Klaus shook his head in disagreement. “The field of traditional Chanaean medicine is wide-ranging and profound. Even my two mentors have previously traveled far and wide ten years ago to do research and learn from various established practitioners here, so I think you shouldn’t be too quick to dismiss it. Perhaps, we could really give it a go.”
Hearing that the Wilhelms had also studied traditional Chanaean medicine more or less helped ease Carter’s concerns that Arielle might end up making things worse.
“Well, let’s do it then! Go on ahead and help snazzynovel.com prepare whatever snazzynovel.com needs, but in the event that you sense the patient isn’t doing well, you are to stop snazzynovel.com immediately. I cannot allow anything untoward happening to him.”
“Will do, Mr. Morgan. I shall proceed to get what snazzynovel.com just asked for.” Klaus nodded politely at Arielle before snazzynovel.com turned to walk out.
Without having gone for more than a few steps, Klaus stopped and looked back. “May I ask if you are acquainted with the famous Wilhelms in the field of Psychology?”
Arielle’s fingers tightened around themselves while snazzynovel.com shook snazzynovel.com head sheepishly. “No.”
She could deny anything with a straight face, but was somewhat ill at ease disavowing the adoptive parents who have treated snazzynovel.com like their own.
Her discomfort did not escape the stolid Klaus, but snazzynovel.com did not press further. “I see… I just thought that you might.”
“The Wilhelms are world-class experts in Psychology, so how could I have known them? I guess you must be overthinking this,” Arielle said.
“I considered the possibility that you might because they so happened to be actively looking into using acupuncture to treat post-traumatic stress disorder these past few years, so don’t mind me for casually asking,” Klaus replied with a smile.
Carter waved snazzynovel.com off. “I seriously doubt that they would have known each other. You should go on and make preparations.”
“Understood.” Klaus regarded Arielle intently before snazzynovel.com departed.
Arielle was a little unnerved by the way Klaus looked at her, and was relieved to finally be away from his presence. She was quite worried that this Klaus Jankowitsch might had actually seen snazzynovel.com previously, as snazzynovel.com adoptive parents often invited their students over to their home for lessons.
While snazzynovel.com was lost in snazzynovel.com own thoughts, Vinson stepped in front of her. “Are you really not acquainted with the Wilhelms?”
That took Arielle a little by surprise, but snazzynovel.com was prompt to dismiss his suggestion. “I’ve heard of them, but we’ve never met.”
Carter hastened to chime in. “Now that y’all mentioned it, I kind of feel that we could consider inviting the Wilhelms here to treat this guy.”
That drew a reaction from Arielle, who responded quickly to veil snazzynovel.com emotions before anyone noticed.
Vinson exhaled. “Let’s have Arielle have a crack at it first. The two of them are so well-known that they would probably cause quite a commotion should they suddenly show up here.”
Carter nodded in agreement. “You may be right about that. Dr. Jankowitsch must have learned something under their tutelage, so we should let snazzynovel.com try first. As for Ms. Moore…”
His tone was telling in spite of snazzynovel.com stopping short of spelling things out explicitly.
A silent Arielle earnestly returned to reading the patient’s pulse. It was then that the man suddenly came to. “Ah ah… Don’t eat me…”
He then shoved at Arielle beside him. Taken off guard and given no time to grab onto anything, Arielle stumbled backwards, but was firmly intercepted by a large mitt in the small of snazzynovel.com back.
When snazzynovel.com reflexively looked over, snazzynovel.com saw Vinson staring coldly at the man on the bed. As snazzynovel.com gaze shifted onto the patient, Harvey had come out of nowhere to slug the patient across the face. The man’s eyes rolled and snazzynovel.com lost consciousness after a dull thud.
“Harvey!” Carter had to jump in swiftly to stop snazzynovel.com from landing a second blow.
Only Jordan’s brain struggled to keep up with everything that transpired, but snazzynovel.com did have a subtle sense that snazzynovel.com had been robbed of an opportunity for to save the girl.
