Chapter 74: She is My Mother

Beatrice frowned upon hearing Amber's words and was tempted to send her away. However, considering the severity of Sophia's disfigurement and Amber's success in treating it, she had to suppress her irritation.

"Sorry, Miss Reed," Beatrice apologized, "Shonna has become this self-conscious ever since her disfigurement; she refuses to let anyone see her. Just wait a moment, I'll try to persuade her."

Amber nodded, her expression growing increasingly impatient. The room had not been aired out and there was an unpleasant odor; if it weren't for the potential future help from Beatrice, she would have turned around and left immediately. Beatrice approached Shonna and whispered, "Shonna, this Miss Reed is a very talented doctor. You know about Miss Farrell's case; hers was even worse than yours, and she cured her. Let her take a look, and if you're cured, you'll be able to go out with confidence again."

Shonna remained silent, her head buried between her knees.

"You've been out of school for half a year now. Didn't you say you wanted to go to college? If you keep missing school, you won't be able to take the exams this year!" Beatrice mentioned.

At the mention of this, Shonna finally seemed moved. She lifted her head, revealing scars that were quite grotesque, but her eyes were filled with tears. "But I'm so far behind now. Even if I take the exams, I won't be able to get in." "You've been in the top ten of your grade every year. I'll find you a few good tutors to catch up. With your intelligence, you can definitely get in," Beatrice said with patience. Shonna hesitated.

Amber, who was getting impatient, interjected, "Mrs. Woodham, Miss Woodham, perhaps we should reschedule. I'm very busy with my studies and can't afford to waste time."

Beatrice frowned, mindful that she needed Amber's help, and spoke in a more amiable tone, "Please wait a little longer..."

Before she could finish, Shonna stood up, approached Amber, and said softly, "Sorry, Miss Reed, for keeping you waiting. Please, could you examine me?"

Only then did Amber see Shonna's face, which was covered in scars and quite ugly. She instinctively showed a look of disgust, which Shonna caught sight of. The courage Shonna had mustered began to falter. "Sit down, I'll take your pulse," Amber said haughtily.

Shonna obediently sat down.

After checking her pulse, Amber declared, "It's not a big problem. I'll write you a prescription. Take the medicine according to my instructions for three consecutive days, and I'll come back to check after three days." Beatrice, thrilled, asked, "Really? Can Shonna's face be restored to what it was before?"
