Chapter 422 Keeping The Promise.
Just as Ellie finished speaking, Helena, who had been lying on the bed with her eyes tightly shut, suddenly let out a soft
groan.
Everyone in the room instantly turned to look at her.
Then, under the astonished gazes of the doctors, Helena’s eyelashes trembled slightly. And slowly, her eyes opened.
The doctors, who had insisted that Helena couldn’t possibly wake up just moments ago, were completely dumbfounded.
Ellie stood rooted to the ground. Staring blankly at Helena, she murmured under her breath, “How… how is this possible?”
Sensing the shocked looks around her, Helena instinctively propped herself up and slowly sat upright in bed.
Everyone could see that her once–paralyzed limbs were now capable of slight movement.
However, her body was still very weak. As soon as she sat up, she clutched her mouth and let out a harsh cough before collapsing back onto the bed from exhaustion.
“Ms. Rickard!” Everyone from Lunshire was terrified.
Aurelia and Henry immediately rushed to Helena’s side.
“She’s just physically weak and passed out,” Raven said calmly, glancing at the two of them.
“Let me take a look,” John quickly stepped forward, placing a hand on Helena’s wrist to check her pulse.
He was shocked to find that Helena was truly no longer in any life–threatening condition.
Even more surprisingly, her vital signs had returned to normal.
Realizing this, John completely forgot to maintain his usual aloof and detached demeanor.
He looked at Raven in disbelief and asked, “What did you do to Ms. Rickard? Did you seriously cure her with just two needles?”
Even with the facts right in front of him, he still couldn’t accept he still couldn’t accept that an unknown young lady had cured an illness that left all the renowned doctors helpless.
“I have no obligation to explain it to you,” Raven replied coldly.
She then turned her indifferent gaze toward Ellie, who was still frozen in shock. “Ms. Rickard has awakened. You said if she woke up, you’d quit the medical field. You’ll keep your word, right?”
Her eyes swept over John and the rest of the doctors. “And some of you also said you’d kneel and apologize. It’s time to fulfil your promise now.“.
The doctors who had been called out looked at each other awkwardly, bitterness and reluctance filling their eyes.
They were well–respected figures in the medical community and recipients of invitations to the prestigious World Medical Conference.
If word got out that they had to kneel and apologize to a young lady who hadn’t even received a third–tier invitation, it would ruin their reputation.
As for Ellie, she definitely wouldn’t honor the bet.
She considered herself a medical prodigy, and as a student of John, she had a bright future ahead of her. There was no way she would give all that up over a bet with Raven.
“Miss Valor,” Jing Yang interjected, his tone calm but patronizing. “My student only made that bet because she was concerned that you might act recklessly and harm a patient. It was all for your own good.
