Faye heard what Taylor said but didn't think much about it.She knew he was the genius doctor the moment she saw him.Still, he was slightly inferior to her. She was a natural in medicine.Faye approached Frederic. First, she checked his mouth and nose. Then, she flipped his eyelids. Next, she checked his pulse.Faye had mastered the skills of examining a patient and assessing for relevant symptoms.She didn't need the help of equipment, yet she could rapidly detect the cause of a patient's condition.If a patient's illness wasn't too complicated, she could usually diagnose him instantly.She couldn't help but frown the moment she touched Frederic's wrist.Before this, all she knew was that Frederic had fainted abruptly in a family meeting a year ago. He had never awakened since after being sent to the hospital.But his condition wasn't that severe then. An outstanding doctor like Taylor could help stabilize his health condition.The problem was that not even Taylor could cur
Nearly a dozen people squeezed themselves into Frederic's room.Although the room was spacious, the atmosphere grew stifling as the Shaws entered.Faye watched as they eyed her as though she was a monster. She smiled but remained silent.On the other hand, Cedric's face fell as he stood before Faye. "We'll know who's the joke here when the truth is revealed."Solomon's eldest son, Zachary Shaw, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. He spoke righteously. "Uncle Cedric, I won't suspect her credibility because you vouch for her. "We've been trying to find a doctor to cure Grandpa. Only you insisted on seeking Dr. Connor. By right, we should believe you and this young doctor here."But," he paused, "we've only heard about such methods on TV, and there's no saying if it really exists."Even if it does, Grandpa has never wronged anyone who uses such sinister stuff. "The Shaw family has always been upright. Why will they target us?"Solomon smirked. "We won't have blamed you if you c
"Wh-What nonsense are you saying?" Beatrice came to her senses after several minutes. Infuriated, she darted forward to hit Faye."I advise you to think twice about the consequences of your words. How dare you insult us? "We're from the Shaw family!" Beatrice screamed in agitation. She went red with anger.Belle's face also darkened. "Watch who you're cursing. You're only a so-called miracle doctor Cedric found. "Don't assume we'll let you say such nonsense just because of that."Solomon looked at Cedric. "Ced, are you sure you'll just let this woman say whatever she likes?""How amazing. This miracle doctor here doesn't need to run an examination. "All she does is take a look, and she can tell what illnesses someone has." Zachary adjusted his glasses. He smiled playfully. "Do you want to try and guess what's wrong with me?"Zachary was confident he was healthy. There was nothing wrong with him that Faye could reveal.After all, he had just checked his medical report tw
In the car, Faye narrowed her eyes and said, "Solomon has to take care of Mr. Shaw Senior personally. Figure out a way so he does it for these few days."She leaned back into her seat."Hm?" Cedric couldn't catch her meaning.Faye grinned. "Just do as I say."What else could Cedric say? He could only nod. "Okay."But Faye wasn't done with him. "The sixth son of the Shaw family in Jorn City, huh? "How many other identities do you have that I don't know about, Mr. Shaw?"Cedric knew she wouldn't let this slide.He smiled resignedly. "I'll tell you everything when I can, okay?""Whatever," Faye answered nonchalantly.Cedric grew inexplicably nervous. "It's not that I'm unwilling to tell you. Things are complicated. I've barely made sense of it myself."Faye gave him an "okay" gesture. Then, she closed her eyes and rested.She hated family dramas, and she just watched an entire series of them on this trip. It felt more exhausting to her than running for two miles straight. S
Faye didn't return to the villa that night. She stayed the night at the mountain lodge.The mountain lodge acted like an entrance to Yale Pharmacy.Typically, no one would've guessed that Yale Pharmacy was located in a corner of the backyard.Many had searched for the pharmacy but could only find the lodge. They would then leave without succeeding.To treat her own illness, Faye had once come to the pharmacy with Benjamin. She stayed for some time. She didn't want to spend her entire day in the pharmacy. So, she set up a herbs storage cum resting area in the lodge for herself. She would stay there and research drugs when she was free.Today was no exception.She purposely provoked the Shaws yesterday so Solomon would throw her out in a fit of rage. Teaching them a lesson wasn't her sole purpose. More importantly, she had insufficient herbs to treat Frederic.She could ask the Shaw family to get the herbs ready. But that was only feasible if she only charged them two mill
Faye had been busy the entire night. She didn't sleep at all.She felt like her soul and body were two different entities as she drove back to the villa.When she finally reached her destination, she simply parked her car and went in. At that moment, she caught a whiff of something delicious.Faye ran toward the kitchen and saw Cedric in an apron, busy preparing food. He was also looking at her. Faye smiled with satisfaction. "What a feast for the eyes …"Faye wasn't looking at the dishes Cedric prepared. In fact, she was looking at Cedric as a playful smile formed on her lips.Cedric didn't expect her to tease him. He looked at her, amused. "Did you just return from the desert? You want to eat everything you see, huh?"Faye noticed how dirty and messy she was. She cleared her throat uneasily. "I can't satisfy my hunger by eating you. I'm only interested in the feast you've prepared."Then, she realized she had let slip what she was thinking.Cedric didn't specify what he mea
Reluctant as he was, Solomon bit the bullet and cut his wrist. He filled a bowl with blood.Faye calmly helped him stop the bleeding and applied medication to his wound. She smiled. "Don't worry, Mr. Solomon. Your wound will recover within three days after using my medication. It won't leave a scar."Then, she smiled secretively at the others. "It can also remove old scars. Anyone who needs it can buy some from me. "I'm in a good mood today. I'll offer everyone from the Shaw family a lower rate."Beatrice asked timidly, "And how much is that?"This woman charged them a billion dollars just to treat Frederic. They wouldn't assume her medication was cheap just because it was an offer."Uh, 5000 dollars per packet." Faye wanted to set the price at 1000 dollars. But then, these were multimillionaires before her. They would look down on her product if she set the price too low.To her surprise, everyone seemed relieved when she stated the price. They thought that it would be a g
