Chapter 699: The Matriarch Of The Ancient Family
“What does he want? I’m willing to give him everything I have, as long as he’s willing to help my Alice today!” Lady Celia raised her head, tears streaming down her face.
“Alright Celia, this isn’t a matter of money.”
Count Lancaster caught a key point from Elder Hou’s words.
His pupils dilated slightly as he asked in disbelief, “So, you’re saying that the person who was injured was the miracle doctor we’re looking for? The future matriarch of that ancient family?!”
Ancient family? That was a good description.
Elder Hou nodded calmly. “Congratulations, you guessed right.”
It was a pity that there was no reward. No matter what, Huo Yunque would not let Song Yaoyao come today.
Since he had sent someone here and Liu Yu was also here, no one knew Alice’s health better than him.
He said that he would not let Alice die today, so Alice would not die.
What was Elder Hou worried about?
Although their only hope had not come…
Count Lancaster’s expression was inexplicable and slightly absent-minded; no one knew what he was thinking.
Elder Hou saw that he wasn’t speaking. “I just came to tell you that I went to see the miracle doctor, and she promised to come tomorrow to treat Miss Alice. Before that, I hope that you and your wife can understand one thing: whether or not miss Alice recovers smoothly, the doctor would have done her best. So many famous doctors in the world are helpless against Miss Alice’s illness. You can’t expect a doctor to be like a god. She doesn’t have the ability of a god. Please know this…”
After speaking, Elder Hou nodded slightly at the two of them and turned around.
“I wish Miss Alice a speedy recovery.”
…
The room was quiet, emitting a pungent smell of disinfectant.
It made people think of many negative things: death, emptiness, despair…
It was really an ominous smell.
Alice coughed. She was wearing an oxygen mask. Her body had shriveled in a short period of time, and her cheeks were no longer full.
She looked like a shriveled corpse that had been drained of blood by a vampire.
If it were not for the fact that her chest was still rising and falling slightly, people would have thought that this girl had been dead for a long time.
Lady Celia walked in quietly. She held back her tears.
“Darling, everything will be fine.” She lowered her eyes to hide the cold light in her eyes. “I will not let go of anyone who hurts you!”
Alice’s eyelashes trembled dully, and she gently held Lady Celia’s hand.
At this moment, Count Lancaster walked in.
Lady Celia silently shed tears and looked up at him. “Louis, Alice will be fine, right? She will be fine, definitely!”
Count Lancaster nodded. “Yes, our daughter will be blessed by God.”
Lady Celia closed her eyes and began to pray.
“May God bless her.”
…
Count Lancaster sized up the girl in front of him. She was surprisingly young. She was wearing a cheongsam that outlined her graceful curves and a sweater over it. She looked elegant and dignified.
“You… are a doctor?”
Song Yaoyao spread her hands. Huo Si respectfully handed a black cloth bag to her.
“If there have been no mistakes, I should be the one you’ve been looking for.”
She untied the rope, and the silver needles of different lengths were lined up in a row.
Lady Celia clutched her shawl and did not say anything, but as she looked into Song Yaoyao’s eyes, it was obvious that she did not trust her.
Song Yaoyao did not care. “So now, can I go in?”
