Chapter 73
Helen said, "Mr. Rowse, I'm a very direct person. I don't like to beat around the bush. I have to say my piece, even if it makes you unhappy!
"Let's set aside the fact that acupuncture doesn't work and look at her. She's merely a kid who hasn't even graduated high school! Do you believe she could perform acupuncture?All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
"Besides, she's so overweight. She doesn't look like she knows anything about health. They say obesity is a health condition in itself. If she were so skilled, why hasn't she managed to lose weight before coming here to make a fool of herself?"
Helen felt a sense of satisfaction after saying this. She could even picture Blake's anger and frustration when he discovered Yolanda's true nature. She could take revenge for Casey if Yolanda ended up being punished.
"Shut up! Who are you to run your mouth here?" Blake roared.
Daniel quickly intervened. "Mr. Rowse, my wife means no harm. She's just speaking her mind."
He turned to Yolanda and said, "Please don't take it personally, Ms. Henderson."
In fact, he felt the same way Helen did.
He didn't believe Yolanda knew much about medicine, and he didn't think acupuncture or traditional medicine could cure illnesses.
At the same time, Daniel was somewhat dismayed. He never expected Blake, who was usually so wise, to be caught up in such foolishness. If word got out, the underground forces might mock him!
Helen felt slightly anxious to see Blake enraged. She didn't want to anger Blake, but the thought of Yolanda fooling Blake and acting arrogant frustrated her.
"Mr. Rowse, I'm just telling the truth. She's a fraud! You can't..."
Blake slammed the table and barked, "Shut up!"
Blake trusted Yolanda not out of desperation but because Yolanda had diagnosed his condition even before he showed specific symptoms. More importantly, Yolanda already had some leverage over him, so there was no
Pel
to
fabricate stories or use his illness to deceive him.
Moreover, he overheard that a high school student named Henderson cured Mr. Carter's critical condition. That was why he pinned all his hopes on Yolanda, hoping she could heal him.
Now, Blake was worried that Yolanda might refuse to treat him because Daniel and Helen's words angered her.
"I know better than you whether she understands medicine! If you don't stop talking, I'll throw you out!"
Daniel and Helen finally fell silent, but their eyes were filled with anger and dissatisfaction as they looked at Yolanda.
At this point, Yolanda glanced at Daniel and casually asked, "Did you have frostbite when you were young?"
"Ha! Stop making things up!" Helen said with a look that suggested Yolanda was wrong. She had never known Daniel had frostbite. However, Daniel's expression changed slightly upon Yolanda's words. "How did you know?"
Helen's mouth fell open in surprise. "Honey, you had frostbite?"
Daniel nodded and replied, "It happened when I was young. I've never mentioned it to you. I fell into the ice while ice skating."
Then he looked at Yolanda with suspicion. "But how did you know I had frostbite?"
"Because you were stuck in the icy water for too long. Even though you've recovered, your body temperature is lower than usual. It's a side effect." Yolanda looked at Helen with a deep gaze. There were some things she left unsaid.
Blake, hearing this, was immediately
struck with admiration. "Ms.
Henderson, you're amazing! You can even identify frostbite from when Mr. Miller was a child. It looks likel didn't make a mistake coming you."
