The Enchanting Doctor With a Bite novel Chapter 57

The tension between Kylie and Samuel was thick and suffocating. She didn't want to be locked in a standoff with him here. Biting her lips, she said gently with a pale face, "I'll get changed and come down for the meal. Alright?"

"There's no need for that. It won't make a difference." Then, he added, "You'll still be as ugly as ever."

Kylie was at a loss for words. Samuel was so domineering that it was actually frightening. He also had a sharp tongue.

What a real piece of work. She wondered if she had crossed him somehow. His emotional state was as unpredictable as the weather.

Kylie was suffering from physical discomfort. What was more, Samuel had just ridiculed her. It made her feel intensely irritated.

Her chest rose and fell rapidly. She tried taking deep breaths, but it did nothing to curb her wrath.

"All I did is chat with a fellow medical practitioner at the medicine conference. I didn't humiliate you, and I didn't do anything that brought shame to the Vance family. If you dislike me this much, then run along and have a meal with Iris. Why insist on making my life difficult instead?"

Kylie didn't give a damn about the grim look on Samuel's face. At the next moment, she turned around and basically fled to her room. She pulled out a bag of tampons from her luggage and went to the restroom.

Actually, it wasn't a stomachache. The pain had always been excruciating whenever she had her period. She tried regulating her body with traditional medicines for the past years. Alas, it was useless.

Kylie felt too embarrassed to tell Samuel that it was her period. In any case, it wasn't as if he actually cared about her well-being.

Back in the living room, Samuel's eyebrows knitted tightly. He didn't turn his gaze away until after a brief moment.

The maid, Linda Lowe, spoke up, "Mr. Vance, I don't think Ms. Clark has a stomachache. It's probably period pain instead."

"Huh?" Samuel's frown deepened.
