NovelEnglishChapter 57: As Ayla presented what she claimed was evidence, the crowd's interest peaked, only to quickly deflate when they saw it was just an invitation to a medical conference. The room filled with a ripple of disappointment, their skepticism remaining intact. Undeterred, Ayla asserted with confidence, "Riss will publicly declareas her apprentice at the upcoming medical conference in two weeks. That should dispel any doubts about my honesty." Seeing that skepticism lingered in the living room, Ayla continued, "You've all seen the MindEase Elixir I gave Grandpa, right? If I didn't know Dr. Riss, how could I possibly have bought it?" Those words seemed to soften sof the lingering doubts among the Nash family members. Balthasar, feeling remorseful, instructed a servant to help Ayla onto the sofa and offered her words of comfort. Gradually, other family members joined, extending their apologies for doubting her.

Just as she was about to open it, a knock at the door interrupted her. Quickly hiding the diary, she opened the door to find Landen, his arms full of medical books. Without waiting for an invitation, Landen walked in and set the books down on the table. "Tiffany, it's tyou started learning medicine," he announced, already starting to read one of the books Taken aback by his sudden decree, Marissa responded with a touch of amusement, "It's late. I'm heading to bed." Despite her attempt to end the conversation, Landen was clearly not ready to drop the subject. "You need to joinin studying," he insisted earnestly, noticing Marissa's reluctance. He gently guided her to sit beside him. "Do you want to keep letting Ayla bully us? If she really becomes Dr. Riss' apprentice, what position will that leave us in this family?" he asked with genuine concern "Ayla becoming Dr. Riss' disciple is impossible," Marissa declared confidently "Why are you so certain? Didn't you see how confident she was earlier? What if it's true?" "Just the other day, she claimed Riss was a man in his thirties, which we know isn't true," Marissa countered. "Enough with the excuses. Regardless of what Ayla claims, we need to be proactive. I saw Riss today. She's about our age and already an accomplished doctor. Shouldn't that embarrass us?" Landen argued, pushing a medical book towards Marissa. Marissa couldn't help but chuckle as she glanced at the title: Preliminary Medical Knowledge "Are you really serious about this, Landen?" "Yes, I feel the need to take on the family responsibilities, instead of letting Sansa and Ayla dictate everything. If I take charge, maybe you wouldn't have to suffer indignities even if you were ousted by the Daniels family one day," Landen explained. Although his words were unpleasant to the ear, Marissa felt his genuine concern. She played along, pretending to study and posing questions to him, impressed by his knowledgeable responses "Landen, if you're truly intent on challenging Ayla and taking charge of the Nash family, why not compete to becRiss' apprentice yourself?" she suggested "Are you joking? Many seasoned professionals struggle to get Riss' attention. How could I, a newcomer, stand a chance?"
