Clearing his throat, Kyle looked down and replied, “Mr. Dixon is occupied with
other matters. He sent me to check on Miss Murray.”
Lauren, previously lying in repose, abruptly sat up, her voice edged.
“What did you just say?”
Kyle repeated himself, adding, “Mr. Dixon instructed me to find the finest doctor
for you.”
Lauren felt as if she'd been struck by lightning.
She was stunned. After tumbling down the stairs, she hadn't anticipated Mitchel
would only dispatch an assistant to visit her.
Grabbing the bowl from the bedside, she hurled it at Kyle, shouting, “You're
utterly worthless! Why can't you bring Mitchel here?”
Kyle dodged the flying bowl and stated, “I can’t change Mr. Dixon’s mind.”
Jocelyn stepped in to smooth things over.
“Kyle, don't take it personally. Lauren is just upset.”
Lauren snapped, “Jocelyn, don’t bother. He's useless and incompetent.
He can't do anything well.”
Kyle, now furious, retorted, “Fine, if I'm so useless, why not turn to Matteo? He's
more trusted by Mr. Dixon than I am.”
“You! What are you implying?” Lauren was practically choking on her rage.

She'd reached out to Matteo before, but he'd brushed her off and kept his
distance.
She couldn't do anything about it.
Shifting her tone, Lauren instructed, “Jocelyn, leave us alone.”
Getting the hint, Jocelyn exited to stand guard at the door again.
Lauren beckoned.
“Come closer.”
Kyle hesitated and stood still, filled with regret.
Last time, he'd drunk too much and ended up sleeping with Lauren.
Following that, Lauren began pressing him for Mitchel’s schedule. She warned
that she'd evidence of their affair and would sue him for raping her if he didn't
comply.
Kyle snorted in his heart at this. Lauren had a strong desire for sex, often making
passionate requests in bed. Each time, she climaxed multiple times before
allowing him to finish.
