Everyone watched eagerly as Clifford worked to revive Scarlet. Clifford confidently inserted a silver needle into Scarlet's temple, followed by over ten other acupressure points on her face and forehead.
"Alright!" Clifford wiped his sweat and calmly declared that he was confident in the treatment.
Suddenly, Scarlet made some soft noises from her throat. "Miss Harris is waking up!" Clifford exclaimed with a smile.
The people present were delighted to see this progress. "Great! Dr. Bailey, you truly deserve the title of 'divine physician'. I will definitely repay you generously," Zak said gratefully, his face full of relief.
However, his words were cut short by what happened next - a scene that left Zak's face twisted in horror and shock!
"Uh! Uh..."
Scarlet's throat still kept making sounds, but the more they listened, the more abnormal it sounded.
It seemed to be filled with intense pain and struggle, as if a scream was stuck in the throat but cannot be released.
Immediately after that, Scarlet lay there, convulsing violently all over her body, as if she had been electrocuted.
It was like the premonition of corpse transformation in some movies.
Finally, her entire body stiffened abruptly, and she lay there once again, motionless and completely silent.
This time she was not only unconscious, but also her vital signs were rapidly deteriorating!
This sudden and dramatic change had left everyone stunned!
"Scarlet! Scarlet, what's wrong?" Zak was so scared that his face turned pale and he shouted in trembling voice.
He only felt like he'd fallen directly from heaven into hell.
The next second, he grabbed Clifford's collar and asked fiercely, "What did you do to my daughter? What happened to her?"
"How... how could this happen? It shouldn't be like this. It was supposed to have been cured! Why? Why did it turn out like this?" Clifford was also scared out of his wits and quickly checked Scarlet's pulse. His whole body went numb with shock.
"You incompetent doctor! If my daughter suffers any harm, even if I have to discard my military uniform and face a military tribunal, I will kill you!" Zak angrily raised his head and roared.
Just at this moment, a figure flashed over and directly pushed Clifford to the side.
"I'll do it."
Upon seeing the person who came, Clifford was momentarily stunned and said, "It's you... you..."
Pushed aside by the young man, he wanted to scold him, but suddenly remembered Lachlan's earlier reminder.
Just now Lachlan said that if a few more needles were inserted, Scarlet would be in danger of losing her life.
Clifford sneered at this and did not approve of it.
However, now...
"Brat, don't touch my daughter!" Zak shouted angrily and loudly.
"If I don't touch her, she's about to die! We wouldn't have had time to rush her to the hospital for emergency treatment. Are you sure you don't want me to intervene?" Lachlan asked expressionlessly.
"You... " Zak naturally had no trust in this young man, but upon hearing these words, he hesitated.
He was really afraid that his daughter cannot be saved!
"Can you save Scarlet?" Zak asked in a low voice.
