Chapter 478
Her second attempt to test the poison with her own body had failed and she was already affected by the Mandala poison. Now, she embarked on the third attempt. Tho types of poisons instantly spread throughout her body. Her palm-sized face lost its rosy flush and turned ghastly pale. Her legs gave way and she fell onto the carpet.
Because of the pain, beads of cold sweat formed on her forehead and her vision began to blur. With trembling fingertips, Arabella quickly opened the medical book left by her mother and flipped it to the last page.
The last page was about using poison to counteract poison and using blood as medicine.
Under normal circumstances, she would have died on the spot when she embarked on the third attempt to test the poison with her own body, let alone save Kenneth. However, the last page of this medical book contained a very mysterious ancient acupuncture manipulation technique, that was, sealing her vital vessels with gold needles and then extracting a drop of blood from her heart to save the patient.
It was a forbidden technique of saving the patient's life with the other person's life and it only existed in legends. Both Arabella and Tyrone had heard of this, but none of them knew how to perform it. Much to Arabella's surprise, the medical book left by her mother actually contained such an incredible technique.
Arabella picked up a gold needle and pierced it into her acupoint to temporarily protect her vital vessels.
Right at this moment, Kenneth's low, deep voice came from the outside. He was calling her, "Bella! Bella!"
Arabella quickly put away the gold needle and the medical book. She looked at herself in the mirror and found her face looked very pale. Therefore, she immediately took out her lipstick and lightly applied it to her lips. Then she dabbed some on her cheeks. In this way, her complexion looked better.
Arabella immediately saw Kenenth when she walked out.
He failed to find her when he came back and was now looking for her anxiously in the corridors.
Arabella wondered when he had gone. Probably because he was too anxious to return home, she found one of his shoes had fallen off, but he was completely unaware.
"Bella!"
"Bella!"
