The Luckiest Dumb Doctor

Chapter 162: Chapter 162: Secret_1

Louisa Burley only felt a broad palm resting on her back, emitting a cool sensation that instantly cleared her mind.

She was wearing a thin silk white shirt, so light that she could even feel the texture of the palm through it.

At that moment, a warm voice came from beside her ear, “It’s okay, we should

be able to stay a while longer.”

“Um, thank you, Mr. Jensen.”

Feeling the touch from her back, Louisa’s face turned red all the way to her

ears.

She deliberately changed the subject, “Mr. Jensen, is this True Qi? Like… the kind they talk about in martial arts novels?”

Greg Jensen found it somewhat amusing and asked, “Have you read martial arts novels?”

Louisa’s face turned red again and she said, “Um, these past years I couldn’t go out, so I could only read books at home.

When I’ve had enough of one type of book, I switch to another, so I’ve read some martial arts novels.”

Hearing this, Greg raised an eyebrow and laughed, “So, you want to be a hero too?”

“Not at all…”

Louisa’s face grew even rosier, set off by her short hair, she looked fresh and lovely, giving off a different vibe.

With her face blushing, she said, “I… 1 just thought…

“Thought what?” Greg asked curiously.

“Nothing.”

Louisa shook her head but silently added to herself: I wish for a hero to come

save me.

The two fell into silence once again.

Louisa spoke up, “Mr. Jensen, you haven’t told me, is that warmth from your palm True Qi?”

The matter of True Qi was Greg’s biggest secret and shouldn’t be mentioned to anyone.

But for some reason, upon hearing Louisa’s question, he found himself blurting out:

“Right, it’s True Qi, but that’s my secret; you can’t tell anyone else.”

A hint of excitement appeared on Louisa’s face, and she nodded emphatically,

“Yes, Mr. Jensen, 1’11 definitely keep your secret safe.”

“Hahaha…”

Seeing her serious demeanor, Greg couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Just then, Spencer Burley suddenly came over and, seeing the hand resting on his sister’s back, his eyes widened in surprise.

He pointed at Greg’s hand, shocked, “You guys… are moving a bit fast, huh?”

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

Louisa’s face turned red as she shyly lowered her head.

Greg also felt a bit embarrassed and removed his hand, explaining, You re thinking too much, I was just giving her a massage.”

“Oh, I get it, haha…”

Spencer gave him a look that said “I understand” and grinned broadly at Greg, teasing him with his laughter.

Louisa, a bit flustered, stood up and hurriedly said, “Mr. Jensen, let’s head back,

I’m feeling a bit tired.”

“Oh, all right.”

Greg stood up, accompanying her back.

Adrian Wright also came over and, watching the two of them from behind, said with a bit of concern, “They aren’t going to…”

Spencer, likewise watching the departing figures of Greg and Louisa, said excitedly, “I wish something would happen between them; then my sister wouldn’t have to marry that bastard.”

Adrian frowned and said, “Don’t screw things up; if you mess with big bro Greg,

I won’t let you off.”

Spencer’s expression turned serious, but he quickly laughed and said, “For some reason, I feel like big bro Greg can handle it.”

“Get the hell out of here.”

Adrian was about to scold him when he saw Jaden Ford approaching; he quickly forced a smile, “Tracy, I’m heading off, and you and Magnus head back early too.”

He gave Spencer, who looked completely baffled, a mischievous eyebrow raise, chuckling, “Magnus, you’ve got to seize the opportunity.”

“Adrian Wright, 1 swear I’m cutting ties with you!”

Spencer Burley watched his friend’s retreating back, his nose fuming with anger, a face full of indignation.

At that moment, a ghostly voice came through, “I can lose weight.

“Huh?”

Spencer Burley smiled awkwardly and said with an embarrassed laugh, “Right now… it’s pretty good, well… let’s head back first. The meal at home should be ready.”

“Okay.”

Jaden Ford knew what Spencer Burley was thinking, but didn’t mind at all; instead, she curled the corners of her mouth into a smile and murmured, “This method of gaining weight really works, but it seems like it worked a little too well.”

She looked down at her stomach and sighed, “It looks like I really need to lose weight.”

When Greg Jensen and Louisa Burley returned to the villa, Annie Stuart was chatting with a middle-aged lady.

Seeing her daughter return safe and sound, Annie Stuart was very happy, but still a little worried, she asked, “Louisa, why were you gone so long? Are you feeling okay?”

“It’s fine, Mr. Jensen was with me,” said Louisa Burley, her cheeks flushed.

Annie Stuart gave her a look and chided, “Look how red your face is, and you say you’re fine. Go rest in your room for a while, it’s almost time for dinner.

“Okay.”

Louisa Burley glanced at Greg Jensen, nodded at him, and then quickly scarpered off to her room.

Annie Stuart said with a smile, “Mr. Jensen, thank you for your efforts, please have a seat.”

“Auntie, there’s no need to be so polite, I’m friends with Spencer, you can just call me Greg.”

“Haha, then I won’t stand on ceremony.”

Annie Stuart laughed and then asked, “Young Greg, how old are you?”

“Twenty-three.”

“So young.”

The middle-aged lady beside her was surprised; evidently, she had found out about Greg Jensen’s situation from Annie Stuart’s conversation.

Annie Stuart was also a bit amazed and continued, “Do you have a girlfriend, young Greg?”

“Ah, no… no.”

Greg Jensen was stupefied, thinking to himself, was Annie Stuart addicted to pushing marriage?

Indeed, chatting with elders was the most terrifying thing!

He answered many questions with trepidation until Adrian Wright and Spencer Burley and others walked in.

He grabbed onto them like a lifeline and eagerly started talking about the Dreamscape Garden renovation.

Seeing they were discussing important matters, Annie Stuart didn’t intrude and went into the kitchen with the middle-aged lady, saying she wanted to make a dish herself and share some experience.

Once they left, Adrian Wright smirked mysteriously and said, “You got the marriage nudge too, huh?”

Greg Jensen smiled wryly and nodded.

Spencer Burley said with a look of grief, “Brother Greg, you finally understand my pain now, huh.”

“Go away.”

Adrian Wright rolled his eyes at him and said, “Our situation is different from yours; you’re the only male in a big family.

If you don’t get married, how will you carry on the family line? 1 bet your parents can’t wait for you to find a wife and have them seven or eight grandchildren.”

“Seven or eight?”

Spencer Burley’s eyes widened, “You might as well kill me! Even the donkeys in the production team wouldn’t be worked that hard!”

“Hahahaha…”

Greg Jensen and Adrian Wright burst into laughter.

“Alright, let’s get back to the renovation. Now that we’ve bought the place, I’m still stressed about decorating it.”

Adrian Wright and Spencer Burley fell silent; ever since Alfredo Harrison bought the Dreamscape Garden, this haunted house has earned an infamous reputation in Jamae City’s renovation circles.

So much so that hardly anyone in Jamae City dared to take on the Dreamscape Garden project..
