The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 734: Big Shot, Were Your Inhuman Actions Insufficient?

"Master Cadmus!" Brian Bonette had never experienced such a long four hours, and he hurried over to the recently awakened Master Cadmus, helped him up, and asked in a serious low voice, "How do you feel, sir?"

"Hmm?"

The old man who had just woken up had clouded eyes, lacking the previous sparkle, and appeared somewhat confused.

However, after a moment, he blinked, rubbed his temples, and it was obvious that his spirits were picking up.

Brian saw him stretch with an irrepressible joy and said to the girl, "Miss, what did you use? I haven’t slept well in ages, and this sleep was truly refreshing! I haven’t had such a comfortable sleep in the recent decade; it felt like a dream."

Mario Cagwin: "..." So Master Cadmus was actually asleep during his unresponsive state just now?

Nathalie Quinlan, with her hands in her pockets, quite boldly said, "Nothing special, just punctured the ’Shenmen,’ ’Neiguan,’ and ’Fengchi’ acupoints once. These three points have a calming effect. How do you feel now?"

Her voice was quite indifferent and a little bit hoarse but pleasant to hear.

"Do you still feel a dull headache?"

Master Cadmus reflexively assessed his condition and was then surprised to find that the back of his head, which was usually in a slight pain, no longer felt heavy. He felt refreshed and more relaxed than ever before.

When he looked at Nathalie again, his eyes couldn’t hide his admiration, "It doesn’t hurt at all anymore. You’re quite something, young lady. It’s surprising that someone of your young age has such good medical skills."

Brian hadn’t expected that just one session of acupuncture from Nathalie could have such a positive effect on Master Cadmus, and after a moment of shock, felt a bit embarrassed thinking about how he had been close to losing his patience earlier.

Fortunately, he hadn’t acted like Phoebe Hoffman, or the face of The Ninth Institute would have been thoroughly lost this time!

Nathalie didn’t seem to care, and as she stood up, she instructed in an even tone, "Starting today, I’ll perform acupuncture on you every other day for the next two days, and after three times, I will prescribe you a batch of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which you will continue to take for half a year to see the effect."

Mario Cagwin asked in surprise, "Ms. Quinlan, why would it take half a year to see the effect? Hasn’t Master Cadmus already recovered?"

He had just heard Master Cadmus say his head wasn’t hurting and he had slept comfortably.

Brian also had this question in mind. With his hands behind his back and his deep black eyes on the girl, he also asked, "Yes, Nathalie, hasn’t Master Cadmus already improved? Why would it take half a year to see the effect?"

Nathalie looked at them with a somewhat perplexed expression, her lifted eyes wild and slightly mischievous, and she pulled at the brim of her hat and said aggressively, "Did you really think that I cured Master Cadmus’s migraine with just one session of acupuncture?"

Brian smiled, his refined demeanor seeming a bit artificial, "Isn’t that the case?"

Nathalie averted her gaze and said flatly, "I don’t have that ability, nor have I heard of anyone who can cure someone’s ailment of several decades in one go unless that person is a god, not human."

Alfred Garland almost wanted to speak up.

Have you not done inhuman things before, boss?

Luckily, he held back and said nothing.

Nathalie continued nonchalantly, "The reason Master Cadmus feels his symptoms have lessened is because he hasn’t slept properly in a long while, and his brain hasn’t rested. After finally getting some sleep and letting his brain rest, it’s easy to fall under the illusion that the disease has healed, but in reality, the migraine issue persists. If he continues working and his brain becomes exhausted again, the previous symptoms will still surface..."
