“How could this word be so similar to that of the master’s?” Marie wondered aloud.
But how could that be possible?
The master had already become one of the top figures in the world.
How could she have any connection with this chubby little girl in front of her?
Master Alex chuckled self-deprecatingly.
Perhaps it was just an illusion caused by not hearing from that person for too long.
“Master Alex, I’ll go get the medicine first!” Jason didn’t notice anything strange and immediately left the ward with the prescription in hand.
“Master Alex, how do you feel?” Master Lincoln asked cautiously, even though Master Alex did look much better than before.
But he was still worried that something might happen to Master Alex body suddenly.
“I’m doing fine.” Perhaps out of sympathy, Master Alex didn’t make things difficult for Master Lincoln and Madam Lincoln.
Then he turned his head slightly and looked at Marie with a serious expression:
“Marie, you saved my life. From now on, you are my benefactor. If you need any help, don’t hesitate to ask!.” As soon as Master Alex finished speaking, the room fell silent.
Master Lincoln, Madam Lincoln, and Marionette stared at him in .
Could it be true that Marie had really cured Master Alex?
Marionette turned her head slowly and looked at Marie with a deep sense of doubt and unwillingness.
She didn’t know how Marie had done it, but she knew that Marie had earned a huge favor from Master Alex.
Even if Marie wanted to enter the national painting department of the Imperial University in the future, Master Alex could make it happen for her.
Marionette had been trying so hard to keep Marie down and make her a perpetual companion, but now, Marie had the chance to soar again.
And she could do nothing but watch helplessly.
At this moment, she was powerless.
With this thought, Marionette clenched her hands slowly and tightly.
Under the immense force, her nails dug through her skin without any sensation.
With a fierce gaze from Marionette, Marie glanced at her unintentionally and then shook her head to Master Alex, “Treating the sick and saving lives is the duty of a doctor. You don’t have to worry about it.” She didn’t save Master Alex to seek repayment.
When Master Lincoln regained his senses, he heard Marie’s words.
But he could tell that Master Alex was in excellent condition now.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke up, “Master Alex!
I have a small request!” “I have always admired you.
Can you take some time to paint a picture for me as a souvenir?” “Of course, no problem!” Master Alex agreed without hesitation.
Marie cured his long-standing illness, so even if he asked for ten paintings, it wouldn’t be a problem.
Marie looked at her sister, who had tried to stop her from treating Master Alex, but now Master Lincoln was begging for her help because of the cure.
Her eyes suddenly turned cold.
However, she didn’t stop Master Lincoln’s actions, and Marionette’s face grew even uglier upon seeing this.
Just two hours ago, she had hoped to impress her father by possibly obtaining an apprentice’s painting from Master Evans and then crushing Marie under her feet.
Two hours later, her father had obtained a painting from Master Alex himself, which was like an invisible slap in the face.
However, Master Lincoln, who was extremely excited to be able to get a word from Master Alex, and did not notice Marionette’s expression at this time.
Even if he did notice, he probably wouldn’t care too much.
After all, in his eyes, the company’s development was more important than anything else.
Master Alex was in good condition today and immediately had the guards at the door of the ward prepare rice paper and ink for Master Lincoln after agreeing to his request.
Master Lincoln and Madam Lincoln were busy around him, not mentioning the fact that they had just blamed Marie for treating patients recklessly.
“I’m going to the bathroom.” After giving Master Alex the treatment, Marie hadn’t washed her hands yet.
Now that she saw that he was stable, she turned and left the ward.
Master Lincoln and the other two were focused on Master Alex paintings and paid no attention to Marie.
After disinfecting her hands with hand sanitizer in the bathroom, she had just come out when she heard a rush of footsteps in the hallway.
“Excuse me! Please move aside!”
At this moment, several nurses were pushing a stretcher out of a high-end ward, hurrying towards the operating room.
“Xiaoyu!”
“Xiaoyu, hold on!”
“Hold on a little longer!”
A man in a suit followed the stretcher, constantly shouting at the little boy lying on it.
She noticed that the man was Frederick, whom she had met at the scene of the car accident.
However, she had already stopped the bleeding for him that day, so there should be no danger in a normal operation at the hospital.
She frowned in confusion.
Instead of immediately returning to Master Alex ward, she followed the nurses to the operating room.
After the nurses pushed the little boy into the operating room, they closed the door.
The surgical light came on, and Frederick was left outside, pounding the wall in pain with a face full of self-blame.
Marie stepped forward and approached Frederick.
“President Maxton, what’s going on now?”
“Miss Lincoln?”
Frederick was taken aback when he saw Marie, but immediately calmed down and spoke.
“Thank you for saving my son that day!”
“His health has always been poor. Although the surgery after the car accident was very successful, the shock caused his heart disease to relapse,” he explained.
“Does he have congenital heart disease?” Marie asked.
When she had checked the boy’s pulse earlier, she had felt that there were problems with the meridians around his heart, but at the time, stopping the bleeding had been the top priority, so she hadn’t done a thorough examination.
“Yes,” Frederick sighed.
“Little Yu’s mother had congenital heart disease and took a risk to give birth to him. She passed away not long after he was born.”
“At first, we didn’t agree to have this child, but my wife insisted…” Frederick’s voice choked up as he spoke.
Just then, the lights in the operating room suddenly went out, and the doctor walked out.
“Doctor, how is my son?” Frederick quickly stood up and asked.
The doctor shook his head.
“I’m sorry, our medical skills are limited…”
“But we have contacted Dr. Du, a famous miracle doctor in Brooklyn City. He will be here soon.”
Normally, they wouldn’t ask for outside help, but their hospital’s director was out of town, and the Maxton family had been donating to their hospital.
Now that Frederick’s son was in critical condition, they had no choice but to invite Miracle Doctor Dave to come.
Upon hearing this, Frederick’s heart sank.
“Doctor, can you tell me how much longer my son can hold on given his current condition?”
