CHAPTER 132: CHAPTER 132: THE SLAP CAME TOO FAST

Zachary Quinn and Melody Quinn, upon hearing this, changed their expressions once again.

Lord Fitzgerald...

It was only at this moment that they remembered.

During dinner, indeed someone had called and recommended a doctor.

But at that time, the siblings were busy entertaining Brooke Sinclairs and Jordan Hawthorne, so they didn’t pay much attention to it.

After Elder Quinn took the medicine and his condition improved, they completely forgot about it.

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Zachary Quinn’s forehead.

Even someone instructed by Jasper Fitzgerald to not neglect, what had the two of them done???

Zachary Quinn quickly apologized again, "Dr. Hayes, I apologize once again for our earlier rudeness. No matter how you want us to make amends afterward, we will comply, but can you please, for Fitzgerald’s sake, save my grandfather first, I’m begging you!"

Melody Quinn’s expression at this moment was naturally quite spectacular too.

She didn’t expect that the person she looked down upon and made things difficult for, would be the miraculous doctor whom that person introduced.

She was accustomed to arrogance and found it hard to bring herself to apologize.

Sabrina had clearly no good feelings towards these two.

Especially Melody Quinn!

If she could, she would have turned and left.

But considering the promise she made to Jasper Fitzgerald, she suppressed her displeasure.

She just didn’t want him to lose an elder he valued, that was all!

"Lead the way."

Sabrina quickly said to the butler.

The butler didn’t dare to delay and respectfully led her inside.

Zachary Quinn noticed her indifference, let out a bitter laugh, and hurriedly followed.

As for Brooke, she started to feel a bit uneasy.

The medicine came from Sabrina, she mentioned there was a problem earlier, and now the elder really was showing symptoms...

If it were all true, how would she deal with the situation on her end?

After all, her reputation was already at stake.

Most importantly... if Jordan found out she had stolen the formula, how would she cover it up?

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. Brooke intended to pull Jordan out of there.

But Jordan went inside!

Elder Quinn suddenly falling ill, regardless of whether it had anything to do with Hawthorne Group’s medicine, meant they couldn’t leave today.

Once they left, there would be no clear explanation!

Seeing the situation, Brooke could only brace herself and stay.

By this time, inside, Sabrina had already observed Elder Quinn’s condition.

As the butler described, there was sudden shock, weak breathing, and a slow heart rate—quite abnormal. The crisis was caused by the effect of the ’Calming Pill’ spreading.

Sabrina’s face was solemn, and she didn’t dare to delay, immediately beginning to treat the elder.

Zachary Quinn, worried, asked, "Dr. Hayes, will my grandfather be alright?"

Sabrina didn’t even look at him, her tone cold, "Had you let me in earlier, this wouldn’t have happened! Move aside, don’t surround him, let the air circulate in, go and open the windows, those not involved should leave, don’t interfere here!

Butler, please get some hot water and something to drink, warm water, and bring a small spoon!"

"Yes."

The butler quickly went to do so.

Taking this opportunity, Sabrina began the acupuncture.

She inserted over ten Silver Needles around the elder’s heart acupoints, including points on the face and neck.

Her movements were swift with almost no pause.

Finally finished, coincidentally, the butler brought the water.

She took it, dissolved the improved special effect medicine in the water, then fed it spoon by spoon into the elder’s mouth.

Elder Quinn was still unconscious, clearly having difficulty drinking the medicine, and much of it spilled out.

Seeing this, Zachary Quinn volunteered, "Dr. Hayes, do you need support? Let me assist?"

Sabrina glanced at him nonchalantly but didn’t refuse again, "Slightly raise the neck, don’t let the needles shift."

"Alright."

Zachary Quinn carefully complied.

At this point, the elder finally managed to drink the medicine.

Then, out of the blue, the elder suddenly coughed, and the originally weak breathing seemed to regain some strength.

The heart, which had almost stopped, gradually began beating again.

Supporting the elder, Zachary Quinn could feel this most acutely.

He widened his eyes in disbelief.

Could it be... that in such a short time, the critical situation was reversed?

Sabrina, however, didn’t seem surprised.

Although Elder Quinn had taken the medicine for over an hour, it wasn’t too long. The improved special effect medicine could not only sustain life but also give her time to treat the condition.

Later, when the needles were removed, the comatose elder suddenly awoke.

"Grandfather!!!"

Zachary Quinn was overjoyed and immediately asked, "How do you feel? Is there anywhere uncomfortable?"

Though still a bit weak, Elder Quinn could speak normally, "I... seem to be fine? Earlier, I suddenly felt dull chest pain, shortness of breath, and chest tightness, thought I was going to die! But now, I seem to feel no discomfort? Breathing is smooth, and I don’t feel short of breath."

Zachary Quinn’s eyes reddened, "This is all thanks to Dr. Hayes!"

He briefly recounted what happened tonight, including why the sudden condition occurred.

After hearing, Elder Quinn looked at Sabrina with kind eyes, "Jasper, that boy, really introduced a great doctor to me. Thank you, girl; otherwise, tonight, I might have ended up visiting The Grim Reaper!"

Sabrina didn’t have a bad impression of Elder Quinn.

His countenance was dignified, wise, yet gentle and kind, reminding her of Elder Yates.

She responded calmly, "You need not be too polite. I promised someone to save you... However, though your life is saved, due to taking the Hawthorne Group’s special medicine, heart damage still exists. More treatments will be needed to be completely fine."

Elder Quinn nodded, "Then going forward, I must trouble you. Jasper has already told me your medical skills are outstanding and you can surely resolve my predicament. Today, I was confused, believing the rumors, and took medicine that almost killed me..."

Saying this, his expression darkened, casting a sharp glance at Jordan and Brooke outside.

Brooke, already feeling guilty, shivered with fear.

Jordan, however, remained calm, "Elder Quinn, this situation wasn’t our intention. We didn’t expect the medicine would bring you such danger.

The Hawthorne Group genuinely wanted to save you, never intending you harm!

Moreover, some patients inherently react unfavorably or reject certain medicines. Perhaps your condition wasn’t suited for this particular special medicine."

Upon hearing this, Zachary Quinn immediately reminded sternly, "President Hawthorne, this is not what you said tonight; Miss Sinclairs here was always assuring us this medicine would cure my grandfather! Now, why change the statement?"

Melody Quinn, who didn’t dare to speak earlier, now also angrily retorted, "Exactly, you kept emphasizing the medicine’s absolute efficacy. We believed you, and that’s why grandfather took it. Now, you’re denying it?"

This evening, Sabrina had already swallowed a lot of anger.

This was a good opportunity to expose Brooke, one she certainly wouldn’t miss.

"I believe any medication should be checked for the patient’s rejection before being administered. Miss Sinclairs, don’t you know this?

Oh, I almost forgot, you didn’t graduate from medical school at all!"
