Chapter 1924 In Mortal Danger Roxanne shook her head and politely denied it.

The truth was that she was using Cerulean Needle Technique's last move. To do the challenging technique of inserting needles into the head, one had to possess strong mental fortitude and the capability to improvise.

Whenever her mentor did acupuncture on a patient's head, her mentor would pre-set the depth of the insertion to avoid accidents.

However, things were urgent earlier. Roxanne had noticed Yennefer's bloodshot eyes, agitation, and skyrocketing blood pressure. The stress on her heart had been too much for her.

Thus, Roxanne reminded Jones, “Mr. Lann, we can't delay any further in treating Mrs. Lann's condition. We have to stabilize it as soon as possible. Otherwise, she'll be in mortal danger if her blood pressure gets too high and her heart can't keep up.” Jones solemnly nodded, but there was a helpless look on his face.

“I know. That's why | hired so many psychologists, but the main issue we now have is Yennefer's instant agitation upon waking up. She doesn't have a period of calmness that will allow her to receive her treatment.” “Maybe | can lend you a helping hand with that if you trust me,” Roxanne muttered.

As if he had finally found a buoy in the middle of the vast sea, Jones visibly brightened up.

“Of course, of course! You have no idea how happy | am to hear you say that. No matter what methods you use, you have my full support.” Right as Jones said that, Roxanne tugged Lucian.

She then leaned closer to his ear to whisper to him her plan.

Frankly, she was not confident in that plan; she was worried that Jones would not agree to it.

Nevertheless, Lucian nodded and gave her a look that told her he would relay the message to him.

At that, Jones blinked in confusion. Are there any other factors they need to consider? Lucian easily said, “Mr. Lann, here's what Roxanne wanted to say. We have to let Mrs. Lann soak in hot water first before performing acupuncture on various acupuncture points on her body. That way, we'll be able to make her regain her mental clarity.” “That's fine. Why are you worried about that at a time like this?” Jones was open to trying any kind of method for his wife.

Hearing that, Roxanne became a little more confident.

Lucian also gave her an encouraging look.

Since there was no time to lose, Jones immediately told the housekeeper to prepare a huge tub of hot water while he went to talk to Robert and the other psychologists about it. Once his wife regained mental clarity, the psychologists would be able to take the opportunity to provide therapy for her.

Roxanne started cleaning all of her needles with an alcohol burner to sterilize them. Lucian helped her out.

Once everything was prepared, Jones carried his wife's thin body into the bathroom.

He then slowly took off all of her clothes and gently placed her into the tub at Roxanne's request.

The water was so hot that even in her deep sleep, Yennefer furrowed her brows in response.

Roxanne quickly moved over to Yennefer with her needles.

“Mr. Lann, you can leave now, but please ask the lady who filled the tub earlier to come in,” Roxanne told him.

Jones nodded and left the bathroom. The housekeeper soon entered.

Roxanne then asked the housekeeper to hold Yennefer's body up so that Roxanne could begin inserting the needles from the back of Yennefer's neck.

One after another, she inserted the needles.

Roxanne did every insertion meticulously. Once she inserted the needle, she would even gently twist it so that it would reach the ideal spot to agitate the acupuncture point.

“Ma'am, please turn her around,” Roxanne said once she was done inserting the needles into Yennefer's back.

The housekeeper had to hold onto Yennefer tightly to stop the latter from slipping into the water, and it was laborious.

Not long after, both Roxanne and the housekeeper started sweating profusely.
