Chapter 764: After careful deliberation, the military opted for the safest treatment method instead of a more invasive procedure that might compromise Carson's long-term functionality.
The nurse froze when she saw Corrine.
"Is there a problem?" Corrine asked, noticing the nurse's scrutinizing gaze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaught off guard by Corrine's striking eyes, the nurse felt her heart skip a beat. A faint blush crept onto her cheeks, and she quickly lowered her gaze to hide her embarrassment.
The hospital had admitted a special patient the previous night, leaving the doctors without a solution. However, Matthew had claimed to have a solution and brought in an expert for the treatment.
When people heard the word "expert," they often pictured an elderly figure with silver hair and a wealth of experience etched into their features. No one expected the expert to be a woman of breathtaking beauty.
“I just... didn't expect you to look like this," the nurse murmured after a moment's hesitation. Corrine arched an eyebrow but said nothing. She simply pushed open the ward door and stepped inside. The patient stood by the window, lost in thought. From Corrine's vantage point, she could see that his right shoulder slumped slightly lower than his left, creating a noticeable imbalance.

Her slender fingers pressed against his shoulder with just the right amount of force. With her other hand, she gently lifted his right arm and moved it slightly.
"This might hurt a bit. Bear with it,” Corrine said, a barely perceptible furrow appearing between her brows.
A crisp crack echoed in the room as Carson's shoulder blade shifted back into place. Corrine's hand traced lightly along the area, checking for further misalignment.
However, the fracture in his collarbone was more complicated. It would require a metal pin-for stabilization-though thankfully, it wouldn't significantly impact his future mobility.
