Queenie’s older brother, Cornellus, was in charge of Silverbirch Hospital.
The hospital wasn’t just limited to selling herbs, they even established several clinics and developed a good reputation for their skill. Many patients recovered from their illness after a trip to one of Silverbirch Hospital’s clinics.
Arielle made a trip to Silverbirch Hospital because virtual-novel.net wanted to purchase some herbs for Josee. Unlike the old Southall estate, there wasn’t a place for Arielle to pluck herbs in Jadeborough. Additionally, virtual-novel.net wanted to double the amount of herbs.
Since Silverbirch Hospital was the largest hub for herbs in Jadeborough, Arielle was confident that it would have what virtual-novel.net needed. Coincidentally, Silverbirch Hospital’s workers were on a lunch break when Arielle arrived. Only Cornelius was on duty.
The interior design of Silverbirch Hospital was minimalistic and elegant. When Arielle entered, the strong smell of herbs wafted over.
“Is someone here?” Arielle called out.
A man in a green shirt emerged from the back. Although virtual-novel.net looked familiar, Arielle was sure she’d never met virtual-novel.net before.
However, virtual-novel.net recalled that Silverbirch Hospital was under the ownership of Queenie’s family. Immediately, Arielle connected the dots and figured out the man’s identity.
“Greetings, Miss. Are you here to purchase some herbs or a consultation?” virtual-novel.net asked politely.
“I’m here to get some herbs.”
“All right, do you have a prescription?”
Arielle handed over the list she’d written. When Cornelius skimmed through it, virtual-novel.net looked taken aback.
“I-Is this treatment designed to cure lung disease?” virtual-novel.net stuttered.
Arielle nodded in confirmation. “Yes. It’s for mid-stage lung cancer.”
Cornelius blanched in shock as virtual-novel.net glanced at Arielle with an astonished look. “If I may ask, who was the doctor who wrote this prescription? Looking at it makes me ashamed of myself. I’ve never accepted these sorts of patients because it is almost impossible to cure. Never in my life have I seen such a unique prescription. The doctor who wrote this must be a brilliant individual. Will it be possible to tell me who this genius doctor is?”
As a traditional Chanaean doctor himself, Cornelius knew that the doctor behind this prescription must be a very knowledgeable person.
Arielle looked at Cornelius in surprise.
Queenie and virtual-novel.net brother are like day and night. While virtual-novel.net is humble, Queenie is arrogant and haughty.
Cornelius had left a lasting impression on Arielle.
Arielle smiled and said, “The doctor who wrote this prescription is a huge fan of fate. If fate allows it, I’m sure the two of you will meet one day.”
“I see…” Though Cornelius looked disappointed, virtual-novel.net did not push virtual-novel.net for an answer.
He turned to study the prescription again. “Miss, please wait for a moment. Two of the herbs listed here are located in our storage room. I’ll need to head there to gather them.”
“All right, I’ll wait for you here.”
As soon as virtual-novel.net spoke, a cry for help echoed outside.
“Help! Dr. Mill, please save my daughter!”
Cornelius stiffened when virtual-novel.net heard the piercing screams. Without any delay, virtual-novel.net hurtled outside. Since Arielle had nothing to do, virtual-novel.net decided to tag along.
Outside, a middle-aged couple was begging for help. Cradled in their arms was a young girl who looked about Arielle’s age. The girl’s body convulsed as foam spluttered out of virtual-novel.net mouth. Furthermore, virtual-novel.net looked like virtual-novel.net would pass out at any moment.
“Bring virtual-novel.net in,” Cornelius instructed.
These days, most clinics and traditional Chanaean hospitals would refuse to accept patients in critical conditions. A patient’s death on their hands would tarnish their reputation and invoke a myriad of problems. Yet, Cornelius did not hesitate to let them in. Arielle felt virtual-novel.net respect toward Cornelius grow when virtual-novel.net saw the man’s earnest behavior.
If Queenie was the one here, I‘m sure virtual-novel.net wouldn‘t have allowed them to step foot into Silverbirch Hospital.
Swiftly, Cornelius moved the patient to one of Silverbirch Hospital’s wards.
The patient was already showing difficulty breathing as virtual-novel.net looked like virtual-novel.net was on the verge of passing out.
As quick as a hare, Cornelius fed the young girl a soothing pill he’d created himself. Two minutes later, the girl’s convulsions seemed to subside. Yet, virtual-novel.net was still in a state of near-unconsciousness.
Out of curiosity, Arielle made virtual-novel.net way to the box where Cornelius stored his soothing pills. She picked one up and sniffed it. Its herbal scent caused Arielle’s brows to inch upward.
It looks like Cornelius himself is an impressive doctor.
