Chapter: 84

However, he paused when he was writing the number and crossed it out.

It was an unnecessary detail.

Smiling, the doctor said, "This is an unexpected development. She might be the key to your recovery. If you continue seeing her, more sexual encounters could lead to an improvement."

Caden's expression grew more intense.

“I only respond to her. Can my condition ever be cured?"

The doctor gave him a curious look. “Why would you want to cure it?"

A sharp glint appeared in Caden's eyes.

If his unusual condition remained incurable, it would not be a problem. He had never enjoyed the pleasures of sex before and didn't think much about it.

However, now that he experienced it, especially with Alicia, it didn't feel like a positive thing.

The doctor sensed Caden's worry. It seemed that his relationship with the woman might not be ideal.

He replied carefully, "In that case, Mr. Ward, you may need to wait a little longer while we continue our study."

Caden gave him a perfunctory response.

The doctor recalled something important and added, "One thing to remember, Mr. Ward. Now that your desires have been awakened, you should never contain yourself."

Caden furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "What do you mean?"

"You must either remain celibate or fully engage. This condition impacts your hormonal balance. Suppressing your urges too much could lead to complications. And if you lose control, it could cause significant pain for your partner."

Caden fell silent.

He stood up and replied indifferently, “That won't happen."

He wasn't an animal. He wouldn't lose control to the extent of ignoring the other person's feelings in bed.

After Caden left the office, Hank, who had waited for a long time, quickly asked, "How did it go, Mr. Ward?"

Caden's expression remained blank. "It was a wasted trip."

The doctor told him to wait.

He'd already waited so many years, and now, he was being made to wait again.

Those were empty platitudes. He could glean from that conversation that his chances of being cured were slim.

As they approached the elevator, Hank leaned closer and whispered, “Mr. Ward, perhaps this is fate. Miss Bennett is divorced from Mr. Joshua Yates. You are both single now. Why not explore this opportunity?"

Caden shot him a cold glance. "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Hank anticipated Caden's denial and touched his nose in embarrassment.

"You spent hours seeing her home. Your eyes were red when you returned. Who would believe that you two didn't sleep together last night?"

At that moment, the elevator doors slid open.

Upon looking up, Caden saw Alicia there.

Alicia was surprised to see him.
