    Chapter 73


    Outside the crowd, Percival and Leopold Sterling watched the scene unfold before them in


    astonishment.


    They knew Vivienne had some incredible medical skills, but they never expected that she could save


    someone from the brink of death.


    "I never thought there would be anyone with better medical skills than the Mystic Mistress in this world.


    Mr. Ellington, you hit the jackpot by marrying Ms. Vivienne." Leopold said, looking quite hyped.


    Who in the world could guarantee that they would never get sick in their lifetime?


    Especially for people like them who lived life on the edge. They could be ambushed any day.


    Having someone with top-notch medical skills by their side was like having an extra life.


    Percival nodded. "Indeed."


    Vivienne packed up her acupuncture kit and said to thedy, "She''s out of immediate danger, but you


    should still take her to the hospital for a thorough check-up."


    After examining ra, Vivienne knew that the elderly always had various health issues. So, even


    though she managed to save ra''s life, the remaining issues were minor but still had to be attended


    to. A trip to the hospital and maintaining her medicine would sort them out.


    "I don’t need any payment."


    With that, Vivienne, hand in hand with Thaddeus, was about to leave when she noticed someone


    filming with their phone.


    The culprit was a guy in his twenties.


    Vivienne walked up to him and patted his shoulder. "Filming and uploading to social media without my


    permission? I''ll hold you ountable."


    The young guy looked nervous. "Miss, you saved someone. If this gets on social media, you''ll be


    super famous. Don''t you want that?"


    "I don''t." Vivienne replied casually, "Delete it."


    Before the guy could say anything else, Vivienne had already taken his phone, did some swift finger


    work, and the video was deleted.


    "Hey, you..." Before the guy could react, Vivienne was already gone.


    Vivienne walked out of the crowd and spotted Percival and the others immediately.


    Isolde ran over and hugged her leg. "Vivienne."


    The little girl was short, so whenever she wanted to hug Vivienne, she could only reach her legs.


    Vivienne patted her head and smiled. "When did you get here?"


    "We''ve been here since you started treating the person." They arrived at Tranquil Estates a little after


    Vivienne left.


    Plus, they drove here, so they arrived just minutes after Vivienne.


    There was no parking spot nearby, so they nned to park somewhere close and coincidentally saw


    Vivienne.


    Vivienne hadn’t noticed them. “Let’s go.”


    Isolde waved at Thaddeus. “Thaddeus.”


    Thaddeus smiled back. “Isolde.”


    Thaddeus was only two months older than Isolde, but every time she saw him, she made sure to greet


    him properly.


    Besides Percival, who was being pushed in a wheelchair by Thomas, everyone else was walking.


    Recalling the scene of Vivienne saving the person, Leopold asked, "Ms. Vivienne, who''d you learn your


    medical skills from? They are quite impressive."


    Vivienne coldly responded, "I''m self-taught." Her words carried a hint of arrogance.


    Leopold asked, "So if we need medical help in the future, can you help?"


    Vivienne nced at him and replied, "Sure, but it''ll cost you."


    "That''s fair."


    Leopold suddenly thought of something. "But why didn''t you charge when you treated Isolde and the


    elderlydy?"


    "Because I wanted to, I felt like it. Got a problem with that?" Her attitude left Leopold puzzled. He had


    no clue what he did to upset her.


    Vivienne''s rates were actually quite low for her usual standards. Because she dealt with terminal


    illnesses and emergencies, her prices were naturally high. Of course, it also depended on the specific


    situation.


    She treated both Isolde and ra out of her own free will, hence no charges. For the wealthy, her


    starting price was high. It was just the consultation fee alone and didn''t include medication.


    However, for some reason, she couldn''t publicly acknowledge her medical skills, so she hadn''t treated


    many people so far. On the other hand, rich people usually had their own family doctors and regr


    health checks, so there weren''t many critically ill people needing her treatment.


    Of course, if she encountered someone who was decent but not well-off, she''d treat them for free.


    Leopold asked, "Ms. Vivienne, do you have something against me?"


    Vivienne suddenlyughed. "Guess?"


    Leopold was speechless. He had no clue.


    At the Hawthorn family’s home.


    Arabe had just finished her meal when Doreen Baker came. She came to pick up Arabe to treat


    her daughter, Faye Churchill, at the Baker family’s mansion. Arabe didn''t hesitate and immediately


    followed Doreen.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    The Baker family''s mansion was in the northern vi district. It was quite a distance from the Hawthorn


    family’s mansion. It took over forty minutes to drive there.


    The Baker family''s mansion was even more luxurious than the Hawthorn''s. It had a slightly ssical


    decor that oozed sophistication.


    Bertha was the one who opened the door. "Is this Arabe? Come in; we''ve been waiting for you."


    Arabe greeted her politely with a smile. Despite her courteous attitude, there was a hint of arrogance


    in her tone.


    Bertha ushered Arabe inside and then ordered the maid, "Quickly make a coffee for Miss Arabe."


    Arabe interjected. "No need; I still have to study. Let''s see the patient first."


    "Faye''s upstairs; let''s head up." Doreen noticed that ever since Arabe arrived at the Baker Mansion,


    she had been acting kinda frosty. It rubbed her the wrong way.


    But she had to bite her tongue, considering Arabe was here to treat her daughter.


    Arabe frowned a bit. She was clearly not thrilled but didn''t say anything and followed Doreen


    upstairs.


    The curtains in Faye''s room were pulled tight, so the room was very dark.


    Doreen flipped on the light, and the room brightened up.


    Faye wasn''t having it when she heard someone wasing to treat her. She was curled up in the


    corner, refusing to budge.


    Arabe tried to coax her. "Ms. Faye, I can''t treat you if you won''t let me see your face. I''m a doctor;


    you’ve gotta trust me."


    Faye just sat in her corner with her knees drawn up and her head buried deep between her legs. She


    didn''t utter a word and didn''t move an inch.


    Arabe tried to persuade her for a long time, but Faye didn''t react at all. Arabe was now getting a bit


    peeved. "Ms. Faye, I''ve taken time off from my studies to treat you. If you won''t cooperate, I''m just


    gonna have to leave."
