Chapter 841 Let Me Try

Matthew nodded and retreated. “I’ll leave the rest to you.”

A confused Brian decided to play it cool and checked on the patient with his stethoscope.

Looking forward to hearing some good news, the woman standing beside Brian asked, “How is he, Dr.Pierce? Is my husband alright?”

Brian nodded and answered, “He should be fine by now. All he needs is just some rest—” Before hecould finish his sentence, the patient suddenly let out an obstreperous moan with a pale face, as ifsomething was stuck in his throat.

At the sight of that, the three of them were shocked while she asked, “What’s going on, Dr. Pierce?What’s wrong with my husband?”

Meanwhile, Brian appeared to be equally confused as he had no idea what went wrong. Then, Crystalasked in surprise, “What’s happening, Matthew? I thought he was fine.”

Matthew replied, “I’m not done with the treatment yet. As the octopus’ tentacles were attached to hisblood vessels, it caused his skin to be detached from his body. Now that the octopus has been removed,his skin will try to merge with his body but for that to happen, blood will have to circulate around his bodyor it will lead to localized blood clot. This will either result in localized swelling or breathing difficulties.”

Now that she understood the situation, Crystal glacially chuckled and answered, “Let’s see how he isgoing to deal with the situation!”

On the other hand, Brian was overwhelmed by panic as all of his measures failed to work. As thepatient’s face reddened, his neck began to be covered in veins while his eyes protruded like he was

about to die. Knowing that he would be held responsible if anyone died on his watch, Brian found himselfon the verge of a breakdown because he didn’t even know how to start treating his poor patient.

“Dr. Pierce, please save my husband…” The woman cried, feeling as anxious as her two sons whileBrian’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. Although he wanted to save the patient, he had no idea howto go about it.

It was at this moment when Matthew came over and spoke with a soft voice to offer his help. “Perhaps,you could let me give it a try.”

The woman and her sons gazed at him before she looked at Brian in silence. However, Brian had a sourexpression because if Matthew managed to save the man, he would be the one who cured the patient.

“Dr. Pierce, this is a matter of life and death. If the patient dies here, I wonder where that is going to leadyou! Tsk-tsk!” Crystal casually noted.

In the end, Brian surrendered to his panic and answered, “Please do your thing, Mr. Larson…”

While the patient desperately struggled, Matthew placed his fingertip on the man’s lower jaw and appliedpressure on it. After that, the patient appeared to have a smoother breath as he seemed to feel a lotbetter.

When he saw what had happened, Brian was left with his eyes widened in disbelief. What?! That simple?Needless to say, he was aware of how complicated the situation was because the blood clot had to befirst located before the subsequent treatment could be performed. However, that was exactly what hewas unable to do.

On the other hand, Matthew was able to tell where the blood clot was with just a mere glance at thepatient. Thus, he quickly made his move to treat the patient since he couldn’t afford to make anymistakes. After all, since the blood pressure in that region was unusually high, one mistake could causeprofuse bleeding and even lead to death. Nonetheless, everyone else in the ward was completelyunaware of the potential danger should Matthew fail to perform his treatment correctly.

Soon, the woman and her sons looked at Matthew in surprise as they realized the man they were gazingat possessed extraordinary skills and that Brian was nothing compared to him.

Crystal shot a gaze at them with a cold smile. “So, I bet you guys now know who the one who trulytreated your father is, right?”

While the woman wanted to say something, Brian gritted his teeth and answered, “Hmph! Well, he mighthave stopped your husband’s pain, but I was the one who made the swelling subside! Thus, let’s not getthings mixed up!”
