    Chapter 1404 Believe In Me


    Unfortunately, Doreen''s arm remained the same. Meanwhile, Olivia was able to tell from her


    determined expression that she had tried hard to lift her right arm, although her effort was futile. "What


    about your legs? Try moving them."


    Doreen did as Olivia told her and was only able to move them a little, but in spite of the slight


    movement she was able to make, it was still not enough for her to walk. Besides that, she could not


    utter any syble clearly, although she could make rattling sounds from her throat.


    Olivia sighed helplessly, unknowingly scaring Albert. "How is it, Miss Maxwell? Please don''t tell me


    you''re at your wits'' end too."


    Olivia pondered for a second and replied, "Well, there is still hope, but it''ll take time. General Bleu''s


    condition is critical and serious, so I need you to understand that it''s impossible for her to go back to


    normal in such a short period of time."


    Albert heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Olivia''s words. Deep down, he nearly had a heart attack


    because he thought Olivia was going to give up on treating Doreen. "So, you''re saying you can treat


    her, although it''s going to take time. Am I right?" he asked in an anxious manner.


    Olivia nodded and replied, "Yes. If she is going to recover and go back to her normal life, it''ll probably


    take more than a year before that happens, provided that she actively follows our instructions." She


    then turned to Doreen and asked, "General Bleu, do you believe in me?"


    Doreen nodded with difficulty to signify her positive response. Yes, I believe in you, Olivia. Fixing her


    gaze upon Olivia''s face resembling nchett''s, she somehow felt a strange sense of intimacy, which


    reassured her that it was the right thing to ce her faith in Olivia. I''m not asking for a lot. I just want toN?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    recover from my disease, even if I may not live the way I used to. In fact, I''ll be more than happy if I can


    talk properly again.


    No one could understand the hopeless feeling of lying in bed without being able to move at all than


    Doreen could, let alone empathize with her. In fact, she was haunted by the fear that she would one


    day wake up and realize she was no longer able to walk, talk, or move a muscle at all. Tormented by


    the terror, she would do her best to move each part of her body day by day to make sure they still


    worked fine.


    As the doctors, who were approached to treat Doreen, came and left, her heart was broken by


    disappointment with each time that happened. After all, most of them didn''t take her condition seriously,


    as they left shortly after a perfunctory diagnosis. Although there were also a few doctors who wanted to


    cure her of her disease, they would usually not promise anything because they barely had any


    confidence at all. Nheless, Olivia struck Doreen differently, being the famous Doctor Bailey despite


    her young age. Because of that, she had a feeling that Olivia would be an exception, and the fact that


    Olivia was confident in treating her condition only added to her joy even more.


    It''s fate, perhaps. It''s fate that brought the two of them together. Albert, who was also excited with the


    news, said, "Okay, we will be sure to cooperate. What should we do?"


    "Mr. Bleu, I need some peace and silence here. Now, please keep quiet and give us both peace of


    mind." Olivia responded.


    Upon finishing her sentence, she reached for her ck bag and took it from Eugene''s hand,


    whereupon she took out a small white fabric bag that contained the acupuncture needles.


    "Please leave us alone, everyone." Albert immediately sent all the maids in the room away, leaving only


    himself, Eugene, and Hugh with Olivia.


    As everyone else didn''t dare to make a sound, Eugene, who seemingly knew Olivia was going to


    perform acupuncture, grabbed himself a chair and sat down like he was enjoying a show in a rxed


    manner.


    At the same time, Albert couldn''t take his eyes off Olivia either, not because he didn''t trust her, but


    because he was fascinated with what she was doing. After all, it was said that alternative medicine had


    a long history, which included acupuncture that was used to treat many diseases. Although many of the


    doctors whom Albert approached earlier also knew how to perform acupuncture, most of them were old


    men who were in their fifties or sixties, but even so, their techniques were not as skilled as hers. How


    did she manage to locate those pressure points so urately without even taking a closer look?


    Half an hourter, Olivia had needles ced all over the pressure points on Doreen''s body. After that,


    she struggled to stand on her feet while holding her waist in exhaustion, her forehead covered in cold


    sweat.


    Meanwhile, Eugene felt sorry for Olivia as he walked closer to her and wiped the sweat off her


    forehead with a handkerchief. "Take it easy. Rest if you have to."


    "I''m fine." Olivia took the handkerchief and wiped her forehead by herself.


    Nevertheless, Eugene couldn''t care less about what Olivia said as he grabbed a chair for her and sat


    her on it. Then, he brought her a freshly brewed cup of tea and asked, "Do you have any idea why I


    came to you?"


    Olivia responded by giving her husband a doubtful look.
