Chapter 1217: 545 Family Harmony (Second Revision)_2 Chapter 1217: 545 Family Harmony (Second Revision)_2 Seraphine Moore felt as if her entire worldview had been turned upside down.
What could have possibly happened to Vanessa Aria?
Catherine Liam let her go, “Don’t show up in front of the old lady recently, that girl doesn’t look good to mess with.
You’d better lay low for a while.”
Charlotte Aria walked in, “Aubree, it was an emergency last night and I didn’t get a chance to talk to you in detail.
It’s not too late now.
It’s incredible that there’s such a wonderful connection between us.
My wish to have a sister has finally come true.”
Aubree smiled and nodded.
...
“When is your birthday?”
“November.”
“I was born in May, so I guess I’ll have to call you my little sister.”
Aubree was still smiling.
“Little sister.” Charlotte Aria held Aubree’s hand, “I know about the hardships you’ve experienced in the past. 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
From now on, consider the Aria family as your own and we are all your family.”
Madam Aria watched this scene with satisfaction.
Loretta interrupted Charlotte Aria’s self-immersed emotion by placing a bowl of porridge in front of Aubree.
“This is red date and black fungus porridge.
Aubree, are you deficient in Qi and blood?” Charlotte Aria asked with concern.
Madam Aria on the opposite side instantly perked up her ear anxiously.
“There’s nothing to worry about.
Uncle was just being overly cautious.” Aubree didn’t mention the fact that she had donated blood to Anton Cook.
Charlotte Aria’s smile revealed some deeper meaning, “The little Uncle certainly loves you a lot, makes me jealous.”
The tone was completely joking.
Aubree raised an eyebrow.
Then Loretta served a few more dishes, nearly all were blood-tonifying medicinal foods.
Aubree followed a vegetarian diet, and Peter Aria had gone to great lengths to find these recipes.
Seeing this, everyone measured it in their hearts.
Clearly, Peter Aria had gone above and beyond in his concern for his niece, even more so than for his own daughter.
Beyond what feelings Charlotte Aria had, Aubree didn’t know, and didn’t wish to know.
She finished her meal with Madam Aria and left Anika Hall.
Leaving Catherine Liam and Charlotte Aria.
“That girl really has no manners, she gives you the cold shoulder when you talk to her.
But Madam Aria still spoils her, and your little uncle too.
When has he ever been this nice to you?”
Charlotte Aria tightened her grip on her chopsticks and said calmly, “Mother, don’t say such things in the future.
Only with a harmonious family, can everything prosper.”
Catherine Liam glanced at Charlotte Aria, noticing her unusually cold expression, she felt a chill in her heart and was wise enough to keep quiet.
“Granny, may I check your eyes?” Aubree asked softly as she bent down.
Madam Aria laughed and said, “Of course, you can.
But these eyes of mine, countless reputable doctors have checked them, both Chinese and Western medicine alike, all to no avail.
I’ve given up hope.
It’s quite alright, being blind.
“Out of sight, out of mind”, they say.
I only regret not being able to see your face.”
Aubree carefully observed the reactions of Madam Aria’s pupils under the light.
Peter Aria was an influential expert in the field of surgery and definitely consulted with an ophthalmologist for Madam Aria.
Given the fact that her vision has not yet been restored, there’s virtually no hope.
She, too, is no famous doctor, she just read more on medicine and learned to mimic.
When it comes to diagnosing through inspections, listening, inquiring, and taking the pulse, she falls far behind those expert Chinese medicine practitioners.
The only thing she may have done right is to learn some rare prescriptions from the valuable ancient medical scriptures left by her master.
But Aubree was not ready to give up yet, there should be related records in the ancient medical scriptures left behind by her master.
Maybe, there would be a possible solution.
But Aubree had not given Madam Aria any hope nor did she plan to tell anyone about this.
After returning to Pethkids, she would find a chance to revisit the mountains.
The Old Lady chatted with her for a long time.
Finally, after a great deal of effort to lull Madam Aria to sleep, she adjusted the room temperature appropriately, closed the door and window, and left.
