Chapter 1285 Cause Of Disease
Queenie glowered at Arielle, her gaze oozing distaste. I thought Arielle had a heart of gold. Who would
have known that she would disregard others’ safety for her own benefit?
“Did you forget to brush your teeth this morning?” the elderlydy snapped with thinly-veiled anger.
“Take my advice and brush your teeth before talking to me.”
“What?” Queenie was bbergasted. “But I’ve already brushed my teeth!”
“Then why is your mouth so foul? You might as well not brush it!” the elderlydy scoffed.
Queenie’s face flushed scarlet as she btedly understood the insult. The fact that she, the precious
daughter of the Mills, had been publicly ridiculed by an old hag was mortifying.
“Am I wrong? Your belly was protruding when you arrived yesterday, and all the rounds of screening
showed that you’re pregnant. Now, your belly is gone after a night. The only logical exnation is that
you got an abortion!”
Trying her best to maintain herposure, Queenie reasoned with the elderlydy, “I know that my
words may not be pleasing to your ears, but theye from a good ce. You’re not that young
anymore, so the risk of going through an abortion is incredibly high. Arielle is only encouraging you to
go for the surgery so that she can get a good grade. She doesn’t care for your health or safety because
she’s trying to achieve higher marks!”
Rage bubbled up within the elderly patient as she listened to Quennie ramble on about pregnancy and
abortion. She had the itch to p Queenie across the face.
“Didn’t the youngdy tell you yesterday that I’m not pregnant? Which part of that sentence do you not
understand?”
The old woman stared at Queenie with contempt. Thisdy must be rotten to the core! Why else is she

ndering the girl who’s trying to treat me? Heaving a sigh, the elderlydy admonished, “There will be
diseases that you don’t know how to treat, and there will be people who are able to treat them. You
can’t be mad about that! You should know that there’s always someone better than you out there. The
only reason you aren’t able to cure this illness is that your medical expertise isn’t as good as hers.”
The corners of Arielle’s lips quirked up in a smirk as she listened to the elderlydy berate Queenie.
This old woman is way too amusing. But, Queenie is dumber than I thought. If the old woman really
underwent an abortion, a woman her age would need to be hospitalized for at least eight to ten days
and recuperate at home after. How would she have the energy to follow me to Silverbirch Hospital?
“Since you insist that it’s not pregnancy, enlighten me on what disease it is then. How did you get rid of
all the signs in the span of a night?” Queenie spluttered, severely offended that the elderlydy thought
her to be less skilled than Arielle.
However, the more aggravated Queenie got, the more gleeful Arielle became. After all, it was gratifying
to see her opponent upset.
“It’s true that she isn’t pregnant. Queenie, didn’t I tell you yesterday that we shouldn’t take things at
surface value? Why can’t you remember that?”
“Stop spouting nonsense and just tell me what happened to the old woman’s belly.” Queenie refused to
believe that the elderlydy was sick. She had performed multiple check-ups on her yesterday, and
each screening showed that the elderlydy was indeed pregnant.
“Ms. Moore, we would like to know what illness the olddy had as well and how you healed her.”
Viggo had grasped the situation and was also curious as to how Arielle had figured out the cause of the
disease and its cure.
“This patient here was not pregnant. She was infected by a very rare parasite. Once infected by this
parasite, the host might lose his or her life in half a year if the cause is not found. Conversely, if the root
cause is identified in time and dealt with adequately, then the patient will be fine.” Arielle’s face grew
grim as she spoke.
