From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 198

Kendrick’s brow furrowed ever so slightly. During his illness, a parade of so–called specialists had come knocking, each more self–promoting than the last, but not a single one had any real talent!

Kendrick hadn’t bought into the claims of any of these self–proclaimed medical savants.

Damian continued, “Dad, Ms. Morris brought over a family heirloom remedy. I’m certain it can restore your health.”

At that moment Rebecca gracefully stood up, “Good day, Mr. Wright, I’m Rebecca Morris.”

She hadn’t risen earlier on purpose, a bit of posturing on her part.

After all, as a descendant of the legendary doctor, appearing too eager would surely cheapen her stature, wouldn’t it?

Rebecca had lived two lifetimes and was no longer the naive girl she once was.

Kendrick nodded indifferently, then turned to Damian, “I’ve already found a real doctor for my condition. You may tell Ms. Morris she can leave now.”

“Dad,” Damian, sensing Kendrick’s skepticism, pleaded, “Dad! Trust me, Ms. Morris can cure you!”

Through their conversations, Damian had come to believe that Rebecca’s demeanor and poise were far beyond what one would expect from a teenager.

Therefore, Damian had immense faith in Rebecca.
