Chapter 173 The Unspoken Trust
It wasn’t that Luna Thomas didn’t want to help, nor that she was afraid of taking responsibility. After all, she was the instigator of the car accident. If this man died, her responsibility would only be greater!
“It’s better to be honest!” Allie Wilson rebuked. “You have to believe in science!
“I’ve been working in the hospital for more than 20 years. I’m a graduate of the medical department!
“You …You’re being irresponsible for the sake of being in the limelight!”
Besides, was this something that he should be doing?!
He would have to bear the responsibilities!
Not only that!
If the patient died, they would have to bear criminal responsibility!
“What is this man trying to do?”
“I don’t know but we can’t help him”
“Who would?”
“…”
The onlookers exclaimed one after another. After all, this …
This was something serious!
Oliver Walker frowned. It was obvious that these people didn’t believe him!
To be precise, they didn’t believe in Chinese medicine!
If a Western doctor like Allie Wilson said that this man can be saved, someone would definitely offer help.
He couldn’t blame them. After all, they were just trying to protect themselves.
However, looking at the patient’s current condition, it was getting worse. He was already unconscious. If he didn’t perform the acupuncture now, there was really no way for him to save this man!
“I’ll do it!”
Suddenly, a melodious voice broke the doubts of the audience!
She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, a pair of black sweatpants, and a pair of very old canvas shoes!
Her face was filled with determination!
However, her beautiful eyes were filled with worry!
“Emilia? .
“What…..what was she doing?
“It’s fine. She’s poor anyway….”
“…”
In an instant, the crowd was shocked!
However, they quickly realised that there was indeed nothing for her to lose!
If something happened, she could go to the prison and get free food.
Their eyes went from surprise to disdain in an instant.
The look on their faces changed faster than the weather.
“Emilia!”
Oliver Walker’s heart skipped a beat. He had never expected that his wife, who was against him opening a clinic, would be willing to stand up for him in such a situation.
He could imagine that it took a lot of courage to believe him!
Other than being touched, he didn’t know what else to say. He only knew that helping the patient out of the critical period was the greatest repayment for his wife’s trust in him!
“You wanted to open a clinic right?
“Our family’s survival depends on you now!
“Do not disappoint me!”
Emilia gritted her teeth and helped the dying man up. There was blood all over her white shirt.
Of course, she knew the consequences of stepping forward to help.
It was alright if the others didn’t trust Oliver Walker but it wasn’t alright for her.
She was Oliver Walker’s wife!
She had already waited for eight long years, what else could she not give?
“En!”
Oliver Walker’s nose turned sour. He was surprised that his wife was willing to help.
After all, they were only considered familiar strangers now. They did not understand each other well enough.
His wife had suffered for the family for eight years and he could imagine how important this family was to her.
However, when he needed help, she did not hesitate.
Their relationship wasn’t as passionate as a newly-wedded couple nor as close as an old couple.
However, it was this dull relationship that they had that caused Emilia to believe in him even though she was gambling with her fate.
How could he feel touched?
Then, he took out the silver needle bag that he always carried with him. After opening it, there were at least fifty silver needles of different sizes, thickness, and length. It was a dazzling sight!
Although he couldn’t control the needles with his inner Qi and couldn’t bring the dead back to life, he could still stop the bleeding and quickly remove the blood clot.
