His Forbidden Desire: From Secretary to Lover novel Chapter 6

Reinette felt like she had been slapped hard in the face, and her ears were ringing.

The doctor assumed she was scared and said coldly, "It's just a simple physical examination. Lie down, take off your pants, and I'll take a sample."

Reinette clutched her pants tightly and forced herself to stay calm, engaging in some positive self-talk to build herself up mentally.

Just think of it as a free check-up, it's okay.

With an expressionless face, she lay down, having already guessed Jadeon's intentions.

The doctor had the sample taken quickly with a cotton swab.

Reinette got up numbly, but found that her feet had gone numb within a minute and her legs were shaking.

It wasn't fear, it was anger.

"You can leave now. I'll give the results directly to Mr. Nassir," the doctor said.

Reinette didn't react and just adjusted her clothes, trying to leave as calmly as possible.

She sat in the corridor for a while, sorting out her thoughts.

Jadeon thought she had made love with Louis, so he had her checked to see if she got some dirty illness.

She took a deep breath and wanted to get angry, but her phone suddenly rang.

It was Jadeon calling.

Reinette wiped her face, restrained the tremble in her voice, and said, "President Lambert."

"Is the examination done?" the man's voice was cold and calm.

Reinette stared at her reflection on the opposite wall and said coldly, "I've resigned. You really don't need to pay for another examination for me."

Jadeon sneered, asking her in his usual tone, "Haven't checked your email yet?"

Reinette frowned, having a bad feeling. "I..."

The man interrupted her and said concisely, "Come at 8 o'clock. I'll be back."

Then, there was only the sound of beeping on the phone.

Reinette was too anxious to wait for a long time, so she checked her email on her phone.

The HR department sent a reply with just a screenshot of a contract clause.

Ten million dollars penalty for breach of contract during the five-year term of employment.

Reinette's eyes widened, and she felt like she had been put in an ice cave, shivering.
