Chapter 22 A Peck
+10 pearls
At first glance, Emrys recognized that Patrick was using the Needle of Ninth Revival, but the latter obviously got some of the acupoints wrong.
Emrys tried to remind him kindly, but Rowan suddenly turned around and snapped, “Shut your trap! If it weren’t for you, my dad wouldn’t have fainted. Stop putting on an act! If anything happens to my dad, I’m never going to let you off!”
As Rowan glared at Emrys with hatred, the other painting and calligraphy enthusiasts, including Lorenzo, did the same.
They all attributed Harrison’s attack to Emrys.
This event could have been perfect, but it’s ruined because of him and that damned woman! They should be blacklisted from events like this for life.
Just then, a series of coughs sounded.
Harrison came to his senses, and the redness on his face had faded.
The crowd finally sighed in relief when they saw that.
Keeping his needle, Patrick pointed out coldly, “I think I heard someone boasting and questioning my medical skills just now.”
He had actually heard Emrys earlier but couldn’t refute him right away, as he was focused on the
treatment.
Now that Harrison was awake, Patrick had the time to berate Emrys.
Patrick would not allow anyone to doubt his professionalism.
The people around them were already dissatisfied with Emrys, so when they saw Patrick striking back, they began to gloat and watch with amusement.
He claimed there was something wrong with Patrick’s execution. How is he going to defend himself now that Harrison has regained consciousness? How embarrassing!
Emrys ignored their mocking looks and spoke calmly. “Harrison will definitely faint again within three days, and he’s going to bleed profusely. He’s going to die within five days!”
Emrys had seen it clearly while Patrick was treating Harrison.
Instead of releasing the surging energy within Harrison, Patrick suppressed it with his incorrect usage of needles. Doing that would only cause more serious repercussions.
If things went according to Emrys‘ prediction, Harrison would get a worse attack within three days.
