Female Novel
Chapter 1369
Neera lightly tapped the needle tip against Nicole's skin. “Do you feel that? I'm not joking around. You, of allpeople, come from a family of doctors. You should know I'm not lying. If I insert this needle deeply into thismeridian point, you will become completely incapacitated.”
As she spoke, she kept a firm grip on Nicole, the silver needle gradually moving backward, coming to a halt on aspecific meridian point.
Sweat trickled down Nicole's face. She was clearly taken aback by the unexpected turn of events.
She clenched her teeth tightly, staring intently at the person in front of her. “You dare?”
Neera looked down at Nicole from a high position, her face adorned with an indifferent smile, and she calmlyretorted. “Do you think I dare not? Nicole, I've already given you a chance. Out of respect for Mr. Meyer, I didn'twant to make things too awkward, but you've provoked me time and time again. If I were to let you have yourway today, wouldn't that make me a pushover? I warned you just now, but you still didn't back off. So, I have nochoice but to defend myself in this way.”
As she spoke, she cast a glance at the four people around her.
Among them, two people wanted to move but couldn't, and another two wanted to move but didn't dare to.
She slowly withdrew her gaze, her voice suddenly dropping a few notches, carrying a hint of danger. “My silverneedle has always been used to heal and save lives, never to harm. Nicole, I don't mind if you become the firstexception.”
Cold sweat trickled down Nicole's forehead. Through gritted teeth, she managed to squeeze out a question. “Whatdo you want?”
Neera looked at Nicole as if the latter was a fool. “Don't you know what I want? If you don't want to spend therest of your life in bed, then have your people take the heart out now.”
Nicole was extremely unwilling. Gritting her teeth, she said, “Neera, aren't you afraid that the Meyer family willbe furious with what you're doing?”
Neera raised her delicate eyebrow. “What should I be afraid of? I'm not the one who's done something wrong.Instead, you should think about how you're going to explain your actions to Mr. Meyer. I believe, as a righteousdoctor, he won't condone your behavior.”
After she finished speaking, she glanced at the time, her patience wearing thin. novelbin
“All right, I don't have much time. Make a decision quickly. Do you want to settle this matter honestly, or do youwant to spend the rest of your life as a good-for-nothing?” As she spoke, she added, “You don't need to intimidateme with your Meyer family. You started this. I was merely defending myself. Even if you end up disabled, I doubtanyone from the Meyer family would dare to confront me for justice.”
Nicole's face was growing increasingly pale.
In the end, all she could do was grit her teeth and instruct her two injured subordinates to do as Neera hadsuggested.
The people sent by Jean had been waiting under the tree opposite the villa.
Upon seeing someone carrying a box, they didn't waste any time. They immediately sprang into action, rushingover at lightning speed, and apprehended the two individuals.
One of them even rushed into the villa, and upon seeing that Neera was safe and sound, he felt a wave of relief.
Seeing that the situation was already settled, Neera chose not to persist any longer. After letting go of Nicole, shegave the latter a mocking glance before quickly leaving.
After the ordeal, Nicole sat on the couch, listening to the sound of the car engine, her face as pale as paper.
A deep hatred surged in her eyes, overflowing with intensity. She clenched her fists tightly, gritting her teeth inanger as she said, “Neera, you just wait. This isn't over between us!”
At that moment, Neera, sitting in the car, shivered all over.
She didn't pay it any mind. As she thought about what had just happened, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
Thankfully, her previous practice with Finnley was proving useful, which was a pleasant surprise indeed.
The car sped along the road, covering a half-hour journey in just twenty minutes, and quickly reached itsdestination.
Jean was waiting at the door. Seeing her get out of the car, he quickly stepped down the stairs, grabbed hershoulders, and meticulously studied her. “Are you hurt? Are you okay?”
Neera smiled. “How can I not be? Don't worry, I'm doing great.”
After confirming that she was truly all right, Jean was relieved.
Neera pulled him along. “Let's not talk about anything else for now. Now that we have the heart, I'll go find adoctor. We need to quickly conduct a compatibility test. If there are no issues, we'll arrange the surgery as soon aspossible.”
Next, Neera became busy.
Although she wasn't an expert in heart transplant surgeries, she had some experience and thus, became a part ofFrederic's medical team.
Fortunately, the heart was a very good match, with minimal rejection reaction.
Once it was confirmed that Frederic's physical condition could withstand a lengthy surgery, he was transferredfrom the intensive care unit to the operating room the following day.
Wrenn, Jean, and the three triplets were waiting at the door, and they ended up waiting for seven hours.
As Neera followed the attending physician out, everyone waiting in the hallway stood up. They hurriedlyapproached, their faces filled with anticipation and anxiety, afraid they might hear some bad news.
Wrenn's lips trembled, her heart pounding as she cautiously asked, “Doctor, Neera, how is it? Is he all right?”
Jean's face was devoid of any expression. His gaze passed over the doctor, landing directly on Neera. The look inhis eyes was deep and complex.
Neera understood his concerns. She took off her mask, took a deep breath, and nodded at him with a grin.
