Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 128 Such A Terrifying Possessiveness

Preston Blake raised his chin and said, “I’m not afraid.”

“So brave? Then go and lie down on the bed. I’ll insert a few needles in your body to try,” Annalise Barton said. When Preston heard ‘a few needles’ would be inserted, he frowned and asked, “How many needles?”

He had to know how many needles there were in all.

“Nine needles,” Annalise said.

She could tell that Preston was terrified of getting pierced by needles. In that case, she would choose the acupuncture combination with fewer needles.

“You’ll see how brave I am after two inserting two needles. There’s no need for nine,” Preston said.

“No, I can’t tell with two needles. What if you’re pretending to be brave?” Annalise rebutted him skillfully.

When she was overseas for a few years, she interacted with all kinds of patients and gave treatment to children more often. Preston only had the intelligence of a toddler. As long as she treated him like a child and coaxed him while she worked, it would be fine.

Preston glanced at Annalise as if he couldn’t find the right words to refute her. He said, “Then do it.”

He headed back into the house.

When he reached the door, he suddenly turned to look at Annalise. “But I’m fine and not sick. Why do I have to undergo acupuncture?”

“We’re just competing to see who’s braver!” Annalise blinked her black, bright eyes.

Seeing Annalise behaving this way, Julian Parks could not help but lower his head and laugh.

Preston thought for a moment. It made sense. They were competing to see who was braver.

He said, “Then, after I’m done, you have to go through the same procedure.”

“Okay.” Annalise immediately agreed.

Julian silently thought that if Annalise wanted to undergo acupuncture later, he would take her place instead. Preston obediently ran to the bed and lay down.

“I’m going to start inserting the needles. It doesn’t hurt at all. I’ll be gentle when I insert the needles into you. You have to be gentle too when you insert the needles into me later,” Annalise coaxed.
