Chapter 767 It Has Nothing To Do With Eve
Audrey stopped Angelina at once. It seemed that she knew what Mandy was doing, so she said immediately, "Dr. Zhou is discharging toxic blood for Adrian."
Sure enough, after a few moments, a notable amount of black toxic blood oozed out from Adrian's wrist. Mandy pressed Adrian's arm tightly. Once she was finished, she immediately bandaged up Adrian.
Everyone was visibly nervous and worried. They only heaved a sigh of relief when Mandy was done.
All the other doctors present couldn't help but be deeply moved. They had been struggling for years to get to the top of the medical world, but they were surpassed by a woman who had long retired. She had performed excellently today without making a single mistake. Audrey actually wanted to give her a round of applause.
Adrian was temporarily out of grave danger now. However, the toxins in his body hadn't been completely cleared out. It was going to be a long and grueling fight to empty his body of all the toxins.
In the dressing room
Mandy and Audrey stood in the same locker room in stillness. Audrey spoke first, breaking the silence. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
"I didn't expect that you would know how to detox blood." Audrey temporarily set aside their differences. As a doctor, she really admired Mandy's medical skills.
"I was just trying," Mandy said modestly as she took off her gown. She seemed relieved.
"You mean you've never tried it before? You were so brave to cut the main artery without any previous experience at all. Weren't you afraid that Adrian would start profusely bleeding out?" Audrey said in utter surprise, eyes widened. 'This woman's crazy, ' she thought inwardly.
"Why would that happen? If we failed to save him because he bled out, do we deserve to be called doctors then? Wouldn't that be an insult to our peers and mentors?" Mandy responded coolly, smiling.
Elizabeth, her mentor, was the one who had taught her the method of detoxing blood. She had only seen Elizabeth perform it once, but she was so mesmerized that she committed the memory to her mind. Today was the first time that she had tried out the method herself. She didn't expect it to be so successful.
Audrey pursed her lips and chuckled. "I really wanted to compete with you and see who is better. But today, I realized that I'm really nowhere near as good as you are."
Mandy changed her clothes as they conversed. She smiled faintly and said, "Are you going to make peace with me now?"
"No. The winner takes all, and the loser has to fall. If I lose, I'll admit my defeat wholeheartedly," Audrey said arrogantly. She didn't want to lose to Mandy, and she put up a tough exterior, although she wasn't as confident as she was when she first came to the JR Hospital.
Mandy pressed her lips tightly and didn't say anything. She could tell what was on Audrey's mind, but she didn't want to expose her—there was no need for it after all.
As Nathan had said, Audrey had saved Adrian's life before. After seeing Audrey's performance that day, Mandy decided to just let her go.
Right now, she was focused on detoxifying Adrian and arresting Eve.
Eve had gone home to the heavily-guarded Su Family's villa a few days before. Even Fred and his men knew it wasn't a good idea to break in when they saw the amount of protection they had put up at the gate of the villa. After all, the JS International and Sus Bank were still in cooperation. With the huge stakes at risk, Fred had no choice but to call Nathan and ask for his advice.
However, the call wasn't answered. Fred had to keep observing in secret. Surely, he wouldn't be able to catch Shaun's precious daughter.
Serge and Fred had been separated into two groups. As Serge was familiar with the terrain of Ouyang's laboratory, he was responsible for hiring a group of people to catch Ouyang.
This time, the body guards outside Ouyang's lab were all absent. Serge and his men were able to enter Ouyang's laboratory without any obstacles. Just like last time, Serge spotted Ouyang sipping tea in the backyard.
Ouyang wasn't the least bit flustered when he saw Serge break into the lab accompanied by a group of men in black. He calmly sipped his tea and said nonchalantly, "Oh, little brother, it's you again."
Serge looked at Ouyang, seemingly taken aback. 'How could he be so calm? I'm going to make him regret this until he takes his dying breath!' he thought inwardly.
"I'm here to send you to hell where you belong!" Ferocity filled Serge's eyes as he tensed up.
"Ha-ha! Is that what you want? Aren't you afraid that your young master will die with me?" Ouyang coolly put his tea cup down and stood up.
Serge's eyes gleamed with anger. At this moment, time seemed to stop. He frowned at Ouyang and said slowly, "It's really you!"
"Yes, it's me. What's wrong? Who else would it be?" Ouyang sneered. In his anger, he was much more dignified compared to Serge.
"I will make you pay for what you have done," Serge said fiercely, clenching his fists. He was ready to fight.
"Really? Even your master wouldn't dare to do anything to me. What gives you the right to do this then?" Ouyang said aggressively. It was getting increasingly apparent that he wasn't taking Serge seriously at all.
Serge was fuming. It was Nathan who had ordered him to capture Ouyang alive.
It was already confirmed that the poison in Adrian's body had something to do with Ouyang. This was the reason why Nathan couldn't just kill Ouyang that easily. They needed information about the poison, and Ouyang was the only person who had that. If they wanted to get rid of the poison in Adrian's body, then they would need Ouyang for that.
Serge kept a cold and straight face, not saying a word. He walked aside and called Fred.
Just as Fred was about to break into the Su Family's villa, he immediately pulled himself together after receiving Serge's call.
"Fred, I've already caught Ouyang. He admitted that he was the one who had poisoned Adrian. Have you caught Eve yet?" Serge asked diplomatically.
"Not yet. It's hard to break into the villa. Eve is in the Su Family's villa right now," Fred said, frowning. He had wondered why Shaun stayed home all day.
Ouyang had good hearing, so he overheard the conversation between Serge and Fred. Upon the mention of Eve, he instantly smiled. He said, "Nathan is hilarious. How could he do that to a woman who's in love with him?"
Hearing this, Serge immediately turned his head and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"I poisoned Adrian on my own. Eve had nothing to do with it," Ouyang confessed solemnly. He seemed quite serious.
Serge didn't expect that Ouyang would confess to his crime so easily. What surprised him even more was Ouyang claiming that Eve was innocent. He found that very hard to believe. He placed his call with Fred on the speaker so that Fred could hear what Ouyang was saying.
"How did you poison him?" Serge looked sharply at Ouyang. It was obvious that he didn't believe what Ouyang had said. How could Ouyang have gotten a hold of Adrian to poison him in the first place?
"It was super easy. When the kindergarten had a physical examination, I went in pretending to be a doctor," Ouyang said with a light smile. He didn't even seem the least bit sorry about what he had done. If anything, he seemed pleased with himself.
