Chapter 57
Shawn’s eyes flickered slightly, and his cheeks were rosy red.
“I’m sorry that I’ve misunderstood you just now, Ms. Nichols.” His ardent gaze was fixated on her. “You saved my grandpa. I’ll remember your kindness forever.”
Natalie said coolly, “There’s no need to remember it for so long.”
“Ms. Nichols, are you still blaming me for what I just said?”
“I’m not that petty.” Natalie nodded politely at Max. “Old Mr. Watsons, I was entrusted by Mr. Jones to come and treat you. I hope that the Watsons family can keep this matter a secret, as I don’t do public consultations.”
Max nodded in response to her request.
Natalie then put her crystal needles away and placed them in her shoulder bag.
She reminded, “I’ll have to administer acupuncture two more times on you to cleanse the remaining poisons in your body. I’ll need your grandson to accompany me to get your medicine. They should be taken after meals. The poisons in your body are slow-acting. It was probably added to your diet in very small doses by someone around you. Although it’s not easy to detect, it would become rampant with time. There are four kinds of poisons in your body. I hope you can use this opportunity to reevaluate the people around you.”
She explained everything she had to as a doctor.
As for the Watsons family’s matters, she was not interested in being involved in them.
Max closed his eyes and took a deep breath before saying, “How can I not know what the people around me have in mind? What I really didn’t expect is that they would lay their hands on me for their desires. Although I’m rumored to be ruthless and merciless, I’m much more merciful compared to them.”
It was already enough of a headache for him to have such messy family affairs.
Tactfully, Natalie refrained from making any comments.
“Old Mr. Watson’s, I’ll need Mr. Watsons to go with me to pick up the medicine. I’ll
come by three days later for the next acupuncture.”
