When I Flash-Married a Billionaire, My Ex Went on a Hunger Strike novel Chapter 16

Laura was even more shocked. "You know Lewis?"

Adora didn’t answer.

Instead, she gritted her teeth and instructed her best friend, "Get in the car and stay put. Don’t let him see you. I’ll handle him!"

Laura called after her, trying to stop her, but Adora was already striding forward with a determined air.

At that moment, Lewis Burns finished his call and glanced outside.

Startled, Laura's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly ducked back into the car to avoid being seen.

Inside the restaurant, Louis was still on the phone.

Nathan had asked him to lunch, but that guy was running late.

"I’m giving you ten more minutes. If you’re not here, I’m leaving," he said coldly, hanging up in frustration.

Before he could even set his phone down, someone stormed toward him, looking cold and furious.

Louis narrowed his eyes in displeasure as he recognized her.

Adora?

What was she doing here? And with such an intense, hostile look?

"Something wrong?" He raised an eyebrow, his tone indifferent.

Adora pulled out the chair across from him and sat down, letting out a sharp scoff before speaking with biting sarcasm.

"I finally understand why Eugene is such a scumbag. Turns out, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree."

Louis adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, his face turning ice-cold.

"If you’re mentally unstable, you should see a psychiatrist. Want me to recommend one?" His words were cutting—when it came to sharp tongues, he had never lost a battle.

Adora sneered and let her gaze drop briefly to his waist before making a pointed remark.

"Maybe you’re the one who should see a doctor. Keep messing around, and it’s only a matter of time before you get burned. Viruses don’t discriminate—even against doctors."

Louis frowned deeply. "What the hell are you talking about?"

Adora’s cold eyes swept over him.

"Don’t act clueless. You’re a sleazy womanizer, always cracking dirty jokes. I even heard you’re known for it. How fitting for a doctor.

Louis knew none of this.

But as he looked at Adora’s furious expression, he could sense that she had gone through something deeply painful.

He wouldn’t deny that there were some disgusting scumbags in his profession—men who took advantage of patients under the guise of medical treatment.

But he was not one of them.

And he had no idea why Adora suddenly barged in just to throw such baseless accusations at him.

Seeing his silence, Adora assumed he was too guilty to argue back.

Her expression grew even more contemptuous.

"I thought you were just an incompetent doctor. Turns out, you’re a sick pervert too! I’m warning you to stay away from Laura, or I’ll expose all your disgusting deeds online and let the public…"

Before she could finish her threat, her phone rang.

It was Laura.

"Adora, why aren’t you there yet? He just called me, asking if I’m standing him up again, and he’s threatening to complain to my dad." Laura sounded confused.
