    Chapter 3228 He Won''t Be Able To Do Those Bad Things Anymore


    "Madam Mallory, what''s the matter?" Luca was not particrly polite to her.


    If Karen were not Percy''s mother or if Luke were not friends with Percy, she would not havee to see her.


    Although Luke had said she could do what she wanted and did not need to worry about him or T Corporation, there were some interpersonal rtionships that she felt should not be strained too much.


    After all, even though Luke now said it was fine and Percy''s rtionship with Karen was not great, what if...


    What if in the future, Karen epted Nina and her rtionship with Percy returned to normal?


    If she embarrassed herself now, it might affect Luke and Percy''s friendship.


    That was why she decided toe see Karen.


    "Dr. Graw.." Karen greeted her, then paused for a moment, not saying anything else.


    Luca sat across from her and nced at the time with a cold expression on her face. "I have another meeting soon. If you have something to say, please do. My research tasks are quite heavy."


    Even though she hade to meet Karen, her tone was not friendly.


    Karen frowned, feeling displeased. However, after some thought, she swallowed her pride and said, "You know what I want to talk about. Pierre started formal physical therapy a couple of days ago, but traditional dry needling hasn''t been very effective. So, I still hope you''ll be able to help.."


    Luca secretly let out a sigh. It was indeed about Pierre.Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Parents cared for their children, after all. Even though Karen had done some despicable things, everything she was doing now was for Pierre''s good.


    As a mother, she could empathize.


    However, what Percy did to her and to Nina was truly despicable.


    He kidnapped and hit people!


    Was it not a good thing now that his leg was injured? He would not be able to do those bad things anymore.


    After the things she experienced on the Ind of Despair, Luca no longer had a saintly heart. She even felt that Pierre''s current punishment was too lenient.


    "I can''t help," Luca refused directly.


    "Dr. Craw, my family needs your help now. If you help us, we won''t mistreat you. Even if you don''tck money, you can consider Luke''s future. If he needs anything in the future, our family can also help!" Karen brought up the Mallory family.


    Luca frowned. Honestly, her offer was tempting.


    The Mallory farmily would lend a hand if Luke ever needed help.


    However, as long as Luke did not fall out with Percy, the Mallory family would not help Luke out even if they owed her a favor.


    Luca thought the offer was good, but it was not practical.


    "Maybe I didn''t make myself clearly.." Luca decided to put an end to this. "I have treated someone before, but his situation was different. He suffered damage to his brain nerves, so I used dry needling to stimte his brain nerves and hence restore his normal bodily functions. That''s my specialty in dry needling. Your son''s situation is different."


    "How is it different? Dr. Park said his leg nerves were damaged." Karen was getting worked up.


    "This type of leg nerve damage refers to damage to the muscle nerves. For example, when you squeeze someone, a normal person would feel pain, but someone with muscle nerve damage might feel less pain. This can gradually recover to normal," Luca exined to her.


    "He has difficulty standing up now, or perhaps he might walk strangely in the future. This isn''t directly rted to the nervous system. Actually, it''s because his leg was fractured for too long back then, missing the optimal treatment window and resulting in bone damage that''s affecting his leg''s function."


    Luca exined regardless of whether Karen understood. She had already made her point clear.


    There was no way she could heal Pierre''s leg.


    Karen''s face tumed pale. "Are you serious?"


    "Yes." Luca nodded. Even though she was lying, her expression remained impassive.


    Karen still refused to believe it. "If it''s useless, why did the hospital perform dry needling on him?"


    "It''s just one way to restore his muscle nerves," answered Luca. "Every type of physical therapy prescribed by doctors has its rationale and contributes to recovery. However, dry needling''s effectiveness is limited and can''t make Mr. Pierre stand up like a normal person." Karen felt hopeless. She leaned back on the couch, murmuring softly, "That''s impossible! You''re lying to me."


    Luca thought to herself that she was indeed lying to Karen.


    The dry needling technique Shanks taught her had slight differences from traditional dry needling treatment. The major difference was her ability to stimte bone healing and development through dry needling at different points.


    If she prepared a specific medicine solution for Pierre and used it during dry needling, it would greatly aid bone healing.


    Pierre had difficulty standing up now, or maybe he would limp when walking. It was because


    Amur''s kick had been forceful, causing many bone fractures. With the time that had passed, he had missed the best treatment opportunity, so the healing of his bones was hindered.


    Of course, metal could rece some sections of bone.


    However, it had its drawbacks. For instance, it could adhere to flesh and cause inmmation over time, necessitating surgery. That would be quite damaging for the patient.


    Furthermore, metal''s flexibility would never match that of a human joint, meaning even after the wound healed, there could still be a limp.


    Luca reckoned that Pierre''s requirement was to walk without limping, so they tried to retain as much bone as possible for him during the surgery.


    In Johann''s words, he did his best to piece together every bone fragment.


    However, some fragments were too small and difficult to reconstruct.


    Luca stood up expressionlessly. "Madam Mallory, I truly cannot be of help regarding Mr. Pierre''s situation. I have an important meeting upstairs. I''ll take my leave now."


    Then, she walked out.


    Karen watched her leave from behind, unable to regain herposure for a long time.


    Everyone told her that all treatments were to help Pierre''s leg get better.


    Yet, Luca had just told her that dry needling could not help Pierre stand and walk normally.


    She could not ept it for the moment.


    After entering the elevator, Luca texted Luke about today''s events.


    Shortly after, Luke called her.


    "She didn''t harm you, did she?" Luke''s tone was filled with concern.


    "No, don''t worry. She wouldn''t dare cause trouble at Watson, and I''m not someone she can


    push around," Luca reassured him.


    Luke was still worried about her situation.


    "Percy''s mother is a very erratic woman. You need to be careful." He had known Karen for a


    long time.


    When nothing was wrong, she was the elegant and noble Madam Mallory. However, once something drove her mad, she became a frantic woman.
