Rising From Betrayal Reborn As The Family Outcast (Alicia Delaney) novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254

She added, “His feelings for Mavis are probably even more complicated.”

Being treated like a substitute just to have a kid-no guy with any pride could really accept

that.

So he usually just left Mavis alone, only stepping in when it affected Nicole’s interests.

“Once the miracle doctor cures Nicolas, Nicole’s dad will finally get his chance to make his move,” Alicia said.

Even if Mavis and Nicole had the miracle doctor backing them, Alicia wasn’t about to let them off the hook.

The miracle doctor might have connections in the medical world, but of course, Alicia had her own network too.

Her grandfather had left her a lot of his contacts.

She had plenty of her own connections in the medical field, and her network just kept expanding.

Recently, thanks to her teacher’s connections, she got to treat a real VIP-and actually cured him.

When it came to medical skills and networking, she could go toe-to-toe with that miracle doctor and not break a sweat.

Ten days later, Victor and Nicole hosted a grand engagement party.

The Farrells sent an invitation to Jason, and Nicole made sure Alicia got one too.

But neither of them bothered to show up-they didn’t even try to hide how much they hated the whole thing.

A few days later, Alicia got a call from Diana.

Diana wanted her to come back to Irisport for a while.

The miracle doctor was about to treat Nicolas, but the Moore family didn’t really trust him.

So they asked Alicia to keep an eye on things during the treatment.

Since Alicia and Nicolas had already cut ties, the Moore family didn’t bother appealing to any old feelings.

Instead, they tried to sweeten the deal with some real benefits.

But now, they were willing to offer up all their resources in that area to Alicia and her crew for their eco-project.

Nicolas was their only son, so everything they did was for him.

From Nicolas’s health issues to the way the Hammonds acted, the Moore family was mad as hell.

But what really drove them up the wall was Victor and Nicole getting engaged.

That was a straight-up slap in the face-the Moore family and Nicole couldn’t stand each

The miracle doctor told Nicolas to lie down on a couch by himself and kicked things off with some acupuncture needles.

Once he was done, Diana glanced anxiously at Alicia-she only relaxed after Alicia nodded at her.

After the acupuncture, the miracle doctor took out a porcelain bottle. “Take one pill from this twice a day. Once you finish the whole bottle, you’ll be good as new.”

Nicolas took the bottle and immediately passed it to Alicia.

Alicia poured out a pill and sniffed it.

The miracle doctor frowned at that, but since the Moore family had already let him know Alicia would be present, he managed to keep his temper in check.

He was also interested to see if this nosy girl could actually spot anything.

After a moment, Alicia poured the pill back into the bottle.

She gave the miracle doctor a half-smile. “This medicine’s missing the real kicker, isn’t it? “You’re still keeping something up your sleeve. That’s pretty shady of you.”

‘Taking this stuff won’t hurt Nicolas, but it’s not gonna actually fix his problem of not being able to have kids.
