She was shady. Nonetheless, the patient’s current circumstance compelled them to invite her over.
“Can you please show me to the patient?” Janet was straightforward, as she didn’t want to waste her time.
Instantly, Sheldon’s figure stiffened. His lips curved upward and he let out a low chuckle. “Isn’t he sitting right across from you now?”
Janet’s eyes gleamed slightly and she looked extremely wicked. “You?”
“Who else do you think it is?”
Janet held back her smile at his words. Suddenly, she seemed like a different person. “Hurry up and bring me there. Stop wasting my time!”
Noticing her blunt reaction, Sheldon gave up acting secretive. He walked past Janet to show her the way. “Over here, please!”
Janet and Lee got up from the sofa and followed him up the stairs. The corridor on the second floor was decorated with famous paintings and blue-and-white porcelain pots, which seemed to be of great value. No wonder the Fuller Family is willing to spend more than a billion to find me.
There were a lot of people standing outside one of the rooms. Janet’s phoenix eyes gleamed at the sight. If she wasn’t mistaken, the patient was inside that room. Sure enough, Sheldon brought Janet and Lee into the room.
The room was also crowded with people. Including those who were outside the room, all of them were doctors in white coats. They came from different age groups: there were younger ones, middle-aged ones, and older ones.
Someone amongst the crowd caught Janet’s attention. Fixing her eyes on that person, she found out that he was Ed Brown from the Western Medical Research Institute.
As for now, there were two major Medical Research Institutes in Markovia. One specialized in Western medicine and the other one specialized in traditional medicine. Unlike Ed, Janet was in the Traditional Medical Research Institute. It can be said that the two research institutes were quite divergent. At least both traditional medicine and Western medicine were internationally recognized as the opposite of one another in essence.
Stepping forward, Sheldon took the initiative to introduce Janet to Ed. “Dr. Brown, this is Miss Sandra.”
After he said that, everyone at the scene knitted their brows. Although the girl standing in front of them was wearing a face mask and a hat, they could still guess her age based on the way she dressed up. Her outfit was normcore, but she was probably around twenty-five years old. They had not expected that the famous Doctor Sandra was only in her twenties!
“Huh, the Divine Doctor is so young?”
“She looks like she’s only in her twenties. She’s probably been in the industry for a year or two at most!”
“That’s right. How did she become a divine doctor in such a short time?”
Unlike the others, Ed wasn’t surprised at all. He knew Sandra. He had already found out that the Fuller Family had offered Sandra a handsome price to visit a few days ago. Nevertheless, he didn’t expect Sheldon to act so quickly. Still, it was true that Old Master Fuller’s condition couldn’t be dragged on anymore. If his illness was cured by Sandra first, then Western medicine would be a big step behind traditional medicine again.
The thought of that got Ed’s nerves tensed up. Nonetheless, ALS had no cure worldwide. Thus, he also didn’t believe that traditional medicine would be able to treat the illness. Glancing at Janet, he showed no emotion and his voice was distant. “Ed Brown.”
Janet arched her brows at his reaction. “Sandra.”
The meeting between traditional medicine and Western medicine was relatively tense. In the end, Lee had to come forward and change the subject. “Mr. Fuller, can you please let Sandra take a look at Old Master Fuller’s condition?”
“Sure!” Sheldon stared at Janet before he went on, “Miss Sandra, do you need us to leave the room?”
Nodding, Janet said faintly, “Those who can’t be helpful please wait outside.”
Immediately, Sheldon dismissed the servants and the nurses in the room, leaving only a few doctors who usually took care of his father.
