NovelEnglishChapter 1361
Unexpectedly, Rhea said, "I know! You're talking about Mr.Dominic's secret apprentice.ls there any proof of it? As far as | know, he
has never disclosed who his apprentice is.Could he just be a fraud?"
"No, no!"
Maria quickly defined.
"I heard about this from an insider.It tooka lot of effort to find that informant.I'm sure the news is reliable! Mr.Austin has never
publicly declared that he is Mr.Dominic's secret apprentice.He's not a liar.He took excellent care of my friend's cousin's grandson!"
Rhea was speechless at her mother's feeble attempt to convince her.
"All right, now.Let's not talk about this.It's makingangry! That brat doesn't even appreciate my efforts!"
The more Maria talked about this, the angrier she became.
In the end, she waved around and stopped talking.
"Did you say that Anastasia doesn't want to be cured? That she doesn't want to lose weight?" Rhea asked again after returning to
her senses.

"Who knows?! | think Mrs.Russell is brainwashing her!"
"Mrs.Russell?"
Rhea, who initially wanted to hang up the phone, unknowingly becmore interested.She wondered what had happened since
she left and why there were so many new updates from her mother.
Maria's somewhat boring life seemed to pick up the pace finally.
Now, Rhea was intrigued.
"Oh, you don't know her.Anyway, Mrs.Russell is super annoying.She seems to have sconflict with this miracle doctor | hired.|
don't know what she said to Tasia, but she seemed to have Tasia wrapped around her fingers.Now, Tasia refuses to see the miracle
doctor."
"Anastasia listens to her?"
Anastasia rarely interacted with people, so the person must be capable since Anastasia listened to an outsider whom she had not
known for very long.
"Exactly! She even lashed out attonight! | don't think she seesas her aunt at all! Didn't | take care of her when she was a
child? Even you were jealous, saying | treated her better than you.Now, she's snapping back at me, telling| don't care about
her self- esteem!"
However, Rhea could not be bothered about this.
"So, Anastasia didn't meet the miracle doctor you hired?"
"Yeah! I've been running around trying to get her an appointment, and it was all for nothing! Initially, 1 thought if | got the miracle
doctor to cure her, our uncle would owe us a big favor.That way, your dad could venture more into the business industry. Then it'll
benefit our family as well! Who could've thought..."
Maria seemed to have thought of something while speaking.
"Hold up! Did Mrs.Russell do this on purpose? She must've known that our family is competing against La Beaute Group for the
bidding.By not givinga chance to cure Tasia, your uncle wouldn't have to owe us any favors!"
The more she thought about it, the more it made sense.
When she thought about what her husband had said before, she started to understand how businesses worked.
"That can't be.l have to talk to your father."
"Wait!"
It was rare for Rhea not to hang up first, so Maria continued listening.

"Mom, did you pass Anastasia the agarwood | gave you?"
""Agar—what?"
Maria did not know what her daughter was talking about. ebookThen she quickly remembered.
"Oh, you mean the potted flower? | did, but Tasia isn’t you.
She won't appreciate these plants, so why do you keep giving them to her?"
"It's just my gift for her!"
Rhea continued, "All right, I'll return to my experiment now."
"Rhea..."
Maria was just about to speak when the dial tone sounded.
She shook her head and sighed.
Her daughter was so caught up with her experiments that Maria, as her mother, had to make big life decisions for her.
"Rhea..."
