Rosalynn observed her with a smile and applauded. “Excellent. Keep going.”
It almost felt Like Rosalynn was coaxing a child.

“Deanna, do you happen to Love ice cream? It’s better to cut down on it,” Rosalynn suggested.

“Rosalynn, don’t try to act clever in front of me. Do you really think you’re a doctor?”
Rosalynn raised an eyebrow and retrieved silver needles from her bracelet. “I did study traditional
medicine. I can help alleviate your pain.”
Deanna widened her eyes, her gaze fixed on the bracelet adorning Rosalynn’s wrist. She was both
curious and surprised.
“Does your bracelet have some sort of mechanism?”
A smile graced Rosalynn’s face as she replied, “Lift up your clothes.”
Taken aback, Deanna glanced at the silver needles in Rosalynn’s hand and hastily covered her body,
making sure to keep herself well-hidden.
“I won’t. What if you do something harmful to me?”
Rosalynn arched an eyebrow. “Why would I do something harmful to you?”
“Because I’ve treated you poorly!” Deanna blurted out, revealing her concern.

Rosalynn acknowledged with a nod. “You seem to have a clear perception of yourself.”
Deanna was left speechless, her glare fixed upon Rosalynn in silence.
Sensing her reluctance, Rosalynn decided not to press the matter and returned the silver needles to
her bracelet. “If you don’t believe me, then let’s forget it. I’11 get going.”
If Deanna weren’t her husband’s sister, Rosalynn wouldn’t have bothered at all.
“Wait a minute,” Deanna hastily interjected.
Rosalynn faltered, curious about Deanna’s sudden change of heart. “What is it?”
Deanna’s eyes sparkled with a hint of embarrassment as she spoke. “I’m Brian’s sister. I believe you
wouldn’t dare to harm me. I’ll allow you to perform acupuncture on me.”