Loretta was crafting by the door.
Seeing Aubree come out, she asked with a smile, “Has the old lady gone to sleep?”
“Yes.”
Aubree rolled up her sleeves, “Let’s make dumplings.”
Loretta was a bit taken aback, “Now?”
“Now.”
Then the household helpers bustling in the kitchen were asked to leave, Loretta was rummaging through the fridge, “What kind of filling should we make?”
Aubree Groove putting on her apron said: “Coriander beef, are there chicken legs?
Braise a few more chicken legs.”
Loretta didn’t ask anything.
As Aubree kneaded the dough, she chopped the meat.
The two worked in tandem.
The sound of chopping at midnight almost made it sound like a bloody dismemberment scene.
Loretta glanced at Aubree’s smooth, unhindered movement.
“Ms.
Aubree …” she began.
Aubree, without lifting her head, replied, “Call me Aubree.”
“Aubree, I have watched the variety show that you were on.
I know your cooking is good.
However, it turns out to be better than I could have imagined.”
A Mistress, who should typically not lift a finger, had not only mastered frying and boiling, but all of the skills in the kitchen.
Significantly, she also possessed such a stable mentality.
Truly rare.
Aubree seemed to think of something and smiled.
“Cooking is very satisfying.
Only by putting your heart into making food, can you create delicious meals,” she said.
By the time they were done, it was nearly nine o’clock.
They had made over a hundred dumplings, enough for five adults to eat, along with a whole box of chicken legs and a bucket of bamboo fungus chicken soup.
“I’ll drive you to the hospital.”
Aubree shook her head, “My friend is waiting for me at the door.” She left without looking back after finishing her sentence.
Looking at the silhouette of the young girl fading in the night, Loretta sighed: “The young master has a great blessing.”
Such a good girl, who knows which lucky boy she would end up with.
Kelly Martinez drove Aubree to the hospital: “Today I found out that Virginia Frost is undoubtedly going to die this time.
The Lewis let her go, and Cello Cook definitely wouldn’t let her off, so don’t worry, she won’t be able to resist anymore.”
Aubree, looking at the scenery speeding by outside the window, said, “I wish the shot had hit me.”
“Then it would be the Aria family trying to fight with Virginia Frost.”
Peter Aria is a person who values feelings and righteousness.
His character is evident in the way he treats Aubree.
If something happens to Aubree at the hands of Virginia Frost, he will definitely fight back.
“Anton Cook is kind enough this time.
He used to chase after you all the time.
I thought he was overreaching, but now, I think this kid is a rare dedicated man.
I hope he can survive this.”
Aubree subconsciously touched the tear pearl around her neck, “He will make it.”
The nurse on duty, half-asleep, looked up at the sound of footsteps.
“Am I seeing things?
Or am I dreaming?”
The young lady approached: “I’m looking for Dr.
Aria.”
“You…
Do you have an appointment?”
The young lady shook her head: “No.”
At this moment, a young male doctor came over, his eyes bright, and said with great restraint: “Miss Aubree, hello, I am Dr.
Aria’s assistant, Mico Wood.
Dr.
Aria asked me to pick you up.
Please follow me.”
“Thank you.”
As soon as Aubree left, the two nurses on duty began to chatter excitedly.
“Isn’t that Aubree Groove?
She’s even more beautiful in real life.”
“What’s her relationship with Director Aria?
Director Aria even sent Dr.
Wood to pick her up.
Such special treatment.
I’m so envious.”
The lights were on in the office, and Peter Aria was perusing a text, without lifting his head he said: “Wait, I’ll be done soon.”
The office was silent, with no one disturbing him.
By the time Peter Aria was finished, it was half an hour later.
He lifted his head and saw Aubree sitting on the sofa, quietly reading a book.
On the table, the food box quietly rested in the warmer.
With a gentle gaze, Peter Aria asked, “Are you interested in medicine?”
The book Aubree was holding was an anatomy book that she had casually picked from the bookshelf.
Such a book could scare most girls, but Aubree was engrossed in it.
Peter Aria smiled.
What a promising medical apprentice she was.
