“Of course, I do. If i did not apply dry needling, the consequences would have been worse.” Naomi’s

expression was serious. She straightened her back.

“You b*tch! You have caused big trouble, yet you’re still trying to defend yourself! Mister Hough, Naomi is

not worthy of you!” Clarissa immediately reprimanded Naomi under the guise of justice while trying to

incite Jack

“Doctor Sims, how serious is it because of her dry needling?”

Madam Hough furrowed her brows tightly. She swept Naomi a glance of detest and condescension.

“Serious? Just like she said! It‘s because she did it that is why it‘s not serious! I was just pretending to be

stern to test her.” Doctor Sims sniggered. He looked at Naomi with benevolent eyes full of admiration.

“Calm, stable, and responsible at such a young age. You‘re a good kid. Right, by the way! Such great

technique! Who is your teacher?”

Great technique? Should he not reprimand Naomi?

Lilian and Clarissa were baffled. What they did just now only emphasized Naomi‘s brilliance.

“You‘re very kind, Doctor Sims. I‘ve only learned from my mother for a short while. My skills are not

great. The fact that I did not mess up is already a miracle.” Naomi smiled humbly, yet her words had

subtext hidden in them.

Lilian and Clarissa were there, Naomi could not say much. Thankfully, Doctor Sims was a smart person,

he understood the meaning behind her words.

“Your mother must be a

remarkable person. If you‘re planning on doing medicine in the future, I‘m sure you‘ll be great for it!”

“My dream is to get into the Royal Medical School!” Looking at Doctor Sims‘ hopeful eyes,

Naomi could no longer hold back, she told him her dream school.

“Is that so? I‘m looking forward to you!” Doctor Sims immediately smiled delightedly.

“My friend, if you’re free, you can come here often. We can exchange ideas.”

When they heard what Doctor Sims said, everyone including the doctors was stunned! Jack also raised

his eyebrows in surprise. He looked at Naomi meaningfully.

Doctor Sims was not only a giant in the medical industry in Gin City, he was almost revered as a saint

in the entirety of Hostroy.

That day, he lowered himself and called Naomi his friend. He even invited her to exchange ideas!

“I would love that!” Upon hearing what Doctor Sims said, Naomi instantly felt overwhelmed by his favor.

“Doctor Sims, what was the reason behind Old Mister Hough‘s sudden illness this time?” At that moment,

Madam Hough asked about Old Mister Hough‘s condition with concern.

“Oh, I was just about to remind you all.”

At the mention of that, Doctor Sims’ expressions were once again extremely serious.

He said with a reprimanding tone, “Old Mister Hough is allergic to many things, especially peanuts. I

have already got my staff to strictly control his diet. How could you all just let him have anything?”

“We didn‘t, it‘s just that today…” Madam Hough looked at Lilian and Clarissa.

“W-We…we were just being kind.” Lilian and Clarissa were instantly scared half to death. They trembled

violently and stammered.

“Thank you for your kindness, but the Houghs cannot accept it.” Madam Hough said with a sneer. She

instructed the bodyguards, “Please send them off. In the future, thoroughly check the visitors. Do not let

any unrelated people in!”

“Yes, Ma’am!” The bodyguards immediately rushed in.

Before Clarissa and Lilian could explain themselves, they were wretchedly dragged out.

“Jack, I have something to say to you.”

Madam Hough swept Naomi a worrying glance before looking at Jack meaningfully. Even though Naomi

rescued Old Mister Hough, the indecent photos have left a bad impression on her mind.

“Hmm.” Jack nodded. He turned around and threw the keys to Naomi.

“Wait for me downstairs.”

“Okay!” Naomi gestured an okay sign, turned around, and left the ward.

Outside the ward, Madam Hough looked at Jack seriously.

“Tell me, are you marrying that girl just to deal with the people from Royal City, or have

you really fallen in love with her?”

“This is my business,” Jack said vaguely with a sharp expression. Before he solved the issue, he could no

Madam Hough‘s expressions turned even more serious

upon hearing what Jack said. “If you‘re just putting on an act, I‘ll let you be, but you cannot fall for that girl

“Why?” Jack raised his eyebrows. It was rare to see his mother so agitated.

“Don’t ask me why!” A hint of secrecy flashed across Madam Hough‘s face.

“Anyway, you can be together with whoever you want, except her!”

“Mother, do you know something about Naomi?” “I‘ll tell you in the future!”
