Walter's expression didn't change. He said, "No, I wouldn't think like that.

Suddenly, Shakira leaned in close, accidentally bumping his nose with hers. She said, "I don't know why, but I have a feeling you and Mr. Goodman are keeping something from me." Back then, she hadn't thought much about it. But recently, Walter had been cooperating with her treatment and showed neither resistance nor emotion, so she found it quite strange. She thought, 'Why's he so calm?

'Has he convinced himself? Or is there another reason?'

Walter just let her observe him, looking honest.

After staring at him for a long while without gaining anything, Shakira had to give up.

She rolled to the other side, lay on her back, and stared at the ceiling.

Seeing that Shakira seemed to become dejected, Walter slightly raised his eyebrow with mixed emotions in his eyes.

He reassured her, "Don't be too discouraged. Maybe your method will work in the end."

Shakira turned her face toward him and looked at him with hope gleaming in her eyes. She said, "Really? Do you really believe in me?"

Walter curled his finger to tap her nose and said, "If I don't believe you, who will I believe?"

Shakira said, "Great! Then starting tomorrow, we'll try a few more acupuncture points. Who knows, it might work!"

Shakira showed a triumphant smile, revealing her dimples.

She said, "I've been struggling with how to bring this up to you. Those acupuncture points are on the upper body, and it might be pretty uncomfortable. But since you agreed, I'll go ahead without holding back!" Walter was speechless.

He thought, 'Alright, this cunning fox was just setting me up.'

Rebecca's heart skipped a beat. She thought of Sean's call. Then she quickly went to Cody and asked, "Did something happen to the company?" Cody's expression got even worse. He said, "You've known it, too? Sean Reynolds that damn bastard!"

Rebecca's heart sank hard as she heard that name.
