Chapter 259
“Don’t do anything reckless, Mom!” Gresham stopped Yolanda.
“What do you think you’re doing? You’ve always had a soft spot for her!”
“That’s not it. Sh–she’s the miracle doctor!” Gresham turned red with
“Wh–what did you just say?” Yolanda was shocked.
Vera gulped, saying, “Stop joking around, honey.”
anger.
“Yeah, Dad! How is Bonnie the miracle doctor?” Trina would rather believe Santa Claus existed than believe her former sister was the celebrated miracle doctor.
Gresham’s brows furrowed as he said bitterly, “I’m having trouble believing she’s the miracle doctor, too. Believe me. I wish it were a joke, but it’s the truth.”
Everyone fell silent as they looked at Bonnie in shock. Suddenly, Vera shouted, “Hey, she’s about to get in her car!”
Yolanda chased after Bonnie with her cane, yelling, “Don’t leave, Bonnie! Come back!”
Even Vera and Gresham joined in chasing Bonnie.
Meanwhile, Trina felt troubled about the unexpected turn of events, thinking, ‘How did this happen? How can Bonnie be the miracle doctor?‘
Bonnie had just gotten into her car when they pulled her out. She said, “I thought you guys didn’t believe me. Didn’t you want to chase me out with a broom?”
Gresham grimaced. “Why didn’t you say anything earlier?”
Bonnie had waited until the Shepards disowned her before telling them she was the miracle doctor. The family wondered if she did that just to humiliate them.
Gresham’s question made Bonnie chuckle. Even so, she was unsure if she was laughing at herself or Gresham. She said, “Really? I recall telling you I had medical knowledge when someone here fractured their bone a long time ago. I offered to treat her, but what did you tell me?
“You accused me of lying and called me a troublemaker. You even grounded me and told me to reflect on my misbehavior. Also, Harold got sick a few years ago, and his health has been deteriorating since then.

“I told you I could help him, but you shamed me. Don’t say I never told you that I had medical knowledge. You just never listened.”
Gresham and Vera grew grim as Bonnie spoke. Indeed, they recalled everything she said. Bonnie was right. The family had criticized and distrusted her.
‘Are we guilty of distrusting her? Of course not. It’s no one’s fault. No would believe that such a young lady could possess such medical knowledge!‘
“I’ve had enough of this shit!” Yolanda glared at Bonnie and commanded, “If you’re the miracle doctor, do your job and start treating Harold now!”
Bonnie could not bear the family’s atrocious behavior. She said, “Here’s the thing, Yolanda. I’m no longer a family member, and sure as hell ain’t your granddaughter. Since I’m the heralded miracle doctor, every wealthy family in Pyralis competes for my
services.
“Are you sure you want to talk to me in that tone? You were the ones who chased me out just now. Do you think I want to treat anyone in your family? Keep dreaming!”
“You little shit!” Yolanda was at a loss and could not think of how to retort. Finally, she roared at Gresham and Vera, “Your daughter’s being a nasty brat!”
The couple was furious. One of them said, “Bonnie’s no longer our daughter!”
Even Yolanda was outraged, thinking, ‘We wouldn’t have needed to spend three million dollars if they hadn’t insisted on disowning Bonnie. Trina wouldn’t have needed to beg everyone at the auction, either.”
The older woman’s eyes were full of hatred as she glared at Bonnie.
