Chapter 958

A flicker of resistance flashed across Nyla’s face, but it quickly faded. She obediently handed over her freshly earned paycheck to Camilla, who grinned as she began counting.

Once she finished, her eyes lit up with delight, “100 grand? Nyla, does Moonlit Apothecary really pay you this much?”

Nyla lowered her voice. “Dr. Lloyd gave it to me. He’s a really kind person… he takes good care of me.”

Camilla turned to Andrew, eyeing him with uncertainty. Before stepping inside, she had spoken poorly of Moonlit Apothecary, though it had only been out of jealousy.

In reality, Moonlit Apothecary was one of the most well–known establishments in Jayrodale, with a miracle doctor treating patients. Wealthy and powerful families flocked here in droves.

Camilla’s expression quickly shifted as she put on a flattering smile. “You must be the owner of Moonlit Apothecary. Nyla works under you, so feel free to use her however you see fit–hard labor, long hours, whatever.”

She chuckled, her voice syrupy sweet. “Just as long as you keep being generous and paying her well every month, Dr. Lloyd!”
