Chapter 173 Poisoning
Kieran grew very emotional and was seemingly a moment away from getting physical with Jared.
Upon seeing that, Walter instantly zipped forward and held him back. “Kieran, Mr. Chance is here to treat your wife. What are you doing?”
“Don’t worry, for your wife is just unconscious. She’ll be fine.”
Having said that, Jared sat on the bed and placed a hand on the elderly woman’s pulse. On the heels of that, a burst of pure spiritual energy left his body and streamed into hers.
If she were possessed, his spiritual energy would undoubtedly be able to force the spirit out. Regretfully, no matter how much he increased the flow of his spiritual energy, she remained still without the slightest reaction.
At that, Jared frowned slightly. “Hmm? Could it be that I made a mistake?”
In the beginning, he had thought that she was possessed by a malicious spirit, and he only needed to force it out before absorbing it into himself. However, it seemed that she wasn’t possessed, after all.
“Mr. Chance?” Walter called out softly when nothing happened after a long while, and he noticed something off about Jared’s expression.
At that moment, Josephine mustered her courage and went up behind Jared. Despite her fear, she was still curious and wanted to see how exactly a spirit looked like.
A long time passed without anything transpiring, and the atmosphere in the entire room turned a tad awkward.
Jared slowly retracted his hand, sweat beading on his forehead.
He had used too much spiritual energy earlier, so he was a touch enervated.
“She’s not suffering from hysteria, so I’ll check for other causes.”
After saying that, he picked up a silver needle and gently inserted it into the elderly woman’s wrist. Then he slowly twisted it.
Soon, almost the entire needle was embedded in her wrist.
