Chapter 521
As Isabella and Draxton exchanged glances, their gazes simultaneously shifted toward Jared.
Isabella implied, "Don't I still have you by my side?'
Jared let out a sinister laugh. "You must be dreaming. You only want to exploit me and use me as a shield to defend against the problems caused by others!'
'Haha!" Isabella mocked, "You're taking advantage of me yet still pretending to be innocent. It's Draxton who killed David and helped you solve a big problem. Isn't this what you've always hoped for?" Jared said with a ferocious expression, "But you let him die too easily!"
Jared looked very unhappy and dissatisfied.
Isabella blurted, 'Tsk! Over there, the corpse is there. If you're unhappy, whip the corpse then!"
Jared looked at her angrily.
Isabella did not think much of it and expressed, Don't stare at me like that. Do you still want me to treat your illness?"
Jared replied, 'Don't you say I won't live for long?"
"Hmm, do you believe it yourself?" Isabella questioned.
Jared asked, "Why are you helping me?'
Jared knew Isabella had told David he would not live long to protect him.
Jared looked at Isabella. His sad eyes were glimmering.
Isabella glanced at him and commented, 'Of course, it's planned for now. For example, you have to deal with those elders of your Chancely family!"
"You...' Jared was boiling in rage. His face became dark, but his eyes brightened up because of his anger.
Draxton reminded, Bella, we have to take Jerico away."
Isabella immediately understood Draxton's intention, "Michael is here too?"
"Yes, he's currently in the Big Dipper Branch," Draxton declared.
"What? Are you going to take Jerico away? No!' Jared argued. He was very agitated.
Draxton looked at Jared unhappily. Isabella smiled at Draxton, "Don't be so agitated. You hate Jerico, but some people hate him too. He won't get anything good. When the time comes, well send Jerico's video for you to appreciate!"
Jared slammed the armrest of his wheelchair twice in anger and said angrily, 'It's bad enough that you killed David, but you even want to take
Jerico away. Don't go too far!"
Jared had yet to vent the anger in his heart. Ultimately, neither of the two people he hated the most could be in his hands. How could he stand it? Isabella looked at Draxton and conveyed, "If this person can't vent his anger, he'll probably go crazy."
Draxton smiled, "Then give him another two days."
"Alright, I'll get some medicine to treat him," Isabella responded.
Only then did Jared calm down a little.
Isabella asked Jared to prepare the fine needle and herbs while she and Draxton went to take a break and have a rest.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"Bella, you have dark circles under your eyes. You have to sleep well." Draxton frowned and pulled the blanket away. His dark blue eyes stared at her quietly.
As Isabella took off her coat, she blinked her eyes and remarked, "But I can't sleep alone. If I can hug you, I may be able to fall asleep."
Happiness filled Draxton's eyes. His expression was serious, but he could not hide the pridefulness in his tone. "Alright, I'll sleep with you together." Isabella immediately smiled cheerily.
The two of them lay on the bed. Isabella rested her head on his arm and buried her face in his chest. She sighed softly, "Finally, I can sleep well! tonight." Draxton suddenly felt a little heartbroken upon hearing that. He reached out and patted her back gently. "Go to sleep now.'
"Regarding what has happened to the Chancely family, the Chancely family's elders must have received the news," Isabella mumbled.
"If Jared is so useless, what's the point of saving him?"
Draxton was displeased. Don't worry about these things. If Jared is useless, don't you still have me around? Hurry up and go to sleep now.'
"You still haven't told me what has happened in the past few days," Isabella complained.
"Well talk about it when you wake up. I won't tell you about it if you don't sleep.' Draxton ordered.
Isabella smiled and closed her eyes while lying in Draxton's arms.
Reality proved that Jared was indeed a very influential person. Isabella and Draxton stayed with the Chancely family for two days, but everything in the Chancely family was calm, as if nothing had happened. After Isabella prescribed some medications, she could finally treat Jared's illness.
Jared's sinister aura intensified. Isabella took his pulse and found that although the viciousness in his body had increased, the blockage in his body had been cleared.
It meant that Jared's mood had improved.
Without saying anything, Isabella directly administered medicine and gave him acupuncture.
