After a while, a dozen of silver needles were poked onto Alfredâs chest.
Throughout the entire process, Roxanne focused all her attention on treating him calmly and steadily In fact, she was so focused that she didnât realize Lucian was staring at her the whole time.
When they were downstairs, he had already read through her credentials. It was absolutely flawless.
That was enough for him to imagine how exciting her life had been for the past six years.
However, it was his first time seeing this side of her.
When she was doing her job, she was absolutely focused and didnât reflect any hesitation in her movements.
It was something Lucian had never seen in Roxanne before.
An indescribable feeling surfaced in his heart when he saw that.
At the side, Jonathan had been observing her poking the needles on his grandfather and her expression as she was doing so.
After a dozen needles were poked onto Alfredâs body, he joyously found out that perhaps she would be able to save Alfred.
Like everyone else, he thought it was ridiculous when she stabbed her first silver needle.
However, recalling her expression as she was doing so, he somehow felt as though he could trust her.
So, he insisted that she stayed.
The more he watched her administer the needles skillfully and composedly, the more he was certain she was capable of treating his grandfather.
He also noticed that the spots she stabbed with the needles were very dangerous acupuncture points.
If she made even the tiniest mistake, not only would her effort be for nothing, but Alfred might also lose his life.
It was his belief that Roxanne wouldnât risk Alfredâs life unless she was confident.
It looks like her research on acupuncture and acupuncture points had indeed reached the level of a masterâs!
Thinking of that, Jonathan felt joyful and respected her from the bottom of his heart.
Even though she looks younger than me, sheâs already much more capable than I am. Indeed, one shouldnât judge a book by its cover.
The room remained silent for nearly twenty minutes before Roxanne stabbed one last needle onto Alfred. Her expression relaxed as she lifted her sweaty forehead. âAll right, that will be enough. Heâll be much better after I remove the necdles an hour later.â
She glanced at the two men beside the bed.
Jonathan let out a long sigh of relief and carefully approached Alfred. Then he asked, âWhen will he wake up?â
âHe should wake up when I remove the needles.â
Roxanne stood up and attempted to grab tissue papers to wipe her forehead.
Just as she was about to do that, someone tugged the hem of her shirt.
She paused and lowered her head in confusion. That was when she met up with Estellaâs sparkling eyes.
Even though she knew it was a child Lucian had with another woman, she still couldnât steel her heart in front of such an angelic and cute face.
Seeing how she was looking at her, Estella pulled out a neatly folded handkerchief and stood on her toes. Then she handed the handkerchief to Roxanne with anticipation in her eyes.
Roxanne hesitated for a few seconds before smiling, âThank you.â
Sec Then she accepted the handkerchief and wiped her forehead with it.
acc Estella smiled brightly and left to pour her a cup of water.
Lucian stared silently at how Estella was walking around excitedly.
His eyes turned dark.
This is the first time sheâs taking the initiative to get closer to someone. Although⦠I suppose itâs only natural, considering their relationship.
Jonathan didnât know that, so he was surprised. âLooks like Essie likes you, Dr. Jarvis! Itâs my first time seeing her being willing to get close to another person!â
