Tiana Thorne clearly felt her heartbeat accelerating.
He was too imposing, and the look in his eyes was too deep.
For a moment, it made her memory more vivid, more certain, that this man was a big shot.
Because generally, men with such an aura are very wealthy.
In her mind, wealth equates to being a big shot.
Aiden Shaw moved his lips, his voice low and cool: "Miss Thorne is right."
Tiana directly reached out, grabbing his tie. Using just a bit of strength, she stood up and jumped off the bed, her pretty feet landing on his leather shoes.
Facing his clear and deep eyes, her red lips curved slightly, pulling the tie closer to him, she lazily smiled: "So, are you satisfied with this face of mine?"
As she spoke, she leaned even closer. She could feel his heartbeat, each beat steady, not disturbed at all, seemingly unaffected.
Aiden silently took in her lazy and alluring demeanor, only a hint of appraisal in his eyes, as if truly inspecting the face she spoke of.
At the corner of his lips, there was a faint smile, yet upon closer look, it had a hint of cold danger, his eyes distant: "Rumors about me are not untrue."
He spoke casually, but Tiana was taken aback.
The wealthy man wasn't taking the bait~
His demeanor made it really hard for her to tell whether it was real or not.
Tiana's pretty index finger traced the first button on his white shirt.
The indifference between Aiden's long brows gave an unfathomable feeling; he did not stop her hand, squinting slightly, showing a bored interest.
Tiana's index and middle fingers gently tapped one above the other, her voice tinged with an inexplicable lazy charm: "The rumors aren't false, but I am a doctor."
His eyes deepened: "Oh really?"
Tiana's red lips curved: "Especially in dealing with complex ailments like you."
Aiden remained still, raising an eyebrow: "How would you treat me?"
Tiana's small, pretty lips curled into a seductive smile: "I need your cooperation."
"Oh?"
Aiden's voice was low, his eyes as clear as wine. The faint scent of musk and orchid reached her nose, causing her heartbeat to quicken inexplicably.
Damn, this man was even more alluring than she was; there was an inexplicable sense of being untouchable.
In that moment, she had an urge to tear apart his facade to see if it was genuine or not.
Tiana licked her lips, quickly reigning in her overwhelming impulse, yet she didn't step off him: "Of course, as long as you trust me as a doctor, it will surely be twice the result with half the effort."
She wasn't lying to him; she truly was a doctor.
Once, as a little fox, she was saved from hunters by her benefactor, who was a doctor.
After that, she followed him, watching him practice medicine and save people. Until he passed away, she inherited his skills, and upon transforming into a human, her medical skills became renowned throughout the land.
Aiden's voice interrupted her thoughts: "How does Miss Thorne plan to treat me?"
Tiana met his cool gaze. This man wasn't captivated by her at all. Instead, the look in his eyes became increasingly dangerous.
A mischievous glint appeared in her eyes, her lazy demeanor unwavering: "Lie down, let me examine you."
Aiden's eyes, deep and cold, held a hint of depth: "And if Miss Thorne fails?"
Tiana felt increasing danger...
Her fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, meeting his gaze: "Close your eyes, relax, leave the rest to me."
Her voice seemed to have a magical power, entering his ears.
Aiden's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, sensing the captivating fragrance she emitted. Curiosity piqued, he indeed wanted to see how she would treat him.
As she suggested, he closed his eyes.
