An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1275
âDoctor! Where the fuck are the doctors?â
The bodyguards clamored fiercely, scaring the patients in the medical center. They quickly got out of the way for fear of getting into trouble.
âWhat happened?â Several of the doctors from Harmony Healers went up to them. âMove aside! Iâll handle it!â Caldwell pushed the doctors aside and stepped forward voluntarily.
âIs this Ms. Eleanor Welch from the Welch family?â he asked tentatively. âIf you know who she is, why arenât you saving her yet?â the lead bodyguard pressured.
âIâm on it!â A look of glee flashed on Caldwellâs face for a fraction of a second. It was as though he had got his hands on a treasure.
The Welch family was one of Oakvaleâs eight great families. They were filthy rich and extremely powerful. As a daughter of the Welch family, Eleanor Welch was known to be both rich and pretty.
This was Caldwellâs chance to play the hero and save the damsel in distress. He wasnât ready to pass up on such a chance! If he managed to save Eleanor, this might be his one-way ticket to success!
âWhat happened? Is Ms. Welch hurt?â Caldwell frowned when he took a good look at her. Eleanorâs face was ashen with patches of purple, and her eyes were bloodshot. Her breathing was so weak it was practically non-existent, and she had lost consciousness.
âMs. Welch had a few drinks and drove into a lake on her way home. By the time we pulled her out, she was already unconscious,â the head bodyguard quickly reported.
âHow can she drive after drinking? You guys are too careless!â Caldwell muttered. âWeâre not here for this crap! Save her, quick!â the head bodyguard barked.
âDonât panic. Sheâs just drowned. I can handle this.â
Caldwell was full of confidence. He swiftly instructed two medical students to lift Eleanor. Then, with one knee on the ground, he balanced Eleanor on her stomach over his other knee and began striking her on her back.
As he did so, he lifted her chin slightly to allow the water in her stomach to flow out. Eleanorâs condition was nothing serious. She was still breathing, and she still had a pulse. All he needed to do was to clear out the water inside her.
Harmony Healers has had several patients who had drowned before, and his mentor, Dr. Busch, had used this method on them. It took only a few minutes and worked like a charm every time.
But after quite some time, Eleanor did not seem to get any better. The head bodyguard gradually lost his cool.
âHey! Do you know what youâre doing? Why isnât Ms. Welch responding yet?â
âThatâs weird. This is how Dr. Busch used to save patients who drowned. Why isnât it working now?â Caldwell wiped the sweat off his brows, looking flustered.
He checked multiple times that he was doing it exactly how Dr. Busch had taught him. So what was the problem?
âThe patient is suffocated and is suffering from asphyxiation. Her heart will stop beating very soon. âSimply draining the water out of her isnât going to work,â Dustin remarked.
âHey! What nonsense are you spouting? Caldwell turned around to glare at Dustin. âDo you know who I am? How dare you question my medical skills?â
âIt doesnât matter who you are. What matters is that youâre using the wrong technique. If you continue with this, sheâll die,â Dustin warned.
âThatâs rubbish!â Caldwell exclaimed in a fluster.
âIâm Dr. Buschâs student, and Iâve been doing medical research for over ten years. Who are you to tell me what Iâm doing is wrong?â
âHey, young man, if you donât know what youâre saying, you shouldnât run your mouth and disturb the doctors from doing their thing.â
âThatâs right. Dr. Quinn has been Dr. Buschâs apprentice since he was a child. Heâs been working in Harmony Healers for over ten years, so heâs seen it all. He wonât have any trouble saving a patient who drowned.â
âThis is a matter of life and death. Why are you telling the professionals what to do if youâre not a doctor?â
A bunch of elderly people began berating Dustin. From their point of view, he was just a young man here to get medical aid. How dare he teach the doctors at Harmony Healers what to do? He obviously didnât know his place!
