The illness depends on your mental health as well. You might live an ordinary life if you can find someone who can bring about change, or you may end up feeling isolated.”
The others fell silent.
Julian nodded. “That’s what my doctor told me. So, Josh, go back and inform my dad that he doesn’t need to worry about me any longer, and that they should stop holding onto hope. I don’t know who can save me.”
“Julian, that sounds like an excuse.”
After hearing Julian’s words, everyone shared Josh’s thoughts.
The other bachelors silently cursed, thinking, ‘Julian is really going to extremes to avoid being pressured into marriage. He’s willing to claim he has an illness and doesn’t care about losing face.’
Yet, they couldn’t emulate Julian’s ruthlessness.
No wonder Julian managed to control many of their secrets while no one knew his unless he chose to reveal them.
Moreover, they couldn’t verify if the secrets he disclosed were genuine.
Regardless, Julian was tall and handsome. He worked out regularly and was in excellent health. How could he possibly suffer from hypoactive sexual desire disorder? The others, who had not read extensively, were unfamiliar with the condition.
After some thought, Jasmine asked her best friend, “Is that the same illness the male lead from the romance novel I read has?”
“I learned about it in a reading club, not from a novel. You know I’m not fond of novels.”
While at the bookstore, Jasmine would read novels, while Serenity focused on knitting. Serenity occasionally read books during her free time, favoring popular or historical works. She would only turn to well-known novels aimed at men when absolutely necessary.
Serenity had no interest in the contemporary romance novels that Jasmine read daily.
Josh
He thought that his cousin appeared to be uninterested in women. Could it be that Julian indeed had hypoactive sexual desire disorder and was not simply making an excuse? No one present could verify whether Julian was telling the truth, but Walter could. If Josh informed his uncle about this, his uncle would confirm it. Josh decided to return to Bucham Manor tonight to discuss this with his uncle. If his cousin was genuinely suffering, there was nothing he could do to change that. Julian’s doctor mentioned that treatment would be challenging. Since Josh had not studied medicine, what could he do to help?
