NovelEnglishChapter 576
Paul looked so amazed. It was as if he had just watched Yolanda perform magic rather than medicine. It made
both Jude and Alfred chuckle.
"Ms. Henderson, it's almost lunchtime. What would you like to eat? I'll have it arranged right away."
Alfred did not know how to properly thank Yolanda. After all, her acupuncture had essentially saved his life. He
felt that money alone would not be appropriate. He caught Jude's eye with a meaningful look.
Jude understood immediately and began arranging lunch for Yolanda. It would not be proper to send a doctor
away right after treatment anyway. He turned to Asher and Paul's group as well. "All of you should join us."
Paul felt that he had not been of any help, so he declined apologetically. He said he had other commitments and
left. Asher saw the group out before returning. Yolanda considered for a moment before telling Alfred, "My clinic
is quite busy these days, so I'll have to skip lunch."

a few days."
Noting her firm stance, Alfred did not insist. He asked Jude to see her out of the Kaufman residence. Jude offered
to drive her himself, but Yolanda turned him down too. In the end, a Kaufman family driver took her to Willow
Creek Clinic.
Her comment about the clinic being busy was not an excuse. During this transition between spring and summer,
there were many patients with colds and allergies. Even their preventive cold medicine had not been enough to
ward off the flu season. Recently, there seemed to be even more patients coming in with cold symptoms.
As Yolanda got out of the Kaufmans' car, she was about to enter the clinic when she heard someone calling her
name.
"Yolanda! Yolanda!" She turned to see Winnie and a middle-aged woman standing across the street.
Winnie waved at Yolanda. When traffic cleared, she crossed over with the woman beside her. Through the
original Yolanda's memories, Yolanda recognized the woman as Winnie's mother, Linda Whitmore. She was
Diana's older sister.
"What brings you here?"
"Mom and | were shopping nearby and looking for lunch. Then we saw you getting out of the car," Winnie
explained while curiously eyeing the clinic behind Yolanda. "Yolanda, is this your clinic?"
"Her clinic? No way!" Linda interrupted before Winnie could finish. She frowned. "She's just a helper there!"
Linda believed Yolanda had only taken this temporary job because she had been thrown out of the Henderson
family. She did not believe a word of Winnie's stories about Yolanda healing people and saving some
businessman's son.
"She hasn't even greeted me. How rude!" The Whitmores had a poor impression of Yolanda due to Diana's
neglect and Yvonne's scheming. Linda, in particular, looked down on Yolanda. She merely thought of Yolanda as
fat, stupid, and worthless.
"Mom!" Winnie looked helplessly at her mother's attitude. "Yolanda isn't just a helper; she-"
Linda cut her off harshly, "Enough. Don't cover for her. | know exactly what she's worth. It's lunchtime, so let's
hurry and go find somewhere to eat!"
Linda despised Yolanda so much that if it weren't for Winnie's insistence on greeting her, she would have
pretended not to see her at all.
"But..."
