The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 14 Savior
"That's right, Mr. Kent. They asked for that imposter by name and wanted to know where she is," said Alfred. Marshall thought about the person with the scooter. He said annoyedly, "No wonder she didn't want the money. She wants more. She wants to leech off our family.""They are so shameless! I'll send them off right away. I have ways to deal with leeches like these people," Alfred said viciously. Marshall replied, "Don't make too much of a scene. Our family has an image to maintain.""Don't worry, sir. I understand."Marshall hung up and went back to socializing with others. Lily was about to be accepted as Salome's pupil. With how influential the Gunthers were in the medical world, they were sure to be able to get in contact with the Yorks.This would be a great help for Marshall's career. It was a very crucial time for him. He didn't have the time to deal with Aria's destitute relatives. The notion itself was laughable. Not going home and meeting with Frank, who had g

Poe was just passing by the place when he saw the free clinic and decided to try his luck. He didn't expect to be healed. When he found out that Aria wouldn't take a dime from him, he had the urge to get on his knees and thank her.Aria stopped him and wiped his hands. "Sir, your condition isn't that serious. It was just a simple adjustment. Most traditional medicine practitioners would handle it like that.""A simple adjustment? But Dr. Gunther said I needed surgery. The surgery was too expensive. It was 100,000 dollars!"100,000 dollars? People around him frowned when they heard that. That was a catastrophic amount of money for the common folk. "Who is this Dr. Gunther? A bandit?" Maria was the first to voice her discontent. A lot of the residents in the Elmer district were government officials. They felt for the people. The other residents were angry as well. They said to Joel, "Joel, you need to look into this."Joel wiped the sweat off his forehead. "I… I'll try my best.

If Dr. Whiz was no longer working with the Gunther family, who would she choose to provide medical services in Southbury?The other prominent families in Southbury went to work immediately and started sending private messages to Aria. Malcolm's message stood out the most. "You've made a wise decision, boss. It's finally the Lowe family's time in the sun!"Aria didn't reply to any of the messages. She turned off her phone after she sent out the announcement and went back to operating her free clinic. No one would think that a young lady providing treatment to people at a community square would be the renowned Dr. Whiz.…Meanwhile, Dr. Salome Gunther whom Maria and the others were talking about, was sitting in Caesar Hotel and preparing to accept a new pupil.Although she met with an annoying brat that day, the Kents were very accommodating and eased some of her anger. At the dinner table, Karen raised her glass. "Lily, quick! Thank your mentor."Lily raised her glass, a gen

Salome reined in her anger. She was too smart to reveal that the Gunther family was on its last legs in public.The most important thing she had to do at the moment was to keep everyone else from suspecting anything. "You're right. Everyone has bore witness to our achievements in the medical world in the past few years. It's just a little annoying to receive such unfortunate news on such a happy occasion."Marshall was a businessman with a sharp nose. He sensed that something was off. Karen was just afraid that Salome would turn Lily away. So, she was still singing her praises. "That's for sure! You've even won awards abroad. Surely, no one would dare to challenge you in Farshya!"Salome didn't mention the fact that the targeted drug analysis that won the award was provided by the Panacea Society.She sighed and said, "There's no need to brag about that, Karen. We're not perfect, after all, like the treatment for Mr. York. We were short of one herb—the Whisperwind Herb. If we h
Last Updated : 2024-04-12The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 18 Finding Ms. Carver
"Ms. Carver! Ms. Carver! I've finally found you!"Frank spoke with a thick Janovian accent. He was so excited that his pot belly was trembling.Aria glanced at him. He was wearing a nice suit. He wasn't tall, but he looked like a successful businessman. She wasn't acquainted with someone like that. She picked up her bag and said calmly, "You've got the wrong person.""Wrong person…" Frank echoed her words in disappointment. He observed Aria's beauty and elegance, instinctively believing she might be the "Ms. Carver" he had been seeking.Thinking back to what he did, he realized that his actions had bordered on desperation. The intel provided by the people in Uludon didn't mention that "Ms. Carver" was a medical practitioner. Aria was a very skilled doctor. If she was indeed the "Ms. Carver" he was looking for, the Kents would at least have mentioned her medical prowess. He just thought she resembled the "Ms. Carver" he was looking for from behind. So, he made a mistake. Sin

Frank wasn't trying to put down Aria.Nevertheless, the Carvers kept a low profile. Even when the sons of the family ventured forth to establish their own careers, they never told anyone they belonged to the prominent Carver family.Warren had made the trip to Southbury to bring the Carver family's youngest daughter back home, so he didn't want to make a big deal out of it.Frank had gotten a huge fright just now when he thought he had inadvertently exposed Warren's identity.Plenty of elite families in Southbury would kill to establish a connection with the Carvers. If they found out Warren was here, he wouldn't be able to receive treatment in peace.Thus, Frank could not be the one who exposed Warren's identity and situation.Aria noticed Frank's reaction, but she didn't say anything. After all, doctors were obligated to keep their patient's information confidential.No matter who Warren was, he was merely a patient to Aria.That being said, she wondered why the Carvers would

