Chapter 400 I Believe In Dr. Kidman
As Ellie’s words Isll, the repressions of the surrounding doctors showed subtle hints of doubt.
Farber, their attention had been entirely on fraven’s call with Ethan While they had noticed a slight change in Raven’s voice, they hadn’t thought much of it
But now that File pointed it out–yes, Raven’s voice did sound different!
However, before anyone could dwell on the thought–Pin
Suddenly, the princess lying on the beat spat out a mouthful of dark, red blood
Rupert rushed forward, alarmed “Your Highness!”
Ellie’s eyes instantly lit up with glee this couldn’t be more perfect!
Even God was in her favor.
Without a second’s hesitation, she turned toward Raven, her expression cold and accusing, “You weren’t using the real Nine Meridians Technique just now, were you?
To gain the Sunset Empire’s Trust, you used a fake version of it and deliberately worsened the princess’s condition?
The expressions of the doctors darkened as they heard Ellie’s words.
Rupert, holding the princess–whose face was now frighteningly pale–turned his gaze to Raven, his expression slowly growing cold. “Miss Valor… is what Dr. Ellie said true?”
Even though he suspected Hiemaly might be the lord of Hiemal, he couldn’t be sure Raven hadn’t tricked even him.
If the princess truly ended up harmed, not even the protection of a Hiemal lord would save her.
Feeling Rupert’s frosty stare, Raven spoke calmly, “That was internal congestion. Expelling it will help her recovery.”
Ellie let out a harsh laugh, like she’d just heard a joke. “Heh! I’ve practiced medicine for years and never once heard that spitting blood helps recovery.”
She turned to Rupert again. “Mr. Powell, for the safety of the princess, we can’t let this Miss Valor continue treatment. Let my teacher take over!”
Rupert looked down at the princess in his arms and gave a solemn nod.
“Very well. We’ll leave it to Dr. Kidman.”
John gave a slight nod and quickly walked to the princess’s bedside. He gently took her wrist to feel her pulse.
The moment he touched it, his brow furrowed deeply.
Though he was widely experienced, he had never encountered a pulse quite like this.
Rupert noticed his reaction, his heart sinking. “Dr. Kidman… can you treat her?”
John hesitated, then replied, “I can try.”
Given the princess’s current condition, doing nothing would almost certainly lead to her death.
But if he tried, she might still have a ten percent chance of survival.
He pulled a silver needle from his inner coat pocket.
Raven didn’t move to stop him.
She had only treated the princess earlier because she wanted to meet Lola.
Now that Lola would be arriving soon, whether or not the princess recovered wasn’t her concern.
Still, as she watched John prepare his needles, her gaze shifted to the princess–who, while weak, was still conscious.
After a brief pause, Raven spoke evenly, “Rest in bed for two days and you’ll be able to walk by the third. After that, your recovery will progress naturally. But if you let him poke around blindly, your condition will likely worsen again.”
She had no particular affection for the Sunset Empire, but this patient was someone she had treated. A warning was, at the very least, a professional courtesy.
Whether the girl listened or not–that wasn’t he
The princess frowned slightly upon hearing he
Successfully unlocked!
Her eyes moved from Raven–whose background was unknown and whose treatment had led to her coughing blood–to Dr. Kidman, one of the leading figures in global medicine. “I believe in Dr. Kidman.”
Her voice, though weak, was firm.
