Chapter 839

"Dr. Lane," I shot back, "are you slacking off lately? You're an OB-GYN, but you're throwing around lines like that? Who's really got the dirty mind here?"

Lena's laughter exploded through the phone. "Me? All I said was 'love paradise'! You're the one who made it sound X-rated. Don't blame me for where your mind went!"

I was speechless for a moment, then blurted out, "How are you? Are you hurt?"

This was what worried me most.

Even though Hayden had promised me Lena was fine, I needed to hear it from her directly.

"Didn't your Hayden already tell you? Or did you not even let him talk and just went straight for the jugular?" Lena teased, knowing me all too well.

When it came down to Hayden or my best friend, I was always picking her.

"I want to hear it from you," I said, noticing it wasn't a video call.

"Fine, I'll call you on video. I didn't start with that in case I interrupted something... intimate. You know, a live show," she said, her words dripping with innuendo.
