Chapter 387 Yara Gets Exposed
“That’s very difficult, Mommy!” Clayton protested from the side.
He didn’t want to learn medicine from Natalie because there were far too many things to memorize for herbal medicine and acupuncture. To make matters worse, there were no mnemonics to aid memorization. One would have to forcefully memorize everything and learn to apply their knowledge by themselves later on.
Natalie wasn’t surprised when she heard what Clayton said. “The Esoteric Medical Doctrine is just a classical piece of literature used for introduction to traditional medicine. If she finds this difficult, then I think she should just give up on studying medicine.”
“Mommy, are you making this difficult for Sophia on purpose so she’ll quit on her own?” Xavian chimed in as well.
“If you insist on seeing it that way, then there’s nothing I can do about it,” Natalie replied with a helpless shrug.
Suddenly, Sophia walked up to her and said with a determined look in her eyes, “I’m going to memorize this, and I will learn medicine from you.”
Natalie didn’t say anything and simply took a sip of her orange juice.
I’m not going to make things easier for Sophia because there is no such thing as shortcuts when it comes to learning. If she can’t even handle a little suffering like this, then she isn’t worthy of me breaking the Bayer family’s rules.
Yara kicked the empty bottle beside her feet to the side as she slowly sobered up.
She then took a hot shower to wash the smell of booze off her body before putting on the latest coat from Hermès.
Having restored her usual graceful appearance, Yara went downstairs and saw Thomas waiting for her with a smile.
“Yara, why didn’t you tell me you were coming back?” he asked.
“It was a last-minute decision, so I didn’t really think about informing you. I’ll be keeping Old Mr. Bowers company in the hospital for the next few days, so I might be spending the night there,” Yara replied indifferently.
“While it is important for you to look after Old Mr. Bowers, you should also make sure to get enough rest. You’re going to marry Samuel sooner or later, so you shouldn’t have to do everything by yourself,” Thomas said while patting her on the shoulder.
Yara headed over to a fancy restaurant and ordered a herbal soup for takeout. Instead of having them store it in a takeout container, she requested for them to store it in a vacuum flask that she had brought.
Upon arrival at the hospital, Yara entered Kenneth’s ward with the flask of herbal soup.
“Hi, Grandpa! I spent five hours making this herbal soup for you…” She opened the flask and served him a bowl of it as she continued, “Here, try some…”
Kenneth didn’t move and simply glared at her with those old eyes of his.
His gaze was so intense that it gave Yara goosebumps.
“G-Grandpa? W-Why are you looking at me like this? Did I do something wrong?”
“Yara, we have known each other for a very long time. I thought I understood you very well, but now, I realize you aren’t exactly the person I thought you were.” Kenneth pursed his lips and asked after a brief pause, “Do you really know traditional medicine?”
