Chapter 3239 If You Want To Leave, It's Simple After watching the footage, Dr. Schwartz finally realized what Karen meant by different.
The dry needling technique in the video was completely different from what he had learned. The air conditioning in the room was just right, but Dr. Schwartz was sweating bullets.
He had a contract with Karen.
The contract required him to learn the dry needling technique in the footage and use it to treat Pierre. However, he had no idea how to perform this strange new method.
His assistant glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Professor, we've never seen this dry needling technique before. What should we do?" Dr. Schwartz wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Is this snew type of dry needling technique?" *It shouldn't be. I've read tons of literature, and none of it mentions a new dry needling technique coming out of A City. What do we do now?" Even though Dr. Schwartz's assistant's medical skills were not as advanced as his, she knew that this technique would be hard for them to learn.
Even if they repeatedly studied the footage, they would not be able to figure out the correct needle positions. "What happens if we break the contract?" asked Dr. Schwartz.
"We'd have to pay a penalty. We can't afford that, professor," the assistant reminded him.
By now, Dr. Schwartz was not only sweating from his forehead but also from his back.
They spoke in hushed tones, making Karen and Pierre think they were just studying the footage. However, Luca heard their conversation clearly.
She had no intention of helping the two doctors. She sat there, relaxed.
Ten minutes later, Pierre asked, "How's the research going?" Dr. Schwartz bit the bullet and replied, "This technique is quite unusual. We need more tto study it." "You don't have much tleft." Luca was not trying to make things difficult for the doctors. She was just speaking the truth.
At this point, lectures had already started at the university.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, the university would know she had not shown up and would try to contact her.
If they were unable to reach her, they would contact Evan, who would then reach out to Luke.
Gale and his team were probably looking for her now.
Karen shot her a look, "What do you mean?" "It's been two hours. The university already knows I'm missing," replied Luca.
"You're just missing one class. Do you think they'll care?" Karen scoffed, knowing that Luke would cbut doubting he would arrive quickly.
"Yeah, they won't." Luca smiled and said no more.
Dr. Schwartz did not fully understand what was happening, but when he saw Karen wielding a knife at a foreign woman, he could guess a bit.
*Professor, maybe we should just cclean..." suggested Dr. Schwartz assistant. She reckoned that the unbound young woman was the one who performed the dry needling on Pierre.
Even though they did not know if the technique would work, their client required them to learn it, so they had no choice but to ask for help.
Dr. Schwartz, trying to save his dignity, pretended not to hear his assistant's suggestion.
When the assistant noticed that, she said straightforwardly, "Professor, if we let this drag on, we're really going to break the contract." Although Pierre could not hear what they were saying, he could tell they were stalling without making any progress. Hence, he urged, "Have you learned it yet?" Dr. Schwartz had no choice but to stand up reluctantly. He gave Pierre an apologetic look, then turned to Karen with the sexpression.
*Madam Mallory, this dry needling technique is too new and strange. I don't even think those acupoints exist. I've never learned something like this before," admitted Dr. Schwartz.
Pierre rolled his eyes, turned to look at Karen, and said, "Useless." He was insulting Dr. Schwartz but also blaming Karen.
After all, she was the one who found this doctor.
Even with high-definition footage from multiple angles, the doctor could not learn the technique? Karen frowned and glared at him. "Didn't you tellyou were a seasoned naturopathic physician? That there were no dry needling techniques you didn't know, no acupoints you couldn't locate?" "But the positions of these acupoints are really unique. None of the medical texts have any records of them," Dr. Schwartz replied helplessly. He truly did not know this technique.
Luca let out a chuckle.
Everyone turned to look at her.
She could feel their gazes, but she did not move or say a word.
*Luca," Karen called out.
Luca lifted her eyelids and shook her head.
"What do you mean by this?" Karen felt frustrated. This did not seem like a kidnapping. It was as if she had invited a big shot to cover.
Nevertheless, neither she nor Pierre was the type to beg Luca for help.
"I told you before, my dry needling technique won't significantly help Pierre's recovery, and this technique isn't something just anyone can learn," Luca said nonchalantly.
She stuck to the story she had told Karen before, even if Karen did not believe it.
*If he can't do it, you teach him until he can!" Pierre said harshly.
Luca looked at Dr. Schwartz, who was sweating bullets, and his assistant, who was equally terrified. She thought to herself that this was what they got for working with Pierre.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf they had not gotten involved with Pierre, they would not be in this mess.
Luca heard a slight commotion downstairs and smiled. "Someone's here." "What?" Karen's expression changed.
Luca pointed downward. "There's a fight downstairs." "That's nonsense. I don't hear anything!" Karen snapped, thinking that Luca was trying to scare her.
Luca pointed at her ears. "I have good hearing. If you hadn't threatenedwith Vivian, I wouldn't have© performed the dry needling. Now that it's done and you've recorded it, you can let her go, right?" "No!" Karen refused to release Vivian, thinking that having her would still give them leverage, regardless of who showed up downstairs.
Luca narrowed her eyes. Then, the bedroom door was kicked open.
Gale walked in and glanced around the bedroom. There were six people in this 30-square-meter bedroom, which surprised him.
"Wow, there are so many people here. Are you guys having a meeting?" Gale looked at Luca and noticed she was not tied up, which made him relax a bit.
However, he noticed Vivian was bound and had a knife pointed at her.
He frowned.
It seemed like every day just brought more trouble.
*Sorry about this, Mr. Gale." Vivian thought the emotion in Gale's eyes was because she had gotten m ve! kidnapped. Gale shook his head. "Ms.
Vivian, this isn't your fault. My frustration is with them." He casually pointed at Karen and then at Pierre.
Vivian was amused by his gesture. Even though the knife was pointed at her, she no longer felt nervous.
Gale looked at the two and said, "Pierre can't fight with his crippled leg, and you, a middle-aged wamah, aren't much of a threat. So, either let her go peacefully and I'll report back to my boss, or you deal with the consequences yourselves." *She's in my hands now, so I make the rules!" Karen was not intimidated by his threat and instead looked at Luca challengingly. "If you want to leave, it's simple. Just teach Dr. Schwartz the technique." X
