Facade

“Who are you? Are you going to use that needle on that patient?” 

Exbeen rushed over in an attempt to pall Hera away from Mildred’s bed. 

“My sister is treating Grandma at the moment! Don’t disturb her!” Gino dashed forth to stop Eileen. 

When Eileen heard his reason, she looked even more anxious. “Is she a doctor? Does she have a medical license? 

Eileen tried to sidestep Gino to stop Hera Mildred was her patient, after all. She wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility should anything happen to Mildred under her care. 

“You don’t have to care about that! Everything’s fine as long as she can save my grandma!” 

Gins hugged Eileen’s leg right away just to stop her from moving 

Eileen was alarmed, to say the least. Unfortunately for her, Oino was quite strong for his age, so she couldn’t move an inch, thanks to his interference 

She exclaimed to Lith, “You’re the patient’s family member, aren’t you? Hurry up and stopl Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Lilith was hesitant to let Hera treat Mildred earlier. But seeing as Hera had already begun treating Mildred, Lilith didn’t waver any longer 

She walked over to stop Eleen as well while saying, “Just let her try it out.” 

“You’ve gone crazy! Absolutely nuts, I’m telling you! I can’t believe you’re willing to resort to alternative methods just to cure the patient!” 

Now that two people were actively blocking Eileen, she knew that she couldn’t get to Hera Hence, she spun on her heel and walked away. 

Gino used the opportunity to slam the door shut and lock it. 

Soon, Eileen returned with Alan Pittson, Mildred’s primary doctor. The head nurse and two security guards followed them closely as well. 

That was when they realized that the ward door was locked. 

“This is outrageous! Open up right now!” Alan roared while slapping a hand on the door. 

After that, he turned to bark an order at Eileen “Quick, look for the ward’s key!” 

“I’m not opening the door for you! My grandma has stayed here for over two months, yet you can’t even cure her! You’re such a trashy doctor!” 

Gino folded his arms in front of his chest while standing behind the door. He kept making faces at the small window on the door. 

Then, Alan spotted Hera plunging needles into the unconscious Mildred’s body. He ordered, “The patient’s life is at stake here! We can’t let them do whatever they want! We have to bust down the door right now!” 

At the same time, Hera was done inserting the final needle. She said, “Open the door.” 

The security guards rolled up their sleeves and backed away from the door. Then, they rushed forward simultaneously in hopes of busting the door down. 

However, the door was opened from the inside at that moment, resulting in the guards rushing through thin air. Both of them ended up tripping and falling to the floor. 

Shocked, the head nurse quickly moved to help them up. 

“Pet!” Gino couldn’t help but giggle 

Alan flashedhima glare before striding into the ward furiously. 

“Who gave you permission to do whatever you want here?” he growled out while attempting to push Hera away. 

But Hera was quick to glance at him. “Use your words, not your fists” 

Her gaze was extremely icy. For some reason, Alan had a feeling that she was silently warning him to back off. 

“You little. 

At that moment, Mildred, who was supposed to be unconscious, inhaled sharply. Her eyes flew open in the next second, signifying that she was awake. 

The first thing she saw was Hera and the siber needle she happened to be toying with. That was when Mildred noticed the erect needles poking out of her body and arms, which pissed her off greatly. 

“You brad! How dare you stab me with needles! You must really have a death wish!” 

Mildred tumed the air blue with curses as she attempted to get out of bed. 

“Mom, calm down! You fainted just now! Hera was the one who woke you up!” Lilith quickly appeased Mildred. 

“Mrs. Everett Senior, there are still needles sticking out of your body. Don’t move around, lest you hurt yourself.” 

Alan quickly held Mildred down as well. “Don’t get angry just yet. Are you feeling unwell anywhere? 

As he spoke, he tried to remove one of the needles. Suddenly, a slender hand shot out to grab his wrist. It was so strong that he found it difficult to free his wrist from its grip. 

Alan turned to see Hera’s gorgeous face. At the moment, she looked cold and aloot. 

“The needles need to stay where they are for half an hour,” she stated. 

Hera sounded so firm that Alan wondered if she truly knew acupuncture.
