Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87 Cedric was seething with rage .

As a renowned medical expert , having his granddaughter seek treatment from an outsider felt like a direct insult to his abilities , implying he was useless .

Fine then , Grandpa ! Francesca snapped , her cheeks puffing with anger .

Go ahead and cure me right now .

I dont want to live with this condition anymore ! Cedric immediately deflated , forcing an awkward laugh .

Fran , you know Ive been researching your condition to find a cure .

Just give me a few more years , and I promise Ill heal you .

Thats exactly what you said three years ago , Francesca replied , her voice heavy with sadness .

How many more years can I wait ? Im already 28.

Do you want to watch me grow old with this condition ? Tears welled up in Francescas eyes as her emotions got the better of her .

Cedrics expression softened as he sighed .

Youre right , sweetheart .

Its my fault .

But how can this young man accomplish what I couldnt ? Francesca bit her lip and admitted , I dont know if Andrew can cure my condition , but I want to give it a try ! Cedric turned to Andrew with a stern gaze .

Are you truly capable of this ? Youll find out soon enough , Andrew replied calmly .

As Cedric seemed to consider the proposition , Simon quickly intervened .

Mr.

Aicker , you cant trust this fraud ! Cedric was confused .

Fraud ? Simon continued his protest , He clearly has ulterior motives for Francesca .

Think about it- treating her condition would require intimate examinations .

We cant allow that ! Simons right , Cedric stated , shaking his head .
