All Too Late

Chapter 56

Kathleen stepped forward and stared at the doctor with pleading eyes. “Let me do it! Please, let me try!”

The doctor knitted his brows and asked, “You?”

She explained, “I’m Kathleen Johnson. My parents used to be doctors here. My grandfather as well.”

Upon hearing that, the doctor frowned.

The head nurse verified, “Doctor, her father is the former director, Dr. Johnson.”

“You’re Dr. Johnson’s daughter?”

I never heard about her attending medical school though…

“Doctor, please let me save him,” Kathleen said coldly.

The doctor frowned and replied, “But…”

“Please, I beg you!” Kathleen pleaded with determination in her eyes.

Upon seeing her gaze, the doctor stepped aside.

Kathleen took out her set of silver needles and placed them at the side.

Everyone was in shock.

Is she using traditional medicine?

Kathleen took a needle and inserted it into the acupoint on top of Benjamin’s head.

She then inserted a few more needles into other acupoints on his head.

Following that, it was his heart, palms, and soles of his feet.

Finally, she took the last needle and gently inserted it into his forehead.

Seconds had passed, and the electrocardiogram was still static.

Everyone had prepared to face the worst outcome.

Benjamin was actually not breathing anymore. He was a goner.

Gemma stared at Kathleen’s back in a daze. She burst into tears.

She wailed, “Benjamin, wake up! Open your eyes and look at the girl you like in front of you! Do it for her!”

Kathleen was dumbfounded.
