Chapter 102
Tyler leaned back leisurely in the bathtub, which was clearly too short for his height of almost six feet three.
โI remember you wanted to pay me for a one-night stand. Now, itโs my turn.โ
In her panic, Rachel turned to switch the lights on before turning back to look at Tyler, her guard up. โWhat do you mean by that? Are you going to pay me for a one-night stand?โ
Tylerโs eyes narrowed, an unfathomable look in his eyes that made him look wilder and more sensual than usual. โYouโre the cause of all this mess. Shouldnโt you be held accountable for it? And you still want me to pay you?"
Rachelโs eyes widened. โAre you asking me to sleep with you for nothing in return? Thatโs too much!โ
She had seen her fair share of stingy people, but she had never seen someone as shameless as Tyler, who refused to pay even a single cent.
Tyler rubbed the bridge of his nose, chuckling at Rachelโs words. โWhy donโt you name a price, then? 150 thousand dollars? 300 thousand dollars?โ
That was when Rachel realized that Tyler had been fooling her. Blushing in embarrassment, she muttered, โI donโt mean that I want your money.โ
โWell, what are you arguing about if you donโt want money?โ Tyler asked, shrugging.
โโฆโ At that moment, Rachel seemed to be the one who was drugged instead of Tyler, getting confused and being sent into a daze with just a few words from him.
Tyler suddenly grunted in pain, his brows furrowing.
Rachel saw his lips pursing into a thin line and the veins on his arms popping out, as if he was bearing immense pain.
She suddenly remembered the doctor who attended to her the last time.
โTyler, werenโt you the one who called for a doctor for me before? Whatโs his number? Iโll call him right away.โ
She found the doctor highly skilled. She was in such torment, as though countless ants were crawling over her body. Yet, the moment the doctor gave her a pill, she felt the pain slowly being alleviated.
She had thought she needed to go through tremendous torture or have her stomach pumped to alleviate the drug effects.
โMy phoneโฆin my suit pocket.โ
โOkay.โ
Rachel hurriedly stood up and approached the bed, not bothered by the fact that she was dripping wet.
She found Tylerโs phone, which was thankfully unlocked, and searched for the doctorโs number. Tylerโs contacts were saved in a very straightforward and simple manner. The doctorโs number was simply saved under the title โDoctor,โ and she even found a contact saved under the title โLawyer,โ with no names indicated.
After the call went through, she heaved a sigh of relief when the doctor answered very quickly.
โItโs in the middle of the night, for goodnessโ sake. I need rest too, you know?โ
โHello, doctor. I am Mr. Huntโs friend. Heโs been drugged, could I please trouble you to come down to Regal Vale Hotel?โ
Rachelโs hand was shaking as she gripped the phone tightly. She was completely drenched and was shivering from the cold in the hotel room.
โAre you Ms. Lloyd, whom I saw before?โ
Rachel was surprised to hear that he actually remembered her. โYes.โ
โDid you just say that Mr. Hunt was drugged?โ
โYes, but itโs not appropriate to send him to the hospital right now. There might be paparazzi around, so I have to trouble you to come to him here.โ
Xavier Jenkins arched an eyebrow.
How could Tyler get himself drugged? His mother was proficient in pharmacology, and he himself learned alongside her for a while.
Even Xavierโs teacher praised Tyler for having great potential in the medical field despite his young age. How could he possibly allow someone to drug him?
But now wasnโt the time to question whether someone had drugged him, because he had clearly fallen prey.
โMs. Lloyd, Iโm overseas right now. I canโt come. From the looks of it, does Mr. Huntโs condition look less severe than yours before?โ Xavier said.
