Arielle’s expression became serious. “Traditional Chanaean medicine has been in existence for thousands of years and it is a very profound field of knowledge. Moreover, there are many people learning it now; so how can you look down on it as a Chanaean?” As Carter’s family owned a modern medicine hospital, he naturally looked down on traditional Chanaean medicine. Amused, he said, “I’m not saying that traditional Chanaean medicine is useless.
It can cure cold and fever, but isn’t it ridiculous to suggest that it can treat a psychological illness too?” Arielle frowned. Her adoptive parents were currently doing research on that. After a few experiments, they discovered that it was actually effective. Yet, Carter rejected all of their efforts just like that. She said disapprovingly, “I’m not being ridiculous. If you agree, I can give it a shot.” Carter refused without any hesitation.
“There’s no need for that. If traditional Chanaean medicine’s as amazing as you claim it is, you can use it for your DNA test.” “You…” Arielle was at a loss for words, not knowing how to rebuke him. However, Vinson immediately said, “Just let her try.” Carter and Arielle looked at him simultaneously. Carter protested, “Vin, you know very well how important that guy is to us.” Vinson replied calmly, “I let her give it a shot precisely because he’s important.
If we stick to modern treatments, we’ll have to wait for a year. We are facing a lot more obstacles now. In fact, my life and Harvey’s are being threatened, yet we don’t even know who the enemy is. Do you think that we can afford to wait for another year?” Carter fell silent. It’s true that we can’t wait for so long. Who knows what the opponent’s next step would be? Arielle glanced at Vinson in surprise.
Although Carter was still suspicious, he still left the room. Soon, he brought back everything that was needed. After changing into her clothes, Arielle was the first to grab the ropes on the floor.
“As I’m wearing the hotel staff’s uniform, I won’t attract much attention. I’ll go down first to keep a lookout for both of you.” Carter could not help but remind her, “Ms. Moore, we’re on the eleventh floor. Are you sure you can go down alone?”
