As for how long he can live, it still depends on his own fortune.

After all, a person's lifespan is related to their mentality.

If one has a good mentality, living to a hundred years old may not be a problem. If one is negative and pessimistic, it will naturally worsen their condition.

Bradley noticed that Freya didn't look too well and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

Freya didn't answer but signaled with her eyes that they would talk about it later.

Then she soothed the old master, saying, "Dad's condition has stabilized. He still needs to rest more. Maintaining a good mentality is the key to a long life."

"Freya, you've worked hard," the old master said with a hearty laugh.

Freya said it was her duty, told the old master to rest well, and then went upstairs with Bradley to discuss the old master's illness.

Although there was a special medicine that controlled the old master's condition of organ failure, it only prevented the disease from worsening and couldn't repair his damaged liver.

In other words, the disease was still there, just controlled by the medicine.

After entering the room, Freya told Bradley about the situation. Finally, she looked a bit solemn. "Every special medicine has side effects. The old master's condition was good before, but recently he has been overly energetic, which is not a good sign."

Elderly people need enough sleep to recuperate and maintain good health.

The old master was sleepy and lacked energy some time ago, but recently his sleeping time has been getting shorter and shorter.

Once or twice is fine, but if this continues, his body won't get enough rest, and it will definitely have the opposite effect.

Bradley frowned and said, "Then is there no way to control it and help him fall asleep?"

Freya shook her head. "There are ways, but they are all drugs with strong side effects, and the old master's body can't take it anymore."

Upon hearing this, Bradley's face turned ugly.

Previously, Freya had been affected by the snake poison. For a long time, there were no obvious side effects. It was only recently that he learned that she had been suffering from vertigo.

Now the old master was also showing reactions. He was in surprisingly good spirits. According to the butler, the old master slept for no more than four hours a day.

Even a young person couldn't stand it if it continued like this, let alone an elderly person.

"I'll try acupuncture these few days to see if it can help with sleep. If it works, I'll teach the acupuncture method to other doctors," Freya comforted him when she saw the man's serious expression.

Bradley hummed in agreement. "Okay, but you must ensure that you can do it within your ability before performing the acupuncture."

Others might think that acupuncture is just inserting needles into the acupoints, but they don't know that acupuncture therapy requires a high degree of concentration and the right depth when inserting the silver needles.

This not only tests the acupuncturist's skills, but also because the acupuncture process takes some time, the acupuncturist will also feel mentally exhausted.

Freya was now affected by the side effects of the snake poison antidote. If she was too tired, she would experience vertigo. Bradley had to ensure Freya's physical condition first before allowing her to treat the old master.

"Don't worry. I'm in a good enough state these days to perform the acupuncture," Freya understood the man's concern. She smiled and leaned close to his face, rubbing his nose. "I'm hungry. I want to eat something, then rest for a while, and perform the acupuncture later."

"Okay."

Bradley always fulfilled her requests. When he heard that she was hungry, he quickly stood up and went to prepare food.

As soon as he left, Freya lay down on the sofa. After yawning several times, she closed her eyes.

Actually, she had lied.

She didn't sleep well last night, and she was in a bad state now. Although the feeling of vertigo wasn't as strong as before, it still made her very uncomfortable.

Although she had been pretending to be okay, the feeling of being light-headed made her feel as if this body didn't belong to her.

She had been holding on just now, but now she couldn't take it anymore, so she found an excuse to let Bradley leave first.

Otherwise, if he knew she wasn't feeling well, with Bradley's temper, he definitely wouldn't let her perform acupuncture on the old master. He might even immediately call someone to examine her.

She knew her own situation well. It was difficult to control with medicine, and now acupuncture could only barely suppress it. It would take one to two weeks to recover.

She slept in a daze. Because the feeling of a heavy head was strong, and she would feel dizzy and even have a strong sense of nausea when she turned her head, Freya could only sleep in one position.

As a result, when she woke up, her entire neck was sore.

While Bradley wasn't back yet, Freya got up and gave herself an acupuncture treatment. It could only relieve the discomfort in her neck, but it couldn't cure the vertigo.

Even as she got up, a overwhelming feeling of vertigo hit her, making her stomach churn. Soon she leaned against her chest and vomited violently.

But in the end, she didn't vomit anything up, just some acid water.

At this time, there were footsteps outside.

It was Bradley coming back.

To keep the man from worrying, Freya quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe her mouth and lay back on the bed.

Bradley had a habit. When Freya was sleeping, he never woke her up immediately. Instead, he would quietly stay by her side until she woke up on her own.

This time was no exception.

He placed the food on the tea table, sat by the bed, and gently stroked Freya's face with his hand.

"You said you were hungry, but you fell asleep first. Little fool, what should I do with you?" He leaned over and kissed her between the eyebrows.

Freya's long eyelashes fluttered a few times.

After Bradley's kiss, he lay down on his side, wrapped his strong arm around her slender waist, and held her small body tightly in his arms.

"Go to sleep. When you wake up, I'll make another meal for you."

He also closed his eyes and enjoyed this moment of peace.

Freya nestled in his arms and could clearly hear his strong heartbeat, as well as the warmth and the faint mint fragrance emanating from his body.

She didn't know if it was the mint that had the effect of refreshing her mind or if it was because the man was by her side. Freya felt as if the tense string in her brain suddenly snapped, and she didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.

She shrank further into his arms and listened to his heartbeat, feeling a great sense of security.

Slowly, she fell into a deep sleep.

They slept soundly, hugging each other tightly as if there were only the two of them in the whole world.

Even when Blue Book came to report on work and knocked on the door a few times, there was no response.

Bradley was always alert and could detect any slightest movement. Now that no one came to open the door, Blue Book felt a vague sense of unease.

Taking the risk of angering Bradley, he wanted to open the door and check the situation, only to find that the door wasn't closed.

Blue Book gently pushed the door open and saw the two of them hugging each other, as well as the expression on Bradley's face signaling him to leave. His face immediately turned red, and he quickly backed out.
