Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin)

Chapter 248

Todd straightened his back, his eyes widening in disbelief as he looked at Frankie. "Really?"

He didn't dare lower his head to check as his neck was covered in silver needles. Even the slightest movement would send pain shooting through his meridians. Frankie, visibly excited, nodded quickly. "Yes, really! The color has faded a lot."

Turning to Suzanne, his eyes glistened with gratitude. "Dr. Smith, you're truly a miracle doctor! This is incredible!"

He had harbored some doubts. After all, she was so young. But now, it was clear that the rumors of Jane's skill were not unfounded.

Suzanne didn't acknowledge his praise. She simply stood up, walked to the bathroom to wash her hands, and took an extra moment to disinfect them before returning to her seat beside Shane.

"That's it for today's treatment. But don't touch the needles. I'll remove them when it's time."

Todd's joy immediately turned into distress. "Wait, I have to stay like this?"

Wasn't this just like being comatose? At least someone in a comatose didn't feel pain, but with these needles, even the slightest touch would send him spiraling in agony.

A thought struck him, and he looked at Suzanne, asking hesitantly, "Then, how am I supposed to sleep tonight?"
