“Stop talking about this,” Hank scolded his sister. Chelsea pouted. Luke had to warn his daughter, “Don’t do anything stupid, Chelsea. I won’t let you off the hook if you cause trouble there.”Old habits died hard for his daughter. Her greed revealed itself again after her gratitude toward Liberty for rescuing Lucas at the zoo had dissipated. He was worried she would wreck the restaurant opening. Chelsea quickly said, “I dare not do anything, Dad. I don’t have a death wish. Look at Liberty’s status now. My own store will be destroyed if I sabotage hers. I’m not that silly.“I’m just envious. After all, we did contribute minorly to Liberty’s current success. If it weren’t for us, she wouldn’t have been able to be motivated and establish a career like this.”Chelsea’s shamelessness was truly off the charts. After listening to her, even her parents and brother felt she was shameless for flattering herself. “Hank, divorce that evil woman as soon as possible and get Liberty bac
“Have some water, Dr. Carden.”Lilian accepted the drink. “Thank you, Rosella.”“I should be the one thanking you. My son had you come over just a month after you gave birth. I’m so embarrassed by that. I’ve already scolded Callum.”Lilian gulped down half the glass of water. She was thirsty.“It’s okay. I almost died of boredom while recuperating anyway. I’ve wanted to leave my home for some time, but my husband doesn’t allow it. He insisted that I have ample home rest to recover. I’m a doctor. I’m more knowledgeable than him on how to regain my good health after giving birth.“Mr. Callum cares deeply for his fiancée. He persistently invited me over to treat her eyes despite needing to bear my husband’s disdain. I was touched by his deep love and I’m more than happy to make this trip for Ms. Newman.“I hope I can treat her eyes and let her have a good look at her fiancé’s face.”Camryn was engaged to Callum, yet she did not know what he looked like. Lilian found it a pity.
“Your health and spirits are as good as ever, Grandma May,” Lilian complimented,She had assessed the old lady’s health at FC Manor previously. Grandma May was as fit as a fiddle and could definitely live for another tens of years. Lilian’s mentor, the genius doctor, would live a long life too. He was especially healthy because he maintained his health through natural remedies consisting of precious medicinal plants. He also said he would try to live until he was 120 years old because he had more things to worry about. He wanted to see Oliver have a family of his own. Oliver was still a baby though. Grandma May held Lilian’s hand with a smile. “Lilian, does your mentor have any pills that can promote longevity? Can you give some to me? I want to be healthier and live longer. It’s best if I can live until the age of 120. It isn’t rare for someone to live past 100 years old now anyway.“I don’t know when I’ll be able to have a great-granddaughter. I need to hold her in my arms.
Camryn had been blind for many years. During those years, she had followed Evelyn to seek treatment at various places. They even turned to religion to pray for a cure before. Nevertheless, every attempt came to a dead end. They had failed so many times that Camryn no longer dared to harbor hope. She knew Dr. Carden was everyone’s last shot at curing her eyes.Camryn could handle being disappointed alone if the outcome was undesirable. She was used to it anyway. However, it seemed like everyone would have to experience that disappointment with her. “Don’t be scared.”Callum threw his arms open and hugged Camryn tightly. After releasing her, he softly kissed her forehead. “Don’t worry. I’m here with you.”Camryn raised her head toward Callum and tried to look at his face. However, her vision was still a blur. She could not see him clearly. His words, hug, and kiss brought a river of warmth to her heart. Suddenly, she did not feel nervous anymore. She nodded lightly. Call
“I haven’t met Dr. Carden. I happened to be on a business trip when she came. Callum had just brought me back. We’re at his house and about to meet Dr. Carden soon.”Trenton was still worried about her and this made Camryn happy. “No matter the result, don’t give up. If Dr. Carden can’t do anything, we can look for a better doctor,” Trenton reassured her.Everyone knew that Camryn would not be able to regain her sight if even Dr. Carden could not treat her eyes. Dr. Carden was the miracle healer’s disciple and he was legendary because his skills were undoubtedly the best. After a moment of silence, Camryn consoled her brother in return, “I won’t be sad, Trenton. I can accept any result. I’ve gotten used to living in darkness after so many years. It’s just a pity that Callum has to marry me, a blind person, despite being such an outstanding person himself.”“Camryn.”Callum said, “I don’t feel aggrieved at all. Since the day I fell in love with you, I’ve decided to marry you a
Dr. Carden’s name was well-known. Those who have not seen her before thought a doctor skilled in both medicine and toxicology with a good reputation would be middle-aged. “Dr. Carden, this is my fiancée, Camryn Newman,” Callum introduced. Lilian knew right away that Camryn was the patient when she saw Callum assisting an unfamiliar woman walking in. “Ms. Newman.”Lilian knew Camryn relied on her hearing to determine a person’s location. Therefore, she greeted Camryn. Camryn had been facing the stairs after she entered the house. She turned to Lilian’s direction upon hearing her voice. A smile appeared on her beautiful face. “Nice to meet you, Dr. Carden.”“Come here and sit, Ms. Newman. I’ll conduct a basic examination.”Lilian did not hesitate to ask Callum to help Camryn walk over and sit beside her. She would be conducting some simple checkups on Camryn. Callum quickly aided Camryn to walk over. Even Grandma May, who had been sitting beside Lilian, made way for Camr
Lilian said with a smile, “Don’t worry. It’s not untreatable. Since it’s coming from me, you know I don’t joke around.” She patted the back of Camryn’s hand. “Take it easy. The treatment will be no more than three months. If you can’t see clearly after three months, I’ll get my mentor to treat you, but my mentor can’t beat me when it comes to getting an antidote for poisons. Lilian had a vast knowledge of poisonous plants from growing them, far surpassing that of her mentor. That was how she earned her reputation in the medical and poison field. Heck, she would be called a miracle healer in ancient times. Everybody was overjoyed by the news. They knew there was hope for Camryn to see again with Dr. Carden working on her case. “Thank you, Dr. Carden.” Feeling relieved, Camryn took Lilian’s hands and thanked her profusely. Lilian uttered with a grin, “Don’t mention it. You should thank your Aunt Evelyn, her husband, and your fiancé. You are where you are today because o
Abel left the world in tears. Evelyn had no idea that Cain and Paige had something to do with Abel’s death… These people were cruel. Evelyn believed Cain and Paige deserved to be locked up and faced heavy penalties. They deserved no sympathy.For the things they did to Abel and her niece, Evelyn believed they should get a death sentence. Carrie would soon leave prison. However, so what if she could escape jail time? Without her parents to rely on, Carrie could be arrogant all she wanted, but she would not amount to anything when Camryn regained her eyesight. Evelyn’s mind wandered to her older sisters. They were vicious for attempting to impersonate Callum to deceive Camryn. Callum’s revenge pushed them over the edge, and now they were facing bankruptcy. Served them right! Overwhelmed with emotions, Evelyn and Camryn embraced each other and wailed out loud. Nobody stopped them to allow them to vent the pain and suffering within. Lilian opened her medical kit which
