Chapter 101
“Hang in there, Olivia. Thomas will be here soon.”
When Olivia heard Thomas’ name, she forcefully managed to smile. No matter the circumstances, as long as the man was by her side, she would feel safe.
If Thomas were present back then, Gavin wouldn’t dare touch her because Thomas would just beat him to death!
Harrison personally came to the main entrance of the hospital, awaiting Samuel’s arrival.
Soon, a magnificent Stretch Lincoln Limousine pulled up at the entrance, and Samuel got out of it.
“Samuel, you have to help me. My poor granddaughter is gravely injured, and only you can help her!”
Harrison couldn’t care less about his pride anymore, pleading in a desperate tone.
“You’re too courteous, Harrison. We’ve been friends for decades, after all. Don’t worry, I’ll help you in whatever way I can!”
Even though Samuel agreed, he didn’t expose something—that it was also for Thomas’ sake. After all, he knew that Thomas and Olivia were close, and Harrison had said over the phone that the person who got hurt was Olivia herself.
The two walked into the emergency room, and Samuel greeted Quincy first. As Irieson’s genius doctor, Quincy had many families scrambling to lick his boots. Then, Samuel exchanged pleasantries with Terrence and his son, Norman. The Peralta Family recently signed a significant number of business partnership contracts with the Pearsons. Of course, this was also done on account of Thomas.
After checking Olivia’s injuries, Samuel put on a complicated expression.
It was true that Samuel had studied acupuncture before, but he wasn’t confident that he could use the silver needles to seal off acupuncture points to protect the heart meridian while keeping the bones intact. This was a living person, not some plaything. Moreover, Olivia was irreplaceable, for the fate of the Six Greatest Families of Irieson lay on her shoulders, so Samuel couldn’t risk anything going wrong.
“Harrison, I’m sorry, but I am unable to help you.” Samuel shook his head helplessly.
“Then… What else can we do?”
Harrison and his daughters panicked. If even Samuel can’t help out, is death the only thing that awaits Olivia?
Bang!
The large doors of the emergency room were pushed open, and Thomas made his appearance, panting wildly.
“You’re finally here!”
Quincy let out a sigh of relief. Olivia’s condition was dire, after all. The pain of broken bones was serious business. If Olivia moved even a little bit, causing the broken bones to pierce her heart, she would be done for.
“Pass me the silver needles!” Thomas reached out a hand toward Quincy.
Quincy was already prepared. He hastily produced the silver needles, and after disinfecting them, he passed them to Thomas.
Thomas undid Olivia’s top. Her skin was creamy and filled with unending temptation, but Thomas couldn’t stop to admire the sight. He took out the silver needles, then, as if he were lightning itself, he
managed to insert more than ten silver needles into Olivia’s body in a fleeting moment.
Thomas ordered, “Help her up so that she’s sitting on the bed. Slowly now.”
Bella Denver and Hannah Denver flanked Olivia as they carefully helped her up.
The last silver needle pierced through the skin on Olivia’s neck.
Quincy didn’t even blink for a moment. The others couldn’t understand what Thomas was doing, but he could. The 15 silver needles were positioned at 15 acupuncture points, which protected all of Olivia’s meridians.
Amazing! This is such a genius move!
As Thomas gazed at Olivia’s pale little face, fury raged within him.
With a huff, he took in a deep breath and forcefully suppressed his rage. He knew that this wasn’t the time to be mad. His utmost priority right now was to heal Olivia.
Thomas reached out a hand and massaged Olivia’s spine, going up and down along it.
Once, twice, thrice…
Each repetition was stronger than the one before it. Finally, after the third time, a clear crack was heard coming from Olivia’s body.
“Hm?”
Bella and Hannah heard it loud and clear, and disbelief colored their faces.
Was that the sound of the broken bone moving?
Thomas didn’t stop there as he massaged Olivia a few more times.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
After a series of sounds that came from the friction between moving bones, Olivia’s broken ribs had all returned to their proper positions!
Bella and Hannah were shocked. Who is this young man? How could he return Olivia’s broken bones to their rightful spots with only acupuncture and massages? How is this possible?
After all, Olivia was so seriously injured that even Quincy, the best doctor in the medical field, couldn’t do anything about it.
It is a miracle! A real miracle! Even Harrison was shocked. How can such magical medical skills exist in this world?
Terrence and Norman also let out a long sigh when they saw the scene. Olivia was the chosen one, and she had the responsibility of the Pearsons. It was fortunate that she was saved, or the consequences would be unthinkable!
But Thomas surprised them greatly. They never thought that Thomas would have such miraculous talent in addition to his fighting skills!
Thomas helped Olivia lie on the bed, then covered her body with a blanket. He was focused on rescuing her just now, so he hadn’t bothered, but now that his treatment was wrapping up, he didn’t want her private parts to be exposed.
“Get her the best VIP ward,” Thomas said to Quincy.
This wasn’t a suitable place to talk. This ward was too crude, and they could even hear the sounds of other patients getting emergency care outside the door. It was a little noisy.
Quincy immediately ordered someone to make the preparations. Then, two nurses came in and sent Olivia to a VIP ward.
Thomas checked Olivia’s pulse. After making sure that she was all right, he wrote a prescription and passed it to Quincy, telling him to prepare the medicine. Then, Thomas personally fed Olivia some traditional medicine that would get rid of the poison in her body.
After some time, Quincy came back with the prepared medicine. Thomas took a spoon and fed the medicine to Olivia.
When all this was done, Thomas didn’t say anything as he stood quietly next to Olivia, observing her reactions.
About 10 minutes elapsed, and pink tints returned to Olivia’s complexion. Olivia felt that her body had gotten much better, and the pain wasn’t unbearable anymore. She even felt a warm current in her stomach, nourishing all the corners of her body and bringing her unspeakable comfort.
Olivia knew very well that the man in front of her was her savior. He was her fated Prince Charming, wasn’t he? If not, how else would he be able to snatch her from the claws of death time and again?
“Thank you!”
Thomas didn’t respond to her words. He sat on a chair next to the bed, lit a cigarette, and took a puff. Then, he asked with a simple but clear intention, “Who?”
Quincy shuddered as he thought, Oh no, Thomas dared to kill even Drake for Olivia’s sake, so Gavin is certainly in trouble!
When Norman heard Thomas’ words, he didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly. He still vividly remembered what happened in the Hind Residence.
He could believe unconditionally that his son wasn’t the one who hurt Olivia, but Thomas wouldn’t!
“Gavin… Pearson!” Olivia seethed as she pronounced the name. It was obvious that she hated Gavin to the bones.
“Gavin Pearson?” Thomas was bewildered. Can it be one of the Pearsons?
