Chapter 40 Can't You Hold It Back?
Bethany felt like she was about to break, and the strength of her arms was not strong enough. She
barely supported herself with her bent arms.
But unfortunately, she touched the needle in his body, and blood instantly flowed out of the hole.
Bethany immediately asked him to sit down, and half knelt on the ground to treat his wound.
She scolded angrily, "Why can't you take a joke? How can you move now? You're bleeding. Wrong
points could kill you. Don't you know?"
Bethany was really angry. Although she was very careful treating his wound, she scolded furiously.
Raymond lowered his eyes and looked at her anxious, angry, and nervous face. Thinking of the scene
just now, he couldn't help but smile slightly.
As Bethany handled his wound seriously, Raymond just watched her. No one noticed that they were
being secretly photographed.
After treating his wound, Bethany let out a long breath and said, "Fortunately, it's not serious. How do
you feel now? Does it hurt?"
Bethany raised her head. When their eyes met, she hurriedly lowered her head. She wanted to stand
up but found that her waist was painful.
Raymond kindly helped her up this time and asked, "Did you hit seriously?"
"Thanks to you, I won't be paralyzed yet," Bethany slowly bent down to pick up her phone from the
ground. The phone was not broken despite the broken screen.
"Your phone is broken. I'll compensate you."
"No need." Bethany decided to repair it. "I take the blame for myself. I shouldn't have offended you. A
rigid and serious person like you can't even take a joke!"
Raymond snorted and remained silent.
"Although you are hypocritical and scheming, you are considered a competent doctor," said Raymond.
From Zander's surgery and what happened just now, Raymond could see that she was very
responsible.
"Thank you," Bethany replied in an angry tone.
The needles should be left in the body for about 20 minutes. Alone with him, Bethany thought a second
felt like a year.
Finally, the time was over. Bethany carefully pulled out the needles.
"I have written down the precautions in the conditioning plan. You can read them."
"I want acupuncture twice a week. Whether you are busy or not, be here at six o'clock. I will punish you
if you are late. Hear that?" Raymond ordered.
"I know." She couldn't resist her creditor.
Bethany didn't want to stay here for another minute, so she turned around and walked out. She saw
Nolan outside the room.
Bethany was stunned and thought, "Has he been waiting outside?"
"Are you Dr. Caldwell?" Nolan introduced himself generously when he saw her. "I am Nolan, a friend of
Raymond."
"Nolan?"
Bethany thought, "That night at the hotel, Raymond made a phone call and asked someone to take
Aria Shepard away. The one should be Nolan. Is he Aria Shepard's brother?"
"Hello, Mr. Shepard," Bethany greeted him and then turned to leave.
When Nolan entered the lounge, Raymond had just put on his shirt. Nolan joked, "Can't you hold it
back in the company?"
"Put away your dirty thoughts!" Raymond explained, "She is now my personal doctor for my insomnia."
"Your personal doctor?" Nolan couldn't help but chuckled, "Your mistress? What is her background?
How did she take down you and your son in a short time?"
"She doesn't have a good background," Raymond said casually as he tidied up his clothes. "She grew
up with her parents dead and her husband passed away during her pregnancy. Now she's a doctor and
a single mother with two children."
"Her parents died, and her husband passed away!" Nolan was really scared. "What an unlucky life she
has. Raymond, even if you hate my sister, you can't be so needy. She caused the deaths of her parents
and her husband. You're in poor health. Are you not afraid of being harmed by her?"
Before Raymond could respond, the door was pushed open again, and the person was Bethany.
"Sorry, I forgot my bag." Bethany came in and picked up her bag, then quickly walked out.
After Bethany walked out, Nolan was still stunned and asked, "Do you think she heard what I just
said?"
"What do you think?"
Nolan did not know what to say.
"What are you come to me for?" Raymond asked coldly.
"I'm here for business, "Nolan looked at the clock and said, "It's time for dinner. Let's talk and eat."
In a luxurious hotel room, Raymond and Nolan sat opposite each other. Raymond spoke up, "If you
have anything to say, hurry up."
"I have two things. The first one is to tell you that Damion no longer stays in the school and lives with
me every day."
Raymond was startled and said, "Damion is no longer staying on the school!
He thought, "How could it be? Even if Damion doesn't live on the school, he should have asked me to
pick him up. How can he live with Nolan every day?"
"Although it's unbelievable, it's a fact. I can ask him to call you this night."
Raymond didn't believe it. But given that Nolan was Damion's psychologist and his uncle, Raymond
was reassured that Damion lived with him.
"What is the second thing?"
"The second thing is business," asked Nolan. "I heard a rumor that you plan to build a huge
entertainment park in Parkville."
"You are well informed."
"Is that true?" Nolan didn't expect the rumor to be true.
"That's right," said Raymond, "What's up? Do you have any objections, Mr. Shepard? Your family runs
an entertainment agency, and I want to run an entertainment park. It doesn't conflict with your family's
business, does it?"
"That has nothing to do with me, "said Nolan disdainfully, "I don't care about the business of the
Shepard family. I'm talking about this because I'm worried about you. On the one hand, you're not in
good health. Zavala Group is developing so well and wants to explore a new field, which will exhaust
you. On the other hand, it's the most important. I'm afraid that you would be in the limelight. It doesn't
matter that we'll have another competitor. The problem is those people. You know what I mean." All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Raymond certainly understood the meaning of Nolan, and those people were extremely terrifying.
