Became A Queen After divorce

Chapter 1285: Mr. Foley Never Praises Me



When it came to his son, Duke Austen stepped forward and whispered, “Miss Lawrence, please help save my son. If you succeed, I will repay you generously. Any cooperation or deal will be open for discussion.”

There was a clear hint in his words.

Cheyenne was visiting Zheemond for the first time and was unfamiliar with Duke Austen and his son’s illness. She assumed someone had specifically recommended her. Could it be Declan?

Setting aside her doubts, Cheyenne politely replied, “Duke Austen, I appreciate your politeness, but I don’t know what illness your son has, so I can’t proceed.”

Eddie, standing beside her, added, “Understanding the illness is the first step in treating it.”

“This…” Duke Austen hesitated. He quickly glanced around; with so many people present, he felt embarrassed to speak.

Seeing his reluctance, Cheyenne seemed to understand. “Let’s find a quieter place to talk.”

“Alright, Miss Lawrence, please follow me.”

Soon, on a less crowded balcony, Duke Austen, the Gilliam family father and daughter, Kelvin and Cheyenne, and Eddie gathered. The once spacious balcony became crowded.

After Duke Austen’s discreet explanation, Cheyenne finally understood that he wanted her to help with his son’s sexual dysfunction. No wonder Duke Austen was too embarrassed to mention it publicly; it concerned his son’s dignity. Moreover, Princess Sierra and her fiance were present. If they knew his son was impotent, it would be even more humiliating.

Before Cheyenne could speak, Mr. Foley firmly rejected the request. “No! Absolutely not! Lord Parker can go to a hospital for infertility treatment. Why involve my wife?”

Kelvin couldn’t tolerate the thought of Cheyenne examining another man’s private parts. Although doctors inevitably come into contact with patients’ bodies during surgery, it’s usually through clothing.

Cheyenne almost thought she misheard but quickly calmed down as a professional doctor and gave Kelvin a warning look. “Be quiet!”

Mr. Foley felt as if he were being scolded like a child and quietly said, “I respect your profession, but I’m concerned about your well-being.”

What if you hurt your eyes?

In fact, Cheyenne had no interest in examining men; she had seen countless anatomical models in the lab. Kelvin argued that models were fake while Lord Parker was a living person.

Taking a deep breath, Kelvin said, “Duke Austen, I’m sorry, but my wife cannot treat this condition. You should seek another specialist.”

Despite often criticizing his son for being unworthy, Duke Austen still cared deeply for him. The Gilliam family had given them hope, and he had waited eagerly for Cheyenne’s arrival. But at the crucial moment, she refused to help.

However, Duke Austen wasn’t ready to give up and tried to entice them with money. “If Miss Lawrence is willing to help, I can offer you a reward of two hundred million dollars.”

Cheyenne was tempted; her eyes lit up. She had never received such a high consultation fee before. With two hundred million dollars, she could buy many precious medicinal herbs she needed!

Seeing her reaction, Kelvin knew his wife was swayed by the money. “Cheyenne, have you forgotten? We’re still on our honeymoon. You promised not to discuss work during this time.”

“I put aside my company to accompany you to Taswya. Chris has dozens of billion-dollar deals waiting for me every day…”

He looked at her pitifully, his dark eyes reflecting her image like a forgotten wolfhound.

Cheyenne remembered the casual promise she made before their wedding and felt conflicted. Kelvin had indeed sacrificed a lot for her.

At this moment, the Gilliam family also spoke up. Pearl felt responsible for the situation and decided to say something.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Miss Lawrence, please make an exception.”

“It was my fault for hurting Lord Parker and causing my father so much trouble. If you can help, our Gilliam family will repay you regardless of the outcome.”

Pearl felt guilty after speaking. Miss Lawrence had already saved her once, and now she was asking for another favor without repaying the first one. Besides money, she didn’t know how else to repay her.

Just as Pearl worried that Cheyenne would refuse, Cheyenne agreed.

“Alright!”

“Cheyenne!”

“Kelvin, I’m a doctor! In my eyes, there are only patients; there’s no distinction between men and women. Do you understand?”

Cheyenne was genuinely angry. On one level, he didn’t respect her profession; on another, he didn’t trust her integrity!

Seeing this, Kelvin immediately lowered his head and apologized. “I’m sorry, honey. I was too narrow-minded. I won’t stop you from making any decisions in the future, but I still feel uncomfortable…”

His willingness to apologize showed he was still a good person. Cheyenne decided to forgive him this time.

“I understand. How about this… I’ll bring a trusted male doctor inside who can describe the symptoms to me while I instruct him on what to do.”

To accommodate her jealous husband, she reluctantly made things more complicated.

She thought about how Kelvin had dismissed his female secretary for her and only kept Chris; how he avoided female clients whenever possible or took Chris along if unavoidable.

Since Kelvin could avoid suspicion for her sake, she decided to accommodate him this once.

Sure enough, Mr. Foley was delighted and smiled sweetly, adding a touch of charm to his cold and handsome face.

“Great! Let’s do that. And we have the perfect candidate right here.”

“Mr. Zamora is a genius and a beloved young doctor among countless female patients. Cheyenne, why not choose him?”

Eddie sighed and said self-deprecatingly, “Mr. Foley never praises me; when he does, it’s never good news.”

Kelvin patted his shoulder without any embarrassment. “Mr. Zamora, don’t be modest. If you like it, I can praise you more often.”

“I’d rather not. I hope for a few more peaceful days.”

Eddie silently resolved to keep his distance from Kelvin in the future to avoid any unexpected trouble.
