Chapter 24 Her Audacity

Neither looked away.

Annelise’s gaze, especially clear and direct, continued to study his face.

As a selfprofessed connoisseur of beauty, Annelise had admired many handsome men, but none compared to the one before her now.

His pallid complexion was perfectly offset by deep, unfathomable eyes that held a natural chill when they regarded anyone.

He carried an air of scholarly refinement, both aristocratic and tragically fragile, a combination rarely seen.

The chaotic hospital environment did not seem to affect him.

He stood like a nobleman from a bygone era, poised and immaculate.

Annelise saw Jonathon spot the man and immediately hurried over, speaking animatedly.

Through the medical glass, she couldn’t hear the conversation, but she raised a curious eyebrow.

A moment later, the man’s gaze returned to her. The warm, low light spilled around him, softening his features into an alluring, indistinct blur that was oddly captivating.

Dr. Caldwell?Adrian’s voice was cool.

Jonathon’s reply was effusive, bordering on fawning. Yes! I found her at the community square. Don’t let her age fool you. Her skills are miraculous! She had Sir Caldwell’s fever down in just ten minutes!

Adrian seemed about to ask more.

But just then, Annelise, having finished her procedure, pushed through the doors and walked out. She spoke to Freddy beside her as she moved. Monitor the patient’s temperature closely these next two days. No antibiotics are needed. Increase nebulizer treatments. I’ll write a prescription list shortly. Have it filled precisely. I’ll return at the same time tomorrow to continue the specialized treatments.

Freddy was considered the most medically gifted among the younger generation of the Pennington family. Yet now, he felt utterly ordinary.

He had never admired anyone so much. Not even winning awards abroad had excited him like this. He looked at Annelise, his eyes shining. Dr. Caldwell, I’ve noted everything I just wanted to ask, may I learn that technique you used earlier?

Other doctors, equally curious, subtly gathered around.

They didn’t dare hope Annelise would teach them. Such unique methods were rarely shared

To their surprise, she lifted her chin slightly, her tone matteroffact. Fine. Everyone, take notes. I won’t repeat myself. I’ll explain the key points twice. Grasp them as you will.

Her demeanor was so practiced, as if she had taught this way before, not just once, and not just to one person, but to a large group, all seated and learning from her.

The doctors could almost picture the scene.

They wondered, She’s just a young woman. Where does this veteran doctoraura come from?

Is she secretly an octogenarian scholar? How else to explain her commanding presence?Adrian stood outside the circle, watching the scene with a faint, rare trace of amusement.

Patrick, however, was drenched in cold sweat. He dabbed his forehead with a handkerchief and approached Adrian nervously, ready to explain himself.
