Chapter 1286 Parasite
Arielle could not fathom who would commit such a heinous crime against an old woman, and she scathingly thought that whoever had done it deserved to burn in hell.
“What? A parasite?”
“Ms. Moore, you know how to eliminate parasites?”
“Is that what happened? Ms. Moore, could you go into detail for us?”
Everyone present was part of the medical field, so it was only natural that they would want to discuss a patient case that was beyond their understanding.
Arielle had nothing to hide, so she breezily agreed, “If everyone is interested to know more, I’d be happy to go into detail after the competition.”
The crowd respected Arielle’s willingness to share. After all, there were tons of people who would gatekeep their knowledge and refuse to disclose such precious information.
Viggo was in awe of Arielle. Before, he had been impressed by her medical expertise, but now, he admired her character.
Queenie stood to the side with a scowl on her face. She still had trouble accepting the fact that Arielle had identified the cause of the disease and treated the elderly lady.
Donovan could tell from Queenie’s dark expression that she was in a foul mood. He could empathize with her; he imagined that anyone would feel upset if someone they thought to be below them had overtaken them.
At the same time, Donovan was dismayed by how an intelligent and capable woman like Arielle would rather stay with a two-timing man like Vinson than be in a relationship with him. The fact that Arielle always looked down upon him only added insult to injury.
Just then, the Mills’ butler started to announce the results under Cornelius’ instructions.
“About Arielle’s results, every mark was allocated according to the rules. She is phenomenal at what she does. On the first day, she not only found the most medicinal herbs, but the herbs she found were also of the highest value.”
“On the second day, which was yesterday, all of you were assigned a patient. I’m sure you have seen for yourselves how she managed to find the cause of the old lady’s illness and cure her in such a short time. That alone is enough to speak for her exceptional ability.”
“As for the third day, who amongst you has the confidence that you’ll be able to cure the disease if you were the one who had encountered it?”
As Abraham spoke, his eyes scanned the crowd, scrutinizing their expressions. The man remained silent. Although he was stressed about Arielle’s high marks, he knew that with his skill level, he might not have been able to treat Arielle’s patient yesterday.
Queenie felt resigned after hearing her father’s reply. Her marks for all three days were nowhere near as high as Arielle’s, which meant there was no chance of her being the head of the Mill family.
At the thought of that, Queenie shot a glare at Arielle. If I can’t have it, then I’ll make sure Arielle doesn’t get it too!
