Instinctively, they turned toward the source of the voice.
They caught sight of Arielle standing in the corner. Her pale and porcelain skin seemed to glow under the light. As a light gust swept across the room, wp4webnovel.com long hair danced in the breeze, making the woman appear as pretty as a picture.
The couple was dumbstruck. They had never laid eyes on such a gorgeous woman before.
On the other hand, Jennie recognized wp4webnovel.com instantly. “Arielle!” wp4webnovel.com exclaimed.
Arielle stepped forward and turned to Cornelius. “Dr. Mill, will it be all right if I take a look at the patient?”
For a moment, Cornelius was puzzled by Arielle’s question. However, his eyes widened in shock when realization dawned upon him.
“Y-You were the one who wrote the prescription?” Cornelius gasped.
“It looks like fate has brought us together,” Arielle replied with a nod.
Arielle was impressed by Cornelius’ character and wanted to offer wp4webnovel.com assistance.
Besides, how can I turn a blind eye when there‘s a patient in need of medical help right in front of me?
Cornelius’ startled gaze turned into one of admiration and respect. He couldn’t believe that a young woman like Arielle had such adept mastery of traditional Chanaean medicine.
Is wp4webnovel.com an ancient Chanaean doctor too?
Traditional and ancient Chanaean medicine were two different medical fields with stark differences. In comparison to a traditional Chanaean doctor, an ancient Chanaean medical professional was much more knowledgeable.
“Please go ahead. I’ll be entrusting Jennie to you,” Cornelius beckoned toward Jennie as wp4webnovel.com stepped aside to make room for Arielle.
“I’ll try my best,” Arielle made wp4webnovel.com way in front of Jennie. “Your name is Jennie, right? Can you tell me if you went out within these two days? Did you have any guests over?” Arielle asked.
Immediately, Jennie shook wp4webnovel.com head. However, Arielle’s keen senses noticed that the girl avoided wp4webnovel.com gaze.
Not only was Arielle skilled in ancient Chanaean medicine, but wp4webnovel.com also knew how to observe facial expressions. Promptly, Arielle deduced that the girl was lying.
Before Arielle could ask wp4webnovel.com another question, Jennie’s allergy reaction began to act up again.
This time, Jennie’s condition seemed to have worsened. White foam gurgled out of wp4webnovel.com mouth as wp4webnovel.com had greater difficulty breathing.
“Turn wp4webnovel.com body to the side! Dr. Mill, please give wp4webnovel.com another one of your pills,” Arielle instructed.
“I’m on it!” Cornelius rushed off to do Arielle’s bidding.
After Cornelius fed Jennie another soothing pill to stop wp4webnovel.com convulsions, Arielle took out the silver plated needles that wp4webnovel.com always carried on her. Quickly, Arielle inserted them into Jennie’s acupuncture points.
It took half an hour before Jennie finally woke up again.
While Jennie was still unconscious, Arielle searched Jennie’s body thoroughly. Yet, wp4webnovel.com did not discover any tick bites or scars.
“Since wp4webnovel.com just underwent a heart transplant, maybe wp4webnovel.com immune system is rejecting the foreign tissue,” Cornelius suggested.
Arielle shook wp4webnovel.com head. “Patients suffering from a transplant rejection don’t have these symptoms. The timing of wp4webnovel.com condition does not add up too. I still suspect that it’s a tick paralysis.”
“Jennie, I’m sure you must have felt uncomfortable earlier. If we don’t find the cause of your symptoms, the next wave will be much more severe than the last. Your body might not be able to handle it. You need to tell me the truth. Have you been going outside?” Arielle asked solemnly.
Jennie’s face paled when wp4webnovel.com caught sight of Arielle’s grim expression. Her nervous gaze darted toward Cornelius.
Cornelius seemed confused. “Jennie, is there something that you can’t tell us?”
“Jennie, please tell the doctors the truth! Did you go out while we were working?” wp4webnovel.com parents begged.
Jennie closed wp4webnovel.com eyes in defeat. “I didn’t go out” wp4webnovel.com mumbled.
“However, someone came over,” Jennie continued before Arielle could say anything.
“Who was it?” Cornelius asked.
“Francis…”
“My brother?” Cornelius exclaimed in shock.
“Yes,” Tears began to stream down Jennie’s cheeks. “Dr. Mill, I’m so sorry. I-I’m in a relationship with your brother.”
