Turning The Tables
Slap! After giving himself a crisp slap, Ford lowered his head. “I was too arrogant and ignorant. Please
forgive me for being young and cocky. Would you take me as your apprentice?”
When Ford’s assistant heard him admitting himself to be “young and cocky,” the corners of his lips
twitched in disbelief.
Young and cocky? Pfft, more like old and clumsy!
Besides the assistant, no one else heard how Ford describing himself as “young and cocky.” Instead,
they focused on how Ford had asked Arielle to take him as her apprentice.
Yvette tugged on Ford’s arm furiously and exclaimed, “Dr. Jangler, what is this? Explain yourself!”
Take him as her apprentice? Why did he say that all of a sudden? Did Arielle cure Dad for real?
No, that’s impossible!
“Hurry up and make yourself clear!” Yvette stomped and urged.
Then, Ford gazed at Yvette and took the report from her. He pointed at a string of numbers and
explained, “The data shows that Mr. Actonward had suffered from a stroke. No stroke patient will be able
to recover themselves.”
Yvette’s eyes went wide in aghast.
I can’t believe Arielle was the one who cured Dad!
Russell scrambled up from his bed and fell to his knees before Arielle.
“Arielle, you saved my life! The Actonward family owes you one!”
He then proceeded to bow to Arielle.
Many people had knelt before Arielle today, but none of them had bowed to her.
She took Russell’s arm and pulled him up. “Mr. Actonward, you don’t have to do that. I’m only doing my
job.”
Yvette’s expression contorted in anger when she saw her father kneeling to the person she hated the
most.
Quickly, she pulled Russell away. “Dad, what are you doing? She knows first aid care, so it’s perfectly
normal for her to save you. It’s just a coincidence!”
Right then, Ford, who had the report in his hand, spoke up. “No!”
Everyone turned to him instinctively.
Are things about to take a turn?
Yvette reacted swiftly. She thought Ford had misread the report and queried immediately, “Dr. Jangler,
you got it wrong, right? Dad didn’t suffer from a stroke. He only fainted in a fit of anger, right?”
Ford shook his head and turned the report over so everyone could see it clearly.
He pointed at another string of numbers and explained, “These indicators should be in red. Mr.
Actonward had been suffering from cardiovascular disease for a long time. I hadn’t been able to cure
him. In fact, I daresay no doctor can cure him as of now. But, take a look. The indicators are all green
now.”
He was saying that Arielle had cured Russell’s chronic disease that no doctors could cure.
Yvette was appalled at the turn of events.
Right then, everyone else’s gazes turned respectful.
As Arielle managed to cure Russell’s stroke, she was an exceptional doctor.
If Russell was sent to the hospital on time, he could recover from his stroke as it wasn’t deadly. However,
they found Arielle’s treatment strange as they had never seen it before.
Now, even the medical expert was saying that Arielle cured a chronic disease that he and other doctors
couldn’t cure. Clearly, Arielle was a miracle doctor and not just a normal medical expert.
A miracle doctor was in a different range than a medical expert.
