Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Hope Williams gets kicked out of the Lewis Family
“Let go of ,” Hope Williams’s eyes were rife with cold indignation.
“Why have you co again? Haven’t I said you’re not allowed to enter the Lewis Family! Soone, throw Hope Williams out,” Alitzel Williams angrily pointed towards the door.
Hope Williams was so focused on the old master, her gaze unwilling to stray from afar, that she didn’t pay any attention to Alitzel Williams’s words at all. Thinking that Hope Williams was deliberately ignoring her, Alitzel was both angry and furious. If it weren’t for maintaining the dignity of a fine lady, she would have personally thrown Hope Williams out.
“Are you even listening to ? Don’t you have any manners? When an elder speaks…”
Hope Williams ticulously recalled the process of treating the old master. She knew that each acupuncture point was crucial. With the elder’s body being extrely frail, she had deliberated every step, being careful ti and again—so she was confident there was absolutely no issue with the treatnt.
So where did the problem lie?
“Hope Williams!” Alitzel could not contain her rage, “You’re simply…”
“What did you just say?” Hope Williams’s icy gaze finally turned towards Alitzel, observing her about to explode with anger, seemingly with new wrinkles fuming into existence.
“…” Alitzel was montarily stunned, then her anger surged even more.
“Mom, please calm down. My sister-in-law ca here to treat Grandpa.”
“Treat him?” Alitzel scoffed with scorn, “Is she qualified to treat the elder? With just her dical high school education, what makes her qualified to treat Grandpa.”
“Mom…” Wyatt Lewis was speechless. Alitzel’s grudge against Hope Williams was too deep, utterly irreconcilable. Further discussion would only intensify the conflict. The most effective solution was to persuade his brother first.
“Is Grandpa alright?” Joy Ward rushed in, one of her high heels broken, with her clothes considerably wet—a spectacle hardly better than the state of Hope Williams.
Seeing this, Alitzel’s heart softened a bit, “Joy, how did you end up like this?”
“Sorry, Aunt, I lost my composure because I was so worried about Grandpa. I ran too hastily and ended up like this,” Joy Ward said, slightly embarrassed.
But the pretense of worry for the old master was false; the real fear was that Hope Williams’s arrival would reveal the truth.
“Master, how is Grandpa?” Joy Ward seed extrely concerned about Elder Murphy, holding Alitzel’s hand as she asked.
“It’s baffling, I don’t know where the issue lies. Our last examination showed the old master had improved a lot. How could he suddenly fall ill?” Elder Murphy sat aside, utterly perplexed.
“Could there have been a problem with the prescription?” Alitzel asked with concern. Although she recognized Joy Ward’s dical skills, the prescription she had written before, when shown to other doctors, was said to be too potent. While it was beneficial to the old master’s condition, it was not without its harmful effects.
Alitzel was also worried about the prescription Joy Ward had written…
“It’s not the dicine’s fault,” said Hope Williams and Joy Ward almost in unison.
Hope Williams knew, the dicine she prescribed was tailored to the old master’s body, not a smidge too much or too little. If followed correctly, there should be no problem—unless it wasn’t followed precisely.
A flicker of disdain passed deep within Joy Ward’s eyes. Why was this wretched woman being so proactive?
Ha, as if her prescription could be flawless.
Wasn’t it her own modifications to that subpar prescription that were beneficial? The original formula comprised common herbs, too gentle in effect. Her changes would undoubtedly speed up the old master’s recovery.
Joy Ward lifted her chin proudly, never doubting her own abilities.
Following Hope Williams’s thods was the real problem. Now that the old master had relapsed, it had to be an issue with Hope Williams’s treatnt.
Wasn’t it best if this worthless woman stopped her sloppy treatnts? Now she was being blad for it.
Thinking this, Joy Ward heaved a huge sigh of relief, reassuring herself of Hope Williams’s inferior dical skills, as the old master’s condition was proof enough.
“Yes, I’ve seen the prescription; there’s no problem. That formula is definitely beneficial to the old master’s condition,” Elder Murphy defended his apprentice with a stern note in his now chilly voice.
Joy Ward frowned slightly at the side, earnestly nodding in agreent.
“So what is going on then? You tell . The old master’s condition is so erratic, it’s torturing him,” Alitzel was also anxious.
“Mrs. Lewis, please don’t worry. I have the old master’s condition under control, and there’s no imdiate threat to his life for the ti being. But we still haven’t found the cause of his sudden relapse. I’ve reviewed the previous treatnts and dications by Joy, and there have been no issues. Therefore, to determine the reason for his relapse, we must observe carefully.”
