Under the Heiress' Facade

Chapter 310

Pansy recoiled at the sudden coldness radiating from Hera. The sharp glint in her normally gentle eyes sent a shiver down Pansy's spine. It was a powerful command that left no room for argument.

"Do what she says," Christopher instructed.

Having witnessed his father seek Hera's medical expertise for his grandmother before, Christopher trusted her capabilities.

Unwilling but compliant, Pansy lowered Mary to the ground. Hera swiftly unfurled an acupuncture kit, revealing a row of gleaming gold needles.

With practiced ease, she selected one, located the appropriate pressure point, and expertly inserted it. She inserted more into specific locations on Mary's head and hands.

Moments later, Mary stirred and slowly regained consciousness.

Relief washed over Pansy. "Mrs. Ludden Senior, how are you feeling?"

"Grandma..."

Mary mumbled weakly. Her eyes landed on Christopher, and Mary's blood pressure threatened to spike again. "You shameless boy! Are you trying to kill me from shock?!"

Hera reassured Mary, "There's no need to get upset. While sexual orientation may be unchangeable, your health can certainly be improved." Christopher remained silent.

Mary, on the brink of another outburst, resorted to childish petulance. "What's the point of living this long if I can't hold my great-grandchildren in my arms? I might as well be dead!"

Hera's composure faltered for a moment, leaving her speechless.

Christopher quickly stepped in to console her.

Hera's instruction cut through Mary's outburst, "Stop taking the medication for your rheumatoid arthritis when you return home."

She instructed Pansy while handing

her a small, ornate box. "It contains hydrocortisone, which treats the symptoms but not the root cause After a week off the medication, start giving her these pills-two a day, one small one at a time."

Pansy's brows were furrowed together. "How did you know Mrs. Ludden Senior has rheumatoid arthritis?"

Mary momentarily forgot her tantrum and stared in surprise at the box. Not only had Hera diagnosed her condition, but she also identified the key ingredient in her medication!

The acupuncture treatment had demonstrably improved Mary's condition, a stark contrast to the limited effect of Camille's previous efforts. "We'll assess the results after a week. However, future treatments won't be free," Hera said, packing away her needles.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

The moment Hera left, Jane received news from Pansy and rushed to the scene with her entourage.

Disapproving that someone had performed acupuncture on Mary, Jane chastised Christopher and Pansy. Unconvinced of Mary's recovery, she ordered her transfer to Pineview Hospital for a full check-up and contacted Camille.

Camille happened to be at the hospital as she was discussing the 13 Needles of Death with Oscar. She rushed to Mary's ward upon receiving the

news.

A thorough examination by the doctors revealed a surprising turn of events. Not only was Mary in good health overall, but her rheumatoid arthritis had also shown unexpected improvement.

Relieved but mistaking the reason,

Jane attributed this progress to

Camille's recent treatment. She ushered Camille to Mary's bedside and said, "Mary, thanks to Camille's excellent care, your rheumatoid arthritis is improving!" Content

Seizing the opportunity to sing Camille's praises, Jane continued, "Camille, you truly embody the title of a miracle doctor. Your medical skills are phenomenal. You practically save people from serious illnesses."

Surprised by the exceptional outcome of her standard medication regimen, Camille could only offer a smile and a modest reply. "You're too kind, Mrs. Ludden."

The head doctor who received Jane was eager to curry favor and chimed in, "Indeed. Ms. Chime is the one and only miracle doctor! She has a cure for all ailments! There's no illness she can't conquer!"

His words further inflated Camille's ego.

Convinced of their dedication, Jane saw Mary's recovery as a testament to her branch's care. It seemed only natural that the position of the head of the Luddens and Mary's shares would rightfully fall to them.
