"Take off your top!" "Uh? Do I have to take off my clothes? I mean... do I have to take off all my clothes?" "Take off your top!" "Can... I not take it off?" "No!" "That doesn't seem right, after all... there are differences between men and women."
"Take off your top!" "Uh? Do I have to take off my clothes? I mean... do I have to take off all my clothes?" "Take off your top!" "Can... I not take it off?" "No!" "That doesn't seem right, after all... there are differences between men and women."
"Take off your top!"
"What? Do I really have to take off my clothes? All of them?"
"Just the top!"
"Can't I... keep it on?"
"No, you can't!"
"This feels a bit awkward, given the circumstances."
I bit my lip, whispering as I tried to negotiate with the handsome doctor in front of me, hoping to avoid undressing.
The young, attractive doctor sat upright in his chair, hands clasped on the desk, just like a prince, exuding an air of old-world charm and aloofness.
It was just the two of us in the room, and his expressionless gaze made me feel uneasy.
"Miss, this is the breast surgery department. I need to perform an ultrasound. I'm unable to identify the affected part of your body at a glance without an X-ray."
His voice was chillingly cold, freezing the room with his words.
Feeling wronged, I lowered my head. My eyes were slightly red as I grumbled internally about why such a gentleman had to speak so harshly.
Couldn't he be more considerate? It wasn't easy for anyone to undress in front of the opposite sex for the first time. Some mental preparation was necessary!
Besides, how often did you find a breast surgeon who was a man around my age? Even though doctors were supposed to be professional, it still felt awkward and embarrassing.
Seeing that I hadn't moved, the gentlemanly doctor turned to his computer and said. "You can come back tomorrow. A female doctor will be available to see you."
My internship company had recently taken on a big project, and as an intern, I was forced to work overtime every day. I hadn't had a good night's sleep in ages. And I didn't have the time to come to see the doctor one more time.
"I'm... really busy with work lately and don't have time to come again."
Nervously, I looked up, accidentally meeting the doctor's cold gaze, and quickly lowered my head like an ostrich.
When I registered earlier, I vaguely remembered his name was Ayden Clarke. A quick glance at his name badge confirmed it.
After a long internal struggle, I bit my lip and blushingly asked, "Dr. Clarke, should I undress here?"
Ayden nodded coolly.
"Could you please... turn around until I'm done?"
My voice trailed off to a whisper, barely audible even to myself.
Dr. Clarke glanced at me without much expression and turned away.
Even though I knew this icy doctor wasn't the type to peek, I couldn't help but repeatedly check to ensure he wouldn't suddenly turn around.
The room was so quiet that the only sound was the rustling of my clothes. As I pulled off my sweater, the sudden chill made me shiver, and goosebumps quickly formed on my skin.
When my hands reached the clasp of my bra, they were trembling so much that I couldn't undo it for a while, breaking out in a cold sweat from the anxiety.
My mind was racing. Oh, this was so embarrassing! Jenna, if you couldn't undo your bra and had to ask Ayden for help, how would you ever leave this hospital with your dignity intact?
Perhaps my humble prayers were heard, as the clasp finally came undone with a click.
I wiped my sweaty palms on my pants, glancing at Ayden's turned back. Despite him facing away, the difference in our physiques still made me feel pressured.
Hugging my chest in embarrassment, I slowly lay down on the examination bed, resignedly closing my eyes and shakily saying, "I'm... ready!"
"Stella once savored Marc's devotion, yet his covert cruelty cut deep. She torched their wedding portrait at his feet while he sent flirty messages to his mistress. With her chest tight and eyes blazing, Stella delivered a sharp slap. Then she deleted her identity, signed onto a classified research mission, vanished without a trace, and left him a hidden bombshell. On launch day she vanished; that same dawn Marc's empire crumbled. All he unearthed was her death certificate, and he shattered. When they met again, a gala spotlighted Stella beside a tycoon. Marc begged. With a smirk, she said, ""Out of your league, darling."
Rena got into an entanglement with a big shot when she was drunk one night. She needed Waylen's help while he was drawn to her youthful beauty. As such, what was supposed to be a one-night stand progressed into something serious. All was well until Rena discovered that Waylen's heart belonged to another woman. When his first love returned, he stopped coming home, leaving Rena all alone for many nights. She put up with it until she received a check and farewell note one day. Contrary to how Waylen expected her to react, Rena had a smile on her face as she bid him farewell. "It was fun while it lasted, Waylen. May our paths never cross. Have a nice life." But as fate would have it, their paths crossed again. This time, Rena had another man by her side. Waylen's eyes burned with jealousy. He spat, "How the hell did you move on? I thought you loved only me!" "Keyword, loved!" Rena flipped her hair back and retorted, "There are plenty of fish in the sea, Waylen. Besides, you were the one who asked for a breakup. Now, if you want to date me, you have to wait in line." The next day, Rena received a credit alert of billions and a diamond ring. Waylen appeared again, got down on one knee, and uttered, "May I cut in line, Rena? I still want you."
Katherine spent five years at Vincent's side-model secretary by day, compliant lover by night. When she heard of his arranged marriage, she stifled her pain and planned a quiet exit. That resolve cracked the moment she met his fiancée, daughter of the woman who'd wrecked her own family. Rage replaced obedience; Katherine resolved to claim Vincent. Yet he kept tossing her loyalty tips like she was only a plaything. Heart stung, she walked away with her last scrap of pride. Four years later they crossed paths again, a child gripping her hand. "I don't care who's the father," Vincent pleaded. "Come back, please!"
Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
