The Real Daughter Came Back to Chill and Kill Novel

Chapter 72 As Edmund recounted the story , Scarlett felt a sharp pain in her chest . She had always believed her previous life was the worst of the worst , that no one in the world could have suffered more than she had . But compared to Xavier's experiences , her own struggles seemed trivial . It was no wonder that Xavier had such severe mental health issues . The activity in his brain was constantly out of balance .

She couldn't imagine how anyone could endure what he had without their mind breaking . Edmund's question snapped her out of her thoughts , and forgotten images flashed before her eyes . " Could it be … him ? " A look of surprise , quickly followed by realization , flashed across Scarlett's face . It was no wonder he had seemed so familiar when she first saw him . She had once , unknowingly , saved him ! It was the time she had just received a box of silver needles from Alton .

She was eager to practice , but no one was willing to be her test subject . She had already poked and prodded everyone she knew . Even her mother , who usually approached her with a silly grin , would hide at the sight of her during that time . She was desperate to find someone to test her skills on . That day , with a small basket strapped to her back and the excuse of searching for herbs , she had ventured farther than ever before .

After crossing two mountains , she figured that even if she accidentally hurt someone , no one would be able to trace it back to her . But as she walked , a huge object suddenly tumbled down from above , nearly crushing her . With a loud splash , it plunged into the lake , drenching her from head to toe . Clutching her wildly beating heart , she muttered a curse under her breath . Still puzzled , she hesitated , then retraced her steps to see what exactly had fallen .

She dove into the lake and swam toward the object , only to discover a person trapped inside . Alton had always told her , " Saving a life is the greatest gift you can give , " so without hesitation , she decided to lend a hand . However , that car - like contraption was incredibly sturdy . No matter how hard she tried , she couldn't get it open . When she saw that the water had completely submerged the man's head , she realized that there must have been a leak somewhere .

After some effort , she found it right by the glass corner near him . Using the tip of her sickle , she pried it open and pulled the young and unconscious man out . He was heavy , but thankfully , she was strong enough to drag him ashore . The young man had swallowed a lot of water and wasn't breathing , but his pulse was still there . Without hesitation , she began administering CPR , pressing on his chest and abdomen . Fortunately , she managed to revive him .

However , his injuries were severe . It looked like nearly every bone in his body was broken , and many of his wounds were still bleeding heavily . Scarlett was far from being afraid ; she gripped her silver needles and was eager to put them to use . 2 Alton had recently taught her acupuncture techniques for stopping bleeding , but she hadn't had the chance to try them until now . She was even a little excited .

Once she managed to stop the bleeding , she realized his severe external injuries were beyond her skill to treat . She tried to contact his family , but no matter what she did , she couldn't unlock his phone . Left with no other choice , she decided to go find help . She hadn't gone far when a series of booming sounds erupted behind her , followed by a sudden gust of wind . Startled , she turned around only to see a helicopter landing nearby .

Several people in white coats quickly emerged and carried the young man away . She ran back to the village , eager to tell Alton what had happened . But by the time she arrived, Alton was already gone . It wasn't until six months later that he returned to visit her and continue her medical training . By then , she had nearly forgotten the whole incident . Little did she know , the young man she had saved was none other than Xavier himself ! Spin to Claim Your Surprise Reward !
