Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 522

Though she was touched by the gesture, Olivia raised her brow at Eric. She had indeed failed to consider the

thoughts and feelings of others. Though she knew full well what she was capable of, the others around her did not.

It was to be expected that the others would be skeptical about her.

She looked at Eric and intentionally frightened him by saying, "You sure about that? I won't be held responsible if

anything goes wrong!"

He replied in a casual tone, "Of course, let me have it! I won't seek compensation from you if anything goes

wrong."

Smiling, Olivia replied cheerily, "Since you placed your faith in me, I won't be billing you the medical fees for this."

Eric broke into laughter, for he did not take Olivia's words seriously.

In response, Olivia pouted innocently at Eric. "What are you laughing at? I'll let you know that my fees are

expensive!"

Eric guffawed. "Then I'll gladly accept your service gratis."

As though infected with Eric's laughter, Olivia smiled as well. "Alright, that's enough. Now lie down and stay quiet!"

After giving her instructions, she inserted one of the needles into his lower back and immediately inserted another

in his foot.

After the insertion of the second needle, the crowd's attitude turned from skepticism to shock. Their thoughts

became all but one: She actually knew what she was doing?

Sean, out of curiosity, had planned to observe Eric undergoing the acupuncture, but it didn't take long for his

stomach to start acting up again. In the end, he had to rush back to the restroom with his hands over his stomach.

Even after Sean left, the others continued to lay their curious eyes on Eric. Though his body had already been

inserted with a few acupuncture needles, he still looked as if he was enjoying himself through the process.

His face showed no expression of being in pain at all.

On the other hand, small sweat beads were collecting on Olivia's forehead. Jewel assisted her by handing her a

piece of tissue to wipe it whenever Olivia stopped for a moment.

Olivia looked over at Eric and asked, "You'll have to stay like this for 20 minutes. Are you feeling cold? Do you need

me to adjust the air conditioning temperature for you?"

Eric replied, "I'm fine."

Without waiting for Olivia to speak, Director Norris interrupted them. "What do you mean fine? You're staying like

that for 20 minutes?" He then ordered his assistant, "Go and turn up the temperature in here."

As the assistant followed the director's orders and left the area, Director Norris looked at Olivia in amazement. "I

didn't know you're this talented."

"I just dabbled in it a little!" she replied modestly.

The director then turned to address Eric. "How are you feeling?"

In an enthusiastic tone, he replied, "It feels so comfortable that I'm getting sleepy!"

Among the crowd, Summer gritted her teeth in frustration. She never knew that Olivia had the knowledge and skills

to give someone an acupuncture treatment.

It all started back when she had questioned Zoe, who had just had her contract terminated, on the reason for her

termination. Zoe explained to Summer that it was because she was accused by Olivia—that Zoe had stolen Olivia's

design and wore the same dress. In the end, the incident grew slightly out of hand that it resulted in the termination

of Zoe's contract.

Summer only wanted to give Olivia a little trouble as revenge for Zoe. However, she never bothered to find out just

who Olivia was and what she was capable of undertaking.

Yet, the question remained: if Summer was this skilled as a TCM doctor, why was she going around playing as an

actor?

The crowd also started whispering among themselves.

"Who knew Olivia really can walk the talk?"

"Right? Even Sean hadn't returned from the restroom. Don't tell me he's still stuck in there?"

"That's a given. Olivia had even offered to treat him, yet he rejected her with the excuse of his fear of needles. Isn't

it obvious that he had no faith in Olivia's ability in the first place?"

Though they continued gossiping among themselves, they showed no signs of leaving, as though they were

determined to find out if Eric would recover from the treatment, or if he was just putting on a show right now.

However, 20 minutes had passed, yet Eric had not shown any signs of wanting to use the restroom.

Furthermore, Sean who had gone to the restroom still had not returned. It showed the crowd how effective the

acupuncture treatment Olivia gave to Eric was.

After Olivia had finished pulling the needles off Eric, she said, "Keep your stomach covered at all times for now!"

Eric nodded heartily. "Understood. Thank you very much, Olivia!"

"It's nothing," Olivia said as she packed up her things.

Sean's assistant was running to the restroom after observing what had transpired. The assistant then stood in front

of a closed-door inside the restroom. "Mr. Landon, Mr. Gabel seems to have recovered after Miss Maxwell gave him

the acupuncture treatment. She seems to be packing her things now. What do you think? How about asking Miss

Maxwell to give you the acupuncture treatment as well?"
