Chapter 515

“There’s no need to take a look at my hand. I’ve been suffering from it for quite some time now, and Jonathan took me to the doctor back then, too.” Rosalie withdrew her hand. At that time, the doctor had told her that her fingers had missed the best time for treatment.

After that, she took some medicine to relieve her bone pain caused by the cold and damp weather.

“We’re already here anyway, so just let Mr. Sabatini look at your hand. He doesn’t normally treat just any patient,” Calvin said as he pulled Rosalie into the clinic.

Then, Rosalie saw a white-bearded older adult in a white coat sitting on a chair in the deserted clinic while a cliché romantic drama played on the 32-inch television on the wall before him.

Rosalie had heard her colleagues mention the apparently tear-jerking TV series in the office before.

At the moment, the older adult was engrossed in the show, watching the TV solemnly as if he was enjoying a documentary.

Calvin spoke. “Mr. Sabatini, is that your wife’s recent favorite TV series?”

The man, Levi Sabatini, wheeled his head around quickly. When he saw Calvin, he complained, “Can your company stop producing these cliché TV series? My wife is an avid fan of them and keeps forcing me to watch these dramas with her. Moreover, she would even ask my opinion after the show finishes!”

Levi mused, “I can’t stand this TV series. Not only was I unable to tell her my opinion, but she also got agitated with me. In the end, the mere matter of me not being focused while watching a TV series turned into an argument about our relationship status. She said if I don’t watch the TV series whole-

heartedly and immerse myself into the plot, then I’m disrespecting our marriage and relationship.”

And so, all Levi could do now was catch up on these cliché TV series so that whenever he and his wife have their nightly discussion of the plot, Levi would have something to say.

Calvin said indifferently, “The Gunner Group is not behind this TV series.”

Levi paused, saying annoyed, “Why are you here today, and why do you have a woman with you?

Don’t you know that I dislike being interrupted?”

“You run an orthopedic clinic here. Of course, I’m here with someone to see you about matters related to the bone,” Calvin said. “Her hand was hurt before, and she’s a little inflexible when writing and holding the fork. Didn’t you say that you’re the -best orthopedic in Strico? I’m depending on you to heal her now.”

“What do you mean that’s what I said? It’s the truth. I’m the best orthopedic in Strico!” Levi’s aura changed the moment Calvin mentioned his profession. He sat Rosalie down. “Let me see your hand.”

Rosalie stretched out her hands. Levi took a detailed look at her hands as his expression turned solemn. “Did someone break all the bones in your fingers?”

Rosalie hummed in agreement. She used to think pain was the most extreme feeling she would ever have. Not until she went to jail did she realize that more traumatizing experiences were waiting for her.

But Calvin was stunned upon hearing her words.

He thought, “Her fingers… are all broken? I never thought that her condition was going to be so bad.”

“Your nails have been pulled out before, right? This is a regrowth of your nails,” Levi added.

“Yes,” Rosalie replied again, slightly surprised. She didn’t expect Levi to know that just by looking at her hands.

“Just like Calvin has said, Mr. Sabatini really is a capable man,” Rosalie mused.

Meanwhile, her words caused a surge of emotions through Calvin.

“What has she been through? Her fingernails were pulled out, and her fingers were broken! Who did those things to her? I want to end that person now!”

Levi touched Rosalie’s fingers somberly. After a while, he said, “Go and get your fingers an X-ray scan.

I need to see your fingers’ condition.”

And so, Rosalie went to a radiology room that was starkly different from the rest of the small clinic.

Levi carefully looked at the radiograph after that. After a long consideration, he said to Rosalie, “You didn’t get the necessary treatment after you got hurt back then and have passed the best treatment time.”

to I know,” Rosalie responded. The specialist that Jonathan had brought ban “You should feel pain in your fingers during every cold and damp day nou o 2 same thing.

her And it be difficult to complete some fine movements with your fingers.” Levi continued, “But there is still a chance to heal your fingers.”

Rosalie was stunned. “Can you fix them?”

“The major hospital can only help you relieve the pain caused by cold and damp days. But if I’m the one treating you, I can improve your fingers’ flexibility. At least that way, you can use a fork and write like ordinary people. However, the treatment process will hurt, and I cannot use anesthetics on you.

You can consider whether to go ahead with the treatment.”

Rosalie didn’t expect that her fingers could be further treated, and she thought she had to live like this for the rest of her life. “It doesn’t matter. I can endure the pain,” Rosalie voiced. The only best thing that came out of her three years of jail time was increasing her pain endurance level.

“That’s good. You will need to come here every seven days. You can decide when is your next visit while I prepare my tools,” Levi explained.

“What’s the cost of treatment?” Rosalie asked.

Hearing this, Levi glanced at Calvin strangely. “What’s the relationship between you and her? Are you guys not dating? Is she planning to pay the money herself?”

Calvin said gracefully, “We are not dating, but I’m pursuing her.”

Levi was surprised. “Wow. I certainly didn’t expect that from you.” He looked at Rosalie. “You don’t need to pay me since Calvin brought you here.”

“No, I still have to pay the treatment fee,” Rosalie insisted. However, she knew if the treatment was too costly, she would have to earn the money first before coming back for the treatment.

Calvin looked at Rosalie without saying anything further.

Levi quoted a price of 60 dollars for each treatment. There was a total of eight treatments in one course. Then, Levi would determine whether to continue the treatment by examining Rosalie’s condition.

Rosalie breathed a sigh of relief, for she could afford the treatment fee.

When they left the clinic and returned to Calvin’s car, Rosalie said, “Thank you for bringing me here today because, for all I know, I’ve already lost confidence in healing my hands.”
