Chapter 122,A Beauty with Multiple Masks
But didn’t she say that she only understood a little? How could this be considered just little? By now, Arielle’s fingers moved and she frailly opened her eyes. What greeted her was a scene of carnage in the room; the smashed fragments of the vase that used to stand by the door laid all over the floor; the television turned over—it was as though some fierce battle had taken place. She sat up, confounded. “What just happened?”
Vinson strode toward her, but did not give her a straight answer. “How are you feeling?” Arielle shook her head and was about to speak when the man in the bed next to hers exclaimed in Ustranasion, “It’s y’all!” Carter chopped down on the man’s neck with his back of his hand posthaste, causing the man’s eyeballs to roll into his skull and fall into unconsciousness. That shocked Arielle but she quickly recovered. “Was he conscious?” “Yeah.” Vinson nodded as he glanced meaningfully at the discomfited Carter before withdrawing his gaze. “All thanks to you.
Otherwise, we might have to tend to him for an entire year.” The increasingly embarrassed Carter pulled out his phone and made a call. “Send a few guys upstairs and move the fella back to my place.” Since the man was able to communicate normally, it was time for him to begin his “interrogation”.
Full of admiration, Klaus came before Arielle to laud her with praise. “Your medical expertise is truly astonishing! My two teachers were right in commending the profundity of traditional Chanaean medicine, and truly, there is much from which our modern medicine can learn from.
Vinson’s brows became bound in a tight furrow. “What has traditional Chanaean medicine’s development to do with you? Dr. Janokowitsch, go get the nurse to put her on a drip.” Arielle instinctively rejected it. “I’m fine…” Vinson was expressionless while he remained cautionary.
“Don’t push yourself. Remember that you’ll still need to climb your way back into the hotel.” Arielle fell silent upon hearing that. She knew her own body well, and understood that it needed attention owing to the delicate state it was in. Vinson’s expression seemed to softened after seeing that she was no longer resistant. “Alright, you should rest up. Try to speed up the DNA processing on your end, Carter.”
