Did he really faint during injection? Or was the nurse just kidding?

Nana looked at Corbin with wide eyes and saw that his face was pale, and his eyebrows were tightly knitted. He seemed to be resistant and utterly nervous.

Upon her observation, he seemed like he would actually faint.

“Oh my goodness. You’re a tough and masculine individual, but you’re afraid of tiny needles?”

Nana couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Excuse me? Can’t men faint at the sight of needles?” Corbin’s cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

A few moments later, Nana felt odd about something the nurse had said.

Wait a minute…
