Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty

Diana didn't believe Yolanda and even ignored the pain to pull her left leg back a little.

But her movement shifted the bones, which caused another piercing pain in her ankle.

"Ah!" Diana yelped as her face twisted and paled from the pain.

Yvonne quickly moved forward and reached out to pat her back.

Then, she chided Yolanda with a frown, "Our mother is already hurt. Can you not make snide and careless comments?

"Mom, hang in there for a while longer. The liniment will be here soon!"

"Okay…" Weary from the exertion, Diana sank into the couch weakly. She felt somewhat aggrieved.

Harold hadn't returned from his business trip yet, and there was no one in the family that she could rely on.

If this had happened in the past, she would have thrown a tantrum. However, the relentless pain had drained her of any energy to do so.

At that moment, Yvonne suddenly exclaimed in shock, "Yolanda, what are you doing? Our mom's leg injury is serious. Don't touch her!"

Diana strained to lift her head.

By then, Yolanda had crouched beside her leg.

As soon as Yolanda touched Diana's calf, she shrieked. "Ah! You heartless girl, are you trying to kill me?"

Ignoring her shrieks, Yolanda held her ankle and snapped it upward.

There was a loud crack, but the dislocated bones were mended.

"Ahhh…" It hurt so badly that Diana cried. She couldn't speak due to the excruciating pain, and all she could do was wail.

Furious, Yvonne pointed at Yolanda and scolded, "Yolanda, you've gone too far! Even if you're displeased with our mom, you can't treat her like that. If her injury has worsened, I won't let you off."

After that, Yvonne quickly crouched down to check Diana's ankle gingerly and asked with concern, "Mom, how are you feeling? Hang in there…"

At first, it hurt so bad that Diana couldn't speak. However, once the pain eased, she felt that her left leg, which had been inert, could now move. Moreover, the piercing pain from before had vanished. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Huh?" Diana wiped her tears and tried to move her ankle again. "It doesn't seem to hurt that much anymore…"

"What?" Yvonne froze. "Mom, is it so painful that you've gone numb?"

"No, it really doesn't hurt anymore."

Excitedly, Diana placed her left leg on the floor, then slowly got up from the couch. She even took a few small steps.

Then, she looked at Yolanda in shock. "What did you do?"

Yolanda replied calmly, "Your joint was dislocated. Setting it back fixed it. But you can't do any intense workout for a week, and you can't run either."

As she spoke, she pulled out a wet wipe from a box on the coffee table. Then, she turned to leave the living room.

"Yolanda, stop putting on an act. How could you possibly know how to set bones?" Yvonne said toward her back in annoyance.

"Mom, don't believe her lies. Perhaps your injury was not that serious in the first place and would heal after resting for a while."

There was no way Yvonne would believe Yolanda was capable of that. How could a person with no medical training know how to set bones?

"That's probably it…" For once, Diana didn't berate Yolanda with Yvonne but instead stared thoughtfully at her back.
