Chapter 1407 A Pretty Influential Figure
Never had Arielle expected that Sonia actually sought her out to speak about that matter.
Hmm? Could it be that someone is blackmailing her? But then, she doesnât seem the kind of person
whoâd cry just because of that. What exactly happened that an arrogant girl like her would shed tears
before me, a teacher she disliked? Anyhow, I canât think of any other possibility besides that.
âIâve never taken that matter to heart in the first place.â After saying that, she inquired, âIs someone
blackmailing you? If so, just tell me boldly without any reservations. Iâll go and seek the other party out.â
However, Sonia shook her head. âNo, no one is blackmailing me.â
âThen, why are you doing this?â
âMs. Moore, my grandpa is critically ill. I just received news that the doctors allowed him to be brought
home, for thereâs no more hope for him.â When Sonia had finished saying that in a choked voice, she
gazed at Arielle hopefully. âCould you please go and check on him? Iâll give up if thereâs really no hope
for him.â
Although she was the little princess in her family, her parents were busy with their work and careers. As
such, she grew up with her grandparents since young and had an exceedingly close relationship with
them. Verily, she couldnât accept the fact that her grandfather was going to depart this life.
The instant Arielle heard that, she didnât bother playing the waiting game. Time waited for no one, and
a delay of a few minutes could mean missing the golden hour of treatment, causing someone who
could initially be saved to lose his life.
âAfter you,â she uttered solemnly.
Knowing that she had agreed to go and save her grandfather, Sonia immediately took Arielle to the
hospital without even wiping off her tears. On the way there, Arielle sent Kristoff a text to inform him of
the situation on her side. That aside, she also told Sonia to inform her family to talk with the doctor as
she wanted to have a look at the patient as soon as she arrived to have a better understanding of the
patientâs condition.
Sonia didnât dare to tarry for a single heartbeat, promptly giving her father a call and telling him about
Arielleâs request. Naturally, her father didnât agree at first. He found it incredulous to have a random
person treat his father.
Therefore, she told him about Arielle being the teacher from Chanaea whom Aaron invited over. No
sooner had her father heard that than he agreed to talk to the doctor without even thinking about it. In
his opinion, someone whom the prince himself invited over must have exceptional medical skills.
Opportunity seldom knocked twice, so he couldnât possibly pass up the opportunity to save his fatherâs
life.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Arielle changed into a surgical gown. She swiftly scanned through Soniaâs
grandfatherâs medical report with her head lowered before going to the hospital room to have a look at
the patientâs condition.
âPrepare for an operation,â she ordered the attending doctor beside her in a somber voice.
Soniaâs grandfather had a cerebral hemorrhage. It had just been two hours since he was taken to the
hospital, so it was fortunately still within the golden hour for an operation. After undergoing the
operation, he could still be saved.
No wonder both my father and Aaron chose medicine when they went to Chanaea to study. Honestly
speaking, Turlenâs medical treatment standard is really quite dismal. Despite having advanced
technology and equipment, their medical skills in rendering treatment are truly flabbergasting.
In truth, the attending doctor was rather disdainful.
Thereâs no hope for this patient. Even if one wants to treat him, one must have top-notch medical skills.
As far as our countryâs medical treatment standard is concerned, having such a condition is equivalent
to a death sentence unless the patient goes abroad for treatment. However, that requires the kingâs
stamp of approval and layer upon layer of special approval. Thus, itâs extremely difficult to obtain that
opportunity.
Nonetheless, he didnât dare voice that. This patient is a pretty influential figure, so if this Chanaean
woman fails to save him, sheâll be in hot water!
Despite the contempt within him, he still gave it his all while preparing for the operation. After the
patient was wheeled into the operating theater, Arielle started performing the operation.
The attending doctor was scornful toward her in the beginning, but following a brief observation, his
eyes lit up and grew increasingly brighter. His previous derision toward her turned into respect and
admiration.
