Chapter 54
His pulse was irregular, indicating that Max had been poisoned.
Currently, there was more than a type of toxin in his body.
The toxins gathered in the old man’s body were invading his internal organs, causing him to slip into a coma.
The more Natalie dwelled on it, the more terrified she felt. The presence of different toxins means that more than one person has poisoned Old Mr. Watsons. How could they do that to the head of their family? The Watsons family is full of wolves! That‘s why there are different toxins in Old Mr. Watson‘s body.If Mr. Jones had not asked me to come over and check on Old Mr. Watsons, I‘m afraid he would have only another two weeks to live.
Natalie quickly took out a set of acupuncture needles from her bag.
She lifted the shirt on Max and inserted the needles at different acupuncture points on his body.
At that moment, her priority was to flush out the toxins in Max’s body.
He could only recover completely after the detoxification process.
Just when Natalie was about to insert the last needle at the acupuncture point between Max’s eyes, someone forcefully gripped her arm and stopped her.
The person was holding onto her arm so firmly that she could not move her hand at all.
“Who are you? What are you doing to my grandpa?”
Natalie glanced at her arm that was being clutched before shifting her gaze to the person who stopped her.
The man was wearing a white shirt and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Although he was not as mesmerizing as Samuel, his facial features were exquisite as well. The man in front of her was undoubtedly handsome and attractive.
However, Natalie was not distracted by his good looks. The most important task for
her to do at the moment was to save Max.
She spoke. “I’m a doctor. I’m here to save him.”
“That’s not necessarily true,”Shawn said coldly, having no intention of loosening his grip.
She glared at him as she explained, “Do you know how many types of toxins are there in your grandfather’s body? Four! That means at least four people poisoned him. Can you guarantee that the doctor who’s treating your grandfather now is not working for the people who poisoned him? If I were here to take Old Mr. Watsons’ life, I wouldn’t have performed acupuncture. I can save my time by just stabbing him with a knife.”