"And you are?" Stuart asked as he turned to look at Aria. He saw a young woman with long black hair standing before him. She seemed to be sucking on a candy.Though she looked rather young, she was blindingly beautiful. There was a hint of elegance peeking through her aloof demeanor. She had a mole near the corner of her eye. For some reason, her dark eyes exuded a compelling air when she looked at others.Frank quickly said, "Stuart, I brought her here. She's the genius—""How ridiculous!" Salome screeched sharply, cutting Frank off."You again, you greedy young woman." Salome, who had finally arrived, glanced at Aria, her expression darkening. "Are you here to trick patients at the hospital because you couldn't get any money just now?"Then, Salome shouted, "Who brought her in here? Shouldn't you have checked her background first?"Upon hearing Salome's voice, Bryan ran over in a hurry. "This is all a misunderstanding, Dr. Gunther. These people here came with the patient. Right
Last Updated : 2024-04-12The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 21 She Is Qualified
"You're actually familiar with medicine?" Bryan exclaimed in shock.Scoffing, Salome remarked, "Are you even thinking straight, Dr. Lowe? How can a young woman like her know anything about medicine? I bet she overheard one of the nurses describing the patient's symptoms.""This young woman just arrived, Dr. Gunther. None of us had a chance to speak to her yet," one of the nurses chimed in.Salome eyed the nurse who spoke and said, "So what? How old is she? She probably hasn't even graduated yet. Does she have a license? How can she diagnose patients without one?"A loud smack rang out as Aria swiftly slammed her medical license down on the chair. To everyone's amazement, she was even licensed as an attending physician! Everyone who practiced medicine knew how hard it was to become an attending physician.No one dared to say Aria wasn't qualified anymore. It was almost as if Aria had slapped Salome in the face.The doctors and nurses were still in disbelief as they muttered among

