Chapter 424 The Medicine Tastes Odd


    "No problem," Wi responded.


    Later on, she asked Susan to get a servant and exined the massaging techniques to Susan


    while giving the maid a massage.


    Wi taught her seriously, and Susan learned solemnly.


    After a few hours, Susan''s movements were almost there.


    "Am I doing it right?" Susan asked Wi while massaging the servant.


    "You’re off a little. There is an acupoint in this position, and it’ll only befortable if you apply


    pressure here,” Wi advised her.


    Susan made some changes solemnly. "How about now?"


    She looked back at Wi but saw that she looked tired.


    Susan could not help but feel embarrassed. "I''m so sorry. I’ve lost track of time. You must be tired,


    Ms. Doyle. Sorry to have bothered you today."


    "It’s nothing." Wi smiled.


    Susan asked the servant to leave them and then grinned calmly at Wi. "Ms. Doyle, I still owe you


    an earnest apology. Yesterday... Actually, I was feeling fine yesterday, but I went overboard because


    I was jealous of you and Julian. I now know that I''ve misunderstood. I am really sorry."


    Wi squinted at Susan before a resplendent smile appeared on her face. "It''s okay, just let it go.


    Mrs.


    Shaw, you don''t have to be so polite to me. Just call m e Willie."


    "Okay, Willie. Then you should just call me Susie," Susan asserted cheerfully.


    "Susie." Wi adapted immediately.


    The two girls exchanged a nce and smiled. The atmosphere was very harmonious. It was a pity


    that one of them had a magnanimous mind, while the other had a scheme on her mind.


    After opening up to Wi, Susan obviously felt a lot more rxed. The two of them chatted and


    laughed, and their rtionship improved a lot.


    When Julian came back, he was very pleased to find out that Susan and Wi had gotten closer to


    each other.


    At night, Julian spiked the milk Susan drank before going to bed with a sleeping pill.


    When Susan fell asleep, he called Wi in.


    Wi took out a special instrument and took Susan’s blood. Then, she said, "I''ll check the current


    virus content in her blood first. I will treat her immediately when the result is out."


    "Okay, thanks," Julian said courteously.


    "It''s nothing. I made Joseph a promise, so I''ll definitely do my best." Wi rolled her hair up


    gracefully. "I shall leave for now."


    Julian saw Wi off and then sat back on the bed and gazed at Susan silently.


    ''Susie, there is finally a way to save you. You will truly recover soon.''


    Julian leaned over and kissed Susan on the forehead with indescribable affection in his eyes.


    Everything went smoothly now that Wi had moved i n.


    Julian put Susan to sleep every night and then asked Wi to diagnose her in private.


    Julian did not believe Wipletely. After each treatment, he would still take Susan''s blood to the


    researchb for another diagnosis.


    However, the results proved that the content of the Errol Virus in Susan''s blood was indeed


    decreasing.

    Susan''s condition was improving. Wi was not lying.


    On the other hand, Susan learned massaging techniques from Wi and took the initiative to give


    Madam Shaw a two-hour massage daily.


    After a few sessions, it was obvious that Madam Shaw had lowered her tone when talking to Susan.


    The rtionship between them was also improving.


    When Susan told Serenity about Wi, Serenity did not believe that Julian and Wi were innocent.


    She came over to the Straws to visit a few times but let her doubts go after discovering that there


    was indeed nothing shady between Julian and Wi and she never told anyone about the incident


    at the hotel.


    One month had passed.


    The rtionship between Susan and Wi had been getting better and better. The two of them often


    went out shopping and had afternoon tea, which made them look like close sisters.


    Because of Wi, Susan''s condition kept getting better, so Julian was naturally d to see them get


    along.


    There was only one thing that was worrisome.


    Whenever the weather changed, Madam Shaw’s migraines would get much more serious than


    usual.


    Susan gave Madam Shaw a meticulous massage, but she was still frowning after the treatment, so


    Susan could not help but say, "Let me start from the beginning once again.”


    "No." Wi stopped Susan. "A full session is enough. Anything extra will only have the opposite


    effect."


    Madam Shaw saw the sincere care beaming in Susan’s eyes and felt a sense of sce in her heart.


    She then said with a smile, "It’s okay, it''s already an old illness. It rpses around this time of the


    year, but it''ll get better when the weather stabilizes."


    "Is there no other way around this illness?" Susan could not help but ask.


    "Who knows," Madam Shaw replied casually. "The effect of the Chinese medicine that I''ve been


    taking was marvelous. However, after drinking it for a long time, the effect is not so obvious now."


    A migraine struck as she was exining, so she could not help but frown.


    "Nana, Chessie can blow on it. The pain will go away when you blow it." Chesney stood up and


    blew lightly a t Madam Shaw''s head.


    Madam Shaw''s face rxed a little.


    She was not a person who could not tell apart the good from the bad, so she had started to regret


    her actions after getting to spend some time with Susan and Chesney.


    Perhaps, she really had done something wrong?


    Okay, it was only right to let bygones be bygones anyhow. She should not let Julian get caught in


    the middle all the time. She would not bring up the grudge between her and Susan as long as


    Susan gave birth to a boy. She was already old, and she did not want to sulk around the young


    anymore.


    As soon as Madam Shaw came back to her senses, the atmosphere at home became even more


    harmonious.


    Julian, who was rejoicing in the reconciliation of the two women, had been smiling a lot more


    recently.


    That day, Madam Shaw had to routinely drink her medicine.


    The servant brought the medicine, and Madam Shaw drank it in one gulp habitually. She then


    furrowed her brows andined, "Why does the medicine taste more bitter than usual?"


    She looked at the servant while saying that.


    The servant responded immediately, "Ma''am, it''s the same prescription and dosage. The taste


    should be the same."


    "Then it might be me." Madam Shaw did not take it to heart.


    However, when she got up to leave and have a nap, she felt dizzy all of a sudden. She then vomited


    a mouthful of blood in front of everybody else and dropped to the ground.


    "What happened?" Madam Shaw looked awful. Susan, who was shocked, said at once, "Quick, get


    her to the hospital!"


    Julian rushed over when Madam Shaw was taken to the emergency department.


    "What happened to mom?" He stared at the tightly-shut doors with red eyes.


    Even though she had done too many wrong deeds, she was his mother after all! Julian would not


    know how t o deal with it if something were to happen to Madam Shaw.
