From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 221

"Mr. Wright, this is Ms. Yeager."

Rebecca stood tall, a polite smile gracing her lips, "Kendrick, we meet again."

Audrey glanced at Rebecca, thoughts churning. Her suspicions were confirmed.

The young lady before her appeared to be around eighteen, with well-proportioned features. Not exactly stunning, but certainly nothing to scoff at either. However, her claim to remarkable healing abilities was truly extraordinary.

Beauty is for the eyes to behold, while medical skill saves lives.

Between the two, skill is undoubtedly the more precious.

Kendrick frowned, "The Miss Yeager I've been looking for isn't her!"

Rebecca's smile froze.

If not her, then who? Besides her, who else possessed the miraculous ability to snatch life from the jaws of death?

Was Kendrick losing his marbles, failing to recognize his own lifesaver?

"Kendrick," Rebecca pressed on, "Have you forgotten? I am a descendant of the legendary healer of the country, and it was my pill that cured your ailment."

Without her, Kendrick would likely be six feet under by now!

And yet, the ungrateful man had forgotten his own savior.

Rebecca felt a surge of indignation, nearly choked by Kendrick's ingratitude.

The debt of a life saved is immeasurable, and he had the audacity to forget her.

Kendrick waved dismissively, "I remember you, your last name is Morris, but that pill you gave me—I never took it! My illness was cured by Miss Yeager!"

Without another look at Rebecca’s face, Kendrick turned to Alex and said, "Alex, I'm looking for Miss Yeager! She is a very pretty young lady, a bit shorter than you, fairer skin too!"

Kendrick reminisced about Anthea’s appearance, describing her to Alex.

Rebecca was at a loss for words.

She had cured Kendrick, yet he denied it, insisting on crediting someone else as his savior.
