Once a Doormat Now Untouchable (Caleb and Sydney) novel Chapter 370

“Why have you suddenly stopped wanting to introduce me to that young doctor?” Julian’s tone was devoid of emotion, a flatness that hinted at deeper frustrations.

Agatha hesitated, her mind racing. “You tend to prolong things unnecessarily. I can’t introduce you to her right now. She’s already—” The words teetered on the edge of her lips, but she managed to clamp down on them just in time.

Julian’s voice sharpened, suspicion lacing his question. “Already what?”

“Nothing, nothing at all. I’ll just find someone else for you,” she said hurriedly, desperate to divert the conversation.

Julian pinched the bridge of his nose, the beginnings of a headache pulsing at his temples. “Who are you thinking of this time?”

Raymond, ever the instigator, jumped in with enthusiasm. “Just set it up. If he won’t go, I’ll go with him,” he said, a mischievous glint in his eye.

“It’s that young doctor’s good friend,” Agatha interjected, recalling the details. “Her name is Tiffany.”

Suddenly, Julian coughed, his eyes sparkling with mischief as he shot a teasing glance at Raymond. “You’ll go with me?”

Raymond’s face shifted dramatically, a mix of pale and green washing over him. Who could have anticipated that a simple outing would lead to this unexpected predicament?

Agatha, blissfully unaware of their silent exchange, continued with her cheerful demeanor. “That girl’s personality is so vibrant. I checked her out. She’s single, and I heard she’s a lawyer too.”

In a swift motion, Raymond lunged forward, snatching the phone from Julian’s grasp. He cleared his throat, ready to steer the conversation. “Ms. Norwood, that was just a joke. Let me assure you, Jules’ love life is incredibly stable at the moment. He’ll be bringing you a granddaughter-in-law soon enough. We’re heading into a meeting now. Let’s talk later, and please take care of yourself!”

He hastily ended the call and tossed the phone back to Julian, who caught it with ease and shot Raymond a sidelong glare.
