Chapter 1377: 345: Huaxi Huaxi: Let’s keep a low profile_5 Chapter 1377: 345: Huaxi Huaxi: Let’s keep a low profile_5 Upon hearing this, Lady Thompson was not pleased.

What did Thompson mean by these words?

Was she questioning her?

Lady Thompson continued, “Vicki, you still do not believe in Doctor Blue!”

Thompson glanced at Lady Thompson, “Grandma, I just felt that you…”

“Enough!” Lady Thompson abruptly interrupted Thompson’s words, continuing: “What if this pill was given by Viola Thompson? Would you still want to test it?”

No, she wouldn’t!

Because she trusted Viola Thompson, more so than her own Grandmother.

Thompson knew that this was not the time for her to argue with Lady Thompson, even if it were in Lady Thompson’s best interests.

Thompson immediately lowered her head, “I’m sorry Grandma, I shouldn’t have doubted Doctor Blue.”

It had come to this.

She was helpless.

Lady Thompson squinted, her emotions slightly eased.

Thompson picked up the bird’s nest soup to one side, “Grandma, let me feed you first.”

“Okay.”

Lady Thompson, who usually had a poor appetite, actually finished a whole bowl of bird’s nests soup.

No other reason.

Just because Doctor Blue had instructed her to build up her strength.

Time passed quickly, and before long it was early morning the next day.

Lady Thompson took out the pill given by Doctor Blue.

Thompson looked at Lady Thompson, still a little worried, “Grandma, don’t you really want to test it?”

“There’s no need,” Lady Thompson continued: “I have experienced so many ups and downs in my life, I have seen all kinds of people. Doctor blue is clearly one who heals the sick and injured.”

This time, she would prove to everyone that she had made the right judgement.

Doctor Blue was not a fraud.

Ava Kamani said, “Indeed, Mom’s judgement has always been accurate. I believe that the pill Doctor Blue gave you can definitely make you feel better.”

The words that pleased Lady Thompson the most right now were these.

Zoe Fedener also nodded in agreement.

Rosalind Rohr, upon receiving Thompson’s gaze, followed, “Mom, but, we can’t contact Doctor Blue anymore.”

A person who was unreachable must have run off with that one billion, no doubt about it.

After all, one billion was enough for an ordinary person to live several lifetimes.

But Lady Thompson did not take this to heart, “Doctor Blue is after all, a Divine Doctor!”

And a Divine Doctor would naturally be elusive.

If a Divine Doctor could easily be contacted, then he would not be called a Divine Doctor.

As Thompson was just about to say something, Lady Thompson stopped her, “Alright, I have my own ideas, no need for any more words.”

With that being said, Lady Thompson swallowed the pill.

Everyone was staring at Lady Thompson without blinking.

“Mom, how do you feel now?”

Just after swallowing the pill, there was no feeling, but soon Lady Thompson distinctly felt a warm current surging above her dantian.

The medicine must be taking effect!

Lady Thompson laughed, “I knew Doctor Blue’s medical skills were extraordinary!”

Upon hearing this, Ava Kamani and Zoe Fedener looked at each other, and they both saw a look of confusion in each other’s eyes.

Thompson asked, “Grandma, you’re feeling good right now?”

Lady Thompson nodded, “Hmm, you guys can leave first, come back tomorrow morning, Doctor Blue has told me to have a good rest after taking the medicine.”

But Thompson was a little worried, “Grandma, how about I stay with you?”

“No need.” Lady Thompson rejected outright.

She wanted to prove to everyone that her choice was not wrong.

Doctor Blue is a Divine Doctor!

Lady Thompson did not need her to stay, so Thompson had no choice but to leave along with her mother and others.

Suddenly, it was midnight.

Lady Thompson woke up in a state of dry mouth and throat, she felt incredibly uncomfortable, as if there was a strong fire burning in her chest.

Lady Thompson tried to call out for help, but she found that she couldn’t make a sound.

