Chapter 184
"Kathy, you're a part of the Levisay Family after you're married into the family. Since you have the
ability, why would you hide it? Old Madam is old, and as the younger generation, you should give her a
checkup since you have such great medical skills so that she could live a long healthy life. Isn't that
what you should do as the younger generation? So why are you giving excuses? Or do you not take
yourself as a part of the Levisay Family?" Hera sneered, seeing Katherine's reaction.
Although a small local media made the report about Katherine, they still had ways to find out the truth.
Who would have thought she had such a massive ace up her sleeve when she looked so gentle and
harmless? She's actually a genius doctor! Hera thought, her heart filled with regret now. If she had
known that Katherine was so capable, she wouldn't have let her marry Joaquin. Such an amazing
woman should be married to her son, Robert!
At the thought of Robert, her eyes lit up slightly.
Since the incident last time, he has been constantly in a mentally unstable state. If Katherine's medical
skills are really that good, maybe she can also cure Robert of his mental illness!
After all, even the top neurologist in the country was helpless and said that he couldn't do anything
about Robert's illness.
Just the thought that there was a possibility for Robert to be cured, her eyes couldn't help but glow with
hope.
"Mom, what rumor did you hear that says I know medicine? Why would I be snubbed in the Cornell
Family if I really have such an ability?" Katherine explained helplessly with a sigh.
"What? Could there be a mistake when it's already reported in the news? I've seen your face, and they

to treat Old Madam, do you?" Hera was immediately peeved when she saw that Katherine was still
refusing to act.
The look on Elizabeth's face turned even grimmer. "Forget it. We don't have to beg them. Hmph, but
remember this. After what you did today, don't come begging the Levisays if you run into any problems
in the future."
Katherine didn't answer, and Joaquin pulled her along his side. Then, when he heard Elizabeth, he
couldn't help but chuckle. "Don't worry, Old Madam. That won't happen."
"You!" Every word he said was irritating, and Elizabeth felt that if she continued speaking with him, she
would pass out from the anger. She pressed her palm against her chest as she yelled, "Forget it, just
leave—"
"Old Madam!" Her words sent a rush of panic through Hera because she was waiting for Katherine to
treat Robert. If things really turned sour now and Elizabeth completely burned the bridge between
them, how could she ask Katherine to treat Robert after this?
She hurriedly opened her mouth and cut off Elizabeth, coaxing her, "Don't be mad, Old Madam.
Katherine is still young and ignorant. As their elders, we must teach them patiently and not get mad at
them."
When Hera put it that way, Elizabeth didn't say anything else to drive them out despite her face
remaining sullen.
Only then did Hera breathe a sigh of relief, and she twirled to Katherine, speaking in an earnest tone,
"Kathy, I don't want to nag you, either, but you're used to living outside since you were young, and you
don't know how it is to be in a family. But that's okay. Since you're married into the Levisay Family, I'll
guide you properly from now on. First, do a checkup on your grandmother. She has recently
complained of a headache and feels uncomfortable all over. Today is her birthday. You can't just
trample over her face."
Katherine merely smirked without replying as she looked at her dispassionately, making Hera
uncomfortable.
Before she could say more, Joaquin said icily next to Katherine, "It's not entirely impossible for
Katherine to have a look at Old Madam. Let's do it according to the rules. It will be five million for Kathy
to check her pulse once. Pay first before she does the checkup."
When Elizabeth heard the figure he was demanding, she was instantly furious and exclaimed loudly,
"What? Five million? Is this a robbery?"
It wasn't that she didn't have the money, but if she had to pay Katherine—and only for the checkup—
she just felt uncomfortable no matter what.
At the end of the day, Katherine was her granddaughter-in-law, and she had never heard of a
granddaughter-in-law charging a fee for a checkup, which was so expensive.
Even Hera felt her heart ache at the cost, but her ultimate aim was to see Katherine at work. Then, at
least, she could see it for herself if Katherine's medical skills were really so incredible. Hence, she
squared her jaw and said decisively, "Fine. I'll pay this fee! Mom, you've worked hard all your life, and
it's your birthday today, so take it as my gift to you. I'll pay."
Then, she swiveled around and went upstairs. Not long after, she came downstairs with a card and
passed it to Katherine. "There's five million in this card, and the password is six eight's. So go and take
a look at your grandmother."
Katherine took the card and kept it away in her pocket without any intention of turning her down. The
fury in Elizabeth's heart burned even brighter seeing how Katherine acted. She could feel the rage
surge within her, and no matter how she looked at Katherine, she just didn't like the sight of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe inhaled deeply before she threw Katherine a dirty look filled with outrage and hate from the corners
of her eyes.
Yet, Katherine was unbothered and stepped forward to feel Elizabeth's pulse with her fingertips. A few
minutes later, she retracted her hand. "This is probably a problem you have had since you were young,
Old Madam. There's a blood clot in your skull that didn't fade away. That's why you keep having
splitting headaches."
After she finished her diagnosis, she spun around and returned to Joaquin's side.
"T-That's it?" Hera gaped in shock as she merely heard Katherine mention the cause of the illness and
nothing else.
"Old Madam indeed has some health issues, but most of them are problems associated with age since
people naturally have problems as they grow old. These are not huge concerns and couldn't be cured.
Just pay more attention to the daily diet and rest. Less oily and salty food, maintain a regular rest cycle,
and exercise more. Then, the body will be fine." After some contemplation, Katherine felt it was unkind
of her to say just a few words after receiving five million. So, she threw in a few more words.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth almost passed out from anger at her, and she immediately questioned, "Since
you know that I have a blood clot in my skull, do you know if there's a way to cure it? You've received
five million from us!"
Katherine said seriously, "Five million is only the consultation fee. It doesn't include the treatment fee.
Besides, surgery is enough to remove the blood clot in the skull. Just go to a hospital and look for a
brain surgeon, Grandma."
Elizabeth started coughing violently from the anger. Before she could catch her breath, she heard
Katherine saying mockingly, "Old Madam, you should be calmer at your age and don't get agitated so
easily. Getting angry would only hurt your body."
"Kathy, don't you have a way to cure her without going under the knife? You're a genius doctor, aren't
you?" Mentally exhausted from how Katherine continued to act dumb, Hera could only bite the bullet
and interfere when she saw that Elizabeth was about to start an argument with Katherine.