Isabella watched him as he ate the medicine. She asked teasingly, 'Aren't you worried HI tamper with the medicine?"
His expression did not change at all. "Are you so despicable?'
Isabella choked. That person was indeed not a good person. When she hit him, she was a little too heavy-handed.
Jared's face was wrenched in pain.
"You're the one who asked me. I never say anything bad about you. How can you treat me like this? If I die from the pain, your title as Miraculous Doctor will be ruined!'
Jared was so much in pain that beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead.
Isabella and Draxton sneered at the same time. Haha!"
"The two of you..." He was very angry. "You manipulate me to take down the Chancely family, and now you're using the opportunity to treat me, but you're torturing me instead. You're too much!" "You're still being stubborn? Bella, I think we can make him suffer even more," Draxton sneered.
Hiss!
Jared gasped in pain.
"What do you want? Just say it!" Jared asked angrily.
"We don't plan to do anything. Aren't we treating your illness now? Mr. Jared, don't tell me you can't even bear this little pain?"
Jared opened his mouth, but no words came out as he remained speechless.
Isabella did not speak again. Instead, she focused on the fine needle in her hand.
Her previous posture was quite relaxed and casual, but her expression shifted from concentrated to serious as the needle trajectory became more complicated.
It was the first time Draxton had seen her perform acupuncture on someone so seriously.
Jared could not even make a sound. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Isabella intensely.
After about two hours, Isabella's serious expression eased. She slowly pulled out the fine needle. Jared's painful expression suddenly relaxed when the last fine needle was pulled out.
But immediately after, his eyes widened. He opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of bad blood.
Then, he spat out blood for the second time.
He spat out a few mouthfuls of bad blood in a row. Ultimately, the blood he spat out turned into a normal dark red color. He let out a long sigh
of relief and collapsed into the wheelchair. However, his face revealed an unparalleled sense of comfort.
He felt like he was floating in the air, ignoring the dirty blood on his body.
"Am I poisoned?" Draxton asked in surprise.
Isabella replied, "It should be a congenital toxin, and it's extremely toxic. Look at his leg."
Draxton looked over and saw that Jerico's light-colored pants were already soaked in dirty blood. Every pore on his body was oozing bad blood.
"There's nothing wrong with his legs. He can't walk because the toxicity has accumulated and destroyed some of his body's functions. What I said before wasn't a lie. He won't be able to live longer if the toxicity can't be cleared. But now, as long as he recuperates well in the future, it won't be a problem for him to live to the age of seventy or eighty.'
Although Jared was weak, he could still hear Isabella. However, he did not have the strength to speak at all.
Isabella called two persons in to help him clean up.
It was the next day before Jared appeared in front of them again.
Jared was still sitting in a wheelchair. He had become even thinner, and his face was pale like snow. However, this pale complexity was different from his previous deathly white complexity. Jared's eyes were exceptionally luminous.
"Come here." Isabella sat on the sofa and beckoned to Jared with her fingers.
Jared's originally joyful expression instantly became dull.
"Am I a dog?"
"I didn't say that. You said it yourself." Isabella raised his eyebrows.
Jerico rolled his wheelchair over with an ugly expression. Isabella said, "Give me your hand.'
Jared obediently stretched out his hand. Isabella checked his pulse and then gave him a pill.
"HI write you a prescription later. Drink it for three months according to that prescription."
"I tried it before. I can stand up and walk. I'm just not very agile."
Isabella nodded. "You're already a normal person now. You can't walk fast because you're still like a baby. That's why you have to learn how to walk."
Jared's smile froze again.
He did not think putting words like "baby" and "learn how to walk" on him was nice.
He looked ashamed.
Isabella gave him a sideways glance. "Now that I've cured you, you should feel overjoyed and grateful?"
"I...* Jared gritted his teeth and wanted to curse.
"There's no need to be grateful. To repay Bella's life-saving kindness, you can do whatever Bella asks you to do in the future."
Draxton interrupted.
Jared gritted his teeth. 'You two are treating me like a slave!"
"You said it yourself. We didn't." Isabella spread his hands and smiled.
Jared was so angry that he turned around and left. He planned to vent his anger on Jerico.
