Everyone in the room stood up to show their respect and sympathy for her.
The old chief's wife was a little weak, and even her eyelids were red and swollen. Besides, there were dark circles under her eyes. She needed the help of others to walk around.
Amelie seemed to be very close to her. Though she was always cold and arrogant, she was very considerate and tried to please her. She helped the old day stand straight and comforted her. "Don't be too sad. I believe my godfather will get better!"
"I hope so!" The old lady wiped the corners of her eyes.
"Let me help you sit down first!" Amelie said softly.
After helping her to sit down, she looked up and met Anthea's eyes. She was stunned at once and soon narrowed her eyes.
The old lady looked around and asked, "Have you invited c here?"
"Madam, long time no see!" Vincent came forward and shook hands with her.
The old lady nodded with relief. "Long time no see, Mr. Zanon. I'm so relieved that you can come over!"
Vincent smiled modestly.
After taking their seats, they continued to discuss the chief's illness.
Anthea sat down with her teacher Vincent.
The old chief had a pivotal position in the army. Thus, a medical group was built up to treat his disease.
"According to his current situation, I suggest conservative treatment!"
"He is over 60 years old, so his immunity is not as strong as that of young people. He just had heart surgery last winter and has not yet recovered. Besides, he has diabetes and high blood pressure, which may cause serious complications!"
"The tumor shows no sign of growth, so we can take medical treatment to reduce the pain of the old chief!"
"I agree. Conservative treatment is the best choice for the old chief at present!"
While the military doctors were discussing, the other people all listened with grave expressions.
Anthea also looked thoughtfully at the test reports, inspection reports, and X-rays.
Adam was sitting at the end of the table. His dark eyes ignored the crowd and fixed only on her. Without a single winking, he stared at her serious face taut with concentration.
When Amelie saw him looking at Anthea, she secretly clenched her fingers under the table.
After listening to their advice, the old lady turned to Vincent and said, "Mr. Zanon, what do you think?"
Vincent replied, "Madam, due to my physical condition, I stopped treating people six months ago!"
"Oh, is that so?" The old lady heard it and looked anxious. "I specially asked someone to invite you here to treat my husband, but you tell me that you no longer accept any patients. What about my husband..."
Vincent said calmly, "So, I bring my student here!"
Everyone was stunned.
Anthea was also surprised. "Mr. Zanon?"
She thought that she was accompanying him here as an assistant. However, she did not expect him to come up with such an idea.
Nevertheless, this also indicated that he recognized her ability!
Anthea felt warm in her heart.
Everyone showed a stunned expression on their faces and looked at Anthea in unison.
She was no longer the little girl who was still studying in medical school six years ago. The hint of childish roundness around her chin also disappeared. She looked more mature and was now a beautiful and graceful lady. Nevertheless, she was still very young.
Hence, the others did not trust her ability.