What was even more terrifying was that Lady Thompson found that she couldn’t move her hands, and even turning her head, a simple action, she couldn’t do.

Breathing was difficult.

Lady Thompson was horrified, she could feel death gradually approaching her and she could do nothing about it.

The past, like a movie, flashed before her eyes.

And now, Lady Thompson finally realised.

There’s something wrong with the medicine!

There’s also something wrong with Doctor Blue.

She wanted to yell out loud, to let everyone realize their problems, but despite her efforts, not a single syllable escaped her lips.

Regret.

No one knew just how full of regret Lady Thompson was at this moment.

She regretted her authoritarian ways.

Had she not been too arrogant, she wouldn’t have ended up in this predicament.

In the end, she paid the price for her arrogance.

After what felt like forever, Lady Thompson felt her consciousness slowly fading, her body aching more and more, as though she was being run over by a vehicle.

Just die already.

At this moment, Lady Thompson had a single thought.

Because living was too painful.

Even the act of breathing felt as though she was rolling on a bed of nails.

The sky was brightening in no time.

Vicki Thompson walked into Lady Thompson’s room with breakfast.

A second later, there was a scream.

“Granny!”

Rosalind Rohr followed closely behind. Seeing Lady Thompson motionless on the bed, her face turned white, “Mother!”

“Mom, how could you leave us without saying a word!”

Cries echoed through the Thompson Clan’s residence.

“Where is mother’s will?”

“Quickly go get the lawyer. Mother certainly went to him to draft a will!”

Ava Kamani and Zoe Fedener were extremely anxious, wondering who the harpy left the family patriarch’s power to!

Was it Elijah Thompson or Caleb Thompson!

The two had their own calculations in mind.

Ava Kamani was certain the power of the patriarch would belong to Caleb Thompson. After all, Caleb was the eldest legitimate grandson of the Thompson family.

Who else would be given the power if not the eldest legitimate grandson?

But Zoe Fedener believed the power would definitely be left to Elijah Thompson.

After all, Elijah Thompson was smarter than Caleb and had a broader outlook.

Lady Thompson would need to have some brains to give the power directly to Elijah Thompson.

As for the position of the lady of the house, she had already claimed it as her own!

With this thought, Zoe Fedener’s face was full of a superior look.

Among the three of them, Rosalind Rohr was the most calm since no one knew Lady Thompson’s will better than she did.

Neither Ava Kamani nor Zoe Fedener, who had been openly and secretly at odds for years, probably expected to fall at Vicki’s hands in the end, eh?

**

On the other side.

Viola Thompson was preparing her return trip home.

Nathaniel Besian approached with two auction receipts, “Master, how should we handle these two items? Should we just mail them directly home?”

The two items on the auction receipts were the ivory national treasures that Viola Thompson had auctioned off and a set of complete golden threaded clothing.

After all, they were nearly a thousand years old antiques, and Nathaniel Besian hadn’t had any shipping experience before. Suddenly asking him to take these two things back home, he was unnerved.

What if they got damaged on the way?

They’re worth tens of billions!

He couldn’t even afford it if he sold himself!

Viola Thompson’s expression was indifferent, “Hmm, you can mail them directly.”

“And the address?” Nathaniel Besian continued: “Mail them to the Thompson Family Manor?”

Viola Thompson pondered for a moment, then continued: “Write the address as the National Museum.”

The National Museum?

Nathaniel Besian was startled, he even wondered if he had misheard, “Why put this address?”

Could it be Viola Thompson also held a position at the National Museum?

“Because they originally belong to the country.” Viola Thompson’s tone was calm.

From the time Viola Thompson fetched these two national treasures, she never intended to keep them for herself.

Since they were national treasures, they should be seen by more people. Let the entire country and the world see the three thousand years of cultural heritage of Sinian Country.

“Master, do you mean to donate them?” Nathaniel Besian asked uncertainly.

Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “Yes.”

After she spoke, Viola Thompson added: “By the way, Bob, let’s keep a low profile. Remember to make it an anonymous donation.”
