Chapter 235
“I won’t accept it!”
Jenny screamed, completely breaking down. How would she be any different from a broken person in the future?
Jordan stayed silent.
They had consulted numerous doctors over this period, and most had recommended amputation. Only Selene claimed she could heal Jenny’s hand. But if she couldn’t exert force afterwards, wouldn’t that leave her incapacitated?
“Dad, what brings you here?” Kelvin suddenly called out towards the entrance, his face paling a bit as Grandpa Josiah slowly walked in.
The Bryant family had a long history of loyalty and service, in the military and in politics, but Jordan was the exception. Always inclined towards the unconventional, he had fallen out with his family over it.
Years ago, Grandpa Josiah had forbidden any mention of him within the Bryant household. Kelvin had initially resolved to keep out of their affairs but couldn’t bring himself to abandon his brother’s family completely, eventually bringing them to the guesthouse.
Jordan hadn’t expected Josiah to come, visibly flustered and frightened.
“You thought you could hide it from me?” Grandpa Josiah’s piercing gaze swept over, his eyes narrowing, a sharp glint within.
“Dad! I’m really sorry, but now I’m truly out of options. Look at your granddaughters, they’re suffering! I may be a mess, but the kids are
innocent!”
“I have no son, nor do I have these granddaughters. They were good girls, led astray by your teachings. Look how defiant and willful they are, a far cry from the Bryant family’s spirit!”
Jordan was scolded into silence. Even though Grandpa Josiah harbored resentment towards his son, he was, after all, an old man and couldn’t help but feel a familial bond. If he had truly hardened his heart, his son wouldn’t even be allowed through the door.
“How are they doing?” Grandpa Josiah sighed internally and inquired about Jenny and Luna’s condition.
Kelvin repeated what Selene had said earlier. Hearing this, Grandpa Josiah also frowned.
“Dad, you have extensive connections. Can you find a renowned doctor to save Jenny and Luna?” Jordan bit the bullet and spoke. Selene, though young, had already outshone many renowned doctors. If even she was at a loss…
Grandpa Josiah suddenly thought of the young woman who had saved him. He said gravely, “Kelvin, go to the Irving family, and bring Flora here.”
Selene’s expression changed slightly. Was Flora the first person Grandpa Josiah thought of? Could Flora’s medical skills really surpass hers?
“Dad, you want me to fetch that girl?” Kelvin’s expression was complex. In his view, Flora was too young and relatively unknown. If even Selene was helpless, could she make any difference?
“Do as I say.” Grandpa Josiah was running out of patience, his tone harsh.
Grandpa Josiah appeared angered, so Kelvin didn’t dare delay any further and hurried to the Irving family to invite Flora.
At the Irving household, Raul, Henrik, and Flora were having dinner when Kelvin arrived, surprising them.
“Flora knows some medicine, but she’s no expert. If so many doctors couldn’t do anything, Flora is even less likely to help.” After
hearing the reason for Kelvin’s visit, Raul was hesitant to let Flora get involved. The situation must be dire if so many doctors had failed. If Flora managed to cure them, it would be a good thing, but what if she couldn’t?
