Chapter 578: His Fingers Moved

Lucas was overjoyed, and he hurriedly exclaimed, “Alright, come here now then, Maddy!”

Maddy soon arrived in William’s ward.

But she didn’t come alone. Instead, she came in together with the old director and several doctors of the hospital, including the attending doctor who had performed the life-saving surgery on William.

All of them had heard of Maddy’s great reputation and came over to observe the treatment to learn something from her.

After all, it was usually extremely difficult to meet internationally renowned medical experts such as Maddy, let alone observe her treatment process on the spot in person.

The director had even swallowed his pride and begged Maddy for a long time before she finally compromised and gave in.

Maddy skilfully opened the small box she was carrying to reveal several sets of sharp and thin gold needles, as well as some other Chinese medical instruments.

Next, Maddy began to rapidly insert needles in many acupuncture points on William’s head while also supplementing it with some Chinese medicine massage techniques to many acupuncture points on William’s body.

The doctors watched carefully, and many took out small notebooks to record what they were seeing and what they didn’t understand.

Since acupuncture was a process that required extremely detailed technical work, she not only needed to determine a good treatment plan in advance, but she also had to remain entirely focused during the entire process because a slight mistake might lead to extremely serious consequences.

So although there were many people here, everyone was holding their breaths and concentrating, not even daring to cough, for fear of disturbing Maddy’s treatment.

Karen was also secretly glancing at everything from the corner.

She really wanted to suddenly make some noise at this time and deliberately disrupt Maddy’s acupuncture treatment, preferably so that she could stab William to death in a moment of shock. That would be the best thing!

But Lucas was also in the ward and had even cast a warning glance at her. No matter how gutsy she was, she didn’t dare to do anything with Lucas around.

So she could only pray in her heart that this young woman didn’t know anything about medicine and was just messing around.

After all, in the eyes of most people, things like traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture were completely like superstitious metaphysics.

After half an hour, Maddy carefully removed the last gold needle from William’s head and put the entire set of gold needles back into the small box. She then heaved a sigh of relief and ended the treatment for the day.

The doctors, who had been crowding around for a long time, finally spoke up.

“Dr. Stone, you are truly worthy of being an internationally renowned medical expert. Those gold needles seemed to have come alive in your hands. Your skills are divine!”

“Yes, it’s amazing! I counted, and you inserted needles no less than two hundred times, but the timing and order of each acupuncture point were completely different. It’s really breathtaking! Compared to you, our humble medical skills are not worth mentioning at all!”

“Although I’m almost sixty and much older than you, and I’ve immersed myself in traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture for more than thirty years, I feel that I’ve lived in vain previously!”

“Haha, Dr. Stone, you may be young, but your medical skills are really quite superb and admirable! You said before that you could make this patient wake up within five days, and in my humble opinion, you can definitely do it, despite it being a near-impossible miracle!”

…

For a while, all the doctors were praising Maddy’s medical skills.

Karen, standing at the side, turned pale and clenched her fingers with indignation.

She had always thought that although Lucas had praised Maddy and introduced her as a medical expert invited from abroad, she was too young to have any decent medical skills at all. She had even thought that Lucas was just boasting.

But after personally hearing so many doctors praising Maddy, Karen instantly felt flustered.

If Maddy’s medical skills were really that superb, it meant that William likely would really wake up within a few days. When the time came, what should she do?

“Huh!?! This… this is simply incredible!” William’s attending doctor suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

“What happened?” hurriedly asked the person next to him, startled by his sudden shout.

The attending doctor excitedly pointed at William’s hand. “His hand! His fingers! Just now, I saw his fingers move twice! I swear I definitely saw it!”

As soon as he said this, another doctor immediately chimed in, “I… I saw it too! I just thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. That’s why I didn’t dare to say anything, but I didn’t expect you to see it too, Dr. Will! This is really incredible!”

“Oh my god, this is really amazing! It’s only the first acupuncture treatment, and the patient has already shown such a good reaction. It’s really miraculous! It seems that William Carter will wake up within the next few days, as Dr. Stone said!”

“As expected of Dr. Stone, her medical skills are really outstanding! It makes us much older doctors ashamed, haha!”

Lucas and Cheyenne were also immediately surprised to hear what they said and quickly walked over to check on William’s condition.

But it seemed that William just moved his fingers twice under the stimulation because they couldn’t see any other movement now.

Cheyenne was slightly disappointed about not being able to see William’s reaction with her own eyes, but she quickly adjusted her emotions and grinned happily. “Great, it seems Dad will wake up soon! Maddy, thank you so much!”

She grabbed Maddy’s hand excitedly.

Lucas looked at Maddy with a smile and said from the bottom of his heart, “Maddy, thank you for your hard work!”

Maddy replied with a warm smile, “It’s nothing. You guys are being too polite!”

Although she was smiling, there was a clear trace of fatigue on her face. Clearly, the process of concentrating on acupuncture just now had brought her a considerable burden.

In particular, Maddy hadn’t actually rested much since she got on the plane last night until now. And after taking William’s pulse, she had been researching and trying to formulate an acupuncture treatment plan. She had to be exhausted.

“Maddy, go back and rest well! You’ve been busy all day, and you must be exhausted,” Lucas said with concern.

Maddy rubbed her brow, and instead of trying to put on a strong front, she nodded. “Well, then I’ll go back to the hotel. I’ll come back tomorrow morning to check on his condition.”

“Okay.”

Lucas then said to Jordan at the side, “Send Maddy back to the hotel! Also, you don’t need to come here for the time being for the next two days. Just take full responsibility for Maddy’s personal safety!”

He raised his eyebrows, seemingly trying to say, ‘That’s as much as I can help you with’.

Jordan was overjoyed, and he immediately agreed excitedly, “Alright! Just leave it to me!”

He escorted Maddy out of the hospital, and even his footsteps were much lighter.

Those familiar with Jordan, such as Lucas and Cheyenne, could tell at a glance that he was brimming with happiness at this moment.

“Huh? Jordan… and Maddy, could it be…?” Cheyenne asked softly, immediately feeling gossipy.

Lucas smiled. “It depends on whether or not Jordan can impress the beauty.”

The two were in a great mood while speaking.

But Karen was staring at William with a sinister look in her eyes.