Faye returned to the villa. After bathing, she fell into a deep sleep.Two days had passed when she woke up.The Shaw family was in an uproar again. They kept bothering Cedric and asked him to contact Faye.Cedric checked on Faye in her room twice. Seeing how soundly she was sleeping, he couldn't bring himself to disturb her for the sake of those unimportant people.Faye had left them instructions before she slept.They had to give Frederic his medicine consistently these two days. It was to expel the residual toxins in his body because the parasite had inhabited him for too long.Frederic might vomit blood and have other reactions these two days. But those were typical, and they had nothing to worry about.He would have to take a medicinal bath once every two days. She even left them the prescription.Faye covered everything that might happen to Frederic.And she did that so that no one would disturb her for the next two days.In other words, nothing mattered as long as Fred
Official Hart was well aware that if he indeed went to Pembrook, he couldn't successfully assume the role of the leader without the support of the security team. It wasn't that he underestimated himself, but Pembrook was a peculiar city. Ordinary officials who went there could only be puppets. Even those who thought they had some capabilities, like the previous mayor who attempted to overthrow the security team, faced a tremendously tragic fate. His attempt to gain full control over Pembrook doomed his political career and might even cost him his life. Official Hart didn't want to be a puppet, and he certainly didn't want to lose his life. Going to Pembrook was about enhancing his qualifications to open up more opportunities. In simpler terms, it was about building his portfolio.To go to Pembrook, he must have a good relationship with the security team. Now that the captain of the Pembrook Security team had actively approached him, he had nothing to lose. However, Official
Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.
Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor. It wasn't until the doctor arrived that Flora found out Clark didn't even
Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around. Lizzie remained patie
"Damn it! Damn it! It has to be Faye! This has to be her doing. Damn it!" Tracy pushed everything on the table to the ground. Her face twisted viciously with anger. Over the past few days, scandals about her have circulated on the internet. Even information about her age when she started sleeping around and the number of men she slept with for money was released. Evidence of her plotting to steal Anthon away and bring down the Lynch family was released as well. On top of that, there was also information about her working with her mother to chase Flora out and claim Brown Corporation as their own. Every misdeed Tracy had ever committed was exposed before the public's eyes. She became the target of all condemnation. There would be different people gathering near their apartment. As soon as they stepped out of the apartment, they would get beaten. The horrible things that Clint and Lizzie did were later released onto the internet as well. The family of three couldn't even get
Monica suffered from severe depression ever since she married Ethan. She was a strong-willed woman who refused to show any weakness. Even when she was hurt, she would suffer alone and kept giving, not asking for anything in return. Ethan married her but didn't love her. On top of that, he picked on her at every turn and gave her the cold shoulder. She began to get depressed a year after marrying him. With her friend's help, she started treatment. However, the treatment process was painful. Throughout the three years she was married to Ethan, she endured his humiliation without rest, which made recovering much harder. One day, she went to the beach and came close to getting washed away. It was Brody who saved her. Brody went there to look for inspiration for his paintings. When he saw Monica, he was sitting afar and drawing. This painting won Brody countless awards. Just as he was about to leave, there was a high tide, and Monica came close to getting washed away.
Ethan sent the photos and returned to his apartment to wait while drinking. Due to the interview that took place at noon, Ethan's divorce stirred up a storm on Facebook. At the moment, he didn't need to pay to obtain attention. After Tracy declared her innocence, everyone considered Ethan a jerk who heartlessly searched for an excuse to divorce Monica. Ethan waited an hour before releasing the photos. Everyone switched from cursing at him to cursing at him and Tracy. This was not what he expected. He gritted his teeth. Just as he contemplated how to deal with this, he received a bunch of photos. Apart from the intimate photos between him and Tracy, there were ones of Tracy with other men as well. There was even proof that Tracy got an abortion when she was still a teenager. Going through everything, he finally realized how wrong he had been. He misjudged Tracy and recklessly divorced Monica. He didn't love Monica and resented her for forcing him to marry her. Howeve
"You look alright. Who would have thought you are the kind of man who would cheat on your wife?" Eleanor didn't mince her words and immediately kept her distance. Mandy smiled. "Tracy, look at what you've done to your boyfriend.""She stole Faye's boyfriend and sent Anthon's family to prison. Now, she's here destroying Mr. Garcia's family. He lost everything because of her. How interesting," Clark chimed in. He still remembered how Tracy insulted him when he tried to ask Ethan for money. He held a grudge. Tracy's expression darkened. She wanted to run, but the reporters had directed their microphones at her. "Miss, why did you choose to be a homewrecker?""Did you know that Mr. Garcia got a divorce because of you?""Do you know how he got to where he is now? It's because of the alliance he formed with the Dalding family through marriage. Without the Dalding family's help, he may have nothing. Will you still love him even if that's the case?"These questions were confrontati
Faye learned about the Brown family being taken to the police station the following morning. Just as she got up, she received a call from the police station informing her that her relatives had been detained due to a brawl. She was urged to head over to mediate the fight. Faye smiled. "I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast. She hugged him from behind and said with a smile, "Guess what interesting scene I witnessed last night?"Cedric turned his head to study the triumphant look on her face. He smiled. "Why don't you tell me?""Ethan and Tracy were caught in bed together. Didn't you know?""I knew." He pinched her face. "I was the one who asked Monica to go over."Faye rolled her eyes and pouted, losing her interest in the matter. "Why are you asking me if you already knew everything?""You saw it with your own eyes, and I'm just guessing. I prefer to hear it from
