Chapter 123 Are You That Desperate
Carter nodded promptly as whatever misgivings he had against Arielle from before had become a thing of the past. “I’m going over there myself to expedite it, but no matter the level of urgency, processing will still take up to a day. I believe that if I were to head down personally, we should be able to get the results before tomorrow morning.”
“Thank you.”
“You’ve been a great help to us, so that’s the least I could do,” Carter said while he looked to the man in the bed. “When will we be able to remove the needles?”
Jordan pouted at Carter for stealing all the lines.
Who was it who ordered to have the needles removed in the first place?
Arielle glanced at the man. “If he’s already conscious and you don’t need me to complete the treatment, then you can remove them now. I’ll…”
“Stay put!” Vinson held her down by the shoulder. “Allow me.”
Jordan warily eyed the hand Vinson placed on Arielle, feeling a little jealous inside.
He very much wanted to say something, but lost his courage to do so when he recalled how he distrusted Arielle just as Carter did. Thus, he decidedly slinked away quietly to the sidelines.
Just then, Harvey led a few bodyguards through the door. “I heard that the man has been cured?”
In the next second, his attention was caught by the sight of Arielle on the bed and the mess in the room, and that prompted him to glare at Carter. “What the hell did you do?”
“I…” Carter scratched his nose uncomfortably.
Vinson had just finished removing the needles. “Go out, all of you. Arielle needs to rest.”
Harvey asked with a grimace, “What actually happened here?”
