Chapter 587

“Drink it.” James looked at the wavering Delilah.

Delilah took a deep breath. Then, she swallowed the glass of water in one gulp.

It was bitter. The moment she swallowed the water, she felt her throat burn. The pain was excruciating.

In just a short amount of time, her smooth and fair skin had turned a bright red.

Thud!

The glass fell to the ground.

Delilah collapsed on stage. Clutching her throat with her hands, she convulsed on the floor.

“It burns! Help! It’s so painful! I’m dying!”

James swiftly crouched down. He grabbed her wrist and took her pulse. Then, he observed her

expression and opened her eyelids.

The whole process took less than thirty seconds.

“Help her up and hold her still.”

James ordered urgently.

Immediately, a few of the female staff walked over to Delilah and held her still.

James stood up and grabbed a few silver needles from the table.

He swung his hand and the silver needles flew out of his hands.

One… Two… Three…

In the blink of an eye, silver needles were all over Delilah’s body.

“What?!”

The experienced doctors below the stage all stood up and exclaimed in shock.

They had been in the field for decades and were familiar with all kinds of acupuncture treatments, yet

had never witnessed something like this. How was he able to accurately insert the needles into

Delilah’s acupuncture points by flinging the needles from a meter away?

James’ performance stupefied them.

Some even got on stage to have a clearer view.

James used the silver needles to block the meridians and acupuncture points in Delilah’s body to

prevent the poison from spreading.

At the same time, he used the silver needles as some sort of sedative to ease her pain.

Delilah’s pain slowly subsided.

It was not over yet. Drops of dark, black, sweat formed on her forehead. They flowed down from her

cheeks to her neck and dripped to the floor.

James clenched his teeth seeing this development.

“What a terrifying poison.”

James was surprised by Jonathan’s poison.

Jonathan was not bluffing when he claimed that the poison would kill a person in three minutes.

“How do you feel?”

James looked at Delilah.

“M-Much better,” Delilah said weakly.

“Okay.”

James nodded and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve already used the silver needles to block your meridians and

acupuncture points. Your blood flow should have slowed down significantly. This will allow you to last

an additional ten minutes. In the meantime, I will definitely release all the toxins in your body.”

“Mmm.”

Delilah nodded.

She had no other option but to have faith in James.novelbin

James grabbed another handful of needles. Then, he took the alcohol and the lighter and handed them

to the staff.

“Allow me.” A voice piped up.

It came from Christine who was getting on the stage.

She walked over to James, “They aren’t familiar with this. I’ll assist you.”

Hearing this, the staff handed the alcohol, lighter, and other equipment to her.

James walked over to Delilah’s back.

He noticed the bra straps and made a face.

The bra straps would get in the way of his treatment.
