Dylan spat out the water he had just drunk.
He hurriedly leaned forward to grab tissues from the dispenser and wiped his mouth as well as the wet stains on his clothes.
“My apologies.” He was a tad embarrassed, and yet there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. Once he had straightened up again, he pretended to act serious by rubbing his chin in deep thought. Then he said in a straight-faced manner, “There actually is something wrong with Mr. Rogers. He really does have a problem.”

This bit of gossip was nothing exciting for Larissa, but as she had not quite experienced it herself, she could not relate to him.
She just didn’t quite understand. “How does being a germaphobe have anything to do with rejecting Karin Gallagher?”
“Mr. Rogers’ germaphobia is so extreme that he can’t even have bodily contact with anyone else. When he goes out on business trips, he doesn’t even want to shake other people’s hands.”

Hence, she did not understand how Kevan’s ridiculous germaphobia would lead him to refuse Karin and have a call girl instead. Could it be that Karin was dirtier than a call girl to him?
Dylan saw her confusion but did not elaborate. Some things could not be interfered with by outsiders like him.
Larissa did not have the courage to ask either.
