Chapter 257

The Source of Her Hostility

Betting a marriage contract was crossing the line.

Master Walton's expression changed. He finally knew the source of Fiona's hostility toward Lucille.

Everyone in Shein City knew that Flona, the eldest daughter of the Melling family, was infatuated with Joseph. There was even a rumor that she would eventually become the Collins family's mistress.

Obviously, she was angry that it wasn't coming true.

Master Walton tugged at Lucille's sleeve, signaling for her not to take the bait. Treating someone was meant to be done out of kindness. If they were unable to save a patient, there wasn't anything they could do about it. There was no need for her to bet her engagement on it.

Even so, Lucille chuckled and agreed without hesitation.

"Sure."

Fiona's eyes lit up. "Keep your word, then. Don't go back on it!"

There was nothing to go back on.

Lucille was about to earn 20 million dollars for doing practically nothing. She would have to be stupid to

refuse.

After giving a lazy response, she walked forward and retrieved the tools that Master Walton had brought, She even skipped the process of taking Master Melling's pulse and immediately began treating him.

When the members of the Melling family saw this, their faces turned pale with fear.

They wanted to reprimand Lucille but were stopped by Fiona.

"Don't worry. We have Master Walton here. Wait a little longer."

Fiona was determined to make Lucille back off.

Even Master Walton couldn't handle a disease like this She refused to believe that Lucille, a new student, could do something that even an expert couldn't.

She wanted to wait and see.

She had to take advantage of the opportunity and make Lucille give up her position as the mistress of the Collins family.

The rest of the Melling family members looked at each other, frowning so intensely that they would be dead if looks could kill. However, since Hogan did not say anything, they naturally had no right to criticize Fiona, who was the successor of the Melling family. At that moment, one of them exclaimed, "Look! What's that?"noveldrama

-Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Master Melling.

Lucille made an incision in the space between Master Melling's eyebrows. Immediately, a puff of black gas emerged from the slit.

The black gas disappeared in the blink of an eye. The Melling family members were so shocked that their eyes widened. If they hadn't seen it themselves, they wouldn't have believed it.

Seeing that, Master Walton couldn't help but gasp.

"I-Is that dark energy?"

The Source of Her Hostility

Lucille retrieved her tools and casually replied, "That's right."

Everyone had different energies in their body. Master Melling's condition because of a disease, but rather, due to his body being tainted by dark energy. He often fainted and lacked energy. He would keep talking to himself as if he was hallucinating.

Lucille turned around. She tore a plece of paper and wrote down her bank account number. Then, she handed it to Fiona and said with a faint grin, "Thanks for the money, Miss Melling."

Fiona gritted his teeth silently and took the note with hatred. She icily grumbled, "As long as r grandfather wakes up safe and sound, I will give you 20 million dollars. No more, no less." my

"That's good."

Lucille was in a good mood and left the Melling family home leisurely.

"Miss Bambo!" Master Walton rushed out after her. He had countless questions in his heart, and the only person who could answer him was Lucille.

"Miss Bambo, is Master Melling really cured now? Where did that dark energy come from? How could you tell that his condition was caused by dark energy instead of some other disease?"

Faced with that series of questions, Lucille smiled and replied, "I'll get you a medical book one of these days. You can study it by yourself. If you go through it thoroughly, you'll be able to accurately diagnose someone when you encounter similar symptoms in the future." Master Walton was overjoyed. "Thank you, Miss Bambo!"
