Chapter 785
“Ms. Moore, is what you say really true?” Grabbing Arielle‘s hand in disbelief, Josee asked in desperation, “I don‘t have to die?”
“Of course. You don‘t have to die, and I‘m not going to allow it to happen.”
Holding her face, Josee broke into tears.
Meanwhile, Nigel, who was calmer, asked awkwardly, “In that case Ms. Moore, how much are your fees?”
“Fees?” Arielle answered with a smile, “I already told you that I am repaying the favor Teddy did me. Treating your wife is what I‘m obliged to do for Teddy. Therefore, it will be free of charge. However, if it makes you feel better, you can get Teddy to pay me back once he grows up and earns a salary.”
The moment both of them heard Arielle‘s suggestion, they chose the latter at once.
Puffing up his chest, Teddy declared, “Sannie, when I grow up, I‘ll definitely pay you back!”
“At a boy, Teddy!” Arielle stroked Teddy‘s bare head and replied, “In that case, let‘s start the first treatment now.”
“Sure, sure.” Josee and Nigel nodded repeatedly.
After instructing Vinson on how to prepare the herbs, Arielle helped Josee into her bedroom.
Taking out her needle pouch, she spread the silver-plated needles out one by one before treating Josee with acupuncture.
Although Vinson was concerned with what Arielle was doing, he didn‘t say a word. Instead, he went into the kitchen to prepare a saline solution for her.
Every time Arielle used her needles for treatment, it would put a strain on her body. Subsequently, she would need a few days of rest to recover. Therefore, he needed to be prepared just in case she faints.
While Vinson was preparing the herbs and saline solution in the kitchen, Arielle was in the bedroom treating Josee.
However, he took comfort in Arielle‘s calm and steady demeanor.
