Chapter 116 Take him as a Part of the Thompson Family
Ten minutes later, James followed Andrew into Gabriella's hospital room.
As soon as they entered the room, the monitoring equipment emitted the most piercing alarm.
Blood pressure dropped to the lowest!
Heart rate dropped to the lowest!
Body temperature also fell below 95 degrees Fahrenheit.
At this moment, Gabriella was just a step away from death!
The medical staff were in a panic; if something happened to Gabriella, it would be their responsibility.
James quickly stepped forward to check.
"Mr. Williams, what should we do now?" Andrew anxiously shouted, "Can Gabriella be saved?"
Mrs. Thompson cried. "Please save her."
Even though Mrs. Thompson often acted superior and arrogant towards outsiders and frequently used her wealth to dominate others, her love and care for Gabriella were genuine, which caused her to be overwhelmed with tears.
Katherine looked at James with a tense expression. "James, are you confident?"
"Yes!"
James simply said one word and then took out silver needles, starting to perform acupuncture on Gabriella.
He then slowly transferred a white glow accumulated from treating Darrell and other patients in the morning into Gabriella's body to repair her organs.
The silver needle hummed, its light flickering, resembling the Big Dipper constellation, gathering souls.
Katherine was excited. She knew this acupuncture technique.
Seeing the identical pattern, she couldn't help but exclaim.
Katherine thought, 'Oh my God, this is a long-lost acupuncture technique. How does this jerk know it and perform it so effortlessly?'
Katherine became even more curious about James and unknowingly felt a bit of admiration.
James didn't pay attention to her gaze, focusing solely on the acupuncture. Moments later, he inserted the last needle.
"Okay!"
Almost at the same moment, Gabriella's body trembled slightly, then her abdomen arched, followed by her shoulders.
Her head tilted back.
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
Everyone was shocked.
Mrs. Thompson shouted, "How is my daughter?"
Before James could answer, Gabriella struggled to open her eyes, and her face became rosy.
"Gabriella, you're awake." Seeing Gabriella wake up, Mrs. Thompson and the others were overjoyed and swarmed around her.
Katherine glanced at the ECG. Everything was back to normal ranges.
She gave James a thumbs up.
James said, "Mr. Thompson, Miss Thompson is out of danger, but she still needs medication to treat her injuries. Have someone prepare some medicine for her. Remember, drink it once in the morning and once in the afternoon for seven days, and then stop."
Andrew quickly wrote down James's words and then called a trusted person to arrange it.
"Alright, Gabriella is fine now." Seeing Andrew remember, James clapped his hands."I'll be leaving now."
Mrs. Thompson instinctively grabbed James. "Mr. Williams, thank you, and I'm sorry for my behavior."
This time, her apology came from the heart. Today, James taught her a lesson that money wasn't everything and showed her his compassion as a healer.
If it were her being misunderstood and slandered, she probably wouldn't have lifted a finger to help.She would seek to vent her anger instead.
"Mrs. Thompson, it's all in the past." James smiled and let bygones be bygones. "Let's not bring up the past."
Mrs. Thompson was extremely grateful and bowed slightly. "James, thank you."
Seeing James turn decisively, Andrew sighed, "What a respected man! Such a person must be befriended. Mrs. Gomez, give him this villa. And tell him, from now on, we'll take him as a part of the Thompson family."
Fifteen minutes later, in the vice principal's office, James was lazily leaning on the sofa, leisurely sipping his tea.
"This is the villa Mr. Thompson has given you, one of the few notable houses in Rosewood City."
Katherine no longer corrected James' nonchalant posture. She handed him a smart door card and a property certificate.
James was shocked. "Are they crazy? That's one of the top wealthy areas in Rosewood City, and any house there costs around 15 million dollars. This is too extravagant."
James also noticed that the smart key card indicated it was a top-tier villa.
"Take it."
Katherine was initially surprised by Andrew's generosity, but considering James's life-saving skills, she understood why Andrew did this.
James was not an ordinary person. The more given now, the greater the return in the future.
Katherine said, "Mr. Thompson instructed me that if you refuse to accept it, I should throw away the door card. You know, he's a man of his word. If he says he'll throw it away, he will. Besides, although the villa is expensive, it's nothing compared to Gabriella's life."
Katherine pushed the door card back into James' hand. "Mr. Thompson also said you don't have to take it serious. This amount is just a fortnight's profit for him. He even made this house a task for me. If you accept this villa, they won't pursue the responsibility of me and the hospital. If you don't accept it, they will sue me and the hospital."
She pouted slightly at James. "Would you bear to see my medical license revoked?"
Katherine added, "By the way, James, your medical skills are so impressive that I want to hire you as the head of the medical department at our hospital. The annual salary is one million and five hundred thousand dollars. Don't worry. Your job is to attract patients and treat difficult diseases; other doctors can handle other minor illnesses. Of course, the annual salary of $1,500,000 is just a guarantee. The fees for curing patients will be split between us: 90% for you and 10% for me. How about it?"
Her eyes were full of anticipation, wishing James would stay.
"Work at the hospital?" James hesitated. "There are too many rules and meetings at the hospital."
"That's not a problem." Katherine waved her hand. "Just tell me, do you want to come or not?"
James played with the key card and then replied, "How about I think about it for two days?"
Katherine smiled. "Alright, think about it."
"Wait, wasn't it you who was supposed to sweep the floor at JZL Medical Hall? How did it become me coming to Rosewood City Hospital?"
James felt tricked. "Hurry up, arrange a time to sweep the floor at JZL Medical Hall. I need to arrange for advertising."
"Shocking! A female PhD does this in broad daylight!"
"Shocking! A hospital director more beautiful than a star is forced down this path."
"Shocking! A beautiful hospital director does this in public!"
"Aren't these headlines sensational?" Before James finished speaking, he shrank his neck and ran away.
Katherine chased after him with a scalpel.
