Outside the crowd, Percival and Leopold Sterling watched the scene unfold before them in astonishment.
They knew Vivienne had some incredible medical skills, but they never expected that she could save someone from the brink of death.
"I never thought there would be anyone with better medical skills than the Mystic Mistress in this world. Mr. Ellington, you hit the jackpot by marrying Ms. Vivienne." Leopold said, looking quite hyped.
Who in the world could guarantee that they would never get sick in their lifetime?
Especially for people like them who lived life on the edge. They could be ambushed any day.
Having someone with top-notch medical skills by their side was like having an extra life.
Percival nodded. "Indeed."
Vivienne packed up her acupuncture kit and said to the lady, "She's out of immediate danger, but you should still take her to the hospital for a thorough check-up."
After examining Clara, Vivienne knew that the elderly always had various health issues. So, even though she managed to save Clara's life, the remaining issues were minor but still had to be attended to. A trip to the hospital and maintaining her medicine would sort them out.
"I don’t need any payment."
With that, Vivienne, hand in hand with Thaddeus, was about to leave when she noticed someone filming with their phone.
The culprit was a guy in his twenties.
Vivienne walked up to him and patted his shoulder. "Filming and uploading to social media without my permission? I'll hold you accountable."
The young guy looked nervous. "Miss, you saved someone. If this gets on social media, you'll become super famous. Don't you want that?"
"I don't." Vivienne replied casually, "Delete it."
Before the guy could say anything else, Vivienne had already taken his phone, did some swift finger work, and the video was deleted.
"Hey, you..." Before the guy could react, Vivienne was already gone.
Vivienne walked out of the crowd and spotted Percival and the others immediately.
Isolde ran over and hugged her leg. "Vivienne."
The little girl was short, so whenever she wanted to hug Vivienne, she could only reach her legs.
Vivienne patted her head and smiled. "When did you get here?"
"We've been here since you started treating the person." They arrived at Tranquil Estates a little after Vivienne left.
Plus, they drove here, so they arrived just minutes after Vivienne.
There was no parking spot nearby, so they planned to park somewhere close and coincidentally saw Vivienne.
Vivienne hadn’t noticed them. “Let’s go.”
Isolde waved at Thaddeus. “Thaddeus.”
Thaddeus smiled back. “Isolde.”
Thaddeus was only two months older than Isolde, but every time she saw him, she made sure to greet him properly.
Besides Percival, who was being pushed in a wheelchair by Thomas, everyone else was walking.
Recalling the scene of Vivienne saving the person, Leopold asked, "Ms. Vivienne, who'd you learn your medical skills from? They are quite impressive."
