Chapter 451: Chapter 451: My Little Sister Has Always Been Frail (1)
Claire North gritted her teeth, suppressing the surge of hatred in her heart, and forced a stiff smile: "Please don’t speak nonsense, although I’ve had some misunderstandings with Raina North, she has always been my sister, the dearest family member in my heart. Your irresponsible comments will harm the bond between sisters."
What Claire North said was heartfelt and sincere, but unfortunately, the reporters didn’t believe her at all.
"It’s easy to say wonderful things, but we all know what’s truly going on. I certainly don’t believe that Raina North would be treated well after her identity was revealed."
"It’s easy to find out, we can ask Raina North, isn’t she present too?"
"Yes, yes! We can inquire with Raina North."
"You heard what Raina North said earlier, please give us an accurate response now."
"Raina North, when your identity was exposed back then, were you mistreated by the North Family?"
"Raina North, speak up, not only the public wants to know the truth, but you must have a lot to say. You might not care about your reputation, but as a mother, I suppose you wouldn’t want the stigma of these matters to affect your child."
"There’s sense in those words." Raina North finally spoke, her gaze scanning the crowd with amusement and settling on Claire North’s anxious look: "Back then..."
"Claire!"
Just then, Rachel Shelby suddenly shouted in surprise: "What’s happening to you?"
Everyone turned to see that Claire North was already pale and had collapsed to the ground.
Rachel Shelby saw everyone standing idly and immediately shouted: "What are you all standing around for? Hurry up and help! Didn’t you see that Claire has fainted? Raina North! Aren’t you Ghost Doctor Nowhere, skilled in medicine? Hurry up and treat Claire!"
Casper North tugged on Raina North’s sleeve: "Mommy."
"It’s alright." Claire North had made her nauseous how many times, finally having such an opportunity to mess with Claire North, she would never let it slip.
Casper North felt relieved seeing this expression on his mommy’s face. Back abroad, whenever his mommy wore this expression, she never lost in a verbal battle.
Raina North stepped forward, took Claire North’s wrist, placed her fingers on her pulse, and suddenly, her eyebrows raised slightly.
She seemed to have discovered something very interesting.
Upon seeing Raina North diagnosing Claire North, the crowd began murmuring: "Could Claire North have fainted deliberately to prevent Raina North from revealing past events publicly?"
"Quite possible."
"If that’s the case, then Claire North would be ridiculously foolish, since Raina North is now known as Ghost Doctor Nowhere, feigning a faint in front of such a skilled doctor is practically courting death."
Raina North heard this, but these assumptions were incorrect; Claire was not courting death, but smart enough to know she couldn’t expose her publicly.
Because the North Family still had someone she cared about.
Grandpa.
Grandpa most hoped for harmony among the sisters, seeing them attack each other would surely leave him heartbroken.
Thus, even though it’s as if she swallowed a fly, she had to endure Claire North this time.
However...
Raina North took out her acupuncture kit, drew out the thickest silver needle.
Looking at the needle tip, Raina North continuously shook her head, dissatisfied: "No, it’s not thick enough. Does anyone have a compass on them?"
Someone asked puzzledly: "Raina North, why do you need a compass?"
Raina North looked sorrowful: "My sister has been unhealthy since childhood, and now she’s deeply troubled, the situation is severe, she needs a sufficiently thick silver needle to stimulate acupuncture points to awaken, or else she’s in danger, she’s still so young...
