A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 35

"No. Mr. West Senior is in good health now, so I'm a little confused. Actually, since his illness flared up, he should've been in grave danger."

As Francesco spoke, he realized that his words were a little improper. So, he hurriedly told Benedict, "I'm not trying to curse you. I was just stating facts."

"I know," Benedict replied. "Mr. Longman, please tell me. Was that young lady's needling therapy very helpful?"

Ever since he was treated by Demi, Benedict felt that his body seemed very light. He thought that he was mistaken, but Francesco's diagnosis proved him right.

Frowning, Francesco tilted his head to one side. "This can't be confirmed. After all, we've invited renowned traditional medicine doctors to treat you with needling therapy before, but it didn't help. How could a young lady like her be so capable?"

Felix narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. Suddenly, he looked a little frustrated. "I didn't get her contact number just now."

That was because he wasn't prepared to ask her for help in the future.

Benedict was taken care of by many famous doctors. It would be impossible to ask a young woman to treat him instead.

"That's right!" Sean's eyes widened as he came to a realization.

"It's fine. Didn't she say that she worked nearby? What's her job again?" Benedict narrowed his eyes, trying hard to jog his memory.

"She said she was filming something," Sean replied.

"Does she sell things on that show?" Francesco asked instinctively.

Was she an influencer? If that was the case, she didn't seem like an impressive doctor.

"I think it was a livestream for a variety show," Felix replied.

When he passed by the place the previous day, he had noticed a group of celebrities and a production team. So, he could make a guess.

"What's that?" Benedict asked curiously.

"Mr. West Senior, it's for a variety show. However, this is different from old variety shows. It airs in real-time, so the audience will be able to watch it on their phones."

"Oh." Benedict nodded. "So, can we watch her work on our phones?"

"Yes." Everyone nodded.

"Please teach me how to do that. I don't have anything to do because I'm an old man. I wonder… What's she doing now?" Benedict looked rather eager.

Those who learned psychology knew that crossing one's arms was an act of hostility.

As such, Thomas sensed Maria's resentment.

However, he assumed that it was because he had disturbed her sleep and made her irritated.

"It's all a misunderstanding. I wanted to explain the situation to her. Is she inside that room?" Thomas pointed at the other room.

"Hmph! What misunderstanding?

"He treated her biological sister like a housekeeper. Why would that be a misunderstanding?" Maria sneered to herself.

"Why don't you tell me what you want? I'll pass the message to her." Maria's eyes were filled with mockery.

Then, Thomas fell silent.

Once Demi entered the courtyard, she saw Maria blocking the entrance and crossing her arms while Thomas stood outside the door.
