Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 252

“It was Yvette who did the acupuncture. I told her not to be reckless, but she wouldn’t listen to me!” Looking at Gideon’s frown, Yasmin was overjoyed.

Yvette must have worsened Yara’s condition!

She asked hurriedly, “Dr. Bingley, is Aunt Yara’s condition even more serious now?”

“Who said the patient’s condition is more serious?” Gideon replied solemnly. “It’s fortunate you let her perform acupuncture on the patient. Otherwise, the patient would have been beyond saving!”

However, Jacob remained calm. His gaze at Yvette was even more tender. He was impressed with his sister’s ability.

Meanwhile, Yasmin was seething with hatred.

“So that woman knew acupuncture!” she thought, her gaze venomous.

“You were the one who did the treatment?” Gideon turned to Yvette, his tone unable to conceal his admiration. “Young lady, to have mastered this acupuncture technique at your age is truly impressive! Would you be interested in becoming my apprentice?”

Gideon was the most skilled physician in Jubilife City, second only to the Miracle Healer. Being his apprentice was an opportunity many sought but few obtained.

Even so, Yvette refused bluntly, “Thank you, but I am not interested.”

“What did you say?” Gideon doubted he had heard correctly. He had not known anyone who would refuse to be his apprentice.

Yvette looked up at him, her face expressionless, repeating, “No, not interested.”

Gideon finally looked clearly at her face, his pupils dilating slightly. He wondered why Yvette seemed so familiar to him. And her voice… It sounded a bit like that venerable Miracle Healer.

“No, that’s impossible!” he dismissed the thought.

If the Miracle Healer had come to Jubilife City, Gideon would have already received the news. The Miracle Healer couldn’t possibly be her since he hadn’t heard about it.

Gideon shook his head. “I must be getting old,” he thought.

“Dr. Bingley, when will my wife wake up from her coma?” Irwin asked anxiously, looking at the unconscious Yara.

“She fainted and vomited blood due to a clashing reaction to the medicines she took. Taking these two medicines together is fatal.” Gideon shook his head. “There’s no hope. She’ll never recover to her normal self. Consider yourself lucky that she’s alive.”

“How could this happen…” Irwin was devastated by the news. “Dr. Bingley, please try again to cure my wife. I’m willing to spend my entire fortune if needed!”

Gideon sighed, still shaking his head. “Mr. Murray, there’s truly nothing I can do.”

“Who says there’s no hope?”

Before Gideon could say more, he was interrupted by a cold and beautiful voice. It was Yvette.

“You can’t save her, but I can,”

Yvette’s face was expressionless, yet she radiated an overwhelming presence.

“Move aside.”

Gideon instinctively obeyed, stepping aside for her. It took him a moment to realize that he had been commanded by this young girl!

He was always the one being revered. Except for the venerable Miracle Healer, no one dared treat him this way.

“This young lady was truly bold and daring!” he thought.
