Chapter 24 Fallen For Someone Else
Calista didn’t respond, quietly pulling his ankle up.
Her palms became warm and she placed them on two acupoints of his ankle, massaging as she said, “You’re looking for someone to treat your younger brother?”
Jarrett was startled and pulled out another dagger from his back, aiming it at Calista.
But Calista was faster than him, and she used her hands to give a good twist. The loud snap of the bones being snapped back into place was heard, and the pain made Jarrett take a breath of cold air. giving Calista time to take away his dagger.

“Please transfer $200,000 to my account first thing tomorrow. Also if Mr. Sinclair wants my medical services, I don’t need a lot, just a million will do. If you’ve decided, you can transfer it at the same time.”
