Chapter 585 His Intentions Aren’t Pure!
“However, I also know how tough it is to study traditional Chinese medicine. Furthermore, my child is still so young, and… I don’t want her to suffer. I just want her to grow up healthy and happy.” Selena’s words seemed to have impacted the doctor, for Andy lowered his gaze and stroked his beard silently.
“A normal person may think of traditional Chinese medicine as a tough subject to master, but how sure are you that traditional Chinese doctors don’t take joy in studying it?” Andy exhaled slowly before he continued, “You should go back and reconsider my offer. I think it would be good if you asked for your daughter’s opinion before giving me your answer.”
Selena smiled. “There are tons of children who are just like my daughter, Doctor Werner. Is there a reason she caught your eye?”
“Your daughter is naturally talented. If she properly learns and sharpens her skills with me, I’m certain that she will be a great contributor to our field of medicine someday,” he replied.
It felt good to hear someone calling her daughter talented, but Selena simply couldn’t bear the thought of Juniper having to suffer in any way. “I’ll go back and think about it,” she finally said.
Meanwhile, Pierre paced back and forth in the room as he waited for Selena to return. No one dared to talk to him as he looked too grim and moody to be approached. He finally rushed over when Selena returned. “Are you okay? Did that old man do anything to you?”
Juniper chuckled as she watched them from aside. “You’re finally back, Mommy! We nearly got dizzy from watching Daddy pace around in the room!”
Selena shifted her focus onto Juniper before she walked over and stroked the young girl’s hair. I really don’t want Juniper to go through those hardships, Selena thought.
“Well, what did the old man say? Did he agree to help you?” Pierre continued asking.
“He did. But he had one condition. He wanted Juniper to become his apprentice,” Selena replied.
