Chapter 379
In anxiety, a gentle and pleasant voice suddenly commanded, “Make way!” Ophelia pushed Wade and Isabelle aside and quickly took the silver needles from their hands. She swiftly and skillfully inserted the needles, quickly sealing several acupoints on Desmond. Visible to the naked eye, Desmond’s breathing barely stabilized.
“Where is the medicine I asked for?!” she immediately asked the butler. The sharp gaze and fierce aura made the butler instinctively say, “It’s still frying. It will be ready soon!”
“Bring it to me as soon as possible!”
“Okay, okay!”
At this moment, the butler couldn’t care about anything and hurriedly ran out. After a while, he personally brought the cooked medicine. Ophelia ordered, “Pour it down his throat!”
Isabelle immediately stopped: “No medication allowed!” She sternly questioned Ophelia, “Did you want to kill him?” The butler hesitated. Ophelia scoffed and retorted, “Who almost killed someone?” Isabelle’s expression froze.
Ophelia looked at the butler and said, “Have you made up your mind, whether to listen to me or to her, and then watched Mr. Caldwell slowly lose his breath?” The butler thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and instructed the servant, “Administer the medicine!”
Soon, a bowl of medicine was swallowed. The butler stared eagerly at the person on the bed, but noticed that Desmond’s condition did not improve. After his face turned red for a while, his body became increasingly hot and his breathing became more rapid. When the butler touched his body, his temperature had already risen to forty degrees! It seems like people were all going to burn!
“Ms. Greene! What happened?!” Desmond’s body, seemingly going from one extreme to another, was clearly in the same state as before, almost unable to bear it! Isabelle inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ha, Ophelia was absolutely useless! “Ophelia, this is a matter of life! Is this how you used to fool around?!” Wade accused sternly. Ophelia didn’t give them a single glance; she stared at the scorching body in front of her and quickly sewed.
Wade thought she had some skills, seeing her calm and composed demeanor. However, upon closer inspection, he realized she had no idea about the logic behind needlework. It was clear that she was just randomly poking the needles! His face turned pale instantly! She was taking lives recklessly!
After receiving a set of acupuncture needles, Ophelia’s forehead had already started to sweat profusely. She said calmly, “The person will wake up soon.” Isabelle said the same thing just now, but in the end, not only did the person not wake up, but they also almost died! So everyone believed it only a little.
In a moment, Ophelia began to sew. After the needle was removed, the person on the bed remained motionless. Although the body temperature started to decrease and it seemed like the situation was improving, there was absolutely no sign of waking up. The butler’s expectations and nervousness dissipated little by little, and disappointment showed in his eyes. Wade and Isabelle, however, relaxed and chuckled.
Ha, Isabelle couldn’t do it, can Ophelia do it? Ophelia remained calm and composed; she glanced at the time, “I estimate it will take another five minutes.” So everyone waited for five minutes. The person was not awake.

Wade sneered, “Enough, we have wasted enough time, let’s go back!” After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave. Isabelle was certain that Ophelia didn’t have the ability, and she felt relieved. She shook her head and said, “You are too arrogant, I can’t even understand how you could possibly succeed.” Say it and then leave. Josie and Alyssa sighed, and followed closely behind.
