After knowing Who She Is They Kneeled novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81

Madam Whitman stood up, leaning on her cane. “Whether to reopen the Silverleaf… I need to think about it careful- ly.”

Annelise chuckled softly. “Grandma, you don’t have to rush. It’s just that when there are more good doctors, the bad ones will naturally decrease. Don’t you think?”

Madam Whitman paused. “You’re right. I’ve lived for most of my life, and I still don’t see things as clearly as our An- nelise.”

Annelise didn’t push it, not forcing the old woman to decide immediately, giving her time for her internal struggle.

After all, causing a patient’s death is a difficult hurdle for any doctor who truly believes in the Hippocratic oath.

Lenny also knew what Annelise was planning. Late at night, after the old woman was asleep.

He took his pile of what looked like scrap metal and, with a few clicks and clacks, assembled it into a small laptop.

The Wolfdog outside the courtyard was barking, but one look from Lenny and it immediately fell silent!

The Wolfdog stretched its paws forward, its body curled into a ball, trembling.

The neighbor, Auntie Zhang, had seen Lenny with this thing before; she thought it was a toy.

In reality, after Annelise’s training, Lenny could assemble it into a laptop if he wanted, or a drone if he wanted. It was just that the assembly methods and the parts used were different.

Annelise watched him finally find the location and raised an eyebrow. “The people who framed Grandma back then aren’t in Criford, but in Brookford?”

Lenny nodded emphatically.

Annelise stood under the tree, rolling an Acacia flower between her fingers, her eyes deep and contemplative.

“Brookford… It’s really been a long time since I’ve been back.

She flicked the Acacia flower into her teacup, her expression calm. “No rush. Let’s wait for Grandma to get the Sil- verleaf running first.”

Lenny brought out a rocking chair and a stone stool, sat down in the courtyard, and then gestured with his hands: You want Grandma to regain her confidence in treating people?

Annelise was sitting in the rocking chair, holding a wicker hand fan, dressed in a black t-shirt and long pants, looking distinctly beautiful. “It’s not just for Grandma.”

Lenny was sitting on the stone stool, gnawing on a Ginseng Root. He looked up, not seeming to care much: What else?

“You should go to school too.”

Annelise’s voice was light. “And you should dye your hair. Haven’t you noticed the white roots showing?”

Lenny was shocked by her words. He sat up straight, forgetting even the high-quality Ginseng Root, and gestured ex- citedly!

Annelise spoke slowly, “No. There’s no work for you here. If we really reopen the Silverleaf, you’d be considered child labor. If the Bureau of Commerce finds out, the clinic will be shut down.

If we lose our home, where will you get your food and drinks?

Besides, what eleven-year-old kid doesn’t go to school?”

Lenny instantly looked like life had lost all meaning, utterly despising the idea of school.

Annelise looked at him. “We also need to sort out your household registry. I’m worried you’d scare the teachers if you went to school in Criford. Let’s go to Brookford. It’s a blessed land that breeds talent, a good fit for you.”
