Chapter 190
The Billionaire’s Maid Bride
Staring at the young girl in front of him, Steve felt a sudden calm, quickly responding. âThe old man had heart bypass surgery and high blood pressure, so he needs to take blood pressure tablets every day, heartâprotecting pills every week, and some other health supplements.â
âSteve, could you help clear the crowd and open the windows for ventilation?â
Taken aback for a moment, Steve nodded his head promptly agreeing. âAll rightâ
Penelope glared at Allison, seeing Steve actually doing as she instructed, she immediately questioned, âSteve, why are you listening to her? Sheâs just blindly directing! The old man needs to be handled with extreme care in his current state!â
Steve hesitated, his gaze shifting towards Lucian, âMr. Lindberg, looking at the current situationâ¦â
Meanwhile, Allisonâs cool and calm voice came through, âMs. Flanagan, I think you better keep quiet. If we miss the optimal timing for treatment, not even God can save himâ
âYou!â Penelope wanted to retort but was silenced by Lucianâs cold stare Lucian looked at Allison, âCan you save him?â
Allison replied, âIâll tryâ
She couldnât guarantee Cora frowned, she wasnât willing to gamble with Carterâs life, âAllison, how can you just say youâll try? If you donât have full confidence, isnât that more dangerous?â
Allison turned to her, âMadam, do you think, in his current state, heâs just waiting for an ambulance?
Wait for half an hour? She gave a faint smirk, âIn half an hour, he would be long gone.â
âYourâ Cora retorted, âHow can you speak like that!â
Allison pulled out a bag of acupuncture needles from her bag. âAm I not stating the facts?â
The Lindberg familyâs faces instantly changed.
Zachary pondered for a second. Indeed, the old man couldnât wait for an ambulance or the family doctor. Every second was crucial for Carter.
Could this girl, Allison, really save him?
âSteve, open the windowâ Lucian instructed, and the rest of us should move back a bit.â
His words signified his trust in Allison.
After checking Carterâs condition, Allison immediately began her treatment.
She learned this from her grandmother, a wellâknown local doctor. She knew all sorts of medications and was often sought after for help with stubborn illnesses.
Allison placed three needles.
Carter coughed violently and slowly opened his eyes.
Cora was overjoyed, âDadâ
âGrandpa, are you all right?â
âThank God, as long as youâre okay.â
The Lindberg family members rushed over.
Allison also sighed in relief, she had been uncertain about the old manâs condition.
Seeing him awake now, she relaxed, stood up, packed the needles back into the bag, and quietly retreated to the side.
Penelope was stunned. She hadnât expected that Allison would actually save the old man.
But at the moment, she had no time to think about Allison, and she joined everyone around Carter. The old man had narrowly escaped death; though his breathing was still somewhat rapid, his life signs had returned. His vision was still blurry. He just remembered someone saving him.
That personâs silhouette He looked at the figure vaguely The old, arious voice asked, âDid Penelope save me just now?â
At these words, Penelope was extremely embarrassed, squeezing a rigid smile on her face.
Steve said, âSir, it was Allison who saved you He helped Carter sit up. pating his chest, âSir, how are you feeling? Is there any discomfort now?â
Carter looked at Allison and gestured for her to come over. Allison walked over and asked, âDo you feel thirsty and palpitations? Sweating at the back?â
Carter nodded.
