“Sir Bowman is having trouble breathing again. I have to go to the Bowman’s mansion right away. Please keep an eye on things here, and if it gets too busy, just close up.
“It’s a stormy day and there aren’t many patients. Don’t worry, just go. I’ll take care of things here.”
Romina finished packing, gently patted his arm, and said, “Alright, I’m heading out.‘
“The rain is heavy. Drive slowly and be safe.”
Romina nodded, quickly grabbed her car keys, and rushed to the door.
”
On the way to the Bowman’s mansion, the torrential rain caused a traffic jam. Lenora kept calling her repeatedly, urging her to hurry.
This was the first time Lenora had been so anxious in urging her, which made it clear that the situation was truly serious.
Romina’s grip on the steering wheel kept tightening.
She took the shortest route and finally arrived at the villa halfway up the mountain.
The rain was heavy, but she didn’t even have time to open her umbrella. Carrying her medical kit, she rushed to the entrance.
Just as she was about to go inside, someone suddenly stopped her.
Following the slender hand that blocked her, Romina abruptly looked up.
Standing in front of her were Nadine and Jericho.
It was Nadine who had reached out to stop her.
“What are you doing? Move out of the way…
“After your treatment, Grandpa’s condition hasn’t improved at all. In fact, it’s gotten worse. You can’t go in and treat him anymore!” Nadine’s expression was as dark as could be. “I’ve already called a medical doctor. They will be here soon.”
“I want you to move. Do you hear me?”

Romina’s voice suddenly rose a notch.
She had just been caught in the rain, and both her hair and clothes were damp. A gust of wind blew by, making her feel even colder.
Even Jericho, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up. “Romina, I think Nadine is right. After your treatment, Grandpa’s condition really hasn’t improved. Maybe your medical skills just aren’t good enough…”
“So you shouldn’t treat Grandpa anymore. The medical doctor we’ve invited is a renowned thoracic spe- cialist in the country. He can treat Grandpa when he arrives.”
“Grandpa’s current condition is not suitable for conventional medicine. If you use conventional medicine, surgery will be required. He’s already very old, and another surgery would be extremely dan- gerous. None of you can bear the consequences!”
Romina’s tone was icy cold. When she looked at them, her eyes were filled with a chilling light.
Nadine spoke again. “Romina! Even if your medical skills are decent, you’ve been in prison for so many years. No matter how good you once were, your skills must have deteriorated!”
“And as a woman who has been to prison, your character is already questionable. Who knows if you’ve been using improper treatments on Grandpa behind our backs.”
At that moment, Romina’s phone rang again.
It was a call from Lenora.
Lenora should be in Grandpa’s room by now, unaware that Romina had already arrived downstairs and was being blocked by the two of them.
“Your mother called me to come, and now you two are blocking me here. What exactly do you mean by
this?”
Romina hung up the call and looked up at the man in front of her.
The redness in her eyes grew even deeper.
“No matter what, you absolutely cannot go in today!”
Jericho’s stance was especially clear.
“If you keep blocking me and something happens to Grandpa, can you take responsibility?” Romina shouted at him, her voice hoarse. “Stop jumping to conclusions and use your brain, will you?”

Her body was chilled, and combined with her anger, Romina couldn’t stop trembling.
Nadine said angrily, “The medical doctor will be here soon. Please leave immediately!”
A deep voice suddenly came from behind. “Who is trying to drive her away?”
Everyone quickly turned around, looking toward the bottom of the steps.
Romina also turned her head, and when she saw the man behind her, her hand gripping the medical kit tightened slightly for a moment.
The man was dressed in a black suit, his hand holding the umbrella handle was fair and slender. As the umbrella was slightly lifted, his exceptionally handsome yet extremely cold face gradually emerged in the fog–shrouded world, leaving a deep impression on everyone present.
Erick stood behind him and took the umbrella from his hand.
Joaquin walked over to Romina’s side, his gaze falling on Nadine: “Was it you who wanted to drive her away?”
Nadine was intimidated by Joaquin’s powerful presence, and she stepped back a little, standing in line with Jericho.
