The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 693

Chapter 693 A Lot More Knowledgeable

As time was of the essence, Roxanne forced herself to calm down and asked Jack for an acupuncture kit.

She then got to work and administered acupuncture treatment to help stabilize Jamie’s condition and keep his illness under control.

Fortunately, it wasn’t Jamie’s first time experiencing such a treatment, so he felt no fear whatsoever when he saw the long needles.

Roxanne remembered how Jamie had rather unique acupuncture points. Since he was ill, she made sure to be extra careful when inserting the needles.

Her entire forehead was drenched in sweat by the time she completed the acupuncture procedure.

“I’ve just spoken to the doctor in charge of Jamie,” Jack called out to her from behind.

Roxanne immediately tensed up upon hearing that. “What did he say? Did you manage to obtain any useful information?”

“All we know is that Jamie is suffering from some malnutrition,” Jack replied with a frown.

Roxanne furrowed her brows as the two of them shifted their gaze toward the director of the orphanage, who was standing in the corner.

Lucian donated a huge amount of resources to the orphanage under the name of Queen Group on the day of the medical consultation. We also made another personal donation after that, so this shouldn’t be happening at all.

The orphanage director let out a helpless sigh when he noticed the two staring at him. “Jamie refused to finish his meals ever since he arrived at the orphanage. He eats very little during each meal. We try to talk him into eating more, but he never listens.”

The two then shifted their gazes back toward Jamie, who was smiling apologetically at them.

The sight of his smile stabbed at Roxanne’s heart like a knife. Not wanting to press on any further, she sat down beside the bed and took Jamie’s pulse again.

Having found a direction to go in, Roxanne was soon able to determine the cause of his medical condition.
