Back to My Worst Birthday and Starting Anew
Chapter 50 Treatment
Emyr frowned, a subtle shift in his expression, and Charmaine’s eyes brightened at the change.
“How does this feel?” she asked, her voice filled with a quiet intensity.
“It’s numb. Not strong, just a faint feeling,” Emyr responded, his tone even.

Years of experience with his injury had sharpened his awareness. He recognized the pressure points immediately. Even the slightest touch on these spots usually triggered sharp pain. But Charmaine–he noticed her pressure was firm.
“Is it painful?” Charmaine pressed.
He shook his head in response.
Charmaine’s fingers moved upwards, gently gliding over his calf. “How about here?”
“This feels lighter,” Emyr said, his voice steady.
She continued her examination, moving higher toward his knee. The sensation diminished the closer she got to his thigh.
When she finished, Charmaine lowered his pant leg and slowly stood.
“The nerves in your leg have suffered varying levels of damage. Some inflammation is present near the nerve endings. We should try needle treatment to see if it helps.”
Emyr’s eyes narrowed with interest.
Since the accident, he had seen more doctors than he cared to count–specialists, renowned experts, all of them reluctant to give him any concrete answers.
But Charmaine, with just a few presses, had already come to a conclusion that the so–called experts hadn’t even dared to touch.
Was she truly skilled, or had all the others been mere pretenders?
His gaze turned sharp. “You’re going to do needle treatment?”
Charmaine, sensing his doubt, responded firmly, “I’m serious. I’m not messing around with you.”
At that exact moment, a crack of lightning split the sky, so loud it seemed to shake the building. The lights blinked out, and the room was plunged into darkness.
Charmaine’s heart raced, her reflexes taking over. Without thinking, she reached out and grabbed the closest thing to her–Emyr.
Before she could even call out for Tad, she found herself pressed against Emyr’s chest. He looked down, noticing her trembling in the dim moonlight. Her wide eyes were full of uncertainty, and her lips quivered slightly in the stillness.
She was the tough one. The quick–witted, sharp–tongued woman who never backed down. But now, she was clutching him like a frightened animal, vulnerable and unguarded.

“That was just a coincidence!” Charmaine shot back, her voice a little too quick.
“A coincidence?” Emyr raised an eyebrow, his tone skeptical. “Then why are you holding on to me?”

Charmaine gritted her teeth, trying to steady herself. “The lights always go out before the bad stuff happens to the rich guy if we’re in a story. I’m just making sure you’re safe. Understand?”
“Sure,” Emyr replied with a knowing grin. “But you might want to watch your hands next time. They’re shaking.”
Charmaine was a little miffed.
Charmaine couldn’t shake the thought that all the sensation in Emyr’s legs must have wandered somewhere else entirely.
