Chapter 1025: 285: Getting What One Deserves_6
"Who?"
In that instant, Terrence Lentz's voice turned incandescently cold.
"It was Hikari, instigated by Nako Garcia."
At these words, Terrence squinted, "I've heard that an accident befell these two, with one losing his hands and the other his legs, is that correct?"
Upon hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone was taken aback and then instantaneously responded, "Yes."
Tonight, someone was destined to lose their hands and legs.
"As for the police station, make arrangements there too." Lentz's thin lips opened for the second time.
Those who bullied Viola Thompson.
He wouldn't let even one of them off!
Not a single one!
Thoughts like this made his usually stoic eyes filled with a dangerous glint.
"Alright, sir."
After hanging up the phone, Lentz returned to the sickroom.
At this time, there was not a trace of his cold demeanor left. All that could be seen was the caution that he took when facing his future uncle.
"Mr. Thompson, are you hungry?"
"Not hungry."
Brandon Thompson's expression remained neutral.
Smug kid!
Did he genuinely think that these antics would please him?
And so, the two men sat for the entire night on the sofa of the hospital room in silence.
They would drink green tea whenever they felt sleepy.
Early the next morning.
A shaft of sunlight streamed in from the window outside.
Lentz proactively offered to go and buy breakfast, "Mr. Thompson, I'm going to buy breakfast. Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
"No special diet."
"All right."
Lentz nodded his head and went outside to buy breakfast.
It was 6 o'clock in the morning.
There were already many people outside.
Soon, Lentz walked into the hospital room with breakfast in hand.
The suite where Viola Thompson was staying was a VIP suite, with a living room and a dining room.
At this time, Brandon Thompson had just finished washing up and was walking out of the bathroom.
"Mr. Thompson, breakfast is ready."
"Just leave it there."
As Brandon Thompson went over to eat breakfast, Lentz stayed inside to accompany Viola.
Viola Thompson was lying in bed, her lips tightly pressed together.
Lentz's eyes were full of heartache. If he could, he would willingly take on all the pain that Viola was enduring.
Just then, Viola's eyelashes fluttered.
"Viola!"
Lentz immediately grasped Viola's hand.
The next second, Viola opened her eyes.
She appeared slightly dazed at first, but then she looked at Lentz, "Brother Lentz."
"I'm here, I'm here!" Lentz tightly held Viola's hand, answering her question with slightly red-rimmed eyes, "Do you feel any better now?"
"Mmmm, much better," Viola's voice still sounding somewhat weak, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
At this moment, Brandon Thompson walked in, "Viola!"
"Big brother." Viola looked at Brandon Thompson.
Brandon's hand fell onto their hands, and Lentz immediately let go of Viola's hand, startled.
"Viola, do you feel discomfort anywhere?" Brandon Thompson asked as he walked in.
"No more." Viola Thompson shook her head slightly.
At that moment, Mary Perryne and Sawyer Thompson also walked in from outside.
Seeing Viola awake, Mary Perryne was extremely excited, "Viola!"
"Mom!"
Mother and daughter clung tightly to each other.
The scene was emotionally charged.
After a moment, Viola let go of Mary Perryne and lifted her head to greet Sawyer Thompson, "Dad."
"Where's grandma?" Viola suddenly asked.
At a time like this, Mrs. Thompson wouldn't be absent.
Could it be...
Mary Perryne said, "Your grandma is at the pet hospital taking care of Bread and Mantou."
"What happened to Bread and Mantou?" Viola asked.
Mary Perryne, her eyes reddening, said, "Those two little guys are too human-like. Since you lost consciousness due to poisoning, they stopped eating and drinking. In the end, Bread passed out... Your grandma feared that if they had another accident, she wouldn't be able to explain it to you once you woke up. So she went to the pet hospital to stay with them."
"Really?" Viola asked.
"Yeah, why would I lie to you?" Mary Perryne said casually, "She just went to the pet hospital."
But Viola felt something was off, just as Fiona Knight, Diana Hershey, and Flora Tiarks arrived.
Flora Tiarks laughed, "Viola, I brought your favorite milk tea!"
They had asked Nathaniel Besian, and he said it was okay for Viola to drink milk tea in her current condition.
"Thank you!"
Flora Tiarks stuck her tongue out, "What are you thanking me for! Aren't we best friends? This is a new flavor from O'Lei, a Christmas limited edition. Give it a try and see how it tastes."
Viola pulled back the quilt, "I'm going to rinse my mouth first."
She was slightly obsessive with cleanliness. She couldn't eat anything unless she rinsed her mouth first.
Seeing her trying to get up, Diana Hershey immediately helped her, "Viola, take it slow."
Viola smiled helplessly, "I'm not that fragile."
But the moment her foot touched the ground, she felt her legs were somewhat weak.
It seemed.
She had underestimated the toxicity in her body.
Viola narrowed her eyes, remaining silent.
Diana Hershey continued, "The Divine Doctor said the toxins in your body need to be cleared out using the golden needle acupuncture. Viola, how confident are you in doing this?"
"Hmm, roughly about 70%."
Finishing her sentence, Viola noticed something was off, she asked, "Diana, the Divine Doctor you're referring to, is that Nathaniel?"
"Mmm."
Diana Hershey nodded her head, "But Viola, isn't it a bit disrespectful to refer to the Divine Doctor in that way?"
"It's fine." Viola smiled faintly, "Where is he now?"
"He should be arriving soon." Diana Hershey answered.
Viola went to the bathroom to rinse her mouth.
After breakfast, Nathaniel finally arrived.
"Divine Doctor, you're here." Seeing Nathaniel, Sawyer Thompson immediately greeted him.
Nathaniel nodded.

Sawyer Thompson continued, "Viola, this is the Divine Doctor who successfully brought you back to consciousness."
Viola sat on the hospital bed, slightly raised her eyes, and simply looked at Nathaniel, "Divine Doctor."
Three very light words.
But they inexplicably caused Nathaniel to pause.
Unclear feeling.
Nathaniel didn't think much about it, "Miss Thompson, I heard you're familiar with golden needle acupuncture?"
"Mm." Viola nodded slightly.
This little girl, not humble at all.
Looking at Viola, Nathaniel was reminded of someone.
Nathaniel continued, "Miss Thompson, your current condition is very bad. Golden needle acupuncture is not the same as acupuncture. If there's a mistake in one step, it might lead to lifelong paralysis, so you must make a good decision!"
A little girl, obviously not knowing the seriousness of the situation is very normal, so he needed to educate her well.
"I know all that." Viola nodded lightly.
Nathaniel just looked at Viola, with an indescribable look in his eyes.
He just felt that her gaze at him was very strange.
No respect, just a common look.
And it even gave him a feeling that Viola was looking down on him.
But obviously he was older than Viola. Whether in the medical field or in terms of age, he was her senior. How could she look at him this way?
It must be an illusion!
It must be an illusion.
Viola continued, "Divine Doctor, let's begin."
Finishing her sentence, she looked at the other people in the room, "Mom, Dad, Lentz, you guys go out first. The Divine Doctor and I are going to start the golden needle acupuncture."
Nathaniel was taken aback.
We...we're starting now?
