Chapter 387

“That’s very difficult, Mommy!” Clayton protested from the side.

He didn’t want to learn medicine from Natalie because there were far too many things to memorize for

herbal medicine and acupuncture. To make matters worse, there were no mnemonics to aid

memorization. One would have to forcefully memorize everything and learn to apply their knowledge by

themselves later on.

Natalie wasn’t surprised when she heard what Clayton said. “The Esoteric Medical Doctrine is just a

classical piece of literature used for introduction to traditional medicine. If she finds this difficult, then I

think she should just give up on studying medicine.”

“Mommy, are you making this difficult for Sophia on purpose so she’ll quit on her own?” Xavian chimed

in as well.

“If you insist on seeing it that way, then there’s nothing I can do about it,” Natalie replied with a helpless

shrug.

Suddenly, Sophia walked up to her and said with a determined look in her eyes, “I’m going to memorize

this, and I will learn medicine from you.”

Natalie didn’t say anything and simply took a sip of her orange juice.

I’m not going to make things easier for Sophia because there is no such thing as shortcuts when it

comes to learning. If she can’t even handle a little suffering like this, then she isn’t worthy of me

breaking the Bayer family’s rules.

Yara kicked the empty bottle beside her feet to the side as she slowly sobered up.

She then took a hot shower to wash the smell of booze off her body before putting on the latest coat

from Hermès.

Having restored her usual graceful appearance, Yara went downstairs and saw Thomas waiting for her

with a smile.

“Yara, why didn’t you tell me you were coming back?” he asked.

“It was a last-minute decision, so I didn’t really think about informing you. I’ll be keeping Old Mr. Bowers

company in the hospital for the next few days, so I might be spending the night there,” Yara replied

indifferently.

“While it is important for you to look after Old Mr. Bowers, you should also make sure to get enough

rest. You’re going to marry Samuel sooner or later, so you shouldn’t have to do everything by yourself,”

Thomas said while patting her on the shoulder.

Naturally, Yara liked the sound of that and nodded obediently.

“I know, Dad.”

“Oh, by the way…” Thomas rubbed his palms awkwardly as he continued, “If possible, could you have

Old Mr. Bowers provide Dexmed Pharmaceutical some financial support? Competition with Dream

Pharmaceutical has gotten pretty fierce lately, and we’ve been losing quite a lot of money.”

The smile on Yara’s face was frozen in place when she heard that.

So, Dad still sees me as a cash cow… He wants me to marry Samuel because of the benefits it would

bring his business!

“Old Mr. Bowers likes you very much, Yara. I’m sure he’ll say yes if you ask him. After all, you helped

give birth to Franklin and Sophia. That’s something no one else can take away from you.”

“That’s enough, Dad! I know what I’m supposed to do!”

Yara shouted and stormed out of the Nichols residence.

This family is full of cunning foxes! They’ve only been pretending to care about me for as long as I can

remember. None of them actually did help me, and all they want is to leech as much profit out of me as

possible! If Jennie took me to the countryside instead of Natalie back then, I wonder how different

things would be for me now…

Yara headed over to a fancy restaurant and ordered a herbal soup for takeout. Instead of having them

store it in a takeout container, she requested for them to store it in a vacuum flask that she had

brought.

Upon arrival at the hospital, Yara entered Kenneth’s ward with the flask of herbal soup.

“Hi, Grandpa! I spent five hours making this herbal soup for you…” She opened the flask and served

him a bowl of it as she continued, “Here, try some..”

Kenneth didn’t move and simply glared at her with those old eyes of his.

His gaze was so intense that it gave Yara goosebumps.

“G-Grandpa? W-Why are you looking at me like this? Did I do something wrong?”

“Yara, we have known each other for a very long time. I thought I understood you very well, but now, I

realize you aren’t exactly the person I thought you were.” Kenneth pursed his lips and asked after a

brief pause, “Do you really know traditional medicine?”
