Chapter 126 Only Medicine Cures Diseases
In the hall, five servants stood in a row, bowing their heads. Each of them held a delicate jewelry
box that contained exquisite pieces. It was time for Dora to decide which one she would wear.
Vivian''s birthday party would take ce tonight. All the members of the Shi family were invited. In
fact, all of them received golden invitation cards, but only Jason, Jessica, John, James, Chester,
and Dora would attend the party.
James and Chester looked calm. Dora was joyful. She really wanted to go to the party and have a
great time.

"Uncle John, please have a seat. I''ll go upstairs and try on the dress I''ll be wearing tonight. And
then you can help me choose the right essories." This was why Dora dragged John here.
Before John could speak, Dora was already flitting up the stairs. John frowned slightly. He did not
sign up for this.
Noticing the change in John''s expression, James quickly approached him and handed him a peeled
apple. He smiled at his favorite uncle. "Try the apple, Uncle John. It''s very sweet and delicious."
John nced at James indifferently and did not say anything.
"Look at my arm. I was injured, and yet I peeled the apple myself." James moved his hand and
gasped inaudibly in pain. Then, he grinned quickly.
The kid was usually arrogant, but in front of John, he was a bit foolish yet sweet.
James'' sincere and bright smile dazed John. He then took the apple and took a bite.
Seeing that John began to chew and swallow, James smiled with satisfaction. He leaned back on
the sofa and sprawled therezily.
He began toin, "What do you think Dora is up to? What''s she doing asking three men for
fashion advice? Shouldn''t she be asking women? Only women know how to dress. We don''t know
scat about it."
John paused and nodded slightly. It was rare for James to have the same thought as him.
Chester, who had his nose buried in a book, looked up and said, "Uncle John is the person Dora
admires the most. She even said that she would find someone like him to marry in the future. She
wants to know his taste so that she can apply that to herself and woo a man who''s like him."
"That''s ridiculous. If I were her, I''d give up as early as now. Dora is nothingpared to my dear
aunt. There''s just no way Dora can measure up to her. She''s not as beautiful and strong as my
aunt." When it came to fighting skills, few women in Lexingport City couldpare to Nina.
There was a look of disgust on James'' face. He felt that it was unable for Dora to find someone like
John.
"Am I right, Uncle John?"
"Yes." A smile appeared on John''s face. Nina was indeed iparable.
"Uncle John, what does my aunt look like?" Closing his book on hisp, Chester raised his head
and decided to feed his curiosity about John''s wife.
John was a little surprised that the boy called Nina his aunt. John could not help smiling.
Indeed, the woman who John loved must be as excellent as John.
"You will meet her tonight." He would take Nina to Vivian''s birthday party tonight as his way of letting
Vivian know that the proposed political marriage between them was off the table.
"You will attend her birthday party tonight with my aunt?" Astonishment was written in Chester''s
widened eyes.
John was seldom interested in women. He seldom attended banquets with a woman on his arm. So
was he going to tell everyone about him and Nina tonight at Vivian''s party?
"Yes." John nodded with a gentle expression.
"Uncle John will definitely bring her with him to the party. How can he leave her alone at North
Yard?" James showed that he had known it.
He knew that John liked living with Nina.
"Oh, I look forward to seeing her," Chester chirped. Then, he went back to reading his book.
"Uncle John, what do you think about this dress?" Dora came down from the second floor. Her
sweet voice caught the attention of the three men.
She was wearing a purple evening dress from the spring and summer haute couture collection of
FG. A total of three dressesprised the collection. Dora owned one dress while the other two
were in Nina''s and Vivian''s possession respectively.
Dora was wearing the one-shoulder dress with a lotus leaf design, a narrow waistline, and an ankle-
length balloon skirt. The light purple dress was covered in crystal-studdedce, making the dress
sparkle under the light. It was so beautiful and enchanting.
With her slightly round face and pretty smile, Dora looked radiant and elegant.
"Well, what do you think? Do I look beautiful in it?" Dora walked in front of them, spinning around
like a princess.
James sat up straight and sighed, "Wow. I didn''t realize that you could look so beautiful with the
right dress."
"It''s not toote to realize it now, James." Dora shook her head and smiled like a blossoming flower.
Chester simply nodded and said, "Yes. Beautiful."
"You think so? Uncle John, what about you? What do you think? Do I look pretty?" Holding up the
balloon shirt and treading carefully, Dora happily moved toward John.
"Not bad," Johnmented, ncing at her.
''Nina would look more beautiful in that dress,'' he thought to himself.
"Oh, I''m so d you like it! Come on. Help me choose my essories. You must give me some
advice." Dora then turned around to look at the jewelry the servants were holding.
A minuteter, Dora was wearing a silver tiara on her head, a pair of tasseled earrings in her ears,
and a diamond ne around her neck.
"What do you think? Do I look okay?" Dora asked with a sweet smile.
After looking at her for a while, Jamesmented, "Dora, you need a handbag. It willplete the
look, and I speak from experience."
"All right!" Dora''s eyes lit up. She was going to say that she needed a handbag, but James had said
it before she could.
And that was why she asked John toe here.
"Uncle John, I still need a small bag. I want the handbag from FG. I''ve heard that it''s not for sale,
but you can get it for me, right?" It was not for sale, so she was unable to get it.
Even though Dora was a member of the Shi family, she was not allowed to take things at will. It was
a business. She needed to pay for the stuff she wanted. That was the rule of the Shi family.
"So this is what you really want," James sighed.
"Well, she can forget it because it''s not for sale," John answered immediately.
He wanted Dora to give it a rest. She should just choose another handbag to go with her dress.
Dora squatted down and started acting like a spoiled child. "Uncle John, as long as you tell them
you want the bag, they will give it to you. It''s such an easy thing," she whined.
"No." John was firm in his decision. He would not break the rules.
"Uncle John..." Dora pleaded. She batted her eyshes at John, but John did not budge. Suddenly,
she put one hand on her forehead and said weakly, "My head aches. I think I''m going to faint."
"Call the doctor." Without even blinking, John knew that she was only pretending to be sick.
It was exactly what Nina did yesterday. It was such a rookie move.
Dora pouted, "Uncle John, doctors can''t cure my headache. Only that bag can cure it. It is said that
bags can cure all kinds of diseases for women."
She liked that bag, and she would do anything for the things that she liked. She would try her best
to convince John to get it for her.
The other members of the Shi family spoiled Dora and always granted her requests, but John was
different. He just said coldly, "Only medicine can cure diseases. Do you honestly think that line
would work on me?"
James burst intoughter.
No one could take advantage of his Uncle John''s power and connections.
Except for Nina.
