Years ago, Old Mr. Lancaster’s legs had been personally examined by Mr. Langford.
But at the time, even Mr. Langford, working together with top experts in both traditional and modern medicine from around the world, had been unable to find a solution.
Why would he suddenly appear at the Lancaster estate now?
Isabella’s pale face, upon hearing Mr. Langford’s name, suddenly brightened.
Mr. Langford!
This man was a million times more authoritative than that quack, Marcus Doyle!
With him here…
With his medical skills and reputation, there was no way Serena could fool him!
He would definitely expose Serena for the fraud she was!
If he said something, the family would absolutely believe him!
At this thought, Isabella immediately suppressed all her other emotions and put on a look of pure excitement. “Mr. Langford? Grandpa, it must be that the Global Medical Association has developed a new treatment for your legs!”
As she spoke, she shot a meaningful glance at Serena, who was still holding the silver needle.
In the presence of a true medical authority…
What was Serena?
The Lancaster family’s eyes widened, a hint of excitement coloring their features.
It was possible… Isabella could be right.
Other than that possibility…
They couldn’t think of any other reason why the incredibly busy and elusive Mr. Langford would suddenly pay them a visit.
Could it really be that a new treatment had been developed?
It was really him!
Mr. Langford had truly come!
Before Edward could step forward to greet him, Marcus Doyle, who was still slumped on the ground, saw him as a lifeline. A fawning, obsequious smile instantly spread across his face as he scrambled towards Mr. Langford. “Mr. Langford, sir! What brings you here in person? I’m Marcus Doyle, from the Vaelion City chapter. At last year’s conference, I even…”
Mr. Langford merely gave him a passing glance and raised a hand to cut off his rambling.
His gaze swept past everyone, landing squarely on the slender, stern figure standing by the treatment bed.
Mr. Langford’s eyes instantly filled with a fervent intensity.
Isabella, assuming Mr. Langford was looking at her grandfather’s legs, rushed forward, her face a perfect picture of excitement and anticipation. “Mr. Langford, are… are you here for my grandfather’s legs? Has the association developed a new treatment for him?”
Towards the end, her voice was on the verge of choking up. With red-rimmed eyes and clenched fists, she looked as though she was overcome with joy for her grandfather. “My sister was just about to perform massage on him. Thankfully… you arrived just in time.”
Her words were a masterful blend of concern and insinuation, perfectly designed to call Mr. Langford’s attention to Serena… and expose her as a fraud!
