Chapter 120
Charlie nced at Loreen silently and thought, ''You''ve always looked down on me, what''s the point
of revealing myself? It will only give more trouble to both of us.'' 5
So, he decided best to keep it a secret. 2
Likewise, he rescued her for the sake of his dear wife ire, it''s not that he had a special treatment
for her anyway.
Seeing that the man didn''t say a word, Loreen understood that he didn''t want to reveal his identity, s
0 she stopped her curious question. 1
However, she was a woman with a masculine personality that refused to cling to men in any
circumstances. She felt awkward and ufortable for not being able to express her gratitude after
his help. 2
When she wanted to ask again, a hoarse and cold voice echoed in her ears.
"Take off your pants." 1
Loreen looked up in bewilderment. She suddenly felt ashamed and agitated when she saw the
masked man was eyeing her from head to toe. 3
She thought that she had escaped the tiger''sir, but she fell right into the wolf den!
ncing at her surroundings, she was in the middle o f nowhere, the man was so skilled and
strong, no one would hear her even if she shouted at the top of her lungs.
Desperate, Doreen gritted her teeth in despair and warned sternly, "Don''t you dare touch me! I won''t
be abused by anyone! I would rather die before you can d o anything to me!"
Charlie was stunned by her sudden repulsion. Again, h e lowered his voice and said while pointing
at her leg," The stab wound on your hamstring is very close to the aorta, if it is not treated in time,
your leg will be damaged. If I take you to the hospital first before stopping the bleeding, you''ll lose
too much blood and i t will be toote. What do you think I should do?" 9
Doreen stared at him in astonishment, her cheeks were blushing red-hot suddenly. 1
She thought that the man was trying to jump on her, but...
Charlie sighed quietly as he looked at Doreen who looked back at him, dumbfounded.
Doreen cleared her throat and asked timidly, "Cancan you help me stop the bleeding?"
Charlie nodded and said, "Yes, I’ve studied traditional Chinese medicine and can use acupuncture
techniques to stop the bleeding and minimize the injury. Then, you''ll have enough time to go to the
hospital for the follow-up treatment." 5

"Th... thank you," Loreen mumbled quietly, her face was as red as a cherry tomato.
She looked at her wound and felt contradictory and embarrassed.
The stab wound was inconveniently on the upper thigh, she had to take off her pants before he
could treat her wound. 2
But wouldn''t it mean the man would see her bare legs i f she did as he had told? 4
Loreen underwent a strict upbringing from the Thomas family. Loreen kept her distance with other
men physically in the usual days, she wouldn''t let any men have physical contact with her either.
Besides, the family doctor of the Thomas family was a renowned doctor abroad, she doubted that
simple acupuncture could stop the bleeding and treat her injuries.
Loreen pondered of the circumstances and finally said, "Thank you for your help, but please take
me to the hospital, I think I can make it."
Charlie frowned in exasperation, knowing full well what was she thinking about.
Loreen must have thought that her injury was not serious that going to the hospital was the better
option, but she didn’t know that the reason why she felt alright now was that he secretly interjected
a trace of Reiki into her body when he was carrying her. 5
Otherwise, how else could she have survived until now? She would have died from losing too much
blood!
Truth be told, Loreen really thought that the injury she sustained was not serious, so she wanted to
stand up. However, as soon as she moved, the wound tore open and a burst of hot blood spurted
out of the wound.
Stars and ckness suddenly overtook her sight. Her legs went jelly and she copsed on the floor,
her face as pale as snow. 1
Charlie frowned and said, "See? I told you, if you move around again, you can say goodbye to your
leg. Even if you go to the hospital now, it’s impossible to treat it. Besides, you’re losing too much
blood, you''ll die in hypovolemic shock before the ambncees. So, treatment or die, choose
now!”
