Chapter: 126
Norah insisted, “Allow me to assess it first."
Stepping out from Devonte's room, Norah entered the living room to find Kason on the sofa. Dressed in an army green tank top, the snug material outlined his muscular physique, accentuating his formidable presence.
Norah took a seat beside him on the couch. “Show me your hand, please."
Kason held out his hand, revealing its rough, callused texture. Norah gently grasped his wrist, her touch delicate against his hardened skin.
The stark contrast between Kason's large, rugged hand and Norah's smaller, softer one was striking.
When Norah's hands made contact with Kason's, a shiver coursed through him. Feeling slightly bashful, Kason found himself looking away involuntarily.
Norah asked, “Well, it's clear you've sustained more injuries than just to your hand. You've got internal issues, too. Have you not considered a thorough medical check-up?"
With a furrowed brow, Norah added, "And let's not even start on your tendon problem. Your knees must give you trouble when the weather changes, am I right?"
"Yes," Kason admitted, acknowledging her accuracy. “It's not a major issue most days, so I've never sought medical attention."
“You really ought to consult a physician soon. With already one ill family member, do you wish to be bedridden alongside your grandfather?"
Norah half-jokingly cautioned him, “Had it not been for me, would you have waited until mobility became an issue before seeking treatment?"
Kason conceded with a nod.
Norah sighed and said, "Lucky for you, our paths crossed."
Norah was aware that Kason's condition would deteriorate with time.
Delaying treatment meant that, even with future surgery, he risked losing his mobility.
“Well, considering you're the Supernatural Doctor, handling my little ailment should be effortless for you." Kason wasn't overstating.
Given the Supernatural Doctor's global fame for resolving numerous challenging cases, he was confident in Norah's ability to treat him.
Kason considered himself fortunate to be under the care of the Supernatural Doctor. He glanced downward, observing Norah as she meticulously inspected his body, feeling somewhat bashful.
It dawned on him that they were very close, allowing him to detect Norah's scent. Though he couldn't identify the perfume, it intrigued him deeply.
Understanding that her unique ability wouldn't remedy his issue, Norah pulled back her hands. "You knew I was working at Silver Boulder Private Hospital, right? Make an appointment for surgery, and I'll assist in reattaching your tendons. You must be evaluated at the hospital for any internal problems. The medical team there will guide you on the next steps."
Her tone was matter-of-fact as if tendon repair was no more challenging than treating a minor ailment.
“Thank you, Norah."
“No need to thank me. Just don't forget the consultation fee."
Kason responded with a grin and said, “Of course."
