Chapter 259

And he looked angry and pained.

She couldn’t blame Jesse for this, it was all owed to him. She had caused him too much harm and psychological trauma before, and he probably couldn’t fully trust her.

She kept telling herself not to be sad, but tears kept falling uncontrollably. She wiped them away repeatedly with her hand, but in the end, she could only bury her face in her legs and cry softly.

Try again.

Maybe if she gave him more time, he could trust her again.

He was like ice, but if she held it long enough, it would eventually melt.

In fact, after being reborn, her memories of their relationship, especially in the early years, were always very vague. Unless reminded, she could barely recall anything, and sometimes she didn’t remember at all.

But she felt there must be a reason why Jesse was so resistant to her touching or looking at his legs.

She sent a message to Vergil:

[If there’s anything, please let me know in time, please.]

When Vergil saw this message, he felt sad.

He was very aware that the relationship between the master and his wife had been getting better recently, and his wife didn’t seem to dislike him as much as before. But there was still a faint suspicion in his heart that he couldn’t completely eliminate for the time being.

“Dr. Wallaker, how is the master’s condition?” Vergil asked worriedly.

Vincent didn’t speak, just had a serious look on his face, which made Vergil very worried. He regretted taking Jesse to see that Traditional Chinese Doctor, but that doctor was really famous and had cured many difficult diseases. Who knew it would turn out like this?

And it was just a few needles, how could it…

Vergil fell into infinite self-blame.

“It’s okay, no problem,” Vincent finally spoke, exhaling a breath and relaxing.

“No problem? Are you sure? Or has it not shown up yet?”

“For now, there’s no problem, and from the data, it seems to be better than before.”

“Really?” Vergil went from feeling guilty to feeling fortunate.

“Let’s observe for a bit more.”

Vincent wondered if it really worked. If it did, he wouldn’t stop Jesse from trying again.

“What else did the Traditional Chinese Doctor say?”

“We need to go back tomorrow for more acupuncture.”

“Then I’ll go with you.”

Jesse woke up after five in the morning.

Feeling bewildered about his surroundings, Jesse’s memories slowly came back when he saw Vergil next to him. He touched Vergil, who immediately woke up.

“Sir, you’re awake. Is there anything uncomfortable?” Vergil asked.

“I’m fine. What’s my situation now?” Jesse replied.

“Last night, you suddenly had severe leg pain, so I called Dr. Wallaker to come over. He gave you a sedative and brought you to the hospital,” Vergil explained.

Jesse lowered his head, remembering Nydia’s expression when she left the bedroom.

“Oh, by the way, Dr. Wallaker said your legs are fine, and according to the examination data, they seem to have improved somewhat from before. He said we should go see a Traditional Chinese Doctor with him today,” Vergil added.

“What?” Jesse was somewhat incredulous because he really had no hope.

“When Dr. Wallaker comes, you can ask him,” Vergil said.

Vincent appeared at the hospital at 8 am and had breakfast with Jesse before joining them to see the Traditional Chinese Doctor.

Upon hearing about Jesse’s situation last night, the Traditional Chinese Doctor frowned.

“These are the data I tested. Take a look. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me,” Vincent showed respect for the Traditional Chinese Doctor.

The Traditional Chinese Doctor looked at the data and said, “I can’t understand it very well, but the pain you experienced last night was unexpected.”

He checked Jesse’s pulse and looked at his legs.

“Your situation is a bit complicated. After the needle was inserted yesterday, your meridians and qi were activated, which caused severe pain in your legs. However, this doesn’t mean it can be cured. I need to be clear about this with you,” the Traditional Chinese Doctor explained.

“But I think it’s better to do something than nothing. Maybe we can combine Western and Chinese medicine and create a miracle,” Vincent said.

Jesse’s heart skipped a beat. Is that true? He couldn’t help but feel hopeful.
