Chapter 786

Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me

She explained, “Given that you stay deep in the hills where the air is fresh, and the fact that she doesn’t
smoke, it is unlikely for her to get lung cancer. However, don’t forget that the mines create a lot of
pollution. Let me guess, did Josee work in the mine when she was still healthy? As for the other
miners, do many of them smoke?”

Nigel nodded. “Yes, my wife worked as a cook there. During mealtimes, the miners would smoke while
they gathered and rest.”

“Precisely.” Arielle explained, “Over time, breathing in all the secondhand smoke and dust from the
mine will cause lung cancer. Moreover, given the working conditions, Henrick should have provided his
workers with masks and health check-ups. Unfortunately, he isn’t someone that would do that.”

“I see. So that’s what happened…”

While both of them were still chatting, Josee finally woke up.

“Josee, how do you feel?” Nigel hurried to her side.

Taking a deep breath, she noticed the uncomfortable sensation in her chest had been alleviated.

When she reported what she felt, Nigel dropped to his knees right away.

“Ms. Moore, you really are a miracle doctor. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!”

Feeling embarrassed, Arielle quickly got Vinson to help Nigel up.

She replied, “She requires at least five treatment sessions. Also, given her need for fresh air, she
needs a new place to stay as the pollution from the mine has reached this place.”



“I… I’ll move at once deeper into the hills.”

After giving it some thought, Arielle suggested to Vinson, “Why don’t we take them back with us to
Jadeborough? I can treat her with acupuncture and herbs. After that, we can send her to Carter’s
hospital for radiotherapy.”

Vinson nodded. “Sure. Not a problem at all.”

“It’s decided then!” Looking at the Lowes, Arielle asserted, “You should come to Jadeborough with us.”

Worried that they would be imposing themselves, Josee and Nigel declined right away. However, they
finally agreed after much persuasion from Arielle.

Coincidentally, the herbs and chicken soup were ready.

The bowl of herbs tasted bitter and were hard to stomach. The moment Josee tasted it, she spat it out
right away. After that, she was traumatized by it.

Finally, after much coaxing from Nigel, Josee finished all of it.

Meanwhile, Arielle waited quietly by the side. Just when Vinson was about to ask her what she was
waiting for, Josee began to cough intensely.

Hack! With a forceful cough, Josee vomited a mouthful of black-colored blood.

Arielle heaved a sigh of relief. “After a few more treatments, we will know that your condition is
improving once the blood isn’t black anymore.”

Just as she spoke, Vinson came over with a bowl of chicken soup.

The soup boiled out of the old hen was thick and yellowish. Since Arielle didn’t like oily soups, she
waved her hand to decline, “Why don’t I skip this one?”



Vinson glared at her with a darkened expression. “Drink

it.”

At that moment, Arielle empathized with Josee. With a grimacing expression, she finished the soup in
one go.

Feeling satisfied, Vinson wiped the corners of her oily mouth with his fingertips and remarked, “It’s
about time for us to go.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Turning her head, she blushed when she saw the Lowes grinning at her. She proceeded
to change the subject. “You guys should pack. We’ll be waiting outside.”

Before she finished, she was already halfway out the

door.

Beaming at her response, Vinson followed her out.

The Lowes quickly packed and got into one of the cars behind Arielle.

Coincidentally, Henrick was inside the trunk of that particular car.
