The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 471

Chapter 471

In truth, Roxanne had not given it much thought before she blurted out her words. She merely felt that the particular acupuncture point was not the right one, and her heart pumped quickly.

However, upon being questioned by Daniel, Roxanne gradually calmed herself down, and countless analyses flashed through her mind.

A moment later, she walked toward Daniel and patiently explained, “This is indeed the most basic acupuncture point for pain relief, but I’m also crystal clear that we should consider the patient’s body condition before we do anything.”

“Whatever the condition, the acupuncture points will always be the same.” Daniel frowned, visibly impatient.

With that said, he immediately tried to stab the needle into the boy.
