Chapter 199
She was waiting for the day Kendrick himself come to Cloudcrest to apologize to her in person!
Rebecca’s lips curled into a smug smile.
At the Wright Manor.
Kendrick furrowed his brow as he examined the pill Rebecca had left behind. “Corrin, throw it away.”
Corrin nodded. “Yes, sir.”
Damian immediately interjected, “Dad! This is a miracle cure from the legendary healer. People would kill for this stuff, and it’s a thoughtful gesture from Ms. Morris. How can you just throw it away?”
Kendrick was sharp as a tack in his day.
It was a shame his eldest son wasn’t quite as bright, unable to uphold the family’s image. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Otherwise, the Wright family wouldn’t be in such disarray every time Kendrick faced a crisis. Kendrick shot him a dismissive glance, “You want to poison me with this unregulated junk?”
The only thing that came with Rebecca’s medicine‘ was the box it was in–no labels, no instructions.
“But, but… Ms. Morris claimed to be a direct descendant of that renowned healer…”
Kendrick scoffed, “Do you believe any lies people tell you? You’re over forty and still can’t think for yourself!”
Damian was too gullible, believing anything anyone told him. If Damian didn’t bear such a striking resemblance to Kendrick in his youth, Kendrick might have doubted he was his own flesh and blood!
Aside from their looks, they had little in common.
Damian, sweating under his father’s scolding, could only watch helplessly as Corrin prepared to toss the medicine away.
Just then, Kendrick turned around, “Hold on, Corrin. Don’t throw it out just yet.”
After all, it was someone else’s property, and it wouldn’t be right to dispose of it so hastily.
What if Rebecca came back asking for it? What would he return to her?
That would surely lead to an argument.
Corrin acknowledged with a nod.
Damian breathed a sigh of relief. Was Kendrick considering taking Rebecca’s medicine after all?
Kena comin
Just as Damian thought Kendrick might be coming around to trusting Rebecca, Kendrick added, “Store it properly, in case Ms. Morris comes back for it.”
Damian wanted to defend Rebecca, but he lacked the courage.
The next day arrived soon enough.
The Wright family’s car was ready and waiting downstairs at the hotel.
Anthea draped her coat over her shoulders. “Sarah, why don’t you come with me? You’ll be bored here by yourself anyway.”
Sarah replied, “You’re off to heal and help, Ann. I don’t know a thing about that. Wouldn’t I just be messin‘ things up?”
Anthea smiled reassuringly, “Not at all! I don’t know a soul there. Having you with me will be a great comfort.”
Sarah thought about it. Anthea was just a young woman; what if someone took advantage of her? It’s better if she went with her and look out for her.
“Alright,” Sarah said, springing from the bed, “I’ll join you, Ann.”
She threw on a down jacket and joined Anthea in the hotel lobb
As they stepped out of the hotel, a sharp–dressed young man approached them, “Excuse me, are you the miraculous healer, Ms. Yeager?” Anthea nodded slightly, “That’s me.”
The young man gestured politely, “Please, this way.”
Anthea took Sarah’s hand, and they moved
ed towards a luxurious sedan.
The emblem on the car’s hood shone brightly against the snow.
Holy smokes! A Rolls–Royce!

Sarah swallowed hard. The wealthy in Capital City sure lived large!
Arriving at Sunnybrook Estate, Sarah was simply astonished.
She had only read about manor castles in stories.
Never did she imagine she’d be whisked away in a Rolls–Royce to a legendary estate….
No one would believe this tale if she told it.
Nervously, Sarah was all senses on alert, careful not to gawk and embarrass Anthea.
Before long, they reached the interior of the estate.
Kendrick was already waiting in the parlor for Anthea.
Hearing the car approach, he stood quickly, “Corrin, let’s go welcome Dr. Yeager.”
Corrin followed Kendrick’s lead.
At the entrance, they saw Anthea arriving.
“Ladies, please come in,” Kendrick urged, welcoming them inside.
