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

Chapter 22 Landon Arrives

Scoffing, Salome said, "What are you people so shocked by it? She's a country bumpkin. It's no surprise she's familiar with the symptoms of a tick bite. She's just tricking everyone into thinking she knows medicine. Go on. See if she dares to conduct surgery!"Aria didn't intend to perform surgery on Warren. Instead, she took out a set of acupuncture needles from the medical kit.Everyone who had high hopes for Aria's medical skills was sorely disappointed by this."Acupuncture needles? Is she going to administer acupuncture when the patient's condition is that serious?""She's not taking it seriously at all!""Maybe it's because she doesn't know how to perform surgery. Why did Dr. Lowe choose to have faith in a young woman like her? What a troublesome turn of events."Salome gloated, "What did I say? It was all just an act. She has no real talent at all. Maybe the license is a fake too!""Dr. Gunther's right. How can such a young woman be a licensed attending physician?""Don'

Chapter 23 Sparks Flying

The moment Landon stepped into the elevator, the air inside seemed to grow cold. With his gaze averted, he seemed like a peaceful, harmless person, but when his gaze focused on someone, it gave that person a somewhat frightening feeling."Fill me in on the situation," Landon said.Wiping his sweat away, Abraham said, "Rest assured, Mr. York. Dr. Gunther is an expert in this field. With her treating Mr. Carver Senior, I'm sure everything will be fine!"Only Landon, who held the reins in the York family, could strike such fear in the hearts of other prominent people.Toying with the rosary bracelet he was wearing, Landon quirked an eyebrow and remarked, "That's not what I heard.""W-We're not lying, Mr. York," Harold stammered. "We would never do anything to jeopardize Mr. Carver Senior's condition. After all, he's from the Carver family!"Landon didn't say anything. He simply waited until the elevator reached the sixth floor, but that only made his commanding presence feel even mo

Chapter 24 I Need a Test Subject

Neither Aria nor Landon averted their eyes. In fact, Aria blatantly stared at Landon with a clear, unwavering gaze.She was fond of looking at handsome men and had seen her fair share before, but none could compare to the man standing before her. His sickly pale complexion complemented his dark, obsidian eyes. The combination gave off an air of cold sternness when he looked at others.He had the air of a reserved gentleman, both noble yet fragile at the same time. It was uncommon among men.The hustle and bustle of the hospital didn't drown out his presence. He stood there looking like an aristocrat from ancient times.Aria watched as Frank ran over to Landon the moment he spotted Landon and rambled away in excitement.Separated by the window and the wall, Aria couldn't hear their conversation. She simply raised her eyebrow.At the very next second, Landon looked at her once more. The warm light of his surroundings added a touch of haziness to his features, but the lack of distin

Chapter 25 Do You Know Who You Are Messing With

Abraham widened his eyes in shock, thinking to himself, "It can't be. Does she want to use Mr. York as her test subject? How can she even think of that? Is she trying to get herself killed?"He stepped forward to draw attention to himself and said to Aria, "Why don't you…"Before he could volunteer himself as Aria's test subject, she, still in a mask, was already approaching Landon.Only then did the balding Abraham realize she was even taller than him!The slender, long-legged Aria was five feet eight inches tall. Her bewitching eyes stood out, making it obvious she was a beautiful woman. Somehow, sparks seemed to fly in the air when she stood in front of Landon, who was six feet two inches tall.The two of them gave off vastly different impressions. One was cool and aloof, while the other was fiery and striking. It was as if opposites had met.Landon's eyes took on a frostiness when Aria came close, but she stopped at a polite distance away from him before taking off her face m

