Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 1136

"Nothing's guaranteed, but it's worth a try."

Anna didn't want to sound overly certain and risk losing credibility, so she left herself a bit of room.

Michelle studied the woman in front of her. She did seem sincere.

Still, she understood why the bodyguards had tried to drive her away. But Nick was already this ill—whether the woman was a fraud or not hardly mattered anymore. Hearing her out wouldn't cost anything.

Michelle stepped out of the car, tossed the keys to a bodyguard, and said, "I'll handle this. Go park the car."

The bodyguard hesitated. Michelle wasn't someone they could afford to offend. After a brief pause, he nodded and followed her instructions.

"Thank you for trusting me. But… could you take me to see Nick?"

Anna didn't give up. She hurried after Michelle.

Michelle curled her lips in a faint, careless smile. "Sure. But Nick is recuperating—he's not someone you can see just because you want to. I'd get scolded for it too. So how are you going to prove you can treat a terminal illness?"

After a moment's thought, Anna pulled a newspaper from her bag.

"This is a case my father handled. It was reported in the papers. An elderly man in Muliner City was in the late stages of a terminal illness, but my father cured him with an alternative remedy. The report is real—it just didn't get much attention, and there's no official recognition."

As she spoke, she took out her academic credentials. She was a top student from a medical university and had internship certifications from several well-known hospitals.

Her father practiced alternative medicine. He had devoted himself to studying lost pharmacological knowledge, focusing on helping patients who couldn't afford treatment, or those whom hospitals had already given up on, left only to wait for death.

But his work was thankless. In ten years, he had cured only a handful of terminal cases. Naturally, his methods weren't widely accepted—not even by Anna herself in the past.

"Every time modern medicine fails, people start talking about alternative remedies. Sounds more like psychological comfort to me," Michelle said with a dismissive shrug. "But since you're not a scammer, come with me."

She didn't actually believe this woman could cure Nick. Still, the intent seemed genuine. And besides, Nick wasn't seeing anyone—she needed an excuse to visit him.
