Love Is a Sweet Addiction

“What? Did I say anything wrong? Besides, have you ever seen Mr. Terence? How do you know he looks ugly?”

Anne sneered and she could finally say something, “I haven’t seen him before, but someone else has.”

“Who’s that?” Esther asked, “You mean James? How could you believe everything he said?”

“Hey.” Just as Esther thought that she had finally overwhelmed Anne, who couldn’t figure out a way to refute her words, a strange voice sounded at the entrance of the lobby.

Everyone in the lobby was stunned for a moment before they turned around at the same time.

There were two men standing in the dark, but Esther still could recognize that one of the two men might be the guy who helped her at the gate of the hotel that day. However, she knew nothing about the other.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on her face. She thought to herself that it was so unlucky to meet him here, especially when she was having a quarrel with someone.

Anne recognized Terence earlier than Esther did. Just like what happened last time, she fell for him at the first sight again.

This man still looked so handsome and charming. His model-like figure, his finely carved facial features and even the expression on his face looked as elegant and gorgeous as last time.

Anne deliberately asked Betty to make some inquiries about him from Esther last time, but Esther refused to say anything. It had been annoying her for days. The image of that man came to her mind, even when she was having sex with James.

Probably both men and women would always think about what they could get.

“I mean, I’ve seen him…” Smiling, Ross walked towards the crowd with one of his hands in the pocket. He looked around and said, “I’ve seen Terence.”

“You’ve seen Terence? Really?” Anne was still staring at the man beside the gate, so she didn’t reply to him. Meanwhile, one of her friends asked in curiosity, “Does he really look ugly? How ugly?”

“Well, he’s way too ugly. And he’s short. His face is covered with pockmarks. Anyway, I have never seen such an ugly man in my life before.”

“Well, are you kidding us?” The women started to laugh.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

“Of course not. I never lie to beauties.”

“You were lying. The short and ugly one is you.” Esther glared at him.

Although she had never seen Terence’s appearance clearly, she was sure about his height. He was as tall as a model.

Casting a glance at the man appearing in front of her in a sudden, Esther felt like she had seen him before somewhere. Well, how come she had the feeling again? It happened to her so frequently these days. In order to figure out why the man said that, Esther asked him, “Who on earth are you? Why did you critique the appearance of a man irrelevant to you for no reason?”

“I’m Terence’s attending doctor. Not only do I know that he’s ugly, I also know that he won’t be able to live long. Beauty, divorce him as soon as you can if you don’t want to be a widow.” Ross giggled, completely ignoring how livid Terence was being behind him.

He was Terence’s attending doctor? No wonder he looked familiar to Esther. She seemed to have seen him that night. It was the first time she had accidentally barged into Terence’s bedroom and seen him having an episode.

“Nonsense!” Her retort was weak, since he was Terence’s attending doctor, who was supposed to know more about his physical condition than her.