Chapter 26 Close Proximity

Alas, Frank dared not dwell on that thought. He had brought Aria over, and furthermore, she had just saved Warren's life. He couldn't stand by and do nothing while she dug a grave for herself."I'm afraid Dr. Genius here is a little blunt. She may come across as tactless sometimes… I'm sure you won't hold it against her," Frank said pleadingly as he looked at Landon.Landon simply hummed in response.Raising an eyebrow, Aria asked in puzzlement, "Why are you so nervous, Mr. Levin? Was there something wrong with my description?""Not at all," Landon chimed in, though his sudden chuckle sent chills down others' spines. "Your description was very apt.""Good-looking people always know the right things to say," Aria remarked, her gaze clear.Then, she turned around and looked at the doctors who had just returned. They had gone off to get their notebooks and phones just now, so they didn't know what happened moments ago.Aria asked, "Is everyone here?""Yes, we're all here!" the doc

Chapter 27 Not Long to Live

Landon felt as though something inside his body was struggling to break free, threatening to destroy everything in its wake. A heated feeling was building up inside of him.He subconsciously swallowed. The motion added an air of sexiness to him as he stood under the light. It was a rare sight.Everyone in Janovin knew that Landon lived an ascetic life. He was even a vegetarian. No one had ever been able to make him lose his air of refinement and aloofness. But now, his shirt was half-open, and his hair was ruffled.Frank was terrified, thinking that Aria had truly offended Landon this time.He had worked with Warren for many years now. The Carvers and the Yorks were well-acquainted, and Landon made frequent trips to Carver Group in order to cancel the marriage agreement between the two families.Thus, Frank had met Landon many times before, and he had never seen Landon eyeing someone with such a dangerous look in his eyes.Most of the time, Landon's gaze was calm and unruffled. H

Chapter 28 She Can Treat Landon's Condition

As soon as Aria said those words, a deafening silence fell.Landon fixed his eyes on her. The light reflected in his clear, aloof gaze.The other doctors present didn't know who Landon was. But as medical professionals, they were all aware of one thing—doctors wouldn't deliver such bad news unless it was indeed a hopeless situation.Aria had been smiling all along, but now, her expression was serious. It didn't look like she was joking.Could it be true? Was he really dying soon? He was a little pale, but it didn't seem like he was on the verge of death.All the doctors looked at Landon.Abraham and Harold exchanged a glance before hastily shooing the other doctors away.Frank's heart missed a beat when he heard Aria's comment. He instinctively tried to pull her away.Landon's health was a constant concern for almost the entire York family.In fact, Landon was only here in a small city like Southbury because it was said that the Whiz Doctor had once shown up here.Even though

Chapter 29 Do You Know Who He Is

"There's no guarantee that I can treat him," Aria said as she leaned against the wall and yawned. "I don't know his medical history, so I can't make a diagnosis. Also…"Landon chuckled and continued her sentence for her, saying, "Also, you're tired now, so you don't want to check on any more patients today.""It's always so easy to communicate with smart people," Aria remarked as she raised her brows and looked at Landon with a smile. She checked his pulse before adding, "Considering your condition, your treatment can't be rushed."It felt as though even God seemed reluctant to let Landon's life end, thus allowing him to continue living.Aria figured Landon wasn't the type to give up easily. He trusted and relied on himself more than anything or anyone else.He was wearing a rosary bracelet, which seemingly proved he sought protection from God. However, it was simply used as an essential oil carrier—something to help him stay calm and alleviate stress.Aria caught the scent of th

Chapter 30 No Ordinary Person

"That man?" Aria repeated, focusing on the way Frank addressed Landon. "He's not a member of the Carver family?"Frank dared not expose Landon's identity, of course, so he said stiffly, "You could say he's a distant relative. His last name isn't Carver."Chewing on a piece of candy, Aria said with a faint smile, "I thought you'd insist that the old patient wasn't named Carver, Mr. Levin.""That's because I now consider you a friend," Frank said glibly. "Furthermore, you seem like a principled and ethical person, so I have nothing to worry about. You're right. My boss is indeed one of the Carvers of Janovin, the wealthiest family there.""Uh-huh," Aria said, still sucking on her candy.Realizing that she didn't seem to care at all, Frank chuckled and remarked, "I should've known to expect as much from you. You're able to take this news without making a big deal out of it. I was worried about nothing earlier. Do accept my apologies.""It's only right for you to protect your employe
