Chapter 236
Kelvin noticed Raul’s hesitation and said, “I get it, Raul. Ms. Florà may be young, but she’s got mad skills. She saved my dad at that dinner party and blew everyone’s mind. We totally trust her. Even if she can’t pull off a miracle, the Bryant family will always be grateful
to her.”
With things laid out like this, Raul felt it would be ru go, he’d back her up no matter what.
“Dad, let me go with Kelvin and check it out,” Flora said.
“Alright then,” Raul replied.
to refuse. He looked at Flora, trying to gauge her feelings. If she didn’t want to
Since Flora agreed, Raul kept his worries to himself but still asked Henrik to tag along. Henrik’s presence would give Raul some peace
of mind.
Half an hour later, Flora and Henrik arrived at the Bryant family’s estate.
Before they even stepped inside, Flora heard familiar cries of pain. She frowned. It couldn’t be. But as she walked in and saw Luna and Jenny, her lips twitched.
It really was them.
“Sorry to trouble you again,” Grandpa Josiah said, standing up and walking over to Flora, looking a bit embarrassed. “We have two patients here, and we’d appreciate it if you could take a look.”
“Dad, you’re seriously letting this young girl treat Jenny and Luna?” Jordan exclaimed, eyes wide with disbelief.
“She’s just a kid. What can she possibly know?” he continued, doubt clear in his voice. Not everyone was a prodigy like Selene, achieving so much in medicine at such a young age.
“She hasn’t even agreed yet. Why are you getting so worked up?” Grandpa Josiah snapped, irritated.
Jordan shrunk back, too afraid to say more, though his face still showed his displeasure. His aversion to Flora was almost tangible, not just because she was young and seemed inexperienced, but because she reminded him of Seraphine.
“Grandpa Josiah, I can’t help,” Flora said firmly.
Grandpa Josiah thought she was upset because she felt disrespected. “You haven’t even looked yet. How can you say you can’t do anything? Just take a look. It’s okay if it doesn’t work out,” he pleaded.
Selene, watching the scene, felt a pang of jealousy. Any small amount of goodwill she had felt towards Flora had completely vanished. She was used to being the star, and she couldn’t stand someone else stealing her thunder.
Flora genuinely didn’t want to treat them, but Grandpa Josiah was a decent guy, and he had asked so earnestly that she couldn’t refuse. Without another word, she walked over to Jenny and took her hand, a bit roughly.
Jenny winced and cried out, “Ouch, ouch, be gentle, please…”
Selene followed closely, curious about Flora’s methods. But when she saw Flora holding Jenny’s hand and pressing three inches below her armpit, she panicked.
“You can’t do this! Her arm has multiple joint injuries. What you’re doing will completely ruin her arm!” Selene shouted.
Hearing this, Jenny, terrified, yanked her hand back, enduring the pain. “Are you trying to kill me?” Jenny exclaimed.
Flora turned to Selene, her eyes narrowing. “If you know so much, why don’t you treat her yourself?”
Selene was momentarily speechless. Turning to Grandpa Josiah, she said, “Grandpa Josiah, I can’t guarantee I can heal her hand, but if Flora keeps going like this, your granddaughter’s hand will be ruined for sure!”
Grandpa Josiah hesitated, unsure of what to do.
Kelvin stepped in, “If everyone doubts my sister’s skills, then there’s no point in us staying here. We’re leaving.”
