Chapter 61 Relieve
The scenario at the first shop.
“Shopkeeper, what’s with that look? Don’t you <b>have </b>any women at home? Even if you don’t have a wife, you must <b>have </b>a mother, right? What’s with that expression over such a typical physiological issue?”
The scenario at the second shop<b>..</b>
“Hello, boss. Just to rify, I’m not buying this for myself, and I don’t have any peculiar fetishes.”
The scenario at the third <b>shop</b>.
“Hey, can you say something? Why are you staring at me? Hey, hey, bro, don’te any closer. What are you trying to do?”
“Don’t move. let me finish. If you have a sanitary pad, just <b>nod</b>; if you don’t, <b>just </b>shake your head. That’s all. You don’t have to <b>say </b>anything else<b>. </b><b>And</b>…stay away from me.”
“You’re a pervert! Your entire family is a bunch of perverts. Do you believe I can’t understand your gibberish? Don’t you want to stay in Melfrey?”N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.
“Stop dragging me. I have to have a showdown with him today.”
Dn cursed and grumbled. His henchmen forced him <b>away </b>from another store. He was so mad that he cursed in front of the store for a good two minutes, letting out all the swear words he knew <b>in </b>his life.
It was an unprecedented disy of rudeness and aggression.
Taking a deep breath, he turned to see his henchmen trying hard to contain theirughter, their facial features contorted.
Dn fired away angrily, “What are youughing at? Keep looking! I doubt we <b>can’t </b><b>find </b>it in such a big city as Melfrey!”
In the hotel, George noticed Isabelle’splexion was pale, <b>and </b>sweat covered her forehead and nose. She appeared <b>cold</b>. George remembered something and fetched the nket he had used the previous night.
spread it out and covered Isabelle’s belly and legs with it.
George was decisive in the business world, but this was the first time he encountered such a situation. Apart from offering a <b>ss </b>of warm water and a nket, he didn’t know what else to do.
He saw that Isabelle was in difort and asked, “Ms. Jenkins, would you like to make a trip to the hospital? Or perhaps you need some painkillers?”
“I’m alright,” Isabelle replied softly
George could only relent.
Suddenly, he recalled something else. So he took out his phone and quietly went googling.
After learning a bit, he sent <b>a </b>message to Dn to bring some honey back.

Isabelle spoke up suddenly and took George by surprise. When he realised why Isabelle needed the needle, he readily agreed.
Dn finally returned when Isabelle was on the brink of losing her patient.
George went to open the door.
Dn seemed to have been through some hardship; he looked disheveled. His meticulously styled hair was now messy, his clothes wrinkled, and the originally sharp eyes above his mask became dull.
George couldn’t help but furrow his brow at the sight.
Was he shopping or attempting a robbery?
“Mr. George,” Dn said weakly as he pulled down his mask. His expression was one of lifelessness<b>, </b>and he sajd, “I ….. I have a dust allergy, so I have to wear a mask,”
Feeling the weight of George’s incredulous gaze, Dnmented inwardly about his tarnished image. He said, “Here are the needles and honey you asked for, and that thing. Dn <b>handed </b>over the items to George as if passing a hot potato.
It was arge ck stic bag, bulging with its contents.
George took the heavy bag and furrowed his brow. He scolded, “Didn’t you buy a little <b>too </b>much? What’s the matter? Are you using them too?!”
“Supplies are scarce; it’d better to have more just in case. You have no idea how hard it is to find these things. I’ve searched through half of Melfrey’s shops…”
Before Dn could finish his sentence, the door mmed shut with a bang.
He looked at the door, which nearly touched his <b>nose</b>, and overcame his helplessness to finish his words.
Those shopkeepers, they’re too <b>bad</b>.”
George looked at the various packages in the bag, feeling overwhelmed. He randomly grabbed two and handed them to Isabelle in the bathroom.
iss Jenkins? The stuff is here.”
George knocked on the door.
In the two–plus hours that Dn was away for shopping, Isabelle had gone to the bathroom at least five times. She hadn’te out after thest trip.
There was somemotioning from the bathroom.
After a while, the door opened a crack.
A delicate hand reached out froth the crack.
When Isabelle finally came out of the restroom, George had prepared a ss of honey water and was waiting for her.
Isabelle knew the honey water wouldn’t work, but she still epted it. She said, “Thank you, Mr. Harris.”

George replied. “And for the needles you asked for, these are the only ones I could find
Isabelle took the needle case from George.
Opening it, she found a dozen or so needles inside, which were quite long and highly resembled acupuncture needles. These needles were much better than she had expected.
After taking the needles, Isabelle went to the TV cab to find the hotel–provided lighter before sitting down on the sofa.
George stood on the side. He watched as Isabelle heated the needle’s tip with a lighter.
Once the tip of the needle turned red–hot, Isabelle lifted her foot and pierced the pressure point at about 3 inches above the side of her ankle.
Rubbing the end of the needle with her fingertips, Isabelle slowly rotated it, pushing it deeper into her skin with each movement.
“Is this Fiery Needling? Because of his father’s illness, George had some dealings with Mr. Garth from Maven Apoth
