His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1324

Austin strode off, no longer putting on an act. Lily did not bother stopping him since she had not invited him and did not want to allow him into her home in the first place.

Anastasia remained quiet when she noticed Lily’s silence. ‘If the house owner hasn’t asked him to stay, who am I to say anything?’

Maria looked at them and the leaving man before she hurried after him. “Mr. Fike? Mr. Fike! Miracle Doctor!” She shouted when she realized he was not stopping.

Austin suddenly stopped and spun around to look at Maria in rage. “Don’t call me ‘miracle doctor’ ever again! If that woman is up to the task, why don’t you let her treat your niece?”

He walked off sternly, no longer paying any attention to Maria.

Maria caught herself after two seconds and hurriedly gave chase. “Mr. Fike, don’t let ignorant people upset you. It isn’t worth it. That Mrs. Russell is just a pampered woman who is out of touch with the world!

“How would she know how good you are? She’s just an ignorant hillbilly, so please don’t mind her. Besides, the whole nation knows you’re an excellent doctor. Who is she to question your credibility?

“Now that you’ve seen my niece’s condition, don’t you feel sorry for her as a doctor? Also, her father is Secretary Rollins. If you could cure her, he would surely reward you handsomely. Aren’t you experimenting? If you need anything, I’m sure he could help you. You…”

Austin reached the gate, opened his car door, and turned to look at her. “Mrs. Moore, I need the patient to cooperate even if I’m willing to conduct the treatment. As you saw, Lily Christian had deceived your niece, and she would only listen to her. I’m afraid I can’t help you!”

“No, she’s just a young girl. What does she know? She’s just—”

Austin continued without waiting for her to finish, “If you want my help, there’s a way. Tell your niece that if she wants to get well, she must listen to me. There’s nothing I can do if she listens to random words by random people.”

Maria nodded repeatedly. “Of course, she would listen to you. Who else to listen to but the miracle doctor? Rest assured that I’ll…”

As she proclaimed her determination, Austin got into the car, fastened the seatbelt, and stuck his head out the window. “Since you said so, look for me after you communicate with her.”

“Also…” With his index finger pointing up, he gestured as he said, “Do not let this happen again. I don’t want any laypersons spouting nonsense aside while I treat the patient.”

“Yes, I understand!” Maria answered, looking on as Austin started the car and drove off.

…

Meanwhile, Anastasia was still chit-chatting with Lily. “Lily, my aunt said the person just now is a miracle doctor, but why did you treat him like your enemy?”

“He’s hardly an enemy,” Lily said casually. ‘I only dislike him.’

“So, is he a miracle doctor?” Anastasia was curious.
