CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1668

Nonetheless, he claimed she was being indifferent after hearing her answer.

As such, Joyce was in a dilemma. It did not sound right to say she was worried about him, and it would be worse if she claimed she was not worried about him. She was at a loss.

Stanley sighed inwardly when he noticed Joyce's eyes were red-rimmed as if she was about to burst into tears from anxiety. Despite that, he remained calm on the outside.

“All right. I was just joking,” he said flatly, massaging the space between his brows.

That was the only way to calm her jittery nerves.

Indeed, upon learning that it was a joke, Joyce was first taken aback but soon heaved a huge sigh of relief and grinned. “Mr. Quinn, I'll get a doctor to check on you.”


No matter how I see it, he looks really unwell. Although he claims to be fine, his behavior says otherwise. He has massaged the space between his brows and his temples several times within a mere few minutes, which indicates that he's experiencing a headache. The head is the most mysterious and important part of the human body, so any issues associated with it cannot be taken lightly. I have to get a doctor to check on his condition. If something were to happen, the consequences would be dire.

Nevertheless, Stanley raised his arm to reject her suggestion. “No need!”

Joyce frowned. “Why won't you let me get a doctor? Mr. Quinn, you're feeling unwell, right?”

“Mm.” He let out a noncommittal grunt.

She pursed her lips and replied, “Since you feel unwell, I must get a doctor to check on you. You're a doctor yourself, so I'm sure you know the importance of being healthy. Besides, doctors hate disobedient patients, and I believe you know that well. That's all the more reason for you to see a doctor.”

Hearing how serious she sounded, Stanley stopped massaging the space between his brows and stared straight at her. “Why are you insisting that I see a doctor? Are you afraid I'll die?”

“Mr. Quinn!” Joyce's brows puckered in a frown. “Mr. Quinn, I'm being serious here. Stop talking nonsense!”

“I'm being serious, too.” He folded his arms. “Joyce, I'm your family's enemy. Don't you want me to die? Besides, your family will stand to benefit from my death since no one will bear a grudge against the Rivers family or harm you. That way, you and your family won't have to live in fear. Don't you want me dead?”

His utterances stupefied her utterly, and it took her a while to regain her composure. Parting her lips, she asked, “Mr. Quinn, why would you think that way, and why do you think my family should have those sentiments?”
