Chapter 1511 Ancient Chanaean Medicine
Glancing at Nico, Arielle was annoyed that the woman flirted with her man.
‘‘That’s her room right there,’‘ informed Melissa with a smile, completely unaware of what was going through Arielle’s mind. ‘‘With her age, she prefers being alone in a quiet place.’‘
Arielle nodded in agreement, for most of her elderly patients back in Chanaea had the same preference. They would rather spend most of their time on their own.
Nico was the first to step inside when Arielle and the others reached Lisa’s room.
‘‘Grandma, Dr. Moore is here to see you. She’s the one who treated you,’‘ announced Nico before she even entered the place.
‘‘Nico’s always been rash like that. I have no idea who she got it from.’‘ Melissa shook her head while chuckling.
Since Arielle would rather just ignore Nico, she decided not to comment on that.
Even though Arielle planned to curry favor with Matthew, she intended to be on an equal footing with the man.
‘‘Come push me now!’‘ ordered Lisa, whose voice remained clear despite her age.
Nico knew that Lisa could not wait to see Arielle, so she hurriedly got behind her grandmother’s wheelchair.
‘‘You must be Dr. Moore,’‘ voiced Lisa with a big smile as she held Arielle’s hand at the entrance of the living room. ‘‘My, my! What a beauty you are! Are you seeing anyone at the moment?’‘
‘‘Mother, Dr. Moore’s a Chanaean. You know she can’t marry into our country, right?’‘ reminded Melissa helplessly.
Lisa had reached an age where she enjoyed playing matchmaker.
‘‘Oh, right!’‘ exclaimed Lisa as she smacked herself on the forehead. ‘‘My memory is getting worse every day. I forgot that you’re a Chanaean.’‘
Then, the elderly woman looked apologetically at Arielle. ‘‘Please excuse my terrible manners, Dr. Moore.’‘
Since Arielle was dressed like a Turlenian, one could be forgiven for making such a mistake.
‘‘It’s fine,’‘ responded Arielle understandingly before checking Lisa’s pulse and scrutinizing her. ‘‘You’re doing well.’‘
‘‘Is this Chanaean medicine?’‘ inquired Lisa curiously.
‘‘It’s ancient Chanaean medicine. Many Chanaeans are well-versed in it,’‘ replied Arielle with a nod.
It was a norm for Chanaeans to be patriots. As such, the woman was filled with pride when she mentioned her home country.
Not only did she feel fortunate to be born a Chanaean, but she was also glad to be one.
‘‘I’d love to see the country that produced such a fine young lady like you,’‘ uttered Lisa with a chuckle.
Even though she had lived over half of her life, Lisa had never left Turlen.
Since she spent most of her life caring for her family and contributing to her country, she longed to see the world someday.
‘‘If you want, you can ask for His Majesty’s permission.’‘ If nothing else, Arielle was confident that she could get Lisa the visa to travel.
A glint of hope flashed across Lisa’s eyes before it quickly disappeared. ‘‘Forget about it. Just look at how old I am now.’‘
Upon hearing that, Arielle dared not continue with the topic.
‘‘Come on. Why don’t we go inside first?’‘ suggested Melissa as she pushed Lisa inside and gestured for the others to follow her. All of a sudden, Melissa widened her eyes in shock.
