Chapter 934 Elizabeth’s Admirer
“Five times is already enough,” Frank said, agreeing to Elizabeth’s conditions. He then looked up at the night sky and asked, “It’s
late. Shall I walk you home?”
“Do you know where my his?” Elizabeth smiled. At that point, she also suspected that Frank had no sense of direction. “I
saw you walk back and forth three times in this alley just now.”
Frank cleared his throat. He didn’t expect to be found out so soon. “Please keep it a secret between us. Can you tellwhere to
go? I’ll go back with you.”
Elizabeth burst into laughter upon hearing what he said. If she were to be honest, she thought that Frank was indeed a very
responsible doctor.
“I was a little conceited before, but you took the tto care foreven though you were busy. I’m sorry for saying such mean
things to you,” Elizabeth said.
Frank shook his head. “It’s no big deal. All you did was say sharsh words. Sof the patients I’ve handled have done
worse.”
He had seen a lot of strange patients in the past few years. Elizabeth was stubborn, but she wasn’t that bad for him.

Meanwhile, in the old residential building, Elizabeth’s aunt was waiting for her niece so they could have dinner together.
building.
“Auntie!” Elizabeth exclaimed as she quickly walked up to her aunt. “What are you doing here? It’s so cold outside. You should’ve
worn a coat!”
Her aunt dismissively waved her hand and said nothing. She then shifted her gaze to Frank, who was behind Elizabeth, and
glared at him.
She saw Frank walking with Elizabeth from a distance just now. They were talking and laughing, almost as if they were close
friends.
“Who is that man?” Elizabeth’s aunt asked. At that point, she was worried about Elizabeth’s relationship with men because of
what happened with Jorge. Admittedly, Elizabeth was good at everything, but she had bad taste in men.
Frank’s eyes widened for a moment upon noticing that Elizabeth’s aunt was hostile towards him.
He wanted to explain the situation, but Elizabeth quickly held his hand and winked at him.
Elizabeth however, didn’t want her aunt to know that she had a mental issue that could probably end her career as a designer.
Frank immediately understood what Elizabeth meant, so he put his arm around her shoulder and said, “It’s nice to meet you. My
nis Frank Watson and I’m currently courting Elizabeth. She hasn’t really agreed to be my girlfriend yet, though.”
“You’re not her boyfriend yet. Get your filthy hand away from her!” Elizabeth’s aunt muttered in dissatisfaction as she gave
Elizabeth a doubtful look. “Is that man really trying to court you?”
“Yes, Auntie,” Elizabeth lied, avoiding eye contact with her aunt as she did so. She tried to get out of this matter by rubbing her
hands together and saying, “It’s so cold outside. Why don’t we go hfirst?”
“No,” her aunt firmly stated. “You two have to make it clear totoday. I won’t take no for an answer.”
As soon as they got there, she asked, “How did you two know each other? Why do you like Elizabeth, Frank? Where do you
work? What do your parents do?” Elizabeth covered her face in embarrassment when her aunt began bombarding a series of
questions to Frank just to know more about him.
She and Frank didn’t even know each other that much. He had no reason to answer those questions.
Elizabeth eventually decided to tell the truth instead of dragging Frank into this mess.
However, just when she was about to confess, Frank held her hand on the table.
His tone was sincere as he said, “Jactually introduced us to each other. Her husband and I are good friends.
Maybe it’s fate. They noticed that I had been single for a long time, so that was probably why they wanted to matchwith
Elizabeth. She’s a bit cold at times, but she’s a kindhearted, careful, and persistent person.”
He glanced at Elizabeth for a moment before shifting his gaze back to her aunt. “I’m a doctor myself and I work in a private
hospital. My mother is a university professor, and my father is an archaeologist.”
He then spread his fingers and interlocked them with Elizabeth’s.
Elizabeth immediately tensed up when he did that.
As soon as her aunt heard that Jwas the one who introduced them to each other, she looked a little relieved. “I know Janet.
She’s a beautiful lady. She’s so sweet that she even introduced a man like you to Elizabeth.”
To her, Frank was much better than Jorge appearance wise, as well as in his way of speaking.
After drinking his coffee, Frank bid them goodbye. But before he left, he leaned into Elizabeth’s ear and whispered, “Don’t forget
our agreement.”
Elizabeth’s heart began pounding when Frank leaned in close to her ear. She instinctively looked sideways as she asked, “Are
you always this concerned about all of your patients?”
At that moment, Frank fixated his gaze on Elizabeth. His heart skipped a beat, and he felt an oddly warm feeling in his chest.
That was the first the had observed a woman at such close proximity outside of the hospital.
He couldn’t help but notice that Elizabeth was really pretty.
