Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 62

Chapter 62 Her Mentor Was an Exceptional Doctor

Before they could see the visitors, they heard Max’s voice booming from the foyer, “What happened to Mom?”

Edmund’s frosty voice followed, “Has anyone called the ambulance?”

Arthur, who was a doctor by profession, squatted down to check Margot’s heartbeat and breathing. He hesitated for a moment. “Hmm, it looks like… she is out of danger.”

Elspeth watched as the crowd flocked to the bedroom, and she stood up to announce, “Mrs. Winthrop has stopped her medicine for a while now. It’s likely what caused her cardiac syncope due to her congenital heart disease. But I performed some first aid on her, and she is fine now.”

Arthur’s eagle eyes spotted the needles that were scattered across the floor, and he asked, “What are those?”

She gathered the needles and stuck them back into the storage bag. She whispered, “These are silver needles for acupuncture.”

There was a hint of judgment in his eyes. “You know how to perform acupuncture?”

She scoffed. “That’s right.”

Knowing that it was Elspeth who saved Margot, Max held more respect for her. Curious, his eyes widened. “Miss Elspeth! That’s so cool! Where did you learn your wonderful acupuncture skills?”

She was slightly embarrassed by his compliments. “I learned it from an old doctor when I was abroad.”

Callum’s sharp instinct told him that the old doctor must be an exceptional figure. “What’s his name?”

“Sonny Schwartz,” Elspeth replied.

Those who were not involved in medicine did not react upon hearing Sonny’s name. Arthur, who was usually calm and composed, had a rare outpour of emotions when he heard the name. “Sonny Schwartz? Do you mean the Sonny Schwartz who is known as the greatest doctor of the 21st century?”

She frowned, trying to recall. “I think so.”

“Elspeth, do you know how great a man your mentor is?”

Arthur had to admit that he was jealous of the fact that Elspeth received guidance from a legendary figure, whom he never had the chance to meet.

She nodded. “I guess.”

Greatest doctor? Pfft. He’s just an old man who loves tea drinking and chess playing with me—and is a sore loser in chess games.

Max’s eyes were shining with admiration for her. “I knew it! Miss Elspeth is something else!”

She silently cringed at Max’s sudden change in attitude.

Thankfully, the ambulance’s siren shifted everyone’s attention away from her. At the hospital, the family settled Margot’s admission, where they filled in the paperwork and had Callum stay back to take care of their mother. Then, the rest of the family went back to work.

Without surprise, Ophelia stayed back to accompany Callum, but she appeared low-spirited.

She had thought that Elspeth would bite off more than she could chew by administering bogus treatments, but to her dismay, Elspeth proved her expertise in the field of medicine and was revealed to be the protégé of a famous doctor.

The more she thought about it, the more envious she felt. She asked, “Elspeth, how did you get to know that mentor of yours?”

However, her question was met with silence from Elspeth, who did not want to give her attention.

“Elspeth…” Seeing that, Ophelia called out again.
