Rosalie came back to her senses and glanced over her before looked toward Andrius who was at the
side.
Andrius managed to sense the awkwardness between the two and walked toward Rosalie as if he
knew nothing, blocking Wendy‘s sight. “Dr. Jacobs, my grandpa is waiting for you upstairs. Shall we?”
Rosalie nodded gently.
Adrius greeted Wendy on the sofa and brought Rosalie upstairs.
Just as the two reached the start of the staircase, Wendy‘s voice came from behind. “I heard that
Grandpa Quirke‘s health condition has improved because of Miss Jacobs‘ treatment. I also wanted to
pay him a visit and take a look at how Miss Jacobs does her job.”
That being said, she followed behind them as if it was nothing. Rosalie frowned slightly, but because
Andrius did not comment further, she had no choice but just to take it as if Wendy was not there.
Under Rosalie‘s treatment, Old Master Quirke had recovered a lot. He had even moved out of the room
and went back to his own bedroom.
When they got up, Old Master Quirke was half–lying in bed and he looked energetic. “Grandpa, Dr.
Jacobs is here.” Andrius brought Rosalie to the bedside.
Hearing that, Old Master Quirke squinted his eyes and looked at Rosalie from top to bottom. He then
showed a grateful smile. “Dr. Jacobs, thank you so much for your treatment. Otherwise, I would’ve left
the world by now.”
Although he had already met her a few times previously, he was too weak to even speak. He had just
recovered some energy these two days.
Rosalie smiled gently. “Don‘t worry about it. I‘m a doctor, and you‘re my patient. I feel content seeing
you recover.”
That being said, she sat down aside and started to sanitize her equipment. Looking at her focused
expression, Old Master Quirke’s appreciation was beyond words.
Noticing how he was looking at her, Wendy was dissatisfied in her heart and walked forward with a
smile. She pretended to block his vision so that he could not see Rosalie and greeted him, “Old Man
Quirke.”
Old Master Quirke then only noticed her presence and nodded. “Wendy, you‘re here too.” Wendy sat by
his side with affection. “I got to know that you woke up a few days ago. I should‘ve come earlier, but I
was caught up with a lot of company affairs. I finally had time to visit you today.” Wendy then glanced at
Rosalie aside and said, “Byron was supposed to be here too, but he has been so busy these few days
and told me to send you his regards. We‘re more than thrilled to know that you‘re recovering well.” Old
Master Quirke was very happy. “You and Byron are really kind. Thank you for thinking about me and
helping me to find doctors all around the world despite your busy schedule.” Wendy frowned and
snorted lightly.
“Don‘t be polite with us. Byron and I treat you as our own grandfather.” As she spoke, she kept on
glancing at Rosalie as if she was trying to show off her prestige. Hearing their conversation that was as
if Wendy was already family with Byron, Rosalie‘s mind was telling herself that whatever relationship
they had was none of her business. However, she could not deny the fact that she was still affected by
it.
After sanitizing all her equipment, Rosalie lowered her eyes to cover up her emotions and walked
toward the two as if it was nothing.
“Miss Fuller, I need you to move aside so I can start my treatment.” Wendy was chatting happily with
the Old Master, and both of them were smiling broadly. As soon as he heard Rosalie‘s voice, his
attention got diverted toward her. Wendy could only keep her smile away and move aside with
dissatisfaction.
