Chapter 19 Take Your Clothes Off
Compared to Lucas‘ calmness, Andrew was so stunned that he almost tripped over himself.
What did I just see? Is Ms. Rivers flirting with Mr. Hawthorne?

But then, looking at Sloane’s tiny, bean–sprout–like figure, he felt a bit less human. She was still just an 18 years old kid.
What a sin!
“Not bad, you’re recovering well.” After looking long enough, Sloane let go of him and said, “In that case, I’ll start giving you acupuncture and detox today.”
Sloane spread the needles out on the table. Andrew looked at the dozens of needles, varying in length, and immediately felt his scalp tingle.
Lucas glanced at the needles, his expression unchanged. He nodded slightly. “What do you need me to do?”
“Take your clothes off and lie down.”
Sloane’s words were blunt, and Andrew didn’t know what to say anymore.
But over there, Lucas had already stood up from his wheelchair, starting to unbutton his shirt. His movements were smooth, without a hint of hesitation or awkwardness.
Andrew quickly swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Since the person involved had no objections, there was no reason for him to intervene.
Seeing Lucas already taking off his outer pants, ready to remove his undergarments,
Sloane turned her head just in time. She blinked and watched Lucas‘ movements, yet showed no signs of embarrassment or awkwardness. Unhurriedly, she said, “You don’t need to take this off.”
She thought she was quite humane, at least leaving Lucas some dignity.
Upon hearing this, Lucas paused, then lightly grunted in acknowledgment before stopping the action of removing his clothes. He kept his undergarments on and neatly lay down on the bed, waiting quietly for Sloane to begin the acupuncture. Sloane turned back after preparing the needles and found herself facing a captivating scene.
Lucas lay on the bed, his back muscles clearly defined, strong yet smooth, exuding a sense of power.
His waist appeared exceptionally slender, yet radiated a quiet strength. Moving downward, his firm, rounded hips were visible under the clothing, showing the perfect curve. His long, toned legs were casually stretched out, making the whole scene even more casually seductive.
For a moment, Sloane was lost in thought, wondering how the women in Stonebridge, who were always eager to be close to him, would have reacted. They’d probably want to pounce on him.
She quickly snapped back to reality, pushing those distracting the ts aside. She walked to the bedside and placed the
disinfected needles beside her.
Leaning slightly forward, her delicate fingers gently rested on Lucas‘ back. She pressed on a few key acupoints, speaking softly, “Your body’s toxins have accumulated for too long, causing some stagnation in your blood circulation. I’ll be using the acupuncture to clear it. The first session will hurt.”
Lucas let out a soft, steady “Mm,” his voice low and composed, “Go ahead, I can handle it.”
Compared to the pain he endured every night before, this little bit of pain was
Sloane’s gaze sharpened, and she fully focused on the upcoming acupuncture.
As the needles were inserted, Lucas‘ back muscles tensed slightly, but he remained silent, enduring the sharp sting
Sloane’s technique was skilled, one needle after another went into the acupoints, methodically. Before long, Lucas‘ back was covered with needles.

Andrew stood by, his forehead sweating with anxiety. His fists were clenched tightly, his eyes fixed on Sloane’s every move, not daring to breathe loudly.
He was worried Lucas wouldn’t be able to withstand the pain and was also doubtful about Sloane’s medical skills. After all, she was only 18, and he wondered if she could truly cure Lucas‘ condition.
