Chapter 1027

Renee knew little about The Albus Order, but she heard that it was a mysterious organization that enjoyed a strangely high status in the medical world.

Many patients who failed to be cured by conventional medical science would recover at last as long as they gained the treatment from The Albus Order.

Besides, the leader of The Albus Order generally would not appear. If he did, it would be an extraordinary case. He was best at snatching back souls from the Grim Reaper. His exceptional medical skills could only be explained with metaphysics.

It was rumored that the leader of The Albus Order would not easily treat a patient. He did not even take in disciples or ask about worldly affairs. He was even said to be no longer alive.

Unexpectedly, Margaret’s biological father was such a famous and magical figure. Well, what a great coincidence!

“Margaret, you’re very awesome. Your father is so excellent. No wonder your medical skills are so exceptional. It’s a waste of your talent to let you be my subordinate all this while. I’m sure you’ll inherit The Albus Order in the future, right?”

Renee looked at Margaret in admiration as if she was looking up to an outstanding physician descended from heaven.

At the same time, she sighed secretly for wasting such a great talent. She made the daughter of an exceptional physician be her servant for so many years and deal with nothing but trifles. What a sin!

However, Margaret appeared fearful. She held Renee’s hand and said agitatedly, “Miss Everheart, what do you mean? Did I do something bad? Why are you trying to drive me away? Please don’t drive me away. Madam Everheart saved my family. Grandpa told me since I was young that my mission is to protect the Everhearts. I’m used to taking care of you. If you want to get rid of me, I… I can only kill myself as a form of apology.”

“Uhh, you got me wrong, Margaret. I feel that you must have a more important mission, given your status as the daughter of an exceptional physician. It’s a waste of your talent to make you take care of Adie, Abby, and me. At the end of the day, you’ll have to inherit your father’s business as well as The Albus Order. So, your life will be worth living.”

“That’s not true.”

Margaret said resolutely, “He and I are different. He’s been driven out of the Middleton family. So, regardless of how big his organization grows and how high a status it enjoys in the world, it has nothing to do with me. I’ve cut off my relationship with him forty years ago. I don’t see him as my father, and I never want to see him again.”

“Margaret, don’t be mad.”

It was the first time she was seeing the gentle and kind Margaret get so angry. Her aloofness made it seem as if she was not talking about her father but her sworn enemy. So, Renee naturally did not force Margaret anymore. She hurriedly comforted her instead. “I want you to stay with my kids and me for the rest of our lives if you don’t want to leave. I’ve long regarded you as my closest family.”

“Miss Ren, thank you. My family was once glorious, but I’m the only one left now. My fate is almost the same as yours, but… the person who nearly exterminated my family was none other than my own father. So, I vowed never to contact him or have anything to do with him for the rest of my life!”

When Margaret reached that point, she revealed a painful expression. Her slightly aging body shuddered slightly.

However, Renee was filled with more shock. “Exterminate?”

“Yes, extermination. Even our dogs got implicated.”

Margaret nodded and didn’t want to recall much. She sobbed and said, “I don’t want to mention this affair again because it tortured me for too many years. Miss Everheart, I hope you can understand.”

“Of course!”

Renee knew more than anyone else how excruciating and desperate it was to see one’s family getting ruined before their own eyes. Margaret hid that scar for almost forty years. The wound had stopped hurting so bad, and if Renee wanted to expose it again, it would be too cruel.
