Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 17 Alright , Ms.

Rhodes , lets get down to business , Andrew said , slightly overwhelmed by Laurens antics .

Her every move was irresistible , and he could not handle it anymore .

Laurens flirtatious smile faded as she nodded , Yes , lets talk business .

Fran , I believe Dr.

Lloyd can treat your condition , Lauren stated confidently .

Francesca glared at Andrew , scoffing , Him ? Ive consulted top specialists nationwide and even visited renowned experts in Braundville .

They all said it was complicated .

What makes this small time doctor think hes capable ? Andrew frowned , If Im not mistaken , the condition youre seeking treatment for is vaginal atresia , correct ? Francesca felt embarrassed at the mention of her condition .

She turned to Lauren and asked , Lauren , this was our secret .

Why did you tell this jerk ? Lauren quickly defended herself , Fran , I swear I never told him anything about your condition .

Francesca was skeptical .

Then how does he know about my … condition ? Andrew calmly replied , Not only do I know about your vaginal atresia , but Im also aware that youve been experiencing insomnia , hormonal imbalances , frequent chest tightness , and shortness of breath .

These are dangerous symptoms that could lead to asphyxiation .

Francesca was truly puzzled .

Even if Lauren had revealed her personal medical condition , he had never told anyone about her other symptoms .

So , how did Andrew know about them ? Fine , lets say youre right .

How would you solve my chest tightness and shortness of breath ? Francesca challenged , feeling like a novice despite her impressive medical background .

Andrew explained , Your chest discomfort is unique .

Its primarily due to your well endowed chest causing excessive pressure , especially with your quick temper .

The solution is to control your anger and focus on relaxation techniques or undergo a breast reduction surgery to slightly decrease the … size .

Francesca fell silent , looking at Andrew with a hint of shock .

His diagnosis was identical to her grandfathers a renowned medical expert in Jayrodale and the founder of the Aicker familys medical legacy .

Lauren chuckled and chimed in , Frans assets are a treasure ! We cant reduce them .

Dr.

Lloyd , you dont know how comfy they are to sleep on .

Francesca was flustered and scolded her , Lauren , shut up ! She glared at Andrew and continued , Fine , Ill trust you this once .

my condition ? Andrew replied calmly , It might be challenging for others , but for me , its just
