Chapter 174
In the Union Clinic, Lewis lay back on the same bed he had been brought to earlier.
His condition had Improved. Aside from a slight slur in his speech, he didn’t look anything like someone who had just been at death’s door.
After leaming that Felicia saved him, he said, “Ms. Fuller, you’re truly a miracle healer. To show my gratitude, I’ll make sure the consultation fee this time is
“Don’t be so quick to celebrate,” Felicia interrupted, glancing at Olivia before she spoke again. “The reason Mr. Adler suddenly lost consciousness, comulsed, and bit his tongue was due to Illness. Someone placed a venomouscreature inside him.”
À venomous creatur? Lewis and oliviastared at her in shock. They thought, “Can something so unbelievable be real? is she lying?”
Felicia could tell from their expressions that they were skeptical
“Let me show you then. Hold out your arm,” she said.
Lewis immediately stretched out his arm and rolled up his sleeve.
She picked up a silver needle, pricked his skin, and a small drop of blood appeared. Olivia leaned in for a closer look and saw something wriggling beneath his
*Ah!” Olivia gasped. “There’s a bug in there!”
Felicia’s eyes glated “That’s the venous creature. And not just any venomous creature–It’s a rare twin venomous creature
Trembling. Lewis stammered, “Dr. Fuller, you have to help me get this this twin whatever–it’s called out! What if it starts eating my flesh or drinking my blood? What if it gets into my stomach?
No sooner had he spoken than the bug slithered toward the drop of blood, and with a quick sip, It was gone.
Olivia clasped her hands over her mouth in horror.
Lewis almost fainted at the sight. This thing was going to be the death of him!
After drinking that bit of blood, the venomous creature continged to move up his arm, eventually disappearing near his heart.
Before seeling it with his own eyes, he hadtult–belleved Felicia’s words, thinking she was just using scare tactics to drive up her consultation fee.
But now, afterwitnessing in firsthand, he was ready to fall to haltees and beg. “Ms. Fuller, please save me! Get this bug out of me—I’m so terrified that my skin is
Olivia pleaded as well, “Felicia, I’m begging you. I apologize for everything in the past. You can hit me or scold me just please, save my dad!”
Felicia shook her head. “If it were an audinary venomous creature, I’d have already removed it. But this one is the seedling of the twin venomous creature. If the seedling is removed, ‘s fatal.”
“Is.Oliviastammered. Msn’t there amy way to reit**
“There is. If he wants to live, he’ll need to find the person who placed the venomous creature on him. That person will have the primordial, and only then can I save his life.”
After a pause, Felicia offered a helpful hint, “A twin venomouscreate works by having the seedling endure twice as much pain inflicted on the primordial. In other words, someone’s using it to ensure they drag you down with them.
#Think carefully, Mr. Adler bid you have any recent contact with enemies or anyone you might’ve crossed?”
“No, absolutely not!” Lewisvourd. “I haven’t been in contact with ampone recently, let one any enemies!”
“Let’s look at this differently then,” she said calmly. “The seasoned physicians here mentioned earlier that you had issues with kidney deficiency, and that’s accurate. So, Mr. Adler, perhaps you should consider where that deficiency might have come from?”
He might not have been in contact with other people, but could he say the same about women? His face turned white, caught in utter embarrassment.
