Chapter 1221
After a long pause, Lucian tamped down the emotions in his eyes and said calmly, “I’ve asked the
specialists to check on you. They’ll be here soon.” No sooner had he said that, several specialists
came rushing over.They were horrified when they saw Roxanne sitting up in the hospital bed. “Ms.
Jarvis, please lie down quickly. There’s still residual toxins in your body that has yet to be flushed out.
We want to perform a check-up on you, then prescribe some targeted medication.”She was very clear-
headed when it came to her condition, and she replied, “There’s no need for that. It has been
cleared.”The others frowned, their expressions reflecting their disbelief. “How is that possible?”We all
saw for ourselves how serious her condition was yesterday. How could she have gotten better after just
one night’s sleep?Roxanne merely smiled and did not say anything.Utterly incredulous, a few of them
stepped forward to check on her.After they did so, everyone could not help but feel dumbfounded.
“This…”They could not believe that she had almost fully recovered, and there were barely any traces of
toxins left in her body.She exined to them calmly, “I performed acupuncture on myself this morning
to detoxify my body. I can sense that I’ve gotten rid of almost all of the toxins, but I don’t know whether
the little that remains will still have severe effects.”Upon hearing her reply, the specialists looked at
each other.After some time, one of them finally turned toward Roxanne with a look of admiration.
“We’ve long heard of your impressive acupuncture skills. Today, we’ve finally witnessed with our own
eyes just how amazing it is!”Initially, they nned to treat the toxins in her body slowly through
medication. None of them expected that she would seed in getting rid of most of it through a single
acupuncture treatment.Despite the shower of praise from those top specialists, Roxanne’s expression
remained unchanged. “My teacher taught me everything I know, and I’ve merely put what I learned into
practice. So, what are the results of your check-up? Do I still need treatment for the toxins in my body?”
“The remaining toxins aren’t a lot, and your body can eliminate them through metabolization,”
answered the head of the specialists. As he spoke, however, he sensed someone ring at him in
annoyance from behind. A shudder ran through his body, and he quickly added, “Nheless, I
suggest you stay at the hospital for a couple of days for observation. As you know, your conditionExclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.
yesterday after getting poisoned was quite serious.”She nodded calmly and said quietly. “Got it. Thanks
for everything you all did yesterday.”The specialists immediately waved their hands dismissively.
“That’s what we should’ve done. If there’s someone who should be thanked, it’s Mr. Farwell. He stayed
in the ward the whole time to look after you.”At that, she subconsciously nced toward the man
standing at the door to the ward.Lucian’s brows were tightly knitted, and he did not have time to drop
the worried look etched across his face.When his eyes met Roxanne’s, he looked away
nonchntly.She was surprised to see his concerned expression, and a scarlet flush crept up her
cheeks.“If there’s nothing else, we’ll be going out. Please get lots of rest these two days. Should you
need anything, feel free to let us know.” Noticing the peculiar atmosphere between the pair, the
specialists quickly excused themselves.Returning to her senses, she smiled at them and watched as
they left.Soon, Lucian and Roxanne were the only ones left in the ward.She had finally managed to
compose herself, but after that remark the specialist made, her emotions were all over the ce again,
and she was at a loss for words.Lucian also seemed lost in thought and was silent for a long time.To
cover up the panic she felt inwardly, she took her phone from the table and nced at it. As soon as
she did so, she saw on the screen that she had nearly twenty missed calls. More than half of them
were from Archie and Benny, while the rest were from Jack.
