The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean)

Chapter 14



Neera nearly laughed out loud when she heard that.

It was the first time in her life someone had doubted her skills!

She had to admit that doctors of medicine were indeed skilled, but when she was abroad, many doctors of medicine had to ask for her advice!

She said mockingly, "Yes, acupuncture might be a pseudoscience, but what gives you the confidence to say I'm a scammer? If you're so skilled, why would he almost die from a regular fever? His condition wouldn't be so terrible if you were a better doctor!"

"You!" The woman's face went taut. "What do you know? I've spent so much effort to stabilize his condition, and our team has worked sleepless nights to make sure he survives! A quack doctor wouldn't know anything!"

"You're right. I don't know how to mess up this badly!" Neera did not show the woman any mercy.

The woman's face turned red from anger. The other doctors behind her seemed displeased too.

Ian tried to defuse the situation. "Dr. Bridges and Dr... Miss, let's not quibble over each other's qualifications when we have a life to save!"

Ian's heart was already at his throat. He could not stand the two women standing around arguing with each other.

Neera turned to look at him. "So what's your decision? Are you going to let her remove the needles or let me continue my procedure? If you trust her that much, I don't mind leaving now... Don't come and beg me if anything happens to him though."

Ian was at a loss for what to do. How was he going to choose?

To be frank with himself, he trusted Dr. Joanna Bridges more than Neera.

After all, Dr. Bridges had been working with them for a longer time.

However, the mother of the three adorable children was right. Dr. Bridges could not improve Jean's situation.

If she could, the Beauvort family would not have to resort to searching for the legendary Dr. Nancy!

While Ian was about to lose his mind over the decision, Neera said, "I promise your employer will recover in twenty minutes maximum! I wonder if this 'doctor of medicine' can promise that?"

Everyone at the scene was shocked when they heard that.

Joanna was the first to come to her senses. She said mockingly, "Can't you tell a more convincing lie? Usually, Sire will be out of commission for days whenever he has a fever! Twenty minutes? Are you kidding me?"

Neera shot her a disdainful glance. "Don't think that everyone is as useless as you are. You'd better not tell anyone else you're a doctor of medicine. That's an insult to everyone with that title."

"Fine!" Joanna's face was scrunched up from anger. "If you're so skilled, I'm not going to do anything. I'd like to see how you can wake Sire up in twenty minutes!"

She turned to speak to Ian, "If anything happens to Sire, you'll be my witness. I don't want his parents to blame me!"

She went to a corner, leaned against the wall, and folded her arms.

Ian was extremely anxious when he saw that. He wondered why they could not join hands and treat Jean. After all, a life was at stake.

It was too late for him to say anything, so he could only pace the room in circles anxiously.

Eighteen minutes passed. Jean remained motionless on the bed.

Joanna wanted to mock Neera. Before she could open her mouth, Neera stood up, went over to the bed, and removed the needles one by one.

Soon, all the silver needles were removed.

However, Jean remained motionless.

"See that, Ian? That's the 'miracle doctor' you placed your trust in!" Joanna said.

Neera shot a glance at her and said calmly, "What's the rush?"

She took out a pill from her medical kit and popped it into Jean's mouth.

A few seconds later, everyone heard a cough.

The unconscious man on the bed was slowly waking up!
