Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid novel Chapter 44

Zeke patiently applied needles on Mr. Raynor's back to heal him with acupuncture.

After two minutes, Susan Raynor recovered from her shock.

Through gritted teeth, she spoke, “Shameless man, if you dare hurt my father, I'd demand you pay with your life.”

Daniel was sweating anxiously as he cried out, “Zeke, stop, stop quickly. You do not have the ability to help him. To treat cerebral infarction, the only way is to do a craniotomy. Any other action may cost him his life!”

The moment Daniel spoke, Zeke stopped.

However, he stopped not because of Daniel's order but because he had finished his treatment.

He was very satisfied with this acupuncture and walked to Lacey with a smile on his face. “Lacey, please pour me a glass of water.”

Lacey glared at him in anger and ignored his request.

At that point, there was no movement or sound from Mr. Raynor. She thought he had died.

Susan, too, thought the same.

She turned beet red and gritted her teeth in anger. “Zeke, I want you to die. Your whole family, too. Dad, don't you worry. I'll avenge you!”

At this moment, the motionless Mr. Raynor suddenly opened his eyes.

“Susan, what's going on? What happened just now?”

Oh!

After that exclamation, the group was suddenly silent.

Mr. Raynor isn't dead. He's just awoken!

This young man had turned death into a miracle of life with just a silver needle and healed the condition that only a craniotomy could save?

A miracle! This was indeed a miracle!

Susan Raynor rushed to her father's side, weeping and crying. “Dad, you're awake... I was so frightened just now. I thought you were...”

“Dad, how do you feel now?”

Mr. Raynor closed his eyes, trying to concentrate on his feelings.

After a moment, he opened eyes wide, and they shone with joy.

“Unbelievable, unbelievable... I don't feel a headache anymore! There is some pain on my scalp like needle pricks, but it's nothing compared to the pain of sensory nerves I've suffered before.”

Zeke laughed scornfully, “There are so many needles stuck on your scalp. That's why you feel the needle pricks.”

Lawrence quickly came to his senses. He went forward to bow and cried out, “Mr. Raynor, congratulations! At first, I was thinking of just trying my acupuncture technique on you. I never thought it would really work. Don't move, I'll remove all the silver needles I've inserted just now.”

Lawrence was trying to take all the credit for himself.

Mr. Raynor looked at Lawrence Herbert in gratitude, “Mr. Herbert, you sure are a Divine Doctor! I... I don't know how to thank you enough. If there's anything you need, I will not refuse you in the future.”

Lawrence and William Herbert were so happy they could cry.

However, Zeke snorted, “Mr. Raynor, you're thanking the wrong person.”

Mr. Raynor scolded Zeke, “Who are you? How dare you speak so rudely to me!”

Zeke said, “I'm the one who just saved your life. It was I who used acupuncture to bring you back to life. If not for me, Lawrence Herbert would have killed you with his needles.”

Lawrence Herbert said furiously, “You... you're talking nonsense! It was I who performed acupuncture on Mr. Raynor and healed him of his headache. You don't even have a medical degree. The needles you used had no effect.”

Zeke sneered, “Why don't you ask Mr. Raynor, which needle inserted caused him so much pain that he fainted. Furthermore, ask him which needle inserted healed him from unconsciousness.”

Susan Raynor suddenly realized something and asked, “Father, do tell us, how did the acupuncture affect you?”

Lawrence Herbert had inserted needles on his scalp while Zeke' acupuncture had been done on his back.

Once it has been made clear which needle had awoken him, the truth would be known.
