MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 4 - Season 6 Episode 75

As Karen’s daughter, Cheyenne began to realize more and more that whenever her mother decided to be unreasonable, it was mostly because she had deliberately caused a stir out of a guilty conscience.

The words Karen used to scold Maddy were extremely awful and vulgar. Even though it was the first time she met Maddy, Cheyenne couldn’t bear to hear those malicious remarks.

If not for the guilt she felt for driving Karen away and making her suffer from the abduction by the Taylors, she probably wouldn’t have agreed to let Karen stay in the hospital.

Karen’s jaw dropped. She was deeply shocked by Cheyenne’s unusual action!

“Cheyenne, you… What are you saying? Do you not believe me? Are you going to take this woman’s side instead?”

“Are you silly?! This woman is obviously not a decent person. Which doctor behaves and looks like her? She and Lucas are colluding to deceive you. I’m your biological mother. Why would I harm you?

“Look at the two of them. Lucas brought her here, and he’s now defending her too. Do you really think they’re innocent?

“I’ve been in such situations. I can tell at a glance what tricks this little vixen is using! She claims to be trying to treat your father’s illness? That’s nonsense!”

Karen tried to persuade Cheyenne earnestly while not forgetting to continue framing Lucas and Maddy.

Maddy was so enraged that her face flushed red. She clarified, “Ma’am, you can’t spout nonsense about such things! Lucas and I are innocent! You can’t slander us! If you tarnish my reputation like this again, don’t blame me for suing you in court for defamation!”

Maddy wasn’t a pushover who could be manipulated easily. She decided to use the law as a weapon to warn Karen against spouting nonsense again.

Karen got a great shock, but she soon sneered. “Hah, it seems that you’re really the same as Lucas! I’ve merely made some remarks about you, and you already want to take me to court. I bet you’re intent on driving me away from Cheyenne so that you can take the opportunity to kill Cheyenne’s father and then bully my daughter as you wish, right?

“I’m telling you, you two can dream on! As long as I’m around, you won’t be able to bully me and my daughter!”

Karen was still acting as if she was an advocate of justice as she continued to insult them righteously.

“Enough!” Lucas finally couldn’t take it anymore and yelled, immediately stopping Karen.

Karen merely thought that Maddy was a weak and vulnerable woman who couldn’t stand up for herself, so she had been bullying her and nitpicking on her at every turn. Her agenda was to insult Maddy callously and make her leave.

Thus, she wouldn’t have to be afraid of Maddy checking on William’s condition and saving him so that he would regain consciousness.

How evil and vicious! Lucas thought.

Maddy was his comrade and the person he had specially invited. Why should he stand here and allow a shrew like Karen to continue insulting him and Maddy?

“If you dare insult us again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Icy cold killing intent appeared in Lucas’s eyes, immediately making Karen recall many terrifying memories. She couldn’t help shuddering.

Only then did she remember that her son-in-law was no longer the weak and incompetent son-in-law he used to be. Instead, he really held the power that could kill her at any time.

At the thought of this, Karen didn’t dare to speak again.

Although she really wanted to immediately kick out Maddy, who said that she could cure William, so that he would never regain consciousness again. But she was now indeed at a loss for what to do, leaving her with no choice but to come up with another solution.

Lucas turned to Maddy and looked at her apologetically. “Maddy, I’m so sorry. Please take a look at my father-in-law’s condition now.”

Maddy nodded and let out a sigh, expelling all the pent up anger within her because of Karen’s malicious remarks. She walked over and gently placed her index and middle fingers on William’s pulse to take it carefully.

Traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture were her forte, and she had already seen the CT scan of William’s brain, as well as the other data that Lucas had shown her. Maddy was now using traditional Chinese medicine as an alternative treatment method.

For a while, the few people in the ward fell silent, not even daring to breathe, for fear of disturbing Maddy from reaching an accurate diagnosis.

Karen also stood in the ward with her head hung low instead of going outside.

When she saw that Maddy was actually using a traditional Chinese medicine method to take William’s pulse, she pursed her lips and subconsciously felt an urge to mock her.

At this moment, Lucas glared at her fiercely with a warning gaze in his eyes.

Karen’s heart skipped a beat, but she finally remained silent.

She knew that Lucas’s patience with her was about to run thin. If she tried to continue to interfere with Maddy’s treatment, there would only be one outcome—she would immediately be driven out by Lucas!

After taking his pulse, Maddy carefully examined William’s eyes, tongue, and other body parts. More than ten minutes later, she finally completed the diagnosis.

She straightened her back and said to Lucas and Cheyenne with a smile on her face, “His condition isn’t too bad. It’s actually a little better than I thought. He’s already showing initial signs of recovery. If I use acupuncture and medicine to stimulate his recovery and condition his body, he’ll probably be able to wake up within five days.”

Cheyenne said gleefully, “Really? That’s great! Thank you so much, Maddy!”

Tears of joy welled up in her eyes.

Lucas heaved a sigh of relief. Hearing that William would be able to come to in a few days was definitely a piece of great news to him.

Only Karen, who was having trouble maintaining her worried expression, was almost on the verge of erupting. Deep down, she yelled with indignation, Ahhhhh! Why? Why is that dog William Carter going to regain conscientiousness? If he wakes up, what on earth am I going to do? Damn Lucas and this damn woman! You all deserve to die!

She clenched her fists with all her might to stop herself from losing control and strangling Maddy to death on the spot. But she didn’t dare to look up, afraid that she could no longer hide the strong resentment in her eyes.

Maddy chuckled, “You’re welcome. You’re Lucas’s wife, and that’s like being my sister. Okay, I’ll go prepare the prescription and some western medicine. I’ll have to see if they’re available in this hospital. I’ll return in the evening and begin his acupuncture treatment.”

She smiled faintly and turned around to walk out of the door.

But Lucas keenly noticed that although Maddy was smiling, she was in low spirits at the moment.

Cheyenne naturally also discovered this, so she said to Lucas guiltily, “Hubby, I… I feel very sorry toward Maddy. She obviously came here to help Dad out of kindness because of you…”

Although the person who had insulted Maddy wasn’t her but her mother, Cheyenne still felt very sorry about it.

Lucas shook his head. “It’s not your fault. Besides, Maddy is not that petty. I will explain it to her properly.

“But the most important thing to do now is to help William regain consciousness sooner. By that time, I’m afraid that the truth that some people have been trying to hide will be unraveled.”

With that, Lucas glanced at Karen, who was at the other side of the ward, and smiled coldly.
