Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Strange Illness

An ambiguous scene from last night in the hotel suddenly flashed through her mind.

They were just one step away.

Something might have happened between him and Dirk Carter.

All along, these photos were Bingham Fisher's means of blackmailing her.

Also afraid of these photos being seen by others, Delilah Goodman had been holding back for so many years.

Fortunately, now only Dirk had seen them, which wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

"Can you tell me how you got these photos?"

Delilah Goodman asked.

Dirk Carter chuckled and said, "It's not anyone else's fault, if you have to blame, blame Bingham Fisher for having Suspicion Syndrome."

"Suspicion Syndrome, what kind of illness is that? Is it serious?"

Delilah paused for a moment.

Dirk burst into laughter and said, "Director Goodman, what do you think Carson Crawford liked the most?"

"Married women?"

"This guy Bingham Fisher has the same problem; he could provoke anyone, yet he dared to mess with the infamous old scar's mistress from Stillwater County. Isn't he courting death? All I did was get someone to catch them in the act, took pictures on the spot, and he had no choice but to hand over those photos. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to touch a woman in his lifetime."

Using the same trick against him.

Hearing this, Delilah Goodman felt a bitter satisfaction.

But how did Dirk Carter know so much?

Just as she was about to ask, the office door suddenly swung open with a bang.

The director's office.

Just barging in like that?

Just when Delilah frowned and was about to get angry, she saw who had come in and her anger disappeared immediately.

"No manners, don't you know to knock before coming in?"

Dirk turned around to look and found a stunning beauty standing there.

The woman looked about twenty-four or five, with long straight black hair, a pure appearance exuding a fairy-like aura, instantly reminiscent of a "fairy sister" from a Jin Yong novel.

In stark contrast to her looks.

Was the woman's attire.

On the upper body, she wore only a tube top, exposing her shoulders and navel.

The lower body was clad in an ultra-short skirt.

The long, slender legs were quite eye-catching, the kind you couldn't look away from with just one glance.

"What? Did I interrupt your fun?"

The woman chuckled mischievously, her eyes sweeping over Dirk Carter before quickly moving away.

"What nonsense are you spouting? This is Dirk Carter, my subordinate."

Delilah Goodman scolded in annoyance.

The woman paused.

She walked around Dirk Carter.

And said, "Pretty handsome, my cousin's type."

"You brat, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll rip your mouth apart."

Then she took a key from her pocket and tossed it over; the woman caught it mid-air.

"Dirk Carter, don't mind. This is my cousin, Maeve Winters, she's always so cheeky, just came to get the key."

"Who's cheeky now? I'm leaving, handsome. See you around."

After finishing.

Maeve pulled a face at Delilah Goodman and quickly ran off.

"Isn't my cousin adorable?"

After Maeve left, Delilah Goodman asked proudly.

Dirk Carter nodded.

Thinking a bit, he said, "She's very pretty, a real beauty, but unfortunately…"

Delilah Goodman paused.

And asked, "Unfortunately what?"

"Director Goodman, I'll be straightforward then. Your cousin's looks are naturally impeccable, and I'm sure she has many admirers, but she seems innately frigid in that area, that's a condition, it needs treatment!"

"How do you know?"

Delilah Goodman was taken aback.

She stood up directly.

She and Maeve grew up together, closer than sisters even though they were cousins.

Maeve indeed told her.

She had no interest in men.

For this reason.

Delilah even showed her some adult films and took her to a bar to meet male models, but she still showed no interest.

At 25, never having had a boyfriend, naturally, she was still a virgin.

Dirk Carter smiled mildly and said, "Director Goodman, don't forget, my parents are both renowned traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. I grew up learning diagnostics, although I'm not an expert, I know a thing or two."

Indeed.

George Carter's medical skills were top-notch in Ardmore City, many provincial and ministerial-level leaders came to him seeking treatment.

Growing up in such an environment, Dirk Carter was naturally not lacking.

"Is it treatable then?"

Delilah Goodman asked.

Dirk Carter paused and said, "The treatment isn't very hard, but the process might be hard for your cousin to accept. If she really wants to treat it, I can give it a try."

"That's great, I'll talk to her tonight."

Delilah Goodman said excitedly.

After work, Delilah Goodman pushed open the bedroom door.

Maeve was only in her underwear, fiddling with the computer.

Delilah Goodman said disdainfully, "Didn't I tell you? Wear pajamas at home."

"Why wear pajamas—there's no man here—unless you're jealous mine are bigger than yours?"

Maeve glanced at her chest and laughed sheepishly.

"You brat, what's the use of them being big if you don't dare to even touch a man, isn't that a waste?"

With those words.

The smile on Maeve's face instantly disappeared.

"Sis, why are you bringing up such sore topics? Besides, will I die without a man?"

"I've found a way to treat it, do you want to try?"

Delilah Goodman asked.

Maeve stopped what she was doing.

Her big eyes blinked and she asked, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, it's Dirk Carter, whom you saw in my office today. His parents are famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and he said it's simple to treat your condition."

Delilah Goodman said eagerly.

Maeve quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, I can't accept a man treating this condition."

"Didn't you say you wanted to know what that kind of pleasure feels like? I'm telling you, that pleasure is the best in the world. Once you experience it, you can't stop. Are you planning to be a spinster for life?"

Delilah Goodman's words finally made Maeve hesitate.

She pondered for a few minutes.

Finally nodded.

And said, "Alright, then arrange a time to talk about the treatment."

"No need to arrange, I've already brought him here, he's in the living room right now."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Maeve grabbed the clothes on the bed to put on, but Delilah Goodman stopped her and said, "No need to put on clothes, Dirk Carter said the treatment process doesn't require clothes."

"Huh? Naked? Then won't he see everything?"

Maeve shivered.

Delilah Goodman blushed slightly and whispered, "He's already seen everything of mine, what are you still afraid of?"

After she said this,

She explained the origin of the photos in detail.

After listening, Maeve rolled her eyes at Delilah Goodman and said, "How can you drag your sister into this? You're simply inhumane!"

After saying that, she opened the bedroom door boldly.

Dirk Carter, feeling a bit uneasy sitting on the sofa, was thinking about how to persuade Maeve when she came out.

Dirk Carter glanced at her only once and his eyes went wide.
