From Ashes to Queen: Now Call the Shots

Chapter 133 Eugene Regrets Everything Immediately

If he had seen this report in the hospital, he probably would’ve thought the patient just needed a few days of medication to recover.

But now that the report had Rebecca’s name on it, Eugene even began to doubt his own medical skills. When Rebecca was first found, she’d been examined.

Her kidneys had been severely damaged.

Without a transplant, she probably wouldn’t have survived for long.

That was why the Joyner family had gone to such lengths, weaving an elaborate lic to lure Scarlett into coming willingly.

All of it, every single move, had been for the sake of giving Rebecca a new kidney.

And now they were telling him, it had all been a mistake!

A complete mistake!

The report was passed around among the Joyner family.

Everyone’s expressions gradually darkened.

Then came the uneasy glances exchanged between them.

Stanley was the first to lose his cool.

“So, Rebecca never needed a transplant in the first place? Then why did the original tests show otherwise…”

He whipped his head around to look at Eugene.

“Eugene, if I remember correctly, you were the one who ran those tests when she was found!”

Every head turned toward Eugene.

When they’d found Rebecca, she’d been pale and gaunt–clearly someone who had suffered from long- term illness.

So they’d run a full body exam.

That’s when they discovered the kidney issues.

“I can guarantee there was nothing wrong with the original test.”

Even as he said it, his mind was in total chaos.

All he could see was that moment years ago when they brought Rebecca in.

He’d taken her to the hospital for tests. And he’d been worried she’d resist, so he patiently talked her through it.

Nothing seemed off back then!

After confirming she needed a transplant, he’d paid even closer attention to her health, running check–ups

Once the family had agreed to find a matching donor, Scarlett had been brought into the Joyner family.

After that, Rebecca stopped cooperating with further tests.

She had said that now that someone was around to accompany the family, she could finally let go.

He’d been terrified, too scared to push her, so he coaxed her into doing two check–ups per year.

Each one showed she still needed a transplant. Everything seemed fine!

He slapped his forehead.

John’s words came back to him. Could someone have been covering up Rebecca’s true condition?

“Rebecca is okay?”

Martha slowly came back to her senses, overcome with joy.

“That’s wonderful, Rebecca’s really okay!”

She wiped her tears.

Then her hand froze.

If Rebecca was healthy, then the request for medical bail she had just been considering didn’t make any

sense anymore.

Which meant, the medical report ended up in Franklin’s hands.

He didn’t really read it–his eyes kept darting around.

He tried to avoid the rest of the Joyner family and stayed huddled in a corner.

From time to time, he snuck glances at Martha’s reaction.

Stanley asked, “If Rebecca’s been fine for a while, then what about the past two years–her symptoms, her various health issues? How do you explain that?”

Martha was stunned by the question. That’s right! If Rebecca had recovered, how could she have shown symptoms that only kidney patients would have? Was it all a coincidence? Or had we been deceived?

She was Rebecca’s mother, and she loved her with all her heart. She would’ve given her everything. Why would Rebecca hide something like this from me? Why keep me in constant fear and worry?

Eugene’s gaze slowly drifted back to Scarlett.

“Is it possible someone went through unimaginable hardship to cure Rebecca’s illness?”

The implication was clear.

When Rebecca first returned, the tests had been correct; she had needed a transplant.

But after Connor found her and brought her back to the Joyner family, someone had quietly healed her over the course of the past two years, until she no longer needed the surgery.

“That’s impossible!”

Martha immediately rejected the idea.

“The doctor said back then that a transplant was her only option! That was a specialist–a nephrology expert! Who could possibly be more credible than him? And besides, Rebecca’s been eating and living with us this whole time. She hasn’t…”

She trailed off.

A realization hit her like a slap in the face.

Like the others, her stunned and suspicious gaze landed squarely on Scarlett.

For the past two years, the only difference between Rebecca and the rest of them was the daily herbal supplements.

Scarlett had combed through ancient prescriptions, waking up early every morning to brew those tonics.

No one had paid much attention.

In their minds, it was no different from drinking millet porridge.

The reason they let Scarlett keep making it was that they thought she’d taken over what didn’t belong to her and should make it up to Rebecca.

Making her do the grunt work–they figured it was still too good for her.

“Those herbal supplements are just health tonics, right? You all don’t really believe that stuff actually worked, do you?”

“Eugene, you’re a kidney specialist. You say something!”

Everyone’s eyes snapped over to Eugene in unison.

Even Franklin looked uneasy.

“Eugene, tell me, you were the one who arranged for someone to help Rebecca, right? You were just waiting to surprise us? And because of that, Rebecca can’t use her health as an excuse to get out of jail. You feel guilty, so you’re keeping quiet about it–is that it?”

Martha immediately latched on to that version of events,

She trusted her son’s medical expertise.

And she refused, absolutely refused, to believe that Scarlett had done somethi
