Chapter 237 Promise To Help
At that moment, Natalie finally understood why Lawrence would help Liliana to break through the firewall set up by Xavian.
She must have used his wife’s life to threaten him to hack the firewall and find out Natalie’s information.
This is too terrifying!
Instinctively, Natalie took a step back.
Liliana was once a victim. She hated Julian’s drastic measures the most, but in order to achieve her goals, she was doing the same thing as the man she hated.
This pretty woman in front of me is either insane or ill. If I use the word “death” and provoke her, both Cecilia and I might die in her hands. Cecilia was involved because of me. I must save her.
“Dr. Nichols, have you decided?” inquired Liliana.
“I promise to treat him.”
“That’s great!”
In the blink of an eye, Liliana’s expression changed. She was ferocious a second ago, and in the next, she was as charming and cute as a little girl.
“Dr. Nichols, I knew you’re a kind-hearted person with excellent medical skills.”
After taking a few deep breaths, Natalie piped up, “He can’t take medicine orally in this situation, so I can only burn incense and try to cure him using his sense of smell coupled with my acupuncture. The
medicinal ingredients used to burn the incense are tremendously important, and most of them are expensive.”
Waving her hand, Liliana proclaimed, “You only need to tell me what you need. It doesn’t matter how expensive they are.”
“All right.”
Natalie took the paper and pen on the coffee table, pondered over it for a long time, and wrote down her prescription.
There were as many as twenty kinds of medicinal ingredients in the prescription.
Natalie wrote down the dragonblood fruit as the thirteenth ingredient.
Soon, Liliana summoned Milton, and Natalie gave the prescription list to the middle-aged man.
He took over the paper and said respectfully to Liliana, “Please don’t worry. I’ll get all the ingredients in this prescription ready by tomorrow.”
“Thank you.” Liliana flashed him a charming smile. “Soon, Josiah won’t have to sleep in such a cold place anymore.”
“Your wish will definitely come true,” replied Milton.
Natalie could understand that Liliana fell into paranoia because Josiah’s death was too much for her to handle. However, judging from the butler’s reaction, he seemed to be clear-headed. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
But why is he seemingly accustomed to having such a conversation with Liliana? Could it be that Liliana also held someone important to him as a hostage? That’s why he has no choice but to put on an act to please her?
When Milton noticed that Natalie was looking at him, he smiled politely at her.
“Dr. Nichols, the medicinal ingredients will be available tomorrow. You should stay here tonight. I’ve prepared a room for you.”
“Thank you.”
After that, the butler exited the room.
Glancing at Liliana, who was full of smiles, Natalie requested, “During acupuncture, I want to see my friend. If I can’t see her, I won’t perform acupuncture on the patient.”
“Okay.” Liliana nodded. “You should go and have some rest. I’ll stay here and keep Josiah company. After he wakes up, I’ll leave the Todd residence and go to his hometown to see the sea of clouds.”
Natalie fixed her gaze on the pathetic and terrifying woman in front of her.
If she had put aside her grudges and left the Todd residence with Josiah back then, would she be much happier now? But how can she forget that kind of heart-piercing pain? No matter what choice she made, she would regret it in the end.
