As soon as Wendy finished speaking, Jessica immediately stepped forward.
“That’s not what I meant…”
on
Wendy fixed her gaze ois Jessica. “Then what did you mean? Do you want me to treat you?”
Jessica fell silent, unable to find the right words.
Wendy’s lips curved into a sly smile. “I can treat you, but you’ll have to beg me.”
Wendy was making, Jessica beg her.
Jessica’s face drained of color.
Wendy knew Jessica all too well, Jessica had always looked down on her, holding herself in high regard. The revelation that Wendy was Dr. Ceylan was a great blow to Jessica’s pride.
Now, making her lower her head and beg for help was more humiliating than anything–far worse than death
It wasn’t just Jessica who felt the sting, Edith, Lilian, and Trish all felt the discomfort growing inside them, each more uneasy than the last..
Wendy’s piercing eyes glinted with amusement as she looked at them. “Now, you’re the ones who need something from me. When you beg, you have to show some sincerity. Didn’t you teach me that?”
Lilian’s face flushed with anger. “Wendy, watch it!”
Wendy tilted her head slightly. “Of course, you don’t have to beg me. You can just wait for Jessica to die.”
“You’re a doctor, and you’re obligated to save lives! How can you speak like that?” Edith cried.
A doctor, obligated to save lives?
Wendy took two steps closer, stopping right in front of Edith. “Anyone can say that to me, but you don’t have the right to. I’m sure you remember how my father died.”
Edith’s face went pale as she stared at Wendy, her heart pounding. Did Wendy already know?
Wendy took in Edith’s horrified expression, enjoying every moment. She wasn’t in a rush; she was just getting started.
She had all the time in the world to play with these people.
“You wanted to see me, and now you have. The deal stands, Jessica. If you want me to treat you, come and beg me. I’m leaving now.”
With that, Wendy turned and walked away without a care in the world, her stride full of confidence and arrogance. Jessica’s face had turned a deep shade of anger.
Jessica turned to Stanley, her voice desperate. “Stanley…”
Stanley didn’t look at her. He took long strides, moving swiftly to catch up with Wendy.
“Stanley!” Jessica stomped her foot in frustration.
Edith moaned, “Is Wendy really Dr. Ceylan? Oh my god! Wendy is Dr. Ceylan!”
Trish’s face was ashen, shock gripping her tightly. She had always been the most prideful among the Crone

family. She had never imained that Wendy could be Dr. Cean
Meanwhile, Lilian felt like the might choke on her own fury. Even though she had sent Wendy off to the countryside, she never thought Wendy would still turn out remarkable.
Her genes were truly terrifying–something beyond human control!
“Mom, what should we do now? We have to ask Wendy for help! And look–Stanley’s following her!”
Before, Stanley had been like them, thinking Wendy only ll a degree but was just a housewife.
Now that Wendy’s true identity as the miracle doctor had been revealed, it was a glory that would make any girl
stand out.
Every man loves a woman with exceptional talent.
Jessica could feel the intense sense of danger growing inside her. She felt like Stanley was slipping away, like grains of sand slipping through her fingers, no matter how lightly she held on.
Stanley finally caught up to Wendy. “Wendy,”
Wendy stopped and turned to face him. “Is there something you need?”
Stanley hesitated for a moment. “I need to talk to you.”
Wendy raised a delicate eyebrow. “Sorry, but I have a major surgery to perform shortly. I don’t have time. If you need to speak with me, please make an appointment through my assistant.”
