"Do you want me to take you to a healer?" Ruby asked, her brows raised.
"No, no, wife... it's a small thing... I don't want to waste money," Julian quickly shook his head, his fingers tightening around the blanket. He was scared inside, worried that if a healer checked him, they might see through his act.

Julian immediately looked away, avoiding her gaze. His fingers fidgeted slightly.
Before she could question him further, a loud knock sounded from outside the door.
"Wife!!" Milo's voice came through, urgent and loud.
