Chapter 242
The next day came. It was time for the meeting. Nancy Zeller was wearing a cap, sunsses, weari
and a mask to cover herself up. Gwen Raven also wore sunsses and a mask. Then two of them
met. Nancy took off her mask and sunsses to show her sincerity, looking at Gwen eagerly. “Gwen,
tell me, what ideas do you have? How can we pin the me on Annalise Barton?” Gwen looked at
Nancy and smiled. “You’re not having second thoughts? She’s your grandmother.” “I don’t care.” “You
don’t have any conflicts with Annalise Barton, right?” Gwen’s eyes were filled with curiosity. She had
never understood why Nancy would wish for the death of her own grandmother. Could it be that she
was interested in Julian Parks? If that was the case, it was no surprise
Annalise became her target. Nancy’s eyes flickered as she said with a smile, “I don’t have any grudges
with Annalise Barton. I can’t bear to see her clowning around. Also, that old hag treats me badly, so I
want her to die. And it’ll be even better if Annalise Barton can take the me for her death. Even Sybil
Xander didn’t know that she liked Julian Parks. Why would she let Gwen know of this secret?
Gwen nodded slightly. “Understood!” Some elderlies were indeed annoying, especially those who
favored boys over girls, such as Gwen’s grandfather, Samuel. Nancy looked at Gwen with a burning
gaze, waiting for her to say something. Gwen leaned forward and gestured to Nancy with her finger.
Nancy immediately leaned forward. Gwen whispered to Nancy non-stop. She analyzed the various
situations after Annalise Barton’s acupuncture.
For example, if they could suddenly stab the olddy until she bled likest time, they must take the
opportunity to stall for time until she couldn’t make it. Gwen even listed a few more ways they could
cause Nancy’s grandmother’s death. Regarding the olddy, there were a few acupuncture points on
her body that could not be touched. She would die if so. She reminded Nancy that their n was risky
and warned her not to leave a single piece of evidence behind. Otherwise, it was easy for her to be
exposed. Therefore, they had to n ahead to deal with all kinds of situations appropriately.
Nancy looked at Gwen gratefully. “Yes, Gwen, you’re right. No matter what we do, it’s not worth it if we
sacrifice ourselves.” Gwen was relieved when she heard that. She smiled and said, “Nancy, we only
had coffee together. I didn’t say anything to you.” “No, we haven’t even had coffee.” Nancy smiled at
Gwen tacitly and stood up. “Alright, I’m going back to ‘take good care’ of my grandmother.” Then it was
evening. Annalise and the others left the farmhouse reluctantly.
Henry Dalton mored for some shrimp cocktail, dragging Julian and Annalise along. Before Annalise
could say anything, Mina Simmons eximed, “I can’t wait! Mentor, let’s go!” “You can go. I still have
something to do,” Annalise said. “Why don’t we eat first?” Mina looked at Annalise with her bright eyes.
“We’ll only have ample energy to work after we eat!” Julian actually felt Mina’s words made sense. He
looked at Annalise. “You guys go ahead and eat. We’ll meet up again next time,” Annalise said. She
still had a lot to do.
She would have to check in on Old Madam Zeller’s health before proceeding to the acupuncture
treatment. After that, she had to return to the Park’s residence because Samuel also needed
acupuncture. Samuel’s body had been severely damaged previously. Although she had kept elixir pills
for him, which she had refined herself, she had been away for two days. She had to take a look at him.
Sybil said that her brother’s condition wasn’t good. She asked Annalise to go over and do a check-up
for him. Annalise agreed to do it tomorrow. In addition, she had not checked the sales on Twitter for the
past two days. She had to check it out tomorrow.
There was only a month left. She could not be careless. “Mentor, are you busy treating patients?” Mina
asked. “Yeah.” When Mina heard that, she became even more excited than when Henry said he
wanted to go to a lobster banquet. “Mentor, I want to go with you. Don’t worry. I won’t disturb you when
you’re treating the patient. I’ll stand at the side and watch.”
Annalise thought for a moment and agreed, “Okay.” No matter what, John had already epted Mina
as her disciple on her behalf. She had to teach her something. Otherwise, she would be letting Mina
down. Mina rubbed her hands excitedly. This was her first time learning from her mentor! They split up
afterward. Sybil and Henry went to have some shrimp cocktail while Annalise, Julian, and Mina headed
for the Zeller’s residence.

When they arrived, the Zeller family had already prepared tea, snacks, and various fruits. Jason Zeller
was all smiles and very polite. “Julian, Annalise, I’m sure it’s been a long journey. Come, sit down and
have a cup of tea.” The Zeller family and the Park family weren’t that close. They hadn’t had many
interactions either. In the past, they just minded their own business and onlypeted for their
interests when needed. Hence, they did not have the chance to cooperate. In the past, when Jason
saw Julian, he would address him as Mr. Parks.
Ever since Jonathan Woods and Annalise came over to see the Old Madam Zeller, the situation
seemed to have changed. Jason quietly changed the way he addressed him. Julian did not mind. He
nodded slightly and led Annalise to sit down. He had to let his wife rest since their journey here was
two hours long. After all, she would have to spend much of her energy on acupunctureter. “Anna, try
this pineapple. It’s sweet and juicy.” Nancy smiled and pushed a te of pineapple to Annalise. She
seemed very friendly. “Thank you!” Annalise smiled and thanked her.
“You’re wee,” Nancy replied graciously. Annalise sat for a while and suggested that she go have a
look at Old Madam Zeller. Jason immediately said, “Please do, Annalise. The olddy is still staying in
her original room. ording to what you mentioned, we did moxibustion on the acupuncture points
every day. We also take her out for some fresh air when it is sunny.”
“I see,” Annalise replied. As a doctor, she was d that the patient’s family members obeyed her
orders. When she reached the olddy’s room, Annalise sat at the edge of the bed to take her pulse.
The olddy’s expression was slightly better than before. Annalise could also feel that her body’s
condition was slightly better. At least some of her meridians were being unblocked.
The olddy was still in pain and humming, but seemed to have regained some of her senses. She was
very grateful to see Annalise. “You’re here! Thank you for saving my life. It hurts, but it’s better to live
than to die. I can’t leave my children behind when I haven’t witnessed them form their own family.” She
spoke much more coherently now than before. Previously, she would pant heavily when she spoke.
Now, she could finish speaking in one breath.
Jason said to the olddy, “Mom, our family is blessed to have met Annalise. You can rx and take
good care of yourself. You can live for a few more decades to witness Jasper and the others get
married and have children.” “Yes, I’m still waiting.” The olddy looked at Annalise with gratitude and
love. After taking her pulse, Annalise said, “Don’t worry. With Old Madam’s condition, she won’t be in
so much pain after another two months of acupuncture treatment. She’ll slowly recover.”
