A Replacement Bride

Chapter 57

"Okay, then. Are you going out?" Jorge, who had a plan in mind, asked absentmindedly upon seeing that Katherine was dressed up.

"Yup. Since I haven't been back for some years now, I'm meeting up with some friends." She made up a simple excuse.

Not really concerning her whereabouts, Jorge waved his hand at her.

After exiting the front gate, Katherine's smile disappeared and she did not ask Cornells' chauffeur to send her. Instead, she went out of the residential area and hailed a cab.

At Ben's clinic, the wound on Keith's face was already fully healed to the point where no scarring could be seen. Not only that, his skin looked in better condition than before.

Ben kept encircling Keith, in awe that the ointment's effects were even better than he expected.

The wound on Keith's face would take at least half a month with the best anti-swelling ointment in the market to heal up. Also, even that alone could not ensure that scars would disappear.

However, Katherine's ointment only took three days to basically heal the wound up with no hint of scarring.

"About your ointment…" Ben's gaze was directed at the medicine on the bedside table with signs of impulse.

If he got even the slightest of the ointment's sample and analyzed it, not only would it be priceless, just the healing ability of external wounds itself would make the entire armies fight tooth and nail over it.

This is what Joaquin needs right now.

"It's mine!" Keith took the ointment and held it alertly, glaring fiercely at Ben.

This made the corners of Ben's mouth twitch.

This brat is the same as his sister. They are not cute at all!

"It's not that I want to take it. I just want to take a tinsy bit to analyze it. Could you…"

Even though Ben was cursing him inside, he knew that he needed to get the formula, so he asked in humility once again.

Keith was protecting the ointment as if it were
