"Grandfather." Matthew's brows instantly drew together, his expression darkening. His grandfather was a good man, but with age, he was becoming increasingly impulsive. Robert waved a hand, signaling for Matthew to be silent. He then turned back to Arabella. "It's settled then. Now, could you share your treatment plan?" Having received Robert's confirmation, Arabella finally felt at ease and began to explain. "Sir, there is a restriction in the blood flow to your brain.
If it isn't addressed promptly, you will likely require hospitalization within a few days. My immediate plan is to focus on improving that circulation." Hearing this, Miles immediately interjected, "If we're talking about improving circulation, I believe modern medicine is the way to go. It acts faster." "Mr. Stewart, Mr. Matthew Stewart," Miles continued, addressing them both, his tone toward Arabella slightly mollified but still competitive, "I propose we try an intravenous treatment first. If it proves ineffective, then the young doctor can step in.
If it works well, further intervention may be unnecessary." He was determined not to be outdone by this girl. If he could resolve Robert's stubborn condition, it would elevate his standing and allow him to claim full credit for the day-and give him grounds to put this upstart in her place. Matthew could see Miles was eager to treat Robert. After all, Miles was his employee and Robert's long-time physician. Compared to this unfamiliar young woman, Miles undoubtedly knew Robert's medical history best. After a moment's consideration, Matthew looked at Robert.
"Grandfather, Miles has been your physician for years and understands your condition thoroughly. Perhaps we should let him try his approach first?" Robert actually preferred to proceed with Arabella, but Matthew's suggestion gave him pause, and a look of hesitation crossed his face. Arabella noticed Robert's dilemma, and she also saw Miles' eagerness to prove himself, backed by Matthew's recommendation. Since they still lacked full trust in her, she decided to let him have his attempt. She would then step in decisively, leaving him no grounds for argument. That would shut him up for good.

With this in mind, Arabella spoke plainly, "Sir, there's no need for a dilemma. Since Miles is so eager to alleviate the gentleman's discomfort, let him proceed. If his method proves insufficient, I will intervene." Seeing Arabella being so accommodating, the hesitation on Robert's face gradually faded. He decided to give Miles this final chance. If the treatment failed again, he would not only replace 1/3 14:31 Thu, Jan 29 M... him but also instruct Matthew to withdraw all investments from his affiliated hospital.
Robert looked at Miles and gave the order. "Go and prepare." "Yes, sir," Miles replied. Having received permission, he hurried off to prepare the medication. Soon, Miles had an IV drip set up for Robert. As the fluid slowly entered Robert's bloodstream, Miles watched him with expectant eyes, fervently hoping this infusion would relieve the symptoms. Everyone waited quietly. Suddenly, Robert spoke up, his voice weak, "I'm feeling quite dizzy and nauseated... and my right side feels strangely weak..." Hearing this, Matthew immediately stepped closer. "Grandfather, what's wrong?
Are you feeling worse?" Robert gave a feeble nod. Matthew turned sharply to Miles. "Examine him. Now." Miles hurriedly began checking Robert's vitals. During his examination, Robert's condition abruptly deteriorated. His body began to twitch uncontrollably. Seeing this, Arabella stepped forward without hesitation and removed the IV line from Robert's hand. She had initially assumed Miles, as a licensed physician, wouldn't resort to such aggressive medication. She hadn't expected his desire for quick results to lead him to use such a potent formulation.
It seemed the time for giving Miles chances was over. Seeing Arabella disconnect the IV, Matthew demanded, "What are you doing?" "The patient is having a reaction. If you want him to live, don't interfere with me stabilizing him!" Without even glancing at Matthew, Arabella retrieved a case of slender, specialized needles and swiftly inserted them at precise points on Robert's body. Understanding the gravity, Matthew fell silent, though he remained close by, watching Robert's reaction with a deep frown.
If his grandfather's condition worsened further, he would have him rushed to the hospital immediately. In his mind, this young woman was still an even greater unknown than Miles. Miles, now nervous, suggested, "We need to get him to a hospital immediately. The equipment here is limited; I fear something could go critically wrong..." "He's not going anywhere," Arabella stated coldly, her voice leaving no room for argument. A 2/3 14:31 Thu, Jan 29 M... serious, commanding aura seemed to emanate from her. "The patient is experiencing convulsions.
Moving him now is inadvisable. We wait until he is stabilized." Miles was momentarily silenced. Matthew shot Miles a chilling look that made him shudder, and he dared not utter another word. As Arabella continued her ministrations, the violent twitching in Robert's body gradually began to subside. 合 90 3/3 14:31 Thu, Jan 29 M ... 887 Mark Twain
