Chapter 86: Chapter 86

Chapter 86 Owen said slowly, "Wait, I’m just a little puzzled. I’ve been wearing this string of rosary beads for a long time. I didn’t expect there would be a problem."

Danielle’s gaze landed on Owen. She couldn’t shake off the feeling that he made her feel a great sense of familiarity, but she could not tell where she had seen him before.

This man looked young and exuded a mature and steady vibe. Sometimes, he spoke with a bit of a roguish attitude, but for some reason, Danielle did not want to see anything bad happen to him.

"You’ve been poisoned, and you don’t have long to live," Danielle said, shooting him a cold glance.

"What?" Liam said, skeptical of Danielle’s words. "Are you saying our boss has been poisoned? No way. Our boss is usually very cautious."

"Are you saying that my bracelet caused me to be poisoned?" Owen asked. He deduced from Danielle’s words that the source of the poison was the bracelet. ’But this bracelet has been brought back from a church, he thought.

"Give me your hand, and I’ll take your pulse?" Danielle said.

Danielle’s sense of smell was sharper than average people’s. She had indeed detected the scent of poison in this bracelet, and with her keen observation of Owen, she made the connection.

"You’re a traditional medicine practitioner?" Owen asked skeptically. "You can also take pulses?"

"If you don’t believe it, forget it," David said. "Danielle, let’s not treat him and just let him fend for himself."

David couldn’t wait to go home. He didn’t want Danielle to waste time on another man who didn’t appreciate it.

"What’s your problem?" Owen said, feeling somewhat speechless. "You don’t even allow people to ask questions. What an awful temper." Then, he took on the role of an elder, advising Danielle, all the while taking jabs at David. "Young lady, is he your boyfriend? This kind of man has a bad temper and is prone to be abusive after marriage. Look at you, with your delicate arms and legs."

"Say that again?" David said.

His face darkened completely. ’How dare he openly ruin my image in front of Danielle?’ he thought.

"Young lady, hurry up and take my pulse," Owen said.

"If you don’t want to let me take your pulse, I’m leaving," Danielle said. "And by the way, his temper is great."

She was really speechless, thinking, ’He’s about to be poisoned to death, yet he still has the time to meddle in other people’s business.

"I’ll let you treat me," Owen said, handing his hand to Danielle. "Why would I refuse to let you treat me?"

David was secretly delighted because Danielle defended him.

Danielle placed her slender fingers on Owen’s pulse and frowned as she said, "As expected."

Owen thought, ’It’s said that what patients fear the most during a doctor’s consultation is seeing the doctor frown. Could it be that I really have been poisoned?’

"Is there a problem?" he asked.

Owen was a little curious. Ever since Danielle mentioned he had been poisoned, he had felt uncomfortable all over, though he wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination.

After taking his pulse, Danielle was now certain that this man had been deeply poisoned.

When she took his pulse earlier, the closer she got, the stronger the strange scent from the bracelet became.

"Your bracelet is the source of your poisoning," she said. "Can’t you smell the strange scent coming from it?"

Owen brought the bracelet closer and sniffed it. Indeed, he smelled a bit of a strange scent.

"There’s a bit," he said. "Could this scent be the poison?"

"Give me a knife," Danielle said coldly.

Owen handed Danielle the knife he usually carried with him.

Danielle then took the knife, aimed it at one of the rosary beads, and cut it.

Liam’s eyes widened, thinking, ’This young lady is really strong.’

The rosary bead was cut in half, and the fragrance was very strong. Sure enough, white powder could be seen in the middle of the bead.

"The white powder in the middle is the poison," Danielle said. "In less than two weeks, you’ll die from organ failure, and it’ll never occur to you that there’s something wrong with this string of rosary beads."

Danielle cut open the rest of the rosary beads. As expected, each one contained poison.

Danielle had to acknowledge that the person who poisoned him had clearly planned it meticulously and with great care. If it were anyone else, even people with some medical knowledge, it would probably have been difficult to detect the clue.

After all, this poison was extremely subtle, and its toxicity manifested very slowly. If it was not carefully observed and analyzed by professionals, there was no way to notice anything unusual.

Owen’s face darkened intensely. He thought, ’Damn, these people are asking for trouble. They actually used such a trick.

"Young lady, I’m sure you can treat me since you can tell at a glance that I’ve been poisoned, right?" he asked.

"I can treat you," Danielle said. "Lie down first, and I’ll administer acupuncture."

Owen showed full cooperation and lay down as Danielle instructed.

Danielle then took out a needle case and pulled out silver needles from it.

Liam was dumbfounded when he saw the silver needles. He thought, ’Everyone has to go through a scan when they enter. How were they brought in without being noticed?’

"Young lady, how did you bring these silver needles in?" he asked. "How did you avoid the security scan?"

Danielle looked at the silver needles in her hand. Only then did she catch on to Liam’s words.

"Oh, I hacked into your system and blocked the signal," she said.

"You, you even hacked into our system," Liam said, Somewhat incredulous, he thought, ’Our system is highly secure. The point is that we weren’t even aware.

Owen shot Liam a glare and said, "You have to reflect on why you people didn’t even notice that the system has been hacked."

Then, he said generously to Danielle, "Young lady, I’ll transfer this casino to you later. You can come directly next time."

"I don’t want it," Danielle said. "I’m not trying to remove your poison for this little casino. Lie down first."

Liam thought, ’What nonsense? A little casino? Young lady, do you want to take a look at the daily turnover...

Danielle took the silver needles and placed them on several energy points.

After waiting for five minutes, she started to remove the needles.

As soon as Danielle finished removing the needles, Owen spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his face turned much paler.

"You’ll be fine after spitting out blood a few more times," she said. "Take this pill. The poison will be completely removed from your body in three days."

Danielle took out the Miracle Antidote she had made from a small bottle, poured it into Owen’s palm, and said, "Half an hour later, the pain in your body will be gone."

"Do you really know medicine?" Owen said.

He suddenly realized that the girl in front of him had a cold exterior but a warm heart. She was kind-hearted, skilled, and appeared to have impressive medical skills.

"What’s this little pill?" he asked. "Is it for sale? Should I take more?"

Danielle was completely speechless. ’Who on earth is willing to take more medicine?’ she thought.

"This medicine isn’t on the market yet," she said. "You just need to take one pill."

Danielle put away the needle case and placed it in her bag.

David then took the backpack very spontaneously from her.

Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David)

Chapter 85 "Young lady, wait a minute," Owen said. "Sign this contract, and this casino will be yours from now on. Thank you for helping me remove the poison."

"I really don’t need it," Danielle said, politely rejecting his good intentions. "It’s not that I save people for things like this."

"Alright. Here’s my business card. If there’s anything you need my help with, feel free to ask."

"Okay."

Danielle took the business card and shoved it into her bag without even looking at it.

David then pulled Danielle out of the private room. As Owen looked in the direction Danielle left, that sense of closeness that felt familiar swept over him again.
