Chapter 171: Given The Circumstances

Aaron is half-naked, lying face down on his bed with silver needles sticking out of his back.

He is distraught at Katrina, refusing to answer his call. It doesn't help when William rubs salt on his wounds with his sarcastic remarks.

There's no place for Aaron to vent his anger. He can only scold William instead. "This is none of your business! Focus on your job!"

"Yeah." William frowns in displeasure at being used as a punching bag. He pricks one of Aaron's acupuncture points harshly.

"Ah!" Aaron fails to restrain the pain and shouts, "William! Can't you be professional?"

William says slowly, "Grumpy, man! Weren't you taught not to offend your doctor? Especially the doctor treating you!"

William is a very vindictive doctor. But despite his retaliation, he doesn't dare go too far. When Aaron gasps, he pulls out the needle carefully. If he keeps this up, he won't have a job by tomorrow.
