Chapter 57
In fact, the herbal ointment was developed by Evelyn based on a formula from an old medical book,
She had come to the ward today specifically to find Albert, hoping to use her exquisite medical skills to cure him and leave a bette Impression on him
Once Evelyn had completely cured Albert, she would be his savior. Even if Russell was unwilling to marry her, she could still become Alber’s goddaughter.
As the White family’s daughter, with the added status of being Albert’s goddaughter, no one in high society would dare look down on her is the future.
Upon thinking of this, Evelyn’s smile became even more radiant.
She carefully opened the herbal ointment she had prepared and said gracefully, “Mr. Briggs, please lie down. I’ll apply the medicine to your leg now
As soon as the herbal ointment was opened, a strong medicinal smell immediately filled the air.
Arya could identify the herbs by their scent. These herbs could indeed treat gout.
However, some of the herbs needed to be used separately, and some were meant to be taken orally, but Evelyn had mixed all the medicines together. Normally, this wouldn’t be a big problem.
This
Unfortunately, there was another herb in the mixture. This herb was of a hot nature. If used alone, it wouldn’t have any adverse effects on the body, but when mixed with the other herbs, it would create a counteractive effect.
However, the final outcome wouldn’t have a significant impact on Albert Briggs’s health. At worst, it might cause some skin allergies.
Therefore, Arya didn’t plan to interfere with Evelyn. She would just let her continue her performance.
While Evelyn was applying the medicine to Albert, Winnie, who had left earlier, suddenly returned.
Winnie first gave Arya a cold, sideways glance, then approached Evelyn with a flattering smile. “Evelyn, I heard that you’ve already been recognized as a model intern in the traditional medicine department and can even make rounds with the chief physician. You’re so amazing.”
Winnie’s family was not poor, but compared to the White family, one of the five major families in Flodes City, there was still a significant gap.
Therefore, she naturally wanted to get on good terms with Evelyn.
Upon hearing Winnie’s praise, Evelyn’s face immediately lit up with a bright smile. “Winnie, I heard that you’re also the best intern in your neurology department. I’m sure you’ll be promoted soon.”
Winnie flattered her. “You flatter me. I’m far behind you. I need to learn a lot from you.”
Saying this, Winnie turned to Albert and ingratiated herself. “Mr. Briggs, Evelyn was already very outstanding during her university years. I believe she can definitely cure your leg.”
Winnie deliberately praised Evelyn in front of Albert, hoping to use Evelyn’s status to get closer to him.
If she could connect with the Briggs family, Winnie might have a chance to enter the high society circle in the future.
Evelyn saw through Winnie’s intentions, but she enjoyed being flattered, so she smiled and said, “Mr. Briggs, you’re a fortunate man. You’ll recover soon.”
Next, the two of them kept trading compliments before Albert, completely ignoring Arya, who was standing by.
Arya didn’t mind these two blowing their own horns. Sooner or later, the higher they brag, the harder they’ll crash.
Just then, a message suddenly popped up on the dark web on her phone. [Ms. Keller, someone is offering 15 million dollars for you to treat their illness. Would you like to take the job?]

Arya didn’t think twice and refused. (No, I won’t take it]
Ever since she returned to the Keller family in Flodes City five years ago, she had decided not to treat patients outside her family.
Firstly, she was worried about hot having enough time to spend with her family. Secondly, she was concerned that exposing her stentity muha da family.
Although Finn already knew her identity, she believed he wasn’t the type to gossip.
The person replied: [The person asking you to come out of retirement is Russell.)
But at that moment, Arya had already exited the dark web app and didn’t see this message.
Evelyn had just finished applying the ointment to Albert Briggs’s leg and asked with a face full of expectation, “Mr. Briggs, does your leg feel any better?
Albert, however, frowned. “Evelyn, why does my leg feel like it’s burning where the ointment is applied?”
Evelyn’s brows furrowed in confusion. ‘Burning pain? How could that be? I bought the old medical book at a high price. The formula in it couldn’t possibly be wrong.
“Albert’s leg is turning red,” Winnie suddenly exclaimed in atarm. “It’s
starting to blister.”
Albert looked down and saw that the areas of his leg where the ointment had been applied were covered in large red rashes. His face, already lined with wrinkles, darkened instantly. “Evelyn, what is going on here?”
Had it not been for the fact that Evelyn had saved him once before, he would have thrown all the ointment right back in her face.
Evelyn, frightened, quickly removed the ointment from the old man’s leg, but the skin where the medicine had been applied was not only red and swollen but also began to peel.
Evelyn became anxious. “Mr. Briggs, it might be because your leg hasn’t moved for too long, so-”
She didn’t even know what excuse to give to answer Albert’s question.
‘The medicine, I clearly prepared and mixed it according to the old medical book, without any mistakes, so why is there a problem?” she thought.
At this moment, Albert was feeling increasing pain in his leg. He scowled and picked up his phone, about to call the dean, when the ward door was suddenly pushed open from the outside again, and an excited voice came in. “Grandpa, I’ve brought back the famous international rheumatology and immunology professor, Jeff.”
Arya lazily raised her eyelids. Russell, dressed in leather, led a middle–aged man in a white coat into the room.
The moment he appeared, Arya was somewhat surprised. ‘It’s actually the rheumatology and immunology expert, Jeff?‘
Five years ago, at an international medical exchange conference abroad, Arya had met Jeff.
She remembered that after the conference, Jeff had approached her, giving her a business card and hoping she could offer him some advice and h medicine.
But she had never contacted him afterward. She hadn’t expected to meet him here.
After entering the ward, Russell noticed there were three young female doctors in the room.
Two of them were standing by his grandfather’s bedside, including Evelyn, whom he detested.
Then he turned his head toward the window. Arya, dressed in a white coat, stood there lazily. She was naturally beautiful, like an angel from a different world.
Even in a white coat, her beauty was not diminished but rather enhanced with an alluring charm.

Knowing that Russell would definitely be angry, she thought it better to apologize first.
“You – “Russell frowned, about to say something, but the medical professor beside him rushed to Arya with a look of detalle Lasta kona zer see you here.”
