Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Coughing Blood (Part 1)
"Elias, don’t stop me, let me see Baby!" Claire North sobbed, tears streaming, choking out, "I know sister has a talent for pharmaceuticals, but she’s still new in the field! As for acupuncture, it’s vast, you can’t learn it just by reading a few books..."
Suddenly, Claire’s eyes widened, "Sister... Sister! How can you needle the baby’s Tan Zhong point! That’s a lethal point! If not done properly, it could kill someone!"
Vincent Hawthorne, hearing Claire’s words, felt a surge of panic and burst into a rage, "Get out of the way! Elias, aren’t you going to get out of my way! Do you really want to let this woman kill your only son?"
Mrs. Hawthorne also tried to advise, "Elias, your father has already called Chester, he’ll be here by dawn at the latest. You should take Raina and go back for now."
Elias Hawthorne stood unmoved like a mountain, his expression cold and stern, "I trust Raina."
Vincent, infuriated, angrily shouted, "You’re crazy! I think you’ve been bewitched by this woman, to the point where you can even give up your own son!"
Seeing Elias remain motionless, Vincent could no longer hold back, "Move! Get out of my way!"
The ward was a chaotic mess, but no matter how much they argued, Elias held them all back firmly, not allowing them to take a step forward.
Raina, oblivious to the commotion around, carefully checked on Baby Hawthorne, occasionally manipulating the silver needle.
Once the buzzing sound of the needle stopped, Raina gently flicked her hand, and the silver needles all fell into her hand.
With a gasp—
A mouthful of blood spurted from Baby Hawthorne’s mouth, and the dark pallor on his face faded a bit, making his little face look ghostly pale.
"Baby!"
"Baby!!"
Vincent was so frightened his heart almost stopped.
Mrs. Hawthorne and Claire were also stunned, they exchanged glances, seeing disbelief in each other’s eyes.
"Where’s the doctor! Quickly, call Doctor Shaw!"
"Call again to urge Chester!"
The people in the ward were in turmoil, each one stumbling towards the bed in panic.
"Move! Don’t gather around the bed!" Raina demanded sharply, showing no change in expression despite the baby’s vomiting blood. Her hands were steady, and her eyes incredibly focused.
"Baby... my baby... why... why is he vomiting blood again? Where’s the doctor? Why isn’t the doctor here yet!?"
Old Mrs. Hawthorne was incoherent, looking at the child she cherished dearly, her face turning pale with worry, almost fainting from panic.
"Grandma, Baby will be fine." Elias held the old lady, his voice hoarse yet exceptionally firm, "You have to trust Raina."
Old Mrs. Hawthorne was stunned and hadn’t spoken when Claire could no longer hold back and jumped out: "Elias, I know you like sister! But at this point, you can’t favor her anymore! Baby vomited so much blood, his face looks so bad, this could be life-threatening!
Besides, Doctor Shaw already said, aside from finding the person who poisoned him, the greatest hope is Ghost Doctor Nowhere. Until we find Nowhere, we shouldn’t randomly use any medicine to avoid causing other reactions! But sister wouldn’t listen just to prove herself! Now look, Baby’s condition is even more critical! Sister, what are you really up to by doing this!"
Mrs. Hawthorne steadied the trembling Claire, "Claire, calm down, now Baby can only rely on you as his biological mother. Baby is so young, we can’t just watch him like this..."
Raina did not heed those people; she seized the moment as Elias firmly blocked them, wielding the silver needles to quickly target acupuncture points around Baby Hawthorne.
