Chapter 1482: 369: How can she bear this! _1 Chapter 1482: 369: How can she bear this! _1 Viola Thompson?
The mother and daughter furrowed their brows upon hearing this name.
What kind of medical skills could Viola Thompson possess?
Isn't everything she has now just a front?
Norma Augus looked towards Dr. Carter, then spoke up, “Dr. Carter, does my cousin truly have a method to cure my grandmother?”
Dr. Carter nodded, “If we can bring Miss Thompson here, there would at least be a fifty percent chance.”
After all, Viola was known for creating miracles.
She was a medical legend, second only to Suwen.
There is a saying now, 'Suwen in the South, Thompson in the North'.
Norma squinted her eyes, forming her plan, “My cousin is my grandmother's own granddaughter. She would not stand by and do nothing about my grandmother's current predicament. Dr. Carter, please ensure my grandmother's safety. She mustn't suffer any harm! Leave the rest to me. I'll call my cousin right away. If necessary, I'll go to Capital City to seek her personally.”
Hearing this, Phoebe Perryne had a puzzled look.
She didn't understand what Norma was actually planning.
With Viola's mediocre skills, could she really cure Mrs. Perryne?
That's impossible!
Why would Norma pursue such an impossible goal?
Shouldn't saving lives be the priority now?
Dr. Carter adjusted his glasses, looked at Norma, and nodding said: “Miss Augus, don't worry. Though I can't create miracles, I can at least ensure Mrs. Perryne's safety for the next two weeks.”
“Thanks a lot, Dr. Carter.”
“It's my responsibility,” Dr. Carter replied.
Norma squinted her eyes and asked, “Dr. Carter, you mean my grandmother's left with only two weeks?”
Dr. Carter nodded, “Yes.”
Shocked by this news, Phoebe's face turned pale, “Wha, what? Dr. Carter you must be wrong! How is it possible that my mom only has two weeks left!?”
Dr. Carter sighed, “Mrs. Perryne's liver is severely damaged, and it's currently at its limit. To be honest, if she were an ordinary person, she might have already passed away.”
Mrs. Perryne is surviving till now solely through the usage of various expensive medicinal herbs.
Something an ordinary family can't afford.
Upon saying this, Dr. Carter paused, smiling, “But don't worry, with Miss Thompson's intervention, I believe Mrs. Perryne will be alright.”
Fearing that Phoebe would say something more, Norma walked up to Phoebe and held her hand, “Mom, even Dr. Carter has said that my cousin can cure grandmom, you shouldn't worry about it anymore!”
Upon saying this, she turned to Dr. Carter, “Dr. Carter, you've had a long day. Please go and rest in the guest room. We'll contact my cousin immediately.”
“Okay,” Dr. Carter nodded, “I'll be back to check on Mrs. Perryne's condition in an hour's time.”
Dr. Carter turned and left.
Norma then turned to the housekeeper, “My mom and I have things to discuss, you can leave for now.”
“As you wish, Miss Augus. Please call on me whenever you need anything.”
Soon, the room was left with only Phoebe, Norma, and the bedridden Mrs. Perryne.
Phoebe looked up at Norma, asked perplexedly, “What are you really up to, Norma?”
Norma, with a determined look, said crisply, “I'm planning to invite Viola Thompson to South City.”
Phoebe frowned, “You really believe that Viola can cure diseases?”
A glint appeared in Norma's eyes, “Mom, haven't you heard these words?”
“What words?” Phoebe was very confused.
Norma continued, “'Suwen in the South, Thompson in the North', it does imply that Viola has some ability. Otherwise, why would people pass these words around? Entrust grandmother to her, you should feel relieved actually.”
Phoebe squinted her eyes, not understanding more and more what Norma was saying.
The phrase 'Suwen in the South, Thompson in the North' started spreading from Capital City.
Only the Thompson family would know exactly why such words spread.
In this world, there's nothing money can't solve.
If Viola were truly brought here, it would only accelerate Mrs. Perryne's death.
“Norma, you are being unreasonable!”
“Mom, just listen to me,” Norma spoke gently, “Everyone knows that Viola Thompson is a miracle-worker of the Thompson Clan. To them, she is a divine doctor who doesn't refuse any case. If she can't cure grandmother, who do you think will lose face? And her actual abilities will be questioned!”
