His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 2081

The two recognized each other and exclaimed the same line almost simultaneously. Austin only knew he was supposed to treat a young woman, but he did not know it would be Anastasia.

Meanwhile, Anastasia recognized him at first glance as the “miracle doctor” who used to treat her. Maria had engaged his services back then but was proven to be a conman.

Anastasia scrambled to the side and exclaimed, “No, you’re not a doctor! You’re a conman, and I don’t want you to treat me!”

“I…” Austin was embarrassed.

‘She’s right. I was just like a conman before this. I cured plenty of patients, but I wasn’t a good doctor. I cared too much about fame then.’

“Well, I’m no longer a conman, okay? I’m the only person who can treat you,” Austin said patiently.

Anastasia frowned, unconvinced. “I don’t believe you! I don’t need your help!”

“Listen to me, okay?” Austin raised his voice, trying to calm her down as he held her shoulders. “Alex was the one who asked me to treat you. It’s also what Lily wants!”

Anastasia calmed down a little when she heard those names. Puzzled, she widened her eyes and asked, “Alex and Lily?”

Austin nodded. “That’s right! They have important matters to tend to, so they can’t come to see you. If not, I wouldn’t mind if you chose Lily to treat you.”

“I…” Anastasia hesitated. Although she was suspicious, she felt he sounded pretty sincere.

The person who led Austin there approached, saying, “It’s true, Ms. Rollins. He’s the expert Mr. Russell hired to treat you.”

Anastasia was convinced. She knew Alexander’s men would not lie. Still, she asked tentatively, “Are you sure you can cure me?”

Although her condition was not critical, she felt highly uncomfortable. She sometimes felt nauseous or fell into a stupor. Worse, she could not leave the ward because the virus was contagious. She knew how dangerous it would be if she left.

“I’ve cured many people,” Austin explained, “including those in worse conditions than you. But I need you to do one thing for me.”

Anastasia perked up when she heard he had helped many patients. She asked, “What is it?”

“I’ll start with an acupuncture treatment, so you must bear with it. Also, you must trust me, okay?” Austin knew he could not help her if she did not trust him or gave up halfway due to pain.
