Chapter 1031

In the evening, the three little ones and Adriana returned home leisurely.

It was only at that moment the duo with the secret plan finally ceased their conversation.

After dinner, Neera, holding a silver needle box, went next door to find Jean.

“You're here? I just finished sorting out my emails and was about to come and see you.”

Seeing her approach him, Jean smiled and pulled her to his side.

Neera casually waved the needle box in her hand toward him. “I'm here to treat you.”

Jean couldn't help but chuckle. “I'm fine now. Why do I suddenly need to be pricked again? Although I hate toadmit it, some of the points you pierce really do hurt.”

Neera said earnestly, “If you're feeling aches and pains, it means your body hasn't fully recovered yet. I shouldhave treated you earlier, but I've been too busy recently. You've been taking medicine to manage, and yourcondition isn't too bad, which is why it's been delayed until today.”

As she spoke, she let out a sigh, tinged with a hint of guilt.

“These days, you've been constantly on the move with me and did not receive proper rest, especially afterreturning to the country. You've had no peace, dealing with a mountain of matters. I worry that your body can'ttake it. Even though you're not showing symptoms now, we need to prevent them in advance. Please bear with it.Once you're in better shape, I won't prick you with needles anymore.”

Jean knew that she had always been concerned about his health, which warmed his heart.

“All right. Whatever you say, I'll listen. Whatever you ask me to do, I'll do.”

What resistance could he possibly have against her? He could only obey.

At that moment, he led her to the bedroom.

During the treatment, Neera was constantly thinking about what he had just said downstairs, always concernedabout his feelings.

“How does this feel? What about here? Is it sore, or does it hurt? And over here, does it feel swollen...”

Jean tilted his head, his voice warm and soothing. “You don't need to be so nervous. It was just a comment. Itdoesn't hurt that much anymore.”

Seeing Neera staring at him with a puzzled look, he explained with a smile, “Truly, at the very beginning, it wasreally painful. But gradually, it became much more manageable. This time, I clearly feel that it isn't as painful asbefore. It must be the medicine you prescribed for me. It's very effective.”

Neera thought about it and felt his words made sense.

While he was abroad, the servants catered to his every need, ensuring he was well-fed and well-cared for.Medication was also constantly administered to maintain his physical stability.

Despite the previous torment from Karl and Thora, his body, which he had painstakingly nurtured back to health,was once again worn down.

However, nurturing it had led to some improvements lately.

An hour later, the treatment was done.

After removing the needles, Neera gave Jean a new medicine.

“This medicine is different from what you've taken before. Previously, you had to take it three times a day, butwith this one, once a day will suffice.”

Jean was somewhat surprised. “Has the dosage been reduced? Or has the medication's composition changed?”

“The composition of the medicine has changed, and its potency has significantly increased. This is my latestdevelopment. When I previously visited the World Medical Alliance, I took the opportunity to look up someinformation related to your condition. Since returning, I've been researching a medicine that would be morebeneficial for your recovery. This time, the development of the medicine was more challenging than before. I wasworried about not getting results, so I didn't mention it in advance. It's only now that I've succeeded.”

After hearing that, Jean was momentarily at a loss for words. He was consumed by a mix of emotions, feelingutterly moved.

During this period, he noticed just how busy the young lady was.

Even so, she never forgot about him, still considering his needs.

With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

“Go ahead and take it. In theory, this medicine is very effective, but I can't be certain about its actual efficacy.

We'll have to see how it works for you over time.”

With a slight smile, Jean didn't hesitate at all and swallowed a pill with a sip of water.

“I trust you. There won't be any issues with the medicine you've developed.”

Neera chuckled. “You trust me so much, huh? You didn't even check before popping it into your mouth. What if Igave you bad medicine?”

Jean looked deeply into her eyes, his affection as deep as the ocean. He said confidently, “Then I am willing. Iwould consume as long as it's from you, even if it's poison.”

Neera felt a sweet sensation in her heart as she listened, thinking to herself, This man is really something, alwaysflirting with me.

She cleared her throat and said crisply, “What nonsense are you spouting? I can't bear to see you suffer anymore.” novelbin

After a while of their lovey-dovey exchange, Jean finally asked, “Do I need a medicinal bath?”

It was only then Neera suddenly remembered.

“Yes. I was so engrossed in our conversation that I almost forgot. Go ahead. I've prepared all the medicinalmaterials for you. Just add some hot water, and it'll be ready.”

With a faint smile, Jean stood up, held her hand, and entered the bathroom with her.

“What... What are you doing?” Neera asked in surprise.

With a swift motion, Jean closed the bathroom door behind him. With an air of confidence, he responded, “Helpme undress. I don't have the strength.”

Neera's face turned red instantly, but seeing him leaning lazily against the tile wall, she found herself unable toutter a word of refusal.

In the end, she resignedly added some more hot water for him.

Just as she was about to test the water, suddenly, the man embraced her from behind, his breath brushing past theback of her ear.

“Before we proceed, how about you make up for what you owe me from this afternoon?”

After he finished speaking, his kiss landed gently on her ear.

Neera felt her whole body itch from the kisses. Her ears burning hot, she couldn't help but laugh as she dodgedaway.

“Hey, stop messing around. Won't you feel discomfort...”
