Chapter 62


    Felicity, who spoke without a filter, taunted condescendingly, “Ms. McMin, everyone says that you


    have the heart of a saint, but you won’t help even when you won’t be required to perform the


    surgery yourself!! say you’ve got a heart of stone!*


    The two other youngdies looked Sierra up and down questioningly.


    Everyone imed that Sierra was a medical genius and that she was very sessful. But judging


    based on their reactions earlier on, Sierra had been shocked silly and was nowhere near as calm


    and collected as Gisele, who was a nobody.


    “Perhaps she’s not actually that close with Professor Ss?” another one of the women quipped.


    That seemed like a moment of revtion for most of them. Felicity chimed in, “Oh, so that’s what


    this is all about. No wonder she won’t help even when Aunt Sandra begged her to help. It turns out


    it was all a lie!


    “Felicity,” Dorian said in a warning tone.


    Felicity wasn’t about to back down and wanted to carry on, but Sandra tugged at her arm lightly.


    They were here to seek help, not to make enemies.


    Silence fell in the living room, and Za looked displeased as she reached for Sierra’s hand.


    “Sierra, why won’t you agree to it? Are you worried that it’d be embarrassing to ask Ss for help?”


    They could not understand why Sierra was reluctant to help. To them, it was something to take pride


    in to be able to speak to Ss, even more so for someone like Sierra, who was somewhat a medical


    celebrity whom everyone held in high regards.


    “No, it’s just that I’m afraid he might be very busy… It’s the time of the year that he’s recruiting


    students. I’m afraid that he won’t be free.


    “If you don’t mind, I can give it a try,” Sierra said before biting her lower l*p, appearing pitiful and


    afflicted.


    Ss‘ autumn recruitment was as different as it could get from usual school’s admission. He


    required a written examination before interviewing those who passed. Then, marks from both


    sessions would be added up, and the top three candidates with the highest marks would be


    recruited as his apprentice.


    Usually, those who were epted were really talented people who were not only smart and


    adaptable, but also extremely coordinated and in good physical shape.


    Deborah looked pale as she rested. Seeing her in this state, Sandra couldn’t refrain herself from


    asking.” Celeste, I only brought Deborah here because I trusted you. And now, you’re going to let


    her be carried out like this?


    “Are you sure this wouldn’t be an embarrassment to both the Jefferson family and the Witham


    family? Also, will the contract we signed be nullified?”


    “Sandra, you’re asking too much!” Celeste red at her angrily.


    what


    Then, she shouted at Sandra, “Yes, i armati was bragging a litte, but we about you? Who were op


    despicable to get me to sign a contract, and you hit the front of Stratos conditism from an ow dare


    you question me now?


    “I hid the truth? Why didn’t you read the contract? Sandra never expectart Celente to store here a


    hysterical shrew


    For a moment, a huge ruckus broke out. Den got a splitting headache from seeing then squable


    the that, so he got up and walked over to Gisele Gisele, this doesn’t concen you Hene,e with


    me to the


    study”


    “Sure,” she said before shooting Deborah a worried gaze


    “Enough!” Dorian shouted in the noisy living room.


    Instantly, everyone fell silent and looked over at him with anticipation in their eyes

    Dorian’s deep gaze fell on Gisele, and he said, “The contract still stands Gisele will be lent to you so


    that she can treat Deborah. She’s gifted in using traditional means of healing if anything happens in


    this period of time, she will be held liable.


    Everyone turned to look at Gisele, who stood on the stairs. Her slender frame eaned fal, and


    there was a helpless smile on her exquisite face. In the end, she was the one who was sacrificed


    The truth was, she already had a premonition that this would happen once things started getting


    messy


    Sandra frowned and retorted in a disgruntled manner, “Mr. Dorian, are you trying to brush us off?


    No


    matter what, this is life on the line!”


    “You wouldn’t dare to have the surgery done if you’re unable to get Professor Lyons to do it, would


    you?”


    Dorian retaliated.


    At that, Sandra fell silent.


    Sierra was inwardly ted. She knew that Dorian would take her side unconditionally
