Chapter 114

Chapter 114 Not trustworthy Arielle’s expression became serious.

“Traditional Chanaean medicine has been in existence for thousands of years and it is a very profound field of knowledge. Moreover, there are many people learning it now; so how can you look down on it as a Chanaean?”

As Carter’s family owned a modern medicine hospital, he naturally looked down on traditional Chanaean medicine.

Amused, he said, “I’m not saying that traditional Chanaean medicine is useless. It can cure cold and fever, but isn’t it ridiculous to suggest that it can treat a psychological illness too?”

Arielle frowned.

Her adoptive parents were currently doing research on that. After a few experiments, they discovered that it was actually effective. Yet, Carter rejected all of their efforts just like that. She said disapprovingly, “I’m not being ridiculous. If you agree, I can give it a shot.”

Carter refused without any hesitation.

“There’s no need for that. If traditional Chanaean medicine’s as amazing as you claim it is, you can use it for your DNA test.”

“You…”

Arielle was at a loss for words, not knowing how to rebuke him.

However, Vinson immediately said, “Just let her try.”

Carter and Arielle looked at him simultaneously.

Carter protested, “Vin, you know very well how important that guy is to us.”

Vinson replied calmly, “I let her give it a shot precisely because he’s important. If we stick to modern treatments, we’ll have to wait for a year. We are facing a lot more obstacles now. In fact, my life and Harvey’s are being threatened, yet we don’t even know who the enemy is. Do you think that we can afford to wait for another year?”

Carter fell silent.

It’s true that we can’t wait for so long. Who knows what the opponent’s next step would be?

Arielle glanced at Vinson in surprise.

Strangely, he seems to trust me a lot. Is it because I’ve saved him before? Since Vinson trusts me so much, I will not disappoint him.

She took in a deep breath and said, “There are a lot of side-effects associated with modern medicine, but there’s none for traditional Chanaean medicine. Even if I fail, it won’t be your loss at all.”

When Carter heard that, the wary look in his eyes faded slightly.

“Fine, then let’s give it a shot. Just don’t kill the person.”

“Don’t worry, even if I don’t cure him, I will not let anything happen to the patient.”

“Let’s go now.”

Carter headed out.

“Wait…” interrupted Arielle embarrassedly. “Can you please prepare a set of clothes for me? Also, I can’t leave from the front door. There are countless pairs of eyes staring at this room right now.”

Vinson said, “Get her a set of clothes and some ropes. If we could not leave from the front door, we’ll have to flip through the window.”

Carter nodded. “When I entered, I could feel that someone is guarding the entrance of the hotel.

However, you said in your call that I shouldn’t alert others, so I deliberately wore a hotel staff’s uniform.

I came up while avoiding the watchful eyes. However, this is the eleventh floor. Even if we can climb down, can she? Are you going to carry her down?”

Vinson was about to say that he would carry Arielle down, when she interrupted curtly, “You don’t have to worry about that. I can climb down myself.”

The two men stared at her simultaneously. After meeting Arielle’s determined gaze, Vinson turned back and instructed Carter, “Go and prepare everything.”

Although Carter was still suspicious, he still left the room.

Soon, he brought back everything that was needed. After changing into her clothes, Arielle was the first to grab the ropes on the floor. “As I’m wearing the hotel staff’s uniform, I won’t attract much attention. I’ll go down first to keep a lookout for both of you.”

Carter could not help but remind her, “Ms. Moore, we’re on the eleventh floor. Are you sure you can go down alone?”
