The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 420 She Promised to Cure Her

Marcus was now here serving as the miracle doctor's assistant, but Laura didn't dare to acknowledge him. She felt an ache deep in her heart.

For so many years, they had searched far and wide for a cure, visiting countless places, yet no one had been able to save her.

Whenever they heard of someone who could treat rare illnesses, Wesley and Laura would rush there immediately.

Because of the peculiar nature of her condition, they had been swindled out of money more times than they could count, and Laura had suffered tremendously.

This time, they had found a way to contact Elim's assistant through Charles. Elim was a renowned medical genius. If she could cure Charles, then maybe, just maybe, she could cure Laura too.

Figuring that after so many years, there was nothing left to lose, they decided to take a gamble. What if Elim really could heal her?

Thus, Wesley and Laura had gone to great lengths and spared no effort in making contact with Elim's assistant.

Fortunately, their persistence paid off-Elim agreed to treat her.

Charles never told Marcus about recommending Elim as he wanted to keep this from Marcus, nor did he let him know the real reason his parents had been absent all these years.

Laura had been afraid of passing her illness to her child, worried that he would be terrified of her. Through it all, Wesley never left her side. She lived in fear every moment of every day that Wesley would wake up and be just like her.

Thankfully, he had remained unharmed.

"Doctor, I beg of you. Please save me."

Laura dared not approach Natalie, yet her desperation for a cure was undeniable.

She feared harming others, yet longed to be saved. That contradiction tore at her, leaving her uncertain if she should let Natalie come closer.

"I will cure you." Natalie spoke slowly. "I promise I will find a way to heal you, no matter what it takes and how much time it requires."

Laura's eyes widened as tears streamed down her face. "That's wonderful... That's
