Chapter 46 Pay It as It Lays

“Nah, you don’t have to retire. Just give me some medicine.” A light flashed in Elspeth’s eyes, and she smiled lightly.

The doctor was a well-known doctor in this hospital. So, when he heard that she wanted medicine, he frowned in confusion. “What do you want it for?”

“I have my reasons. Just say if you want to give it or not.”

The doctor’s eyes darted around as he thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Elspeth smiled in satisfaction as she took out a porcelain-white bottle from her pocket. The whole bottle was crystal clear with a slight blue tint.

She opened the bottle, poured the emerald green medicinal ointment onto Callum’s back, and gently rubbed it. A cold sensation spread across his body, and he instantly felt the burning sensation on his back lessen significantly.

“I’ll apply the ointment to you once a day from now on, and you’ll recover after a week.”

“A week?!” The doctor’s eyes widened in disbelief and bewilderment. “Impossible! It is impossible for a skin transplant to recover and be as good as new in a week.”

Elspeth closed the bottle cap and put it back into her pocket. “Of course the scar won’t fully be gone. That would be far too unrealistic. It needs long-term treatment. It is good enough if he can recover 70% to 80%.”

“Alright. I’ll wait and see the exact result after seven days.”

“Of course.” She raised her chin proudly.

After the doctor packed up his things and left, Callum stared at her deeply and asked, “Why did you make that bet with him?”

Although he knew that she was unpredictable, there was nothing she could do to treat large-scale burn scars except for skin grafting. Could the magical ointment grow new flesh? No, that was ridiculous.

“Because I have the confidence to win,” she said, utterly self-assured, and her eyes shone brightly. She seemed to be fearless.
