The sound of the door o
opening echoed, freezing the movements of Austin and Aaron.
Sante’s face appeared in front of them, and after a quick glance at the situation outside, she calmly said, “The treatment is finished. You can go in nove.
Aaron and Felicia wasted no time and rushed into the room
Austin, however, remained where he was, his gaze falling on Suzanne. He saw her give a slight nod in his direction, and for the first time in a long while, his furrowed brow relaxed.
Without a word, Austin stepped forward, his movements smooth as he took Suzanne’s hand.
She was momentarily taken aback, Instinctively glancing down at their hands, but Austin led her inside without saying anything more.
Inside the hospital room, Felicia rushed to the bedside, abandoning her usual composed demeanor as all her focus shifted to Yasmine
With tears in her eyes, she looked her daughter up and down, her voice tinged with worry. “Yasmine, bow are you feeling?”
Yasmine grabbed Felicia’s hand and nodded enthusiastically, her face radiant with joy. “Mom, I can move my legs now!”
Felicia let out a heavy sigh of relief, nodding excitedly in response. “That’s great. That’s fantastic news.”
Aaron, standing nearby, was stunned. Yasmine could move her legs now?

Instinctively, he glanced toward Suzanne before staring at Austin
Recalling how rashly he had acted earlier, he felt awkward, but that awkwardness quickly gave way to overwhelming relief. The burden seemed to have lifted from his shoulders, and he felt lighter, more at ease.

Suzanne hadn’t expected such a formal thank you. She paused for a moment before giving a slight nod. “There’s no need for that, Mr. Stanton. It’s just my duty as a doctor.”
Suppressing her thoughts, Suzanne returned to the matter at hand and stepped forward. “Mr. Stanton, you’ll need to do the follow–up care. I’ll let you know which of her acupoints needs to be massaged.”
Once she was done, Austin finally looked at Suzanne. His voice was calm as he said, “Let’s go.”
