Chapter: 13

“Ms. Harmon, I’m a busy man. I’m not going to waste any more time here. If I pull out these needles and anything happens to Old Mr. Harmon, it’ll be on me.” With that, Dr. Jansen pulled out all of the needles. 

As soon as the needles were removed, something strange happened. 

Andrew’s body began convulsing. His face began to turn black, and blood gushed out from his nose and mouth. The machines on either side of the bed began beeping. 

“What’s going on?” Dr. Jansen was surprised by the turn of events. 

“What’s this, Dr. Jansen?” Natasha frowned. 

“That’s strange, he was fine earlier…” Dr. Jansen felt uneasy. 

“Sir, the patient is coding!” 

“Quick, get the machines!” 

Without delay, Dr. Jansen began emergency resuscitation. Even after a lot of effort, Andrew did not seem to get better at all. In fact, his stats were declining uncontrollably. Dr. Jansen was panicking. 

“Ms. Harmon, I think… I think Old Mr. Harmon is… dying…” 

“What?” Both Natasha and Ruth were shocked.

“You useless thing!” Natasha was livid. She grabbed Dr. Jansen by the collar and yelled, “I told you not to remove the needles! Now that the worst has happened, this is all you have to say?” 

“No, this has got nothing to do with me!” Dr. Jansen shook his head fervently.

“It must be that other healer. His needles must have caused this to happen!” 

Natasha slapped him. 

“Stop pushing the blame on others, you bastard! I’m warning you now if anything happens to my grandfather, I’ll kill you!” 

At those words, Dr. Jansen paled. The Harmon family was powerful enough to get rid of him without anyone knowing. 

“What’s going on?” 

At that moment, Dustin entered. When he saw Andrew’s state, he frowned. 

“Didn’t I tell you not to remove the needles?” he asked with displeasure.

“Why didn’t you listen to me?” 

“Mr. Rhys, just now…” 

Before Natasha could explain, Dr. Jansen shot forward and grabbed Dustin by the collar. 

“So it’s you who placed the needles?” he shouted.

“It’s your stupid needling that caused Old Mr. Harmon to go into critical condition! You’re responsible for this!”
