Chapter 116
She had just stepped out of the elevator when she heard Jordan and Harvey bickering. “That’s enough
from you. Calling that true love? Which one of your exes didn’t you consider your true love?” “I’ve had
enough of you myself. What does a lifelong bachelor like you know? And love at first
sight? Pfft. Sounds more like hoes before bros to me! I think you should be the one to give her up to
me instead!” “Maybe you should ask my fists what they think about that!”
“Oh, getting serious here now, are we?” “Damn straight we are!” Unsure as to what the disagreement
was about, Arielle intervened immediately upon seeing how close they were toing to blows. “We’re
in a hospital, so what the heck do the both of you think you’re doing?” The two men were caught off
guard and both appeared surprised when they turned and saw Arielle in the lift lobby. “What are you
doing here, Arielle?”
Harvey was first to approach, with Jordan close behind. Arielle was about to speak when Vinson got in
ahead of her. “I brought her over to take a look because she said that she may have an idea for a
treatment. If there’s nothing better for the two of you to do here, quit messing around and just go home
to sleep already.” “Nah! We’re plenty busy, aren’t we, Harvey?” Jordan ignored him and turned to
regard Arielle instead.
“Are you able to address psychological ailments?” Arielle replied humbly, “I just happen to know a little
about post-traumatic stress disorder, so I thought it might be worth giving a shot. Which ward is the
patient at?” Carter pointed to the right. “This one.” Arielle strode forth and went on inside. Carter’s eyes
dimmed as he watched her silhouette disappear beyond the door. He then pulled out his phone to
make a call. “Where are you?
Come up to the thirteenth floor and check on your patient right away.” Vinson frowned when he cast his
gaze upon Carter. “Who did you summon?” “His attending doctor, Dr. Jankowitsch. It wasn’t easy for
me to bring him in from overseas.” Vinson have heard of that distinguished professional, a protege of
the Wilhelms who themselves were considered amongst the top psychologists in the world. This fact
alone spoke volumes of the doctor’s expertise.
However, that gave him a moment for pause. “If Arielle’s already looking into it, then what are you
getting Jankowitsch over here for?” Carter shrugged. “What else. To have him oversee things and
make sure that she doesn’t get the patient killed! We’re clueless about her level ofpetency, so I
don’t think you ought to ce too much trust in her just because she’s friend of yours. You know how
important this fe is and why we need him alive.”
Vinson appeared doubtful but made noment before he made his way in with the others in tow.
Inside the ward, Arielle began examining the emaciated man lying on the bed using the Four
Diagnostic Methods based on ancient Chanaean medical traditions. “Disorientation, sluggishness,
disharmony and dredging imbnce in the liver, hyper-arousal, palpitation and other symptoms… it
does appear to be characteristic of post-traumatic stress disorder.”
The observing Harvey and Jordan pped enthusiastically in approval. “Spot on, Ms. Moore! Bravo!”
“We couldn’t have known that you also possess such a talent. We’re mighty impressed!” Carter
twitched his lips as he did not think much of Arielle merely parroting what he had already said about the
patient’s condition.

At this moment, the door to the ward was pushed open. “Dr. Jankowitsch!” Carter hailed the neer
before he regarded Arielle. “This is the internationally renowned Dr. Jankowitsch who studied under the
illustrious Wilhelms.” Arielle’s eyes widened when she heard name “the Wilhelms” mentioned, because
they were her adoptive parents.
