A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 120

A netizen asked, "Doesn't this sound fake? How could Demi cure Nigel so quickly?"

"Evidently, he's fawning over her."

"Why would Mr. Yale have to fawn over her?"

"I think he's speaking the truth. He does look more relaxed."

Meanwhile, Ana pouted disdainfully; she felt that Nigel was just flattering Demi.

No matter how skillful Demi was, she couldn't possibly cure someone immediately.

Once the videographer captured Ana's expression on camera, more comments appeared.

"What's up with Ana's expression? She looks rather contemptuous."

"That's normal. She's rivals with Demi."

"How dare she look disdainful? If it wasn't for her, the other guests wouldn't have suffered that much! Thanks to Demi, everyone's condition improved!"

"To be honest, Ana's expression looked terrible just now!"

"Why can't she pout? Demi was rude to her too!"

"Demi showed her displeasure freely while Ana secretly pouted behind her back! I prefer Demi's attitude!"

With that, the fans started quarreling in the comments.

"That's great." Meanwhile, Demi smiled and removed the needles from Connor's hands before doing the same to the others.

When Connor rubbed his belly, he looked amazed. After looking at Nigel, he glanced at Demi. "I think I feel better too!"

"Good," Demi replied, removing the needles from Wendy and Sally.

Just when Thomas was contemplating whether he should ask Demi for help as well, he heard her phone ring incessantly.

"Is someone from your team looking for you?" Wendy asked.

Demi looked at her phone and nodded. "Yes."

Then, she texted her team. "I'll go back now."

Lifting her head, she told everyone, "I'll help you light your fires before going back."

"It's alright, Demi. We changed matches with the production team yesterday," Nigel replied cheerfully.

Since his stomachache disappeared, he was overjoyed at the thought of eating seafood later on.

"Okay. I'll head back now." Waving her hands, Demi turned and ran away.

Yet, three seconds later, she rushed back again.

"How long will it take for her to reach there?" The distance seemed too far for Wendy to fathom.

The staff shook their head in reply.

"The long-distance runner who broke global records, Kieran Eloid, took two hours to run 25 miles! No one has ever broken that record before. It takes four hours to run the same distance for the average person," Connor declared.

"Does it take that long?" Wendy and Sally raised their voices in astonishment.

"Are you mistaken? It couldn't be 25 miles!" In the meantime, Ana looked at the staff.

"It isn't a mistake. We were shocked as well, so we verified the distance a few times previously." The staff smiled.

After hearing that, Ana fell silent.

"How did she run all the way here without panting?" Sally wondered aloud.

Wendy explained, "Demi is skilled in martial arts."

She muttered to herself, "Did she really run for four hours?"

Wendy felt touched. She only sent a message to Demi, yet the latter ran 25 miles to see her.

But why was Demi so indifferent to Ana and Thomas? What did they do to her?
