NovelEnglishChapter 64: As tpassed, Marissa felt increasingly restless. All she wanted now was a good night's sleep; nothing else seemed appealing, nor could any moral considerations hold her back. She wanted to embrace Connor, her natural source of peace, but as Marissa, she couldn't. So she contemplated using another identity, someone who could naturally hold him without any sense of embarrassment or complication After sthought, she texted Ferris, saying, "You mentioned before that if I could cure Connor's brother's legs, Connor would even consider marrying me, right?" Ferris responded, "Yes, I did say that. Why do you ask now?" Marissa said, “Then, please send a message to Connor for me...” After visiting Arabella, Connor descended the stairs. Domenic quickly approached him, saying, "Mr. Daniels, Dr. Riss has sent a new message." Connor paused and asked, "What is it?" Domenic was visibly flustered. Whenever Dr. Riss' ncup, he broke out in a sweat. "Dr. Riss claims she can treat Glenn's legs, but... she needs to use your body for stime." Connor's brow creased in confusion. "What does that mean?" As Domenic wiped his brow and felt his pulse race, he managed to say, "She intends to spend the night with you. Dr. Riss added that she plans to sleep with you tonight. She's expecting your response and is quite urgent about it." The silence that filled the room after Domenic stopped talking was profound. Who would have imagined that the renowned Dr. Riss would make such a direct proposition to Connor? Connor's lips were pressed together, and he remained silent for a long tSuddenly, Terry burst into laughter and exclaimed, “I saw it coming. Why else would Dr. Riss keep provoking Mr. Daniels? She was obviously playing hard to get, aiming to win Mr. Daniels' heart. It appears my suspicions were correct. She really wants to sleep with Mr. Daniels." After laughing, he looked at Connor and added, "Mr. Daniels, you should go ahead. If things work out with you and Dr. Riss, that village girl won't stand a chance." "Shut up," Marc replied swiftly, kicking Terry. "Who knows how many men Dr. Riss has used this tactic on? It's likely she's done this more than once with different men. She could be quite promiscuous. Mr. Daniels might just be another one on her list. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for him if he actually went to sleep with her?" "You're right." Terry rubbed the back of his head and then turned to Connor. "I apologize, Mr. Daniels. I didn't think things through earlier. I just wanted that village girl to back off." Connor, unaffected by his naive bodyguards, cast his gaze downward and pondered for a moment. Then he instructed Domenic, "Book a room." The three simple words shocked Domenic. "Mr. Daniels, if you need Riss to fix Glenn's legs, we have other ways to persuade her. You don't need to degrade yourself by sleeping with her. Marc's right. She is likely quite promiscuous. It would be degrading for you to sleep with her." With a stoic demeanor, Connor faced Domenic and questioned, "Do I need your advice on how to handle my affairs?" Domenic shivered in fear. "I'll book the room immediately!"
Meanwhile, after texting Ferris, Marissa waited anxiously on the grass for a response. She wasn't very hopeful. How could Connor, known for his coat demeanor, so readily agree to such a proposal? She was overwhelmed and irrational when she made that rash statement. Surely, Connor would refuse and be even more furious. He might even be more eager to find her so he could lash out at her to release his anger
When Marissa was still engrossed in her thoughts, Ferris replied, Connor has agreed. The hote m has already been booked. He also sent the hotel address and room number."
Marissa was astounded. Connor had actually agreed. He must really care about his brother to sacrifice his dignity like this. Still reeling from the shock, she saw Connor exit the building. Was he heading to the hotel? She couldn't just stay there.
She had to get ready for their meeting immediately! With that thought, she sprang up and dashed out of the Daniels Manor like a startled rabbit
