Female Novel
Chapter 1043
Layla expertly placed her slender fingers on Stefan’s wrist, checking his pulse. After a few seconds, herdelicate features wrinkled in concentration.
“What’s wrong? Is my son’s condition serious?” Francine stood beside her, feeling worried seeingLayla’s expression.
After around a minute, Layla finally moved her hand away, and gave a long sigh. “Master Hunt’s pulseis very chaotic, it was weak yet as fast as a rushing river. It seems like a typical case of cerebralhemorrhage. It’s like it has recently been damaged or been through trauma. The situation is dire.”
“Th… The brain has been damaged?” Francine looked at Stefan with a heavy heart, unable to processwhat her darling son had gone through.
Overwhelmed with guilt, Seraphina snarled at Layla, “You immature child! How dare you say suchthings when medical experts just reported that Stefan’s body was in stable condition? Why are youscaring us with all this talk of cerebral hemorrhage? Are you cursing him?”
Despite looking young, Layla was calm and composed. “Well, this is what I diagnosed from theperspective of a traditional doctor. If you believe that it is incorrect, Miss Murphy, please feel free toswitch hospitals and have another doctor do a full body checkup on Master Hunt. I believe that theresults will be fair then.”
“Easy for you to say! Stefan’s body hasn’t healed yet, and he’s only just gotten better! If he switcheshospitals now, he’ll get even worse!” Seraphina could not allow Stefan to switch hospitals, at least notuntil the damage in his brain had healed. Otherwise, the things Jovan and her had done would beexposed, and they would be doomed.
“Miss Murphy, please believe in my skills. Master Hunt’s pulse really is very unusual. Even if we don’tswitch hospitals, surely you would accept a traditional doctor’s methods?” Layla’s words made
complete sense, which proved her right to be there. It also made it impossible for Seraphina to refuse,since it would seem like she was making a fuss again.
Seraphina’s mind raced to find a way out of this. “Oh, I remember something. Last night, Stefan dranka cup of medicinal tea! Could it be that the tea had some issues that caused his stable condition tochange?”
“That could be the case.” Layla nodded. “If I could see the recipe for the tea, it would help.”
“The recipe… Oh yes, there was a recipe!” Seraphina walked over to the trash can, and bent down toretrieve the paper she had crumpled up earlier. She then handed it to Layla.
“If you really are so renowned, then see if there’s anything wrong with this medicinal tea… but I haveno doubt that it must be the tea that caused it. How else could a perfectly healthy person suddenly getworse after merely drinking medicinal tea?”
Layla took the paper and started to read through it carefully before her expression turned into one ofshock. “Wh…Who gave you this recipe?”novelbin
“I was right, wasn’t I? It was all the tea’s fault!” Seraphina cried out in triumph.
She thought to herself, ‘Hmph, I should have known that Everheart would not have left anything usefulin the recipe for that medicinal tea. Good, now I can manipulate them with ease.’
“What’s wrong with the instructions?” Stefan, who had been quiet the entire time, asked in a frostytone, his expression dark.
“To answer your question, Master Hunt, there is something wrong with this recipe… It’s simply too goodto be true! Each medicinal ingredient in it is nothing special individually, but when combined, they havemiraculous effects. It must be the work of a genius doctor!”
