From Billionaire Chapter 36ย +25 BONUSย Andrew ignored Francesca and immediately began treating Eunice. The silver needles danced between his fingers as he inserted them into specific pressure points on Euniceโs body, all while stopping the spread of the toxin with a few taps.ย His mastery left Francesca dumbfounded. She stuttered, โYโYou actually know the point technique?โย โIsnโt it basic knowย pressure-ย Anyone with hands can do it,โ Andrew replied casually, leaving Francesca nearly choking with anger.ย Her grandfather, Cedric, had trained his whole life and, at 80 years old, had barely mastered the basics of pressure point techniques. Yet here was Andrew, wielding it as if it were childโs play. Francesca thought Cedric would probably faint if he saw this.ย One by one, the needles drew out the poison, their silver surfaces turning black.ย Lauren beamed with pride and exclaimed, โDr. Lloyd, youโre amazing!โ Then, she turned to Francesca with a smirk. โWell, Fran, are you convinced now?โย Francesca stubbornly argued, โSilver needles have been used to neutralize toxins since ancient times. Any doctor knows that. Nothing impressive here.โย Michael quickly backed her up and said, โExactly! Fran is the chief director of Jayrodale General Hospital and deals with complex cases daily. This pretty boyโs ability to treat poison just shows how well she trains her staff.โย Lauren scoffed. โThink what you want, but Dr. Lloyd is the best in my eyes.ย After collecting his needles, Andrew stood up. โItโs done. All the poison has been expelled.โย After thanking Andrew, Lauren asked Eunice. โHow are you feeling?โย Though still pale, Eunice could move normally. She replied, โIโm fine now, Miss.โย Lauren continued her questioning. โDo you remember anything? How did you end up poisoned?โย Eunice explained sheepishly, โI was fine all morning. I went to your office to get some files when you went to your meeting. I saw your coffee and thought you wouldnโt have time to drink it, so I had it myself, planning to make you a fresh cup. Thatโs when I collapsed.โย Michael exploded in anger. โIโll get the security team to investigate this matter immediately. I canโt believe someone dared to do such a thing right under my nose! Iโll destroy them!โย โItโs obvious they were targeting Lauren, but Eunice accidentally intercepted it,โ Francesca added coldly. โLauren, investigate your coffeeโs source, and weโll find the culprit.โย Lauren remained thoughtful and turned to Andrew. โDr. Lloyd, what do you think?โย Chapter 36ย โIf I were Ms. Rhodes, I wouldnโt launch a huge livestigation. In fact, Iโd keep Euniceโs poisoning completely secret,โ Andrew replied calmly.ย Everyone stared at him in disbelief. โWhat an idiot! I get itโyou might know medicine, but you clearly know nothing about anything else!โ Michael sneered.ย Francesca frowned. โIf you donโt understand the gravity of the situatiort, you donโt have to comment on it. The evidence is clearโsomeone poisoned Laurenโs coffee to target her. Canโt you see that?โย Andrew asked sharply, โAnd you think investigating the coffee will lead to the culprit? Do you know how many cups of coffee enter Rhodes Corporation daily? If someone tampered with it during delivery, how would you trace that? Youโre proving my point about you being pretty much useless besidesย your certainโฆ attributes.โย โYou bastardโฆโ Francesca was seething with rage and embarrassment. She could not believe Andrew actually looked down on her.ย Andrew gazed at Michael blankly and added, โAnd youโre just as clueless. By announcing Euniceโs recovery, arenโt you afraid of alerting whoeverโs behind this?โย +25 BONUSย
