Chapter 196 I Am An ExpertChapter 196 I am an Expert
Lachlan finally understood why Allison had asked him for money. It turned out that Kailey was sick
and needed surgery. Having experienced the despair of Nora's illness and the fickleness of human
relationships, Lachlan naturally extended a helping hand to Allison once again.
At this point, Allison was a little lost. Although she felt embarrassed, she didn't refuse Lachlan this
time.
In the car, Lachlan asked about Kailey's illness and her specific situation. After hesitating for a
moment, Allison told him everything.
"Don't worry, I can cure Auntie's illness! Don't be too anxious," said Lachlan after listening.
Allison looked at Lachlan unexpectedly but didn't hold much hope in her heart. How could Lachlan
cure illnesses? She had never heard of it before and thought he was just trying to comfort her.
Lachlan drove quickly to a mid-range community with directions from Allison. Before Kailey got sick,
Allison's family conditions were pretty good - her father worked in a government agency while her
mother sold clothes at the market on her own. However, since Kailey got sick and Nathan started
gambling two years ago and hung out with bad people all day long; their family fell into dire straits!
noveldramaAllison lived on the second floor of an apartment building where they found everyone sitting around
looking gloomy when they entered - Her father sat on the sofa smoking while Nathan stood there
silently with an ugly expression on his face.
Only Kailey sat next to Keagan Singleton smiling as if persuading them about something but it was
clear that smile was forced full of helplessness and sadness."Mom..." cried out Allison angrily as soon as she walked through the door choking back tears.
"Allison! You're back?" Keagan asked.
"Sis, please talk some sense into Mom! We can't let Mom die waiting like this even if we have to sell
our house!" said Nathan in a low voice.
He looked like he was around twenty years old with dyed blonde hair and tattoos on his neck
making him look like some kind of delinquent who did nothing productive all day long except cause
trouble everywhere he went. But judging by his behavior now, he seemed quite emotional.
"What are you talking about selling our house? Where will we live then? Go away from here. You're
not helping!" replied Allison firmly.
"I've already raised enough money!"
Allison scolded her brother, clearly unhappy with his lack of responsibility. The next moment, she
turned to her mother and urged her to go back to the hospital. "Tomorrow we'll arrange for the
surgery!"
At that moment, Kailey furrowed her brow and looked at Lachlan beside Allison before turning to
Nora. "Allison, you mentioned borrowing money from your classmate earlier? Is it this young man?"
Keagan and Nathan also looked towards Lachlan and Nora with a hint of scrutiny in their eyes.
"Yes, he's my classmate - Lachlan," Allison nodded as she introduced him.
Kailey snorted coldly. "What's your relationship with this classmate? He already has a child! Are you
stupid?""That's right! You have so many rich guys chasing after you but you won't accept any of them! Why
did you choose a man who already has a child?" Keagan asked impatiently.
"Sis, are you crazy? Even if it's for Mom's treatment, there is no need to find someone who already
has a child! Aren't those rich second generations better?" Nathan added coldly while staring at
Lachlan disapprovingly. "You're already a father; how shameless can you be? How did you trick my
sister into this?"
Hearing these words made Lachlan frown while Nora looked helpless.
"You guys don't know what you're talking about!" Allison stomped her foot in frustration. "Lachlan
and I are just ordinary classmates!"
"What kind of ordinary classmates? He thinks that because he likes how pretty you look that he can
seduce you or deceive you all," Kailey said angrily.
In Kailey's mind, her daughter could marry someone much better than this man who was entangled
with a child from another woman. If they got involved now and it spread outwards; their reputation
would be ruined forever.
The next second Kailey suddenly turned red-faced as she clutched onto the left side of chest area
tightly while showing signs of pain on face which was quite scary-looking.
"What happened mom?!"
"Mom!!"
"Mom!!"
Keagan and Allison were shocked by what they saw happening before them.Lachlan's face turned cold as he stepped forward and said, "Move aside!"
"What are you doing?" Nathan angrily questioned.
"I'm saving your mother! If you don't want her to die, move aside!" Lachlan replied in a cold tone.
Without hesitation, he pushed Keagan and Nathan away and took out a silver needle from his
pocket. He inserted it into the acupoint on Kailey's wrist.
"Your classmate knows how to cure diseases?" Nathan asked incredulously when he saw what was
happening. "Does he have a medical license? If anything happens to mom because of him, I won't
let him off the hook!"
Keagan also shouted angrily at Lachlan. "What kind of nonsense is this? You're not even qualified
to practice medicine!"
Allison shook her head uncertainly. "I... I don't know either. But since Lachlan has taken action,
maybe we should let him try..."
She looked at Lachlan with some confusion and uncertainty.
Allison couldn't believe that Lachlan had actually offered to treat her mother after claiming that he
could cure her on the way here. Could it be true? She felt both uneasy and hopeful about the
situation.
"Try what?" Keagan yelled impatiently at Allison before turning his attention back to calling an
ambulance for Kailey.
But just then, something unexpected happened: As soon as Lachlan inserted the needle into
Kailey's wrist and infused dragon energy through acupuncture therapy, she immediately relaxed and
stopped showing any signs of pain or discomfort on her face."It feels so comfortable..." Kailey couldn't help but exclaim with relief.
Seeing this scene unfold before them all left everyone stunned: Keagan paused mid-call; Allison
looked surprised; Nathan was shocked too.
"How do you feel now mom?" Nathan asked tentatively.
"I feel much better now," replied Kailey excitedly. "My heart doesn't hurt anymore! It feels stronger
than ever."
Although others were unsure about what had just happened before their eyes, they knew one thing
for sure - whatever treatment method that young man used seemed effective!
Kailey looked up at Lachlan in disbelief asking him curiously, "Young man…do you really know how
to heal people?"
Lachlan chuckled confidently, "Not only do I know how but I am an expert especially when it comes
down heart-related diseases."
Nathan sneered sarcastically upon hearing this claim from someone who appeared quite young,
"An expert huh? You are really good at boasting!"
"Hmph! You can't talk about my dad like that! My dad is the best!" Nora said angrily, looking up with
her small face.
