Chapter 566

Arielle prepared the needles and other instruments that she needed to perform the acupuncture, but
she did not begin just yet.

She crushed some herbs and added a few drops of antibiotics. Then, she soaked all her silver-plated
needles in the concoction.

After about ten seconds, she pulled out the needles, waited for the liquid on the surface of the needle
to solidify. Then, she began inserting the needles at several targeted areas.

Zachary, who had studied traditional Chanaean medicine and acupuncture under Queenie’s tutelage,
saw that Arielle was about to insert a needle into a fatal point and quickly grabbed her arm.

“What are you doing?” he yelled furiously. “Are you trying to kill the patient? Do you even know what
acupuncture point that is? If you put your needle there, it will be an instant death!”

Zachary’s hand had shot out suddenly and grabbed Arielle’s arm, almost scratching the patient’s head
in the process.

Arielle’s patience finally ran out. She turned her eyes to stare straight at Zachary.

Zachary visibly shrunk away from her gaze.

“You…” Zachary hesitated, but still insisted, “Why are you looking at me like that? I’m preventing you
from



accidentally committing a murder! You will kill the patient if you stick your needle there!”



Arielle yanked her hand away from him and said in a deadpan voice, “Thank you for your kind warning,
but there’s really no need for that. The acupoint I’m inserting the needle in is not the fatal point. Please
do not bother me while I’m performing acupuncture.”

“You…” Zachary said anxiously. “This patient is very important to us! We can’t afford to have anything
go wrong!”

Arielle lost her patience and said simply to the attending physician, “He is too distracting; get him out of
here.”

“Uh…” The attending physician glanced sheepishly at Zachary.

Zachary was a much more well-known doctor than the attending physician. However, this was not
Rocher Private Hospital. This was a public hospital, and here, everybody answers to the attending
physician.



The physician recalled that Vinson had requested him to help Arielle in any way he can and said
through gritted teeth, “Dr. Ziegler, you should not be distracting Ms. Moore! Mr. Nightshire knows what
he was doing when he sent her here. Even if you don’t trust in her medical

skills, you should have faith in Mr. Nightshire!”

Zachary clamped his jaw and said, “Fine! I won’t say another word, but let me make it clear that I’ll take
no responsibility for what happens to this patient! I’ll have



nothing to do with this at all! It’ll all be your fault!”



Is she really going to stick that needle in there? These people are all fools! Idiots! I won’t let these
people drag me into hot water together with them! Zachary thought angrily to himself.

He did want to stay in the emergency room any longer. He whirled around, pressed the switch on the
lower right side of the door with his foot, and strode huffily out of the room.

The attending physician turned his anxious eyes on Arielle. “Ms. Moore, do you want me to ask Dr.
Ziegler to come back in? He’s the top surgeon at Rocher Private Hospital. He’ll be of great help if
something bad were to happen!”

“No need,” Arielle replied lightly, glancing at the door that was slowly swinging shut behind Zachary’s
retreating figure. “I can do it alone. If you have other matters to attend to, you may go as well.”

The attending physician’s eyes widened in surprise. Does she mean that she doesn’t need anyone
else’s help? Is she very confident or just very arrogant?

In the end, the attending physician decided that Arielle was just very confident in her skills.

Well, since she’s so sure of her herself, I should stick around and watch how she deals with this snake
venom. Maybe I could learn a thing or two from her..

All eyes were trained on Arielle. Some of them wanted to see her fail, but even more of them wanted to
see how she would neutralize the venom.
