A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 808

After asking the question.

Laura Forrest quickly realized.

She hastily said, "Oh, I saw it in your pulse. What exactly is the problem?"

"For a long time, have you often felt irritable, always wanting to lose your temper, feeling unsatisfied with everyone, along with poor skin, dark pores, and lethargy at night with quite severe insomnia?"

"Yes, yes, all the symptoms are accurate, Secretary General Carter, you're truly amazing."

Laura Forrest said in amazement.

Dirk Carter nodded solemnly.

He said, "Your endocrine system is already quite disordered. Now, all your symptoms are superficial. If not adjusted in time, once the endocrine system completely collapses, your menopause will arrive early."

"How early will it be?"

Laura Forrest hurriedly asked.

Dirk Carter pretended to ponder for a moment.

He said, "Probably one to two years, maybe even less than a year if it's fast."

For a woman.

Early menopause is a terrifying thing.

After all, it's a critical point. Once menopause arrives, aging accelerates quickly.

No one wants to see that.

Laura Forrest's face showed fear.

Her eyes lost focus for a long time before she tentatively asked, "The medicine bottle you just gave me..."

"Oh, are you referring to this?"

Dirk Carter took it out again.

He said, "This is the Uterine Care Pill I personally formulated, specifically for your condition. As long as you take it regularly, it will delay the onset of menopause, but it's not enough to completely cure it."

"What else? Secretary General Carter, I'll pay whatever it takes for my treatment."

Laura Forrest immediately said.

Dirk Carter shook his head and said, "It's not about the money. It's about treating both internally and externally. The Uterine Care Pill treats the inside, and massages along with acupuncture are needed externally. This is a unique skill of our Carter family, and with the combination, it can be cured in two to three months at most."

"Really? That's wonderful, Secretary General Carter, could I trouble you…"

Laura Forrest was so excited.

She stood up.

The two large masses on her upper body couldn't help but tremble as well.

She quickly realized she had lost her composure.

She sat back down and earnestly said, "Secretary General Carter, could you help treat me?"

"County Head Forrest, why say that? Since I've come to you voluntarily, it obviously means I'm willing to help you."

"When can we start?"

"Uh… let's see, I didn't bring anything with me today and didn't expect County Head Forrest to be so eager. Come to my office during lunchtime, and I'll help you with the treatment. Once a month is enough."

It was like finding a source of water in a dry desert.

Laura Forrest's eyes brightened again.

She grasped Dirk Carter's hand and excitedly said, "Secretary General Carter, thank you so much, really, thank you…"

"County Head Forrest, we're colleagues, no need for polite words, it's just a small effort."

Dirk Carter showed a nonchalant face.

But inside, he was overjoyed.

He originally thought winning over Laura Forrest would be a bit challenging.

Unexpectedly, it went much more smoothly than anticipated.

It only shows that there isn't a woman in the world who doesn't love beauty or who allows herself to age quickly.

After returning to the office.

Dirk Carter recounted everything in detail to Arlo Yarbrough.

Seeing Dirk Carter laugh heartily, Arlo Yarbrough asked, "What's so funny? Endocrine disorder just needs some adjustment. Also, do you really know her menopause is one or two years away?"

"I made it up. She's very healthy."

Dirk Carter said.

Arlo Yarbrough was startled.

He asked, "Made it up? Then how did you know she seldom has sex?"

"Come on, her husband is in Veridia City, she's in Helios County, living apart, and wasn't I the director of the municipal government office too? Time is always tight. How could they have the time to see each other?"

"Then… how did you know she feels pleasure while walking?"

Arlo Yarbrough scratched his head and asked.

Dirk Carter chuckled.

He said, "Thirty like a wolf, forty like a tiger; no woman escapes this saying. With so little sex, she definitely has desires usually. Plus, her thighs are quite thick, causing more friction when walking, naturally leading to slight pleasure. If you don't believe me, just ask your Elaine Nolan."

"And what about feeling irritable and wanting to lose temper all the time?"

Arlo Yarbrough continued to ask.

Dirk Carter grinned widely and said, "Who in the system doesn't have these symptoms? As leaders, with so much to deal with every day, who isn't irritable, who doesn't want to vent?"

Poor skin, dark pores.

These were visible to Dirk Carter's naked eye.

Moreover, prolonged lack of sexual activity does lead to such symptoms.

As for feeling lethargic and having insomnia at night, that's also a common issue in the system, not uncommon at all.

After hearing Dirk Carter's explanation.

Arlo Yarbrough gasped and said, "What you're doing isn't diagnosing by pulse; you're basically deducing. You could scare someone to death even if they weren't sick with that. It's a relief you didn't go into medicine, or you'd be a quack."

"Special circumstances require special treatment. Otherwise, how would I win her over?"

Dirk Carter rolled his eyes and said.

Arlo Yarbrough swallowed and asked, "Then what's in that Uterine Care Pill you gave her?"

"Just slightly modified melatonin so she can have a good sleep."

Dirk Carter said with a playful grin.

"And… what about the other areas? What are you planning to do?"

Arlo Yarbrough asked.

Dirk Carter chuckled.

He said, "You don't need to know that. Anyway, I have ways to make her look radiant, forever trust me completely. Women's minds are always simpler than men's."

"Alright, alright, I won't ask. You come across as righteous, but you're full of tricks. No wonder so many women are under your thumb. I've learned my lesson."

Arlo Yarbrough teased, before turning to leave, somewhat sulkily.

At noon.

The Municipal Committee Building became quiet.

Most people went home for lunch.

Dirk Carter had his meal in the cafeteria, and upon returning to the office, before he could even close the door, he saw Laura Forrest hurrying in.

Perhaps due to her large strides.

The two masses on her chest became extremely lively.

"Secretary General Carter, am I disturbing your rest?"

Laura Forrest asked apologetically.

Dirk Carter shook his head and said, "No worries, I usually don't rest at noon."

After letting Laura Forrest in.

Dirk Carter closed the door.

He pointed to the sofa and said, "County Head Forrest, please sit. Let me explain the treatment process to you."

Once Laura Forrest sat down obediently.

Dirk Carter asked, "County Head Forrest, have you had acupuncture before?"

"I've tried a few times."

Laura Forrest said.

Dirk Carter sighed in relief and said, "Then County Head Forrest should know, during acupuncture, one cannot wear clothes, right?"
