat and he looked clean and stunning.

The elevator door closed, isolating him from her. Candice heaved a sigh of relief.

She somehow felt like they were lovers.
