Chapter 53: We Thought He'd Never Marry

Sonya smiled, seeing Mr. Reynolds pouting.

Sonya began massaging his hand, from palm to fingertips, asking about his daily routine, just like she would a patient.

Mr. Reynolds, somewhat afraid of doctors, sat up straight, assuring her he hadn't been drinking or eating rich foods lately.

"No?" Linda scoffed. "Who's been ordering takeout at the office-lobster, skewers, pork belly-and still smoking and drinking, and not exercising?"

""I... I didn't."

"I installed cameras in your office. You can't hide it from me."

Mr. Reynolds remained stubborn, but silent.

After the massage, Sonya checked his blood pressure again; it was much lower.

"Quit smoking and drinking, exercise more-these are necessary. Your diet needs to be light, with a balance of meat and vegetables," Sonya adopted her doctor's demeanor, furrowing her brow."At your age, high blood pressure is dangerous; it can lead to other conditions. You must take this seriously."

"Yes, doctor. I'll listen to you.'

"Good. Start with quitting smoking and drinking."

"No?"
