Chapter 515

Inside the hospital, James sat down.

“Thea, take my shirt off.”

“Okay.”

Thea obeyed.

“And my pants.”

“What?”

Thea was stunned, and she blushed. “Honey, what are you doing?”

“Just do it.”

“Alright then.”

Thea removed James’ pants. He was only in his underwear.

“Get the silver needles ready.”

“Okay.”

Thea quickly prepared the silver needles.

The Callahans walked in, looking with confusion at the nearly-naked James.

Tommy mocked him. “James, you piece of trash. What are you doing now?”

James ignored Tommy.

Soon, Thea returned with the silver needles. “Here are the silver needles, honey.”

James asked, “Thea, do you remember the book I showed you on meridians and acupuncture points?

Do you still remember how the points are distributed?”

“No, not really.”

“Can you please get the book?”

Thea did not know what James was planning to do, but Eternality Hospital had plenty of books like that.

Quickly, she tried to locate one of them.

After that, she brought it to James.

“Now, pick up a silver needle and follow my instructions. Stick it where I tell you to.

“Alright, stick it in here. Not too deep. Just for the tip to go in.”

Thea had never done acupuncture before. After hearing what James said, she picked up a silver

needle and flipped through the book to determine the accurate location. She held the needle in her

hand, not daring to do it.

“Honey, I-I’m scared.”

“Don’t worry. Just do it.”

Thea took a deep breath and carefully stuck a needle into James.

“Then here, here, and here…”

James kept instructing her.

Thea checked with the book each time before she pinpointed the accurate locations on James. She

only put the needles in after she was sure.

Time ticked by slowly.

Soon, James was full of silver needles.

He was a strange sight with wonky needles sticking out of him everywhere.

“A-and now, honey?”

James closed his eyes.

He was gauging the speed of his blood flow.

“Darling, pinch my wrist. Pinch it hard for five seconds, and then release it…”

James kept instructing Thea.

Thea followed his instructions.

Slowly, the needles drew out some blue liquid.

It was the poison he ingested earlier on. Using the needles, he blocked the acupressure points to expel

the poison.

“All done. Take the needles out.”

“Okay.”

Thea removed the needles quickly.

Once all the needles were removed, James stood up and moved his body.

He was still a little stiff, but he was feeling much better.

He picked up a pen and paper and scribbled down a prescription hastily. Passing it to Thea, he said,

“Please help get these ingredients for me and prepare a concoction. I’ll be fine by tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Thea nodded. Then, she frowned. “All the doctors have left. I don’t know how to do it.”

“I’ll do it.”

Lex, who had been observing, approached.novelbin

Lex was once a doctor. Even though he was not an expert, he still knew his way around medicine.

Everyone else looked at James.

What was he trying to do?

“James, what…” John could not help but ask.

James smiled. “Someone tried to stop me from attending the medical conference and forced me to

ingest poison. I lost my sense of smell and my movements were restricted temporarily.”
