The Ultimate Reborn Heiress (Scarlett) novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142 Nice Wig

If you wanted your own daughter to live a wealthy life, why would you abuse someone else’s child like that?

Everyone there wanted to go give Pamela a good beating.

An elderly woman with a full head of white hair removed an emerald bracelet from her wrist and slipped it onto Callie’s.

“Callie, this is a gift from me. It’s not the finest emerald, but I’ve been wearing it since I was 15.

“It’s brought me good luck, and I hope it will bless you too. May you have a safe, smooth, and happy life from now on. And make sure you come visit me often. I’ll make you my homemade caramel pudding. My caramel pudding is absolutely delicious.”

Zoey introduced her to Callie.

“Callie, this is your great–aunt, Alivia Nunez. She’s your father’s aunt.”

The Crawfords‘ side of the family wasn’t particularly wealthy.

But the relatives were all good, decent people.

Alivia clearly felt genuine heartache for Callie.

She had given Callie the bracelet she had worn her entire life, hoping the girl would never have to suffer again and would have a lucky, beautiful future.

Callie’s eyes turned a little red.

“Thank you, Great–Aunt Alivia. I’ll treasure this bracelet always.”

The other friends and family had also prepared gifts, and they took this opportunity to give them all to Callie.

Zoey took Callie around to meet all the relatives.

That was when she spotted Scarlett.

Zoey patted Callie on the shoulder.

Callie turned around and saw Scarlett. A smile spread across her face.

She excused herself from the relatives and went over to Scarlett.

Scarlett smiled. “You’re looking much better. Come on, let’s go sit over there. I’ll check your pulse and prepare some restorative supplements for you. I’ll also write up some dietary remedies.”

She should have checked Callie’s pulse and helped her recover sooner.

But back then, she had just peeked into the secrets of fate, and her own body had been struggling to hold

Callie nodded obediently and followed Scarlett to the lounge area to sit down.

Scarlett reached out to read her pulse.

Alex happened to be walking over with his friends.

He had wanted to say hello to Scarlett, but when he saw her reading his cousin’s pulse, he kept quiet and led his friends to sit down properly nearby.

A girl with pink hair who had come with him watched Scarlett check Callie’s pulse and asked Alex in surprise, “She knows how to read pulses? Does she actually know traditional medicine?”

Alex whispered, “Haven’t you watched her show? Just by looking at someone, she could tell that Thelma on the program had a malignant tumor in her intestines.”

The pink–haired girl muttered, “I haven’t watched it.”

She barely had enough time to go out and have fun every day. Where would she find time to sit around watching celebrities and influencers livestream?

Besides, being able to detect a malignant tumor just by looking at someone’s complexion?

She just didn’t buy it.

Did Scarlett think she was some legendary healer from ancient times?

Scarlett finished reading Callie’s pulse and said gently, “Don’t worry. It’s nothing serious. You’re just a bit malnourished. With some proper care, you’ll be fine. When I get home, I’ll prepare some nutritional supplements for you. Take one every day.

“I’ll also write you a dietary plan. You’ll recover quickly, and you’ll even have a growth spurt.”

In reality, malnutrition came in varying degrees of severity.

Callie’s malnutrition was already quite serious. It had long affected her body, her height, and her development.

Relying solely on modern nutritionists would make it very difficult to restore her health.

Without medicinal treatment, her height would struggle to reach normal levels.

But Scarlett didn’t want to scare Callie, so she simply said it was malnutrition.

As long as she took the nutritional supplements Scarlett prepared, she would recover.

The pink–haired girl couldn’t help but speak up. “Scarlett, are you really that good? You can even do a psychic reading, and you know traditional medicine too?”

Scarlett glanced at the pink–haired girl. “The occult and medicine have always gone hand in hand. They’re

closely connected.”

The pink–haired girl seemed to think of something and was about to continue.

Before she could say anything, Scarlett suddenly said, “You’re losing your hair, aren’t you?”

The pink–haired girl stared at Scarlett in shock.

She hated to admit it, but she really was going bald…

She might look young at only 20, but she stayed up late all the time, drank frequently, and loved hitting the clubs. She didn’t go to bed until morning every day. As a result, her hair had been getting thinner and thinner. When she pulled it all back, there was barely anything there. So she had just started wearing wigs every day.

She had money, so her wigs were high quality.

When she wore them, other people couldn’t tell. She never expected Scarlett to see through it at a glance and even know she was going bald.

The pink–haired girl couldn’t help but ask, “Since you say you know medicine, can you cure my baldness?”

She had seen plenty of doctors about her hair loss.

They all said it was because of her lifestyle. They told her to start going to bed early and waking up early to fix her sleep schedule and to drink less.

But how was she supposed to do any of that?

Scarlett shook her head. “I can’t cure it.”

When the pink–haired girl heard this, she felt a wave of disappointment.

Of course. For a moment there, she had actually thought Scarlett was impressive and that her traditional medicine skills were legit.

Turns out she was just putting on a show.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Scarlett continue, “I can’t cure it, but I can make your hair grow back. You definitely can’t fix your sleep schedule, right?”
