"They all look happy…" Reinhard said quietly, hearing the question in his own statement. "Is this the norm?"
Martha glanced at him, something in her expression suggesting she heard more than just the surface question. "At first it wasn't. But a month after I took over, it started to change into this."
Marie's eyes shone with curiosity. "How did you do it? Most cities tend to have a mixed bag of people who are happy, in pain, or sad after visiting clinics. But so far, all I'm seeing is happy faces."
Martha's smile grew as she slightly puffed her chest out. "Better practices. We help ease patients into processes, and we always put their well-being first."
Reinhard's voice came softer than intended. "Do you mean using expensive materials and medicine?"
"So you caught onto that." Martha's tone carried no defensiveness.
"But won't it cost you money?" Reinhard pressed on with a raised brow. "Is it really worth it?"
