It was a good thing they hadn’t used it on Wanda.
Even Carlisle had barely been able to withstand it. How could Wanda?
His heart would have ached terribly for her!
Rochelle explained, “The device only has a bit of current when it’s started. It’s not strong, either!”
Queenie put the hood on her head. “Turn it on, and I’ll try it out…”
Rochelle hesitated and turned it on.
Queenie’s expression contorted at once. She pulled it off and asked, “Is there a leakage on this device?”
“There shouldn’t be!” Rochelle picked up the hood and put it on her head before turning it on again.
She did feel a hint of a current, but it wasn’t strong. It would be an exaggeration to say that it would kill
someone.
Rochelle smiled stiffly and said, “It’s fine, isn’t it?”
Carlisle’s expression was stormy as he said, “Take it back and use it on yourself, then. I won’t let Wanda
use this!”
Rochelle’s temper flared. She turned to look at Shein and said, “Mr. Thompson, since you don’t trust my device, you had better find someone else. I won’t be able to treat her!”
She stuffed the device into her backpack and walked off.
Shein did not stop her. He drank the rest of his water and looked at Wanda, whose face was streaked
with tears as she hid behind Carlisle.
He looked intently at Carlisle and said slowly, “Carl, it’s been hard on you. I would like to take Wanda to the best hospital for neurology in Yorksle to get her checked thoroughly!”
Carlisle looked conflicted. “I support the idea, but I hope that you’ll be more discerning so you won’t be deceived by any charlatans.
“Many doctors know who you are and don’t care whether the patient lives or dies. All they want is to trick. you out of your money. That psychologist looked like the kind of charlatan who tricks money out of old men and women in rural areas by using a device that people aren’t familiar with!”
He was being faintly accusatory, but Shein did not get angry. He looked shamefaced as he said, “I didn’t think about that. That’s why I’m planning to take Wanda to a proper hospital to get checked!”
When Wanda heard that she would be taken away, she immediately grabbed Carlisle’s arm and sobbed, Carlisle… Don’t leave me, please…”
Her trembling voice seemed to pierce into Carlisle’s heart like a sharp dagger.
She was being silly.

How could he ever leave her?
How could he ever have the heart to do so?
However, Shein was her father!
If Carlisle wanted Shein’s approval, he would have to be rational about this.
When Wanda saw that Carlisle remained silent, she hugged him tightly and screamed, “I’m not leaving! I’m not going anywhere…”
Queenie could not go on watching and turned away, suppressing her own tears.
Carlisle closed his eyes as tears trickled down his cheeks.
He did not want Shein to take Wanda, but this wasn’t something that he could decide on his own.
Shein was polite to him, but that was because Carlisle hadn’t done anything to offend him yet.
As a renowned entrepreneur, Shein would maintain his image. However, if Carlisle forcibly tried to keep Wanda by his side, Shein would be sure to retaliate.
Shein said to Carlisle, “Carl, I’m a little thirsty. Get me some water.”
Carlisle knew he wanted to get rid of him so he could speak to Wanda alone. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
However, he could not refuse, so he took Shein’s empty glass and walked over to refill it.
Shein said to Wanda in a low voice, “Wanda, once you get better, you can come back and continue dating Carlisle. I won’t stand in your way!”
Wana blinked tearfully and looked at Queenie, as if she were asking whether Shein was being truthful.
Queenie smiled and nodded. “Your father wouldn’t lie to you, but you’ve got to cooperate with the doctors so that you can get better!”
Wanda wiped away her tears and nodded vigorously. “I’ll be obedient.”
At that moment, Carlisle walked over and placed a glass of water in front of Shein.
Shein stood up and said, “Queenie, take Wanda downstairs. I’m going to the university to apply for a leave of absence!”
Queenie nodded. “Alright, Mr. Thompson!”
Shein got up and left.
Wanda pressed her red lips together and said, “Carlisle, I’m going to get treatment!”
