Chapter: 532

Feeling guilty, Sheri stood beside Shelton and whispered, “Shelton, isn't the Supernatural Doctor in the office? Should we ask her to take a look at Doug?"

Doug's condition stirred concern among other researchers, all anxious about his fate.

"Oh, it's so unfortunate. He's going to lose his hand, isn't he?" one remarked.

"Look at his hand. It's barely holding on. It won't be reattached," another lamented.

“I can't bear to look at Doug's wound. I can't imagine being in his shoes," a third added.

Each comment deepened Doug's pain, both physical and emotional. Numb with pain, he couldn't feel his hand, even though it remained attached. He couldn't control it either. Was amputation really inevitable?

Sheri's suggestion about having the Supernatural Doctor treat Doug left Shelton uncertain. Would the Supernatural Doctor, having treated numerous eminent and notable figures, treat an ordinary man like Doug?

Shelton wasn't sure. Rumors swirled about the Supernatural Doctor's exorbitant fees reaching a staggering ten million, a sum far beyond what Doug or the institute could afford.

"Just go and ask," Sheri urged Shelton. "This could be a chance to see the Supernatural Doctor's remarkable skills!"

Shelton was intrigued by the Supernatural Doctor's top-notch medical skills. Word had it that her medical prowess bordered on the miraculous, like an angel's touch, and she was capable of healing people in minutes.

Torn with uncertainty, Shelton spotted Norah standing behind the crowd. His eyes lit up at the sight of her, and he approached her.

“Supernatural Doctor, could you please see Doug's injury? Is there anything you can do?" he implored.

The medicine researchers were at a loss about how to handle Doug's injury. Fearful of making things worse, they hadn't dared to touch it.

Norah examined Doug's wound and nodded. "I can treat it."

Shelton's face lit up with hope. With the Supernatural Doctor's assurance, there was hope for saving Doug's hand.

"But my consultation fee is rather high, and I charge based on the severity of the condition. You're aware of this, aren't you?" Norah added.

Shelton's joyful expression faltered upon hearing this, and his brows furrowed with concern. "The consultation fee... How much will it be?

And what about the treatment for Doug's wound? How much will that cost?" Shelton asked, his teeth gritted with worry. If the institute could afford it, he was willing to pay.

Norah quoted the standard market rates for both the consultation and the treatment.

Shelton breathed a sigh of relief. The institute could afford the fees. "Please, check on Doug!" he pleaded earnestly.

Their conversation was hushed, so the researchers standing farther away couldn't discern their words. They observed in amazement as the woman in black approached Doug and delicately examined his injured hand.

Suddenly, Sheri pointed at Norah and exclaimed, "The Supernatural Doctor is going to treat Doug's injury! She will definitely cure Doug's wound!"

While Norah attended to Doug's injury, Sheri deliberately announced that Norah was none other than Supernatural Doctor.

The buzz about Supernatural Doctor sent a wave of excitement throughout the research institute. Researchers found it hard to keep their minds on their tasks, swept up in the fervor.
