Chapter 35
Chapter 35 Before Roxanne could react to the situation, Lucian supported her
by the waist and stabilized her body. When she raised her head, she saw his
dark eyes. As their gazes met, Roxanne’s body stiffened. Then she quickly
looked away before standing back up by propping her hand on the bed and
supporting herself. He had grabbed her subconsciously when she fell.
However, when he saw her avoiding him like the plague, the look in his eyes
darkened. And so, he quickly withdrew the hand from her waist. “How dare
you say you researched complicated diseases before! Is this the result of your
research? I think those credentials of yours were bought!” Frieda didn’t notice
what was going on between the two of them and was still angry at Roxanne.
She stared at Jonathan furiously. “I think she’s a liar, Jonathan! We need to
kick her out right now!” When Roxanne heard that, she quickly snapped back
to her senses and mocked, “No wonder Old Mr. Queen’s condition became so
severe. It seems like someone’s been interfering with his treatment. Since you
insist I’m wrong, I’m leaving right now.”
She then started to put the needles back into her bag.
No one expected she would back off so easily after she displayed a steeled
determination to treat Alfred earlier. Jonathan was stunned for a few seconds
before snapping out of his daze and apologizing, “I’m really sorry, Dr. Jarvis.
To be honest, our family consists of many doctors, so we know a little bit
about acupuncture. My sister is angry probably because she thinks it’sdangerous for you to jab a needle at that acupuncture point and is worried
about our grandpa. Please forgive her.” Roxanne ignored him and continued
to pack her things. “I don’t need to stay here and get scolded by someone
who doesn’t know what I’m doing. I came here because I genuinely wanted to
help Old Mr. Queen, but since Ms. Queen doesn’t believe me, forget about it!”
The moment she finished speaking, she picked up her medical kit and headed
to the door. noveldrama
In a panic, Jonathan carefully put Alfred down before chasing after her. “We
can talk things out, Dr. Jarvis. My sister did go too far with her words, so I’ll
ask her to apologize to you right now. Please continue your treatment on my
grandfather.” “There’s no need for that. I can’t accept Ms. Queen’s apology.”
Roxanne’s tone was cold. Lucian’s eyebrows were furrowed tightly as he
stood at the side of the bed, staring at the back of her figure with a heavy
expression. He could tell she was really angry. On the side, Estella was also
able to tell Roxanne was angry. Panic filled her eyes. I didn’t even get the
chance to say hello to Ms. Jarvis yet, but now she’s leaving because she got
angry… Thinking of that. Estella got angry as well. To express her fury, she
walked over to Frieda, wrote a word in her notebook, and then showed it to
Frieda. Many people’s attention was shifted to her sudden appearance and
the word written in her book. which was “Apologize!” Estella stared at Frieda
with wide eyes. Frieda was too embarrassed to back down then. Her line of
sight casually shifted away from the notebook, and she pretended to not see
Estella. Then she turned to her brother. “If it doesn’t work out, we can just find
another doctor. I really can’t trust this person.” When she saw how Frieda was
still acting stubbornly, Roxanne’s expression turned colder as she mocked,
“Then I hope you can find a doctor you like before Old Mr. Queen takes his
last breath, Ms. Queen.” She turned around and stepped out. The moment
she did that, however, someone grabbed her wrist. Her eyebrows furrowed as
she turned back unhappily to see who it was. Lucian’s expressionless,
handsome face appeared in front of her. Shock filled her heart. What is he…
What is the meaning of this?
