Chapter 404: Chapter 404

Not too long ago, Jennifer was struck with the C30 virus, a fatal disease said to be incurable worldwide.

It was Rose who saved her.

At that time, Louisa hadn’t connected the dots between her daughter and the infamous Dr. Bell. After all, rumors had it that Dr. Bell was a man!

"No wonder Jennifer called you a mysterious treasure. How come you’re so amazing, skilled at everything!" Louisa, brimming with excitement, cupped her daughter’s face, praising, "If your grandparents knew that you cured their illness, they’d be even more surprised and proud than I am!"

Who would have thought Rose could be so outstanding in every way?

Not to mention the McMillian family—if the Collins family were to encounter such an exceptional daughter-in-law, they’d be over the moon!

Aiden couldn’t help but peek at Ms. Rose through the rearview mirror, recalling the first time he drove her to the Harris family. She had effortlessly reattached a fallen car door. Ms. Rose seemed to be competent at everything, which made her quite extraordinary.

"Oh, by the way, take a look at this data."

The daily diagnostic data and doctor’s reports for the elderly couple were updated in a software backend for Kenneth and Louisa to check at any time.

Louisa had noticed the data was gradually improving over the past few days, but she couldn’t understand many of the professional terms and had to show them to Rosemary.

After reading them, Rosemary smiled subtly, "Grandpa will wake up soon."

"Really?" Louisa was amazed that her daughter had read through the convoluted medical jargon and data reports in less than a minute. And the best part? Rosemary’s grandpa would wake up soon?

That was wonderful news!

"In a day or two."

Upon hearing this, Louisa was overjoyed, "That’s fantastic. I need to tell your father this good news!"

Before long, their car pulled into the private parking garage of Hatikvah Hospital, a high-end private facility owned by the Collins family, where the elderly couple had been convalescing.

As soon as Rosemary stepped out, she saw another vehicle from their house approaching. The people getting out were Kenneth and Serena.

Serena greeted her politely, explaining softly, "Dad was dealing with business near Summerfield College, and when he heard that Grandma woke up, he picked me up to come over."

Kenneth, dizzy with excitement, asked, "Honey, you just mentioned in the WhatsApp group that Dad will wake up in a day or two. Did that renowned doctor say that? Are you sure?"

"Before we talk about that, I have a secret to tell you!" Louisa, as if sharing a shocking revelation, said enthusiastically, "Actually, Rose is Dr. Bell!"

"Dr. Bell?"

"Surprising, isn’t it? Over these three months, the one providing treatment plans and expensive medicines for Dad and Mom—the ’doctor friend’ we’ve been talking about—is Rose!" As Louisa revealed this, she put an arm around Rosemary’s shoulder, praising, "Who would have thought she was so modest?"

Kenneth stared at his daughter in shock. "Rose, you treated Grandpa and Grandma’s illness?"

Rosemary nodded. "I didn’t say it before because I didn’t want you to worry."

After all, a teenage girl using advanced medical knowledge to save her critically ill grandparents would naturally raise concerns.

Serena, standing to the side, turned pale. She could hardly believe it, her fists clenching unconsciously.

She knew Rosemary was somewhat versed in medicine, but Dr. Bell?

Dr. Bell was a legendary figure in the medical world!

The last time Rosemary had saved Grandma with an injection, Serena had mocked her for "copying techniques from random medical books."

Now, she realized how foolish she had been.

"If Rosemary is Dr. Bell... why did she attend a mediocre school like Westerly College?"

Then it hit her—Rosemary wasn’t there to study. She was there to conduct experiments.

Serena’s previous mockery now felt like a slap in her own face.

"Thank goodness I stopped Martha from drugging her," she thought, shuddering. Had they gone through with it, they’d have been exiled long ago.

But a burning resentment still flickered in her chest.

How could Rosemary be this untouchable?

Kenneth noticed Serena’s dazed expression and called out, "Serena? Serena?"

She snapped back to reality, forcing a smile. "I just didn’t expect Grandma to wake up so soon. I’m too excited... and surprised. I didn’t expect my sister to be Dr. Bell. She’s truly exceptional."

Kenneth nodded. "The Collins family is lucky to have such a treasure return." Then, catching himself, he quickly added, "Not that you’re any less talented, Serena. Among your peers, you’re outstanding."

Serena chuckled awkwardly.

Outstanding?

Compared to Rosemary, she was nothing.

Louisa and Rosemary arrived at the 22nd floor, a private ward reserved exclusively for the Collins family.

The head nurse greeted them respectfully. "Mrs. Collins, Ms. Collins, the old lady has woken up. She’s in her room and doing quite well."

Serena, stepping out of the elevator, flinched at the title "Ms. Collins" being used for Rosemary.

Once, she had been the only Ms. Collins in everyone’s eyes.

Now, things had changed.

The nurse, noticing Serena, quickly added, "Ms. Collins," but the damage was done.

Just then, Julie, Grandma’s caretaker, hurried out. Seeing Rosemary, her demeanor shifted to deep respect—warmer than ever before.

The last time Rosemary had made an impromptu medical intervention, Julie had doubted her skills. But after witnessing her successfully save her grandmother, Julie had a complete change of heart, admiring Rosemary’s medical prowess.

When Julie met Serena, however, she wasn’t as enthusiastic, merely greeting her politely without the "admiration" and "appreciation" she showed Rosemary.

Serena felt upset again, feeling that Julie was looking down on her, treating her like an undercooked hamburger.

Julie had been dispatched by the old lady to pick them up. On the phone earlier, Kenneth had mentioned to the old lady that there was a child who had been lost but had returned to the family a few months ago and would be brought to meet everyone soon.

Upon hearing this, Cornelia had instructed Julie to pick them up.
