Chapter 350
While taking Lucas' pulse, Yolanda frowned again. She noticed that aside from the poor circulation of blood,
Lucas didn't have any other symptoms.
However, the poor circulation alone shouldn't have caused the chest tightness and palpitations he was
experiencing.
Frowning, Yolanda said, "Your condition isn't serious. | can do sacupuncture to help clear the blockage."
"Acupuncture?" Lucas looked surprised for a moment before shaking his head. "No way. | have a fear of needles!
Doctor, just prescribesmedicine. | can manage with pills."
"Your symptom doesn't require medication."
After sthought, Yolanda continued, "If you're afraid of needles, then we can try dietary supplements."
"I don't know anything about dietary supplements. It's too complicated. I'm busy running my business, so just
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgivespills to keep on hand for emergencies."
Yolanda raised her gaze and scrutinized Lucas. It was rare for a patient to request medication so actively unless
they were hypochondriacs.
However, based on her years of medical experience, Lucas didn't seem like a hypochondriac. His attitude was
puzzling.
"Doctor, are you listening to me?" Noticing that Yolanda remained silent, Lucas grew impatient. "Just hurry up
and prescribesomething. | need to get back to my shop."
"Alright, I'll prescribe you spills to ease your condition."
Given the previous incident with Healing Haven, Yolanda had becmore vigilant than ever.
She could easily refuse to prescribe anything to Lucas, but since he seemed suspicious, she wanted to find out
what his intentions were.
So, she deliberately pulled out smotion sickness pills she planned to sell and handed them to Lucas. "These
are your pills. Remember to take them after your meals, and also "
Before Yolanda could finish her instructions, Lucas impatiently twisted open the bottle, poured out the pills, and
swallowed them whole.
His behavior sold him out.
A typical patient, even if anxious to recover, would follow the doctor's advice and not just hastily consume
medication.
But Lucas, as soon as he got the pills, showed a desperate eagerness to take them.
Just as Yolanda suspected, as soon as Lucas swallowed the pills, he clutched his throat in agony. His eyes bulged
as he struggled to force out a few words. "What did you makeeat... It hurts..."
Then, his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the floor.
The patients in Willow Creek Clinic shouted in shock at the sight of Lucas falling.
They stared in disbelief as he struggled for a moment before closing his eyes and lying still. A sense of panic
spread through the room at once.
How could a fine person suddenly collapse?
"He can't be dead, right?" someone in the crowd whispered, causing the entire clinic to fall silent.
If this man truly died, Willow Creek Clinic would be in big trouble.
Dunstan, who had been preparing medicine for another patient, hurried over. Upon seeing Lucas on the ground,
he looked at the expressionless Yolanda, unsure of what to do.
"What happened?" As Dunstan asked Yolanda, he crouched beside Lucas and reached out to check for signs of
breathing.
However, when he did, he discovered Lucas was not breathing at all. Panic surged through him, and he quickly
pulled his hand back.
