Chapter 12 Who on Earth Is This Woman
Silas called out abruptly. Although he had not moved a single step from where
he stood, his aura pressed down
against Gianna. “Miss Aubrey, allow me to apologize on my family‘s behalf. My grandpa ha
s been unconscious for a week now. If you can cure him, please do.” His attitude was
rather polite.
Thus, Gianna stopped in her tracks and looked at him. “Didn‘t you say there are issues wit
h my moral character, Mr. Nolan? Why? Aren‘t you afraid that my moral character is so po
or that I might harm the old man during the treatment process?
He looked at her with those long and narrow eyes of his. “I believe in the benevolence of a
doctor. I‘m sure you won‘t toy with a person‘s life, Miss Aubrey.” On the other hand, she r
olled
her eyes at him, secretly snorting in her heart, Why isn‘t he being arrogant anymore? “I ca
n help, but we‘ll need to discuss the dirty details upfront.” South‘s eyes sparkled, carrying
an inexplicable sense of excitement. Mommy is out to get her revenge. At the same time,
Silas‘s brows furrowed together unnaturally. She looked him straight in the eye and said, “
Mr. Nolan, I‘ve agreed to treat him, but I don‘t dare to guarantee that I can completely cur
e him immediately. However, I do have confidence in being able to
cure him. At first, I wasn‘t going to take any consultation fees for my services due to my re
lationship with Landon. Unfortunately, I have a bad habit–

He understood what she was saying. This woman isn‘t just referring
to her grudge against Penny; she‘s also
referring to her grudge against me. Fortunately, I have never cared much for money anyw
ay. “Sure. You can name any price for your consultation fee as long as you can cure my gr
andpa.” Gianna glanced at the man again. Then, the corners of her
mouth curled into a smile slowly. That smile
of hers was very arrogant. “Rest assured. I‘ve taken a look at Old Man Nolan‘s illness just n
ow. He will need a month to recover completely, but I can wake
him up within the hour.” When Penny heard those words, she flew into a rage. “Wow;
there’s no need to pay taxes for bragging, is there? You haven’t even examined him; do
you even know what kind of illness my grandpa is suffering from? Wake him up within the
hour? Stop talking out of your a*s!”
Gianna scowled fiercely. This woman‘s buzzing is more annoying than a fly. Just as
she was about to say something, she heard two voices ringing out in unison.
“Shut up!” “That‘s the difference between you and Mommy!” Both father and son defende
d her at the same time as if they had agreed on it beforehand When Silas heard the voice,
he paused slightly, Turning around, his gaze collided with South‘s
That child‘s gaze was very self–
composed, Outwardly, it seemed like he had a calmness beyond his peers, and his eyes sp
arkled brightly. Even Silas, who had a dislike for children, found this child extremely adora
ble It‘s unbelievable. I don‘t believe this hateful woman, Gianna Aubrey could have such a
n adorable son!
Similarly, it was also the first time South met his biological dad‘s gaze straight on For a mo
ment, he was completely captivated by that pair
of eyes, Compared to all the men he had met before, Silas was different. Just by standing t
here, his aura overflowed from his entire body, and it was enough to make people surrend
er to him.
This is the kind of daddy I want.
Afterward, South slowly withdrew his gaze and quietly leaned against Gianna, Silas glance
d at South, then said to Gianna, “Miss Aubrey, please don‘t mind her, Please treat my gran
dpa!” Gianna gave Penny a dirty look, turned around, and walked over to the bed, Facing t
he patient, her expression changed drastically and she became extremely serious. Then, s
he took out a small wrist pillow from her black backpack. After that, she took Old Man Nola
n‘s pulse and opened his eyes to check them
Once she confirmed her preliminary diagnosis, she took out a rolled–
up white cloth bag from her backpack and spread it out with a flourish. Inside the bag wer
e densely packed silver needles of varying lengths–it was extremely shocking to see

Although they were filled with doubt, they were deterred by Silas and didn‘t dare to make
any objections. However, when they saw how Gianna skillfully drew out silver needles and
accurately inserted them into various acupuncture points on Old Man Nolan‘s body, they
were amazed. Her skill in inserting the needles was smooth from years of practice, and
she was
extremely accurate when locating the acupuncture points. One glance was enough
to tell that she wasn’t ordinary–her level of skill wasn‘t something that could have been
achieved without constant practice and lots of experience. At that moment, the room was
silent. Everybody stared at Gianna as she worked, including Penny, who
remained unconvinced. On the other hand, Gianna’s gaze was
steady. She was utterly focused as she continued to insert the needles into various
other acupuncture points on the old man’s body.
Silas stared at the woman in front of him, from the start to the end, as she put the needles
in his grandfather‘s body, one by one. The worry and suspicions he had at the start had
turned into amazement and admiration by this point. He was beginning to develop a deep-
seated desire to understand this woman.
Just who on earth is this woman?
