“Len, stogebring nale” Max interrupted.
Ilearly didn’t accept this and continued glaring at Paisley as if she were his enemy. At that moment, Paisley was too tired to argue with him. She had just been snaked in the rain, and her wet clothes chung uncomfortably to her skin.
With so many men suddenly appearing in her house, she felt uneasy. Without saying anything, she walked over to Max and, disregarding all medical protocols, started pulling the silver needles out of his leg one by one.
She pulled hard, and in some spots, blood spurted out after the needles were removed.

“What are you doing?” Len shouted angrily, but since she was a woman and he had already been warned, he could only clench his fists a

After removing all the needles, Paisley turned to Max. “Alright, you
Normally, given the severity of his leg condition, he should have rested for forty minutes after the treatment. But Paisley had no patience to let him stay another minute in ber house.
Max understood the situation and realized it was inconvenient for them to stay. He tried to stand up and leave. Leo quickly moved to help him, but To everyone’s surprise, he stood up on his own
Len was stunned and could hardly believe what he saw. In the past, whenever Max’s leg acted up, the pain was so intense that he couldn’t even get
Max himself was equally shocked. When the needles were in, he had felt warmth spreading through his body, like the blood in his leg was boiling Although there was still some dull pain, it no longer restricted his movement.
He looked at Paisley in astonishment. “How can I thank you, mis? Can I pay you!”
Forget it, no need, Paisley said with a dismissive wave of her hand. “Just take your people and leave as soon as possible.”
It had been pure coincidence that she encountered him today, Worried she might have hit him, she had treated him. She had no intention of involving herself further.
Kralizing how rude he had been earlier, Leo awkwardly bowed deeply to Paisley. “I’m sorry. I was wrong before. Please forgive me. He didn’t expert Paisley could actually treat Max.
Paisley didn’t feel the need to forgive him. After today, she and this man wouldn’t cross paths again.
“I can’t completely cure y
cure your leg, just alleviate the pain for now. It’ll relapse later, so you n
need to take care of in
she said.
Max nodded politely, not looking too disappointed. He knew his leg’s condition well. Every relapse felt like thousands of ants gnawing at his bones. Now, simply being able to move was already a huge relief.
“I live next door and will be in Harrowfell for a while. If you need help, feel free to come by,” he said.
Paisley hadn’t expected this man to be the owner of the villa next door, the one from Montera
Finally, Max and his group left Paisley’s villa.
Maria watched them leave and said uneasily, “Palsy, I don’t know why, but they don’t seem like good people to me.
Paisley didn’t know what to make of them either. “Let’s just mind our own business and stay away from them in the future.
Maria nodded, though she was a bit disappointed. With these big men as neighbors, it seemed she wouldn’t have anyone to chat with.
The next day was Millie’s birthday party at Serena’s kindergarten Paisley took Serena to a garden–style restaurant at the address Vivian had given

Millie’s birthday party was in an indoor pavilion at the south corner of the hall. A wooden long table sat in the middle, with a stream running through its center. Fish swam in the water, and beautiful dishes floated gracefully along the current.
Paisley was pleasantly surprised. She hadn’t expected Vivian to have such exquisite taste.
Paisley and Serena arrived at the time Vivian suggested, but when they got there, the party had already started for a while. All the parents and children had already chosen their seats, and only the two seats at the very end, in the corner, were left.
Paisley didn’t think too much about it, taking Serena by the hand and walking to the last main seat, where Millie and her mom were sitting.
Serena personally handed the gift to Millie, speaking in a sweet, babyish voice. “This is for you, happy birthday.”
It was Serena’s first time giving a birthday gift to someone else, and since she had picked it out herself, she was both excited and eager to see Millie’s reaction when she opened it