The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1158 Leon and the Emperor Coins
Warren's eyes reddened as he gazed at Fergus, the grandson he had once hoped to raise personally. In that moment, he felt his life had been worthwhile. As one grew older, they came to understand a fundamental truth—if their descendants could grasp their thoughts, rather than dismissing the ways of the past as irrelevant, it was something to celebrate. Warren could now pass on everything to his grandchildren, finally feeling worthy within the Carver family.…Meanwhile, Leon furrowed his brows in the second-floor bedroom. "What are they talking about?""It's probably about Ludwiten. They have some business to settle. Why?" Aria had intentionally given Fergus and Warren some time to talk. As for her, she stayed with Leon in his room, playing games and snacking.When she heard his question, she smiled. "Are you interested as well, Leon?""I'm not cut out for business." Leon couldn't sit still and kept pacing back and forth. His silver hair, falling perfectly, made him look like a
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1157 Go to Ludwiten
That night, Warren stood before the memorial hall and spoke to his ancestors."Aria will be returning to Ludwiten tonight. Things will be different this time. There will be many obstacles ahead of her, but we must return eventually. Aria will finish what I couldn't. Please protect her."The Carver family was forced to shift their business from Ludwiten to Janovin at the time. And back then, they believed they could return at any moment. Yet, over 70 years had passed since then.Both Warren and Stephen were sentimental individuals, always hoping to return to Ludwiten. However, circumstances had shifted over the years. Moreover, the business landscape in Ludwiten had grown increasingly complex, with rising foreign investments. Their commitments in Janovin, especially after Owen married Fiona, kept them from returning.Warren had expected Owen to stay in Ludwiten, as he had promised the Grisham family. But Owen broke that promise.Warren's greatest wish had always been to return to
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1156 Oracle
Although the crow was unsure of its owner's thoughts, it was indeed afraid of the dagger made out of Oracle bones.In fact, it wasn't made of ordinary animal bones. It was from the Oracle, one of the Four Perils. Most importantly, it carried spiritual energy from heaven and earth.Back then, the crow didn't expect the insignificant sect, which was consistently at the bottom of each tournament, to have the purest spiritual energy. Plus, all of their members were not to be underestimated. The crow would have never believed it if it hadn't come to live in the mountains with Landon. After all, Landon was bewitched to become the woman's boy toy. He stayed behind only because he liked the sect's spiritual energy. At that, the crow shifted its body and didn't continue to disturb Landon. Since Landon mentioned he needed the knife sheath, the crow would go and get it. Apart from the curved dagger in the wooden box, there was also a somewhat inconspicuous emerald and a turtle shell-lik
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1155 Chemistry
The box included a protective membrane. Carrying bones around would raise questions in modern days. Even Aria worried about inspections. Sometimes, Tobias acted just like those arcane seekers from Mount Dracotigris. When her fingertips touched it, heat surged through her bloodline. The blade felt like it belonged in her hands; even its tassel was exquisitely crafted. But she remembered something when she entered the manifestation and got the Soul-Summoning Plaque. She had been an arcane seeker in her past life, hadn't she? Could an arcane seeker use a blade? She had mostly seen them wielding swords, just like those TV shows with flying swordsmen. Perhaps she had to use a blade because she came from a smaller guild. As Aria traced the bone blade, her initial attraction grew into fascination. Tobias wouldn't leave her just any blade. Since she'd encountered it in the manifestation, it must be connected to her. "Do you like it?" Suddenly, Landon's voice came close. It was low,
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1154 What Belonged to Aria
Breaking the Eight Trigrams Manifestation required precision instead of force. The path led from the East Gate of Life through the Southwest Gate of Rest, finally striking through the North Gate of Opening. But this was not just about breaking a manifestation. The lock had eight marks—Life, Rest, Harm, Block, Vision, Death, Awakening, and Opening. These were the eight gates within the manifestation. As Aria studied the corresponding numbers, she was suddenly struck with inspiration. Following the sequence, she pressed them. The lock then opened with a click. She raised an eyebrow, recognizing the familiar combination. "0715, my birthday." Aria casually opened the box. "Typical of Mr. Revelare to choose that date." She knew she was born on Twilight Hallows, a day when parents would urge children home early. Owen had always believed Aria's birth signs were not the best, and he thought this was likely because of this day. People considered it the Day of Spirits. On this day, a
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1153 Family Bonds
Earlier, Aria had really wanted to keep some family ties for Georgina. After all, Georgina had given Aria all the love meant for her granddaughter, Lily. When the Kents drove her out, Aria had seen Georgina staring at a pair of handmade baby booties. She had made them herself and wanted to give them to Lily. But Karen had scorned them and did not even allow her to see the child. Aria knew Georgina still yearned to see Lily. Blood ties were different. Aria could approach everything else with logic, but not Georgina. When everyone else abandoned her, Georgina stayed. She always said, "We can't let Aria go hungry. Of course, she needs school. Whatever Aria wants, we'll save up for it. The same goes for Sam." Everyone had their weak spots, and for those they loved, anyone would surely lower their defenses. After all, they still held on to hope. Though Georgina never said it, Aria understood she'd held hope for Lily. That was why Aria had not been harsh enough with Lily. But tha
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1152 Lily's a Thief
Lily definitely had not learned her mistake—there must be more to it. Though Aria had investigated, nothing turned up. Now she understood why Lily kept coming here. Aside from using Georgina's connections, she was after what was in the box. "Grandma, the first layer wasn't locked. Do you know what was inside?" Of course Georgina knew. "When the old priest gave me the box, he said anyone could read the books about medicine and the arcane in the first layer, especially you. They were all rare copies." Everything suddenly connected in Aria's mind. No wonder Lily's skills seemed endless; this explained it. Aria turned to Georgina. She preferred to be direct, so she said, "Grandma, I think I know who took them. Recently, a few people visited your place, but there was one you knew well—Lily. She's been using these medical texts to treat people. "Her medical skills are fine, but I worry she's misusing the arcane books for personal gain." Georgina swayed slightly at these words. Li
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1511 A Gift From Tobias
"Christian was your whole world back then, so it wasn't strange you wanted to give him gifts." Though Georgina preferred not to mention him, this particular item must have been precious for Aria to consider giving it away. After explaining, her mood lightened. "I'm glad you realized what you wanted and didn't let the Kent family engagement bind you. I planned to give this to you on your first day of university since that's what the priest requested. But I feel now's the right time." Georgina had wanted to mention this during their last meeting. But Aria had looked so exhausted then, so she'd wanted to let Aria rest. By morning, Aria had already left. With Aria's upcoming trip to Ludwiten and not knowing when they would meet again, Georgina's main concern was returning these items. Aria was really curious about what they might be. Since Georgina said it was left by the old priest who used to visit her, Aria was sure it was from Tobias. She never knew he had left anything for her
The Heiress' Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call Chapter 1150 Keeping Something For Aria
"Seeing Aria like this brings me so much joy." Georgina set down her fan and took a pill, her breathing gradually steadying. Landon observed her condition without surprise. He certainly saw more than Aria did. But fate's secrets were not meant to be revealed; everyone had their own path. All he could do was ask, "Should we tell her about your condition?" "And have her worrying about me while handling everything else?" As she spoke, Georgina waved dismissively. "Managing the Carver Group means there are countless employees depending on her. "Last time I saw her, she was falling asleep sitting up. She already worries too much about me, and I know why. It's because of my granddaughter Lily." Georgina lowered her gaze, smiling. "You know the situation with the Kents. I couldn't survive in Southbury then with everyone pointing fingers and calling me a wicked mother-in-law. They said I had blood on my hands. "But Aria stood by me without judgment. Only then could I come to Janovi
