Chapter 502 Her Anesthetic
Nancy felt a little wronged and a little angry. She stared at the man who suddenly got furious. “I’m the
one who’s allergic, not you. Why are you yelling at me? If it weren’t for fear of embarrassing you, would
I have eaten so many shrimps and crabs? How ungrateful you are!”
“You…”
Keith’s anger instantly subsided, and an even deeper sense of guilt made him lower his head. He softly
said to the woman, “How could you be so silly? I thought you loved eating it, so I kept peeling it for
you…’
“You’re the silly one!’
Nancy glared at the man and complained, “Even if I loved eating it, you didn’t have to peel it for me. I’m
not your… What’s the point of spending so much effort?’
Keith sighed and shook his head. “Right. I’m the fool. I’m the biggest fool in the world… You’re smarter
than me. You know everything.”
Cordell watched the two people’s sweet interaction, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
“Nancy, we need to deal with your allergic reaction as soon as possible. Follow me first.’
He walked around Keith, held Nancy’s hand, and spoke with concern.
“Can we change to another doctor?’
Keith was very upset, his beautiful eyes glanced at the “claw” on Nancy’s arm, wishing he could cut it
off directly.
“Dr. Norman’s medical skills are top-notch. It’s more appropriate for him to treat the patient’s condition
to avoid any sequelae.” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
The examining doctor sincerely advised.
“Haha, so because his medical skills are high, he can just touch the patient? Is this a hospital or a
brothel?”
“Hey, sir, your words are too harsh. We won't allow you to be unreasonable to Dr. Norman, or we can
refuse to treat the patient.”
“Did I say something wrong? He’s a doctor with no medical ethics. Why is he randomly grabbing the
patient’s hand?”
Left with no choice, Cordell quickly let go of Nancy’s hand. He pushed his glasses, giving Keith a half-
smile. ‘I apologize, my relationship with the patient is a bit special, and I acted impulsively. I will be
more careful.”
“However, even if I was inconsiderate, it should be the patient who raises the issue, not an outsider like
you. What if, from the patient’s perspective, she doesn’t feel offended?”
Keith was infuriated. He didn’t expect this young man, who looked gentle and bookish, to be so
cunning. He couldn’t stand people like that!
“Cutie Nancy, do you feel offended? Do you want to change the doctor? At least express your opinion,
so it doesn’t look like I’m causing a fuss.”
“No!”
Nancy responded decisively, looking at Cordell. ‘I trust your medical skills. You must heal me and not
leave any scars, or it’ll be impossible for me to get married.’
“Don’t worry, I’ll do my best for you.”
After Cordell finished speaking, he guided Nancy to follow him with a victorious posture.
“Where are you going? I want to go too!’
Seeing this, Keith immediately followed, persistently trying to persuade Nancy like a childish schoolboy.
‘There are so many good doctors in the world. With just one phone call, I, Keith Guerra, can summon a
whole row of them. Why do you insist on letting this guy treat you?”
“This guy looks so young, thus his clinical experience is surely not enough. Be careful not to end up
with a pig’s face when you entrust your face to him!”
When they reached the treatment room’s door, a nurse stopped Keith. “The doctor is about to start
treating the patient. Sir, since you’re a family member, please stay outside.’
“It’s not like it’s a surgery, why can’t family members enter? Is this hospital even legitimate? Do you
want me to file a complaint?’
“Sorry, sir, you really can’t enter. Please don’t delay the patient’s treatment.”
No matter how much Keith made a fuss, the nurse dutifully kept him outside the door.
Nancy sat in the treatment room’s chair, listening to Keith’s rascal-like yelling outside, feeling both a
headache and confusion.
What was wrong with him today? Did he drink too much alcohol and go crazy? Why was he suddenly
so out of control?
“Move your head a little closer.’
Cordell, wearing white gloves, was preparing to apply anti-allergy medication to
Nancy with a professional technique. He called out several times, but the woman seemed not to hear.
Her attention was apparently drawn to the noise outside.
“Oh, sorry.”
Nancy finally noticed what the man had said and moved her head accordingly.
“This medication may be a bit irritating. When applied, it may hurt a bit, but the effect is excellent and
can quickly reduce swelling. Just bear with it.”
Cordell patiently introduced the medication to the woman while applying gently.
“What did you say… Ah!”
Nancy was still not listening to the man, but instead focused on what Keith was saying outside. When
she heard certain words, she couldn’t help but laugh, and then… the medication on her face caused
her to cry out in pain.
“What are you applying on me? Are you sure you’re not trying to ruin my face?”
Nancy could hardly bear the burning pain on her face, feeling as if a layer of sulfuric acid had been
applied, almost killing her.
“It’s a strong anti-allergy ointment, made entirely from plant extracts. The acidity is a bit higher, so it will
stimulate the skin and cause severe pain. But the effect is good and has no side effects. It’s the safest
to use.”
Cordell explained while increasing the amount of medication.
Then, the entire corridor was filled with Nancy’s howling, ’Ah, it hurts so much. I feel like I’m going to
die from the pain. I don’t want to be treated anymore. It feels like my face is being burned off. It hurts so
much!”
“Bear with it, it’ll be over soon. If the pain is too much, just grab my arm!” Cordell felt sorry for her, but in
order to help her recover from the allergy as soon as possible, he had to continue applying the
medication.
Keith, outside the door, heard Nancy’s hell-like screaming and became even more out of control.
That guy with glasses must be up to no good. My friend is calling for help. Let me in; I have to go in!
He no longer wanted to be polite, forcibly pushing the nurse aside and barging into the treatment room.
“Bastard, you call yourself a doctor? You actually took advantage of your position to harass the patient!
Today, I will see justice done, and I will…”
Keith was about to kick Cordell, who he thought was up to no good, and had already stretched out his
leg.
Then, he saw Cordell applying medication to Nancy’s face. Cordell was shocked.
The same went for Nancy.
Keith was extremely embarrassed. He coughed lightly and slowly lowered his leg. “Oh, I see you’re
busy. Please, continue.”
Cordell’s face turned icy cold, and he raised his voice towards the nurse outside the door. “Natalie, call
security to kick him out. If his interruption affects the treatment, who will be the one to take
responsibility for that?”
“No need. I can leave on my own.’ Keith, whose face was burning with shame, still managed to
maintain his playboy demeanor. He raised his fist towards Nancy. “Don’t worry, I’ve got your back. No
one can hurt you.”
Nancy couldn’t help but smile. “Thank you, but I would be grateful if you could act more normal.”
Surprisingly, Keith’s outburst seemed to have a numbing effect on the woman, and she no longer felt as
much pain. She even felt… a bit pleased.
“What is your relationship with him?”
After finishing treating the woman, Cordell couldn’t help but ask.
