A human anatomy model in the corner caught Timothy's eye. A meridian chart was pinned behind it. The model had numerous circles and dots on it with densely written notes. There were also several silver needles stuck into it. Timothy was surprised to see this. "Are you studying acupuncture, Mr. Barton Senior?"Marshall chuckled and replied, "Yes, I come from a long line of alternative medicine practitioners, so studying medicine runs in the family. Our ancestors were experts in ancient acupuncture techniques, but by this generation, those skills have become a thing of the past and are mostly forgotten. None of the younger members of my family know much about acupuncture anymore."Timothy squinted slightly and observed the silver needles stuck in the model. Then, he smiled faintly. "This is the Orphic Octo Technique, but it's incomplete. Only the first three needles are correct, and many of the meridian positions are wrong."Marshall's eyes widened, and his body jolted reflexively i
Isabelle's expression became wary. "What do you want to tell me?"The mischievous grin on Timothy's face caused a sense of apprehension to arise within her. She exclaimed, "Grandpa, you're not going to send me to this scoundrel's bed, are you?"She was on the verge of tears. To the outside world, she was a cool and unfriendly woman one could only dream of or pine after. But in front of Marshall, she was just a young lady who dared not go against his word.Marshall sighed, clearly exasperated. "What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of person did you take me for?""Then, what do you want from me?" Isabelle asked, still wary.Marshall chuckled and said, "Well, Mr. Yeager and I had a small chat about that. You're going to serve as his personal maid for half a month.""What?" Isabelle screamed in outrage. She felt dizzy and almost passed out. Being Timothy's personal maid and taking care of him was worse than death—this was outright degradation!"No way! I won't do it! It's
Timothy smirked and said, "Didn't you ask me to demonstrate? I'll use you as a test subject.""In your dreams!" Isabelle retorted.Timothy shook his head and explained calmly, "You're suffering from an imbalance of the energy within your body. That's why you have dizziness and irregular periods. If I'm not mistaken, you haven't had your period in three months. You also frequently experience severe abdominal pain. "Sometimes your period doesn't come when it should, and in other times, you have unexpected spotting even when it isn't your menstrual cycle."Timothy paused and looked at Isabelle with a grin. "Am I wrong?"Isabelle was stunned. She stared at Timothy in disbelief and pointed a trembling finger at him. "How... How do you know that?"Timothy shrugged. Before Isabelle could respond, he stepped forward and moved behind her. With one swift movement, he lightly tapped two meridian points on her body. In an instant, Isabelle froze and became unable to move.She stared at Tim
Marshall watched intently, studying every change in the trajectory of the silver needles while marveling at the intricacy and beauty of it all. The technique was mysterious yet utterly captivating.Meanwhile, Isabelle, who was lying on the bed, slowly closed her eyes. It was simply too comfortable. She felt like she was floating in a warm ocean, and all the impurities in her body seemed to be expelled. Wisps of mysterious essence seemed to be absorbed into every one of her pores. The sensation was nothing short of magical.After what seemed like an eternity, Timothy finally stopped and let out a soft breath. The Orphic Octo Technique was one of the most transcendent acupuncture techniques. It took a lot of energy and concentration to administer it.Beside him, Marshall murmured, "You're a genius… A genius doctor!"In the next moment, he fell to his knees with a loud thud as tears streamed down his face. "Mr. Yeager, you are truly a genius doctor! I can now die without regrets after
Timothy smirked mischievously as he looked at Isabelle, who was still lying on the bed. He asked, "How do you feel?""I feel... so good," Isabelle murmured softly. As soon as the words left her lips, a blush crept onto her face and then her neck. Her face was so red that she resembled a tomato. She quickly covered her face, too embarrassed to look at Timothy.How could she have said something so shameless?Timothy laughed heartily. "Feels good, huh? It seems you want more!"Without warning, he raised his hand and smacked her on the buttocks again. Isabelle let out another involuntary moan and writhed around."Do you realize your mistake now?" Timothy asked."I... I don't!" she replied defiantly.Several loud smacks rang out. Timothy slapped her butt a few more times. With each slap, Isabelle's body jolted reflexively."I'll ask again—do you know that you were in the wrong?" Timothy demanded coldly.Isabelle tried to catch her breath weakly. She looked at him with teary eyes an
"I understand. I'll serve Mr. Yeager well," Isabelle said as she gracefully walked over to Timothy. She placed her hand on his shoulder, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she asked smilingly, "Mr. Yeager, what would you like me to do?"Timothy felt a shiver run down his spine, and goosebumps rose all over him. His instincts told him that something was off. If Isabelle had been glaring at him resentfully, he would've understood. Given her odd behavior, she must have some kind of a plan in mind.However, Timothy wasn't the type to back down easily. He didn't resist and went along with Isabelle's flirty move. He suddenly pulled her into his arms and grinned cheekily while asking, "Well, what can you do?"Isabelle's body stiffened as Timothy's hand wrapped itself around her slender, soft waist. A tingling sensation washed over her entire body. Flustered, she took a step back hurriedly. Timothy flashed her a wicked grin. "What's wrong, Ms. Barton? Why stop? Keep going."Isabelle bared h
Joseph sighed softly from the side and said, "Don't dwell on it too much, Cora. Evil people will always get their retribution in some way. That guy will pay for his misdeed someday."Timothy raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. "Mom, Dad, the scoundrel who hit Tiana is already dead. So, don't be hung up about him anymore.""He's dead?" Joseph and Cora were shocked. Cora asked, "How do you know that? Have you found out who he was?"Timothy nodded. "The one who hit Tiana was the heir of the Reginald family, Kyle Reginald. Last night, a killer broke into the Reginald family and killed him."Joseph and Cora exchanged a glance. After a moment of shock, their expressions turned to one of relief and satisfaction.Joseph's body shook with joy as he laughed heartily. "Good! He deserved it! The heavens saw it fit to punish that beast! Death is a fitting end for him!"Cora was equally emotional, but beside them, Tiana frowned. She had a feeling that something didn't quite add up.How di
A voice called out from beside the woman. "Susan, what are you looking at?"Susan turned her head, looking somewhat dazed. After a moment of silence, she replied, "Jason, I saw someone... He looked like Timothy Yeager."Jason's expression soured immediately. "What's going on with you? Yesterday, you mentioned him. Now, you're bringing him up again. Do you still have feelings for him?"Susan quickly shook her head. "No, of course not! We broke up so long ago, how could I still have feelings for him? I just saw someone who kind of looked like him, and that's all."Jason stared into Susan's eyes. With a frown, he questioned coldly, "So, where is this person who looks like Timothy? Where is he?"Susan pointed hesitantly at the Rolls-Royce driving away. "I think... he got into that car."Jason rubbed his eyes and stared at the back of the Rolls-Royce for a long time before bursting into laughter. Tears formed at the corners of his eyes due to how hard he was laughing."Susan, did you
