The IVF Secret That Shook a Dynasty novel Chapter 590

The moment those words registered, Harvey's demeanor instantly shifted. "She's not interested in me? What exactly is wrong with me?"

"I couldn't tell you," Joseph replied coolly. "Maybe you're not handsome enough. Maybe you're not charming enough. Who knows..."

Vivica, who had been aimlessly scrolling on her phone, suddenly snapped her head around, staring at him in utter bewilderment.

He had called Harvey specifically to say that? What on earth was he playing at?

Joseph casually tossed out a few more deliberate jabs to rile up his best friend, then abruptly ended the call just as the light turned green.

Studying his sharp, handsome profile as he drove, Vivica frowned in confusion. "What was that about? Why did you go out of your way to call him and say that?"

Joseph let out a soft laugh, a deeply amused, almost wicked gleam in his eye. "Again, looking at it from a man's perspective... phrasing it exactly like that is guaranteed to trigger a certain someone's competitive streak."

Dr. Murphy was as brilliant as he was arrogant. He was practically worshipped by couples struggling with fertility, his office walls covered in banners praising him as a miracle worker.

It was a tremendous amount of glory for one man.

And over the years, he had completely ignored the endless stream of women throwing themselves at him.

But now, there was a woman who not only wasn't throwing herself at him, but actively rejected the idea of him.

With Harvey's fundamentally immature and impossibly stubborn personality, he was absolutely going to find an excuse to confront Quintina and demand to know exactly where he fell short.

No matter what her answer was, he would undoubtedly argue against it.

He would feel an overwhelming need to prove his own perfection.

And ultimately, just to salvage his own bruised ego and reclaim his pride, he would probably chase after Quintina with everything he had—just so he could win her over, prove how absolutely flawless he was, and force her to eat her words.

Watching her husband lay out this master plan, Vivica was both fascinated and appalled. "His competitive streak? You mean he's going to actively pursue Quintina just because she wasn't into him? Wait—is he going to chase her, win her over, and then dump her?"

Because how else would he secure that ultimate sense of triumphant conquest?
