The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 1349

The following day, after finishing her breakfast, Mirabella phoned Adler, asking him to gather the research materials for their meeting at his place. But before heading over, she made a quick stop at the hospital to drop off the medicine she had prepared the previous night for Nick, along with giving him another round of acupuncture.

"You're doing well," Mirabella noted after feeling his pulse. "Just a few more days and you'll be discharged." She pulled a delicate silver needle wrapped in parchment from her pocket, motioning for Nick to lie back and unbutton his shirt.

"That's what the doctor said too," Nick responded with a nod.

Mirabella raised an eyebrow, her pale fingers expertly handling the slender needle, and pressed a point on his chest. "This might sting a bit," she warned.

With precision, she inserted the needle into the acupuncture point. Nick clenched his fists, suppressing a groan. It wasn't just a little sting; it was quite sharp. But gradually, the initial pain subsided, replaced by a curious sensation of energy flowing through him, leaving a tingling and slightly swollen feeling in its wake. After twenty minutes, Mirabella removed the needle. As she cleaned and disinfected it, she said, "This will be your last acupuncture session. From now on, the medication should do the trick."

Nick let out a relieved sigh, wiping the sweat from his forehead as he buttoned up his shirt. "Your technique seemed different today," he remarked.

Mirabella simply nodded, not elaborating, and handed him a jar of ointment from her bag. "Apply this morning and night. It'll help the wound heal quicker."
