The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 89

Doreen was taken aback by the high cost of the medicine and didn't know what to do. The main problem was that she was deceived by Arabella before, and the reputation of Vivienne was not good, so she was worried about being deceived again.

But Bertha, without hesitation, said, "We're willing to foot the bill, I think that's how it should be. Arabella didn't charge a cent and almost killed my granddaughter. You charge but Faye looks so much better now, so we're willing to pay."

She trusted Clara. Although others might deceive her, Clara wouldn't, so she believed in Vivienne's medical skills.

Plus, she could tell just by looking, Vivienne's methods of treatment were different from hospital doctors. Most importantly, Dr. Marcus didn't spot any problem with the prescription, but Vivienne saw the problem at a glance.

That's not something anyone without real skills could do.

As for the high charges, she felt it was reasonable. Apart from the 50,000 consultation fee, the rest were medicine fees.

According to hospital standards, a consultation fee of 50,000 was indeed high, but for Vivienne to demand this much, it showed confidence in her own medical skills.

High medicine costs meant good quality medicine. She knew many rare medicinal herbs were expensive, so she felt it was worth it if the money could cure Faye's illness and her face.

Vivienne nodded and said, "Alright, wait for another ten minutes. After I remove the needle, you can pay. I'll come for treatment every day for the next three days. The pills need to be taken on an empty stomach at six in the morning. Keep her diet light and the windows open for ventilation."

Vivienne paused and said, "The medicine Arabella prescribed before cannot be taken anymore. If you don't listen to me and anything unexpected happens, I won't take responsibility and won't continue the treatment."

Doreen immediately agreed, "Don't worry, her medicine almost killed Faye. I will never let Faye take it again."

Vivienne nodded and stopped talking.

Ten minutes later, Faye woke up and saw a strange woman in the room. She panicked and hid in the corner of the bed, lowering her head, not letting Vivienne see her.

Doreen got on the bed and hugged Faye, crying, "Faye, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't do my research last time and blindly trusted Arabella, causing you to suffer. Rest assured, this Ms. Hawthorn's medical skills are good. She pulled you back from the brink of death, and she can cure your face."

"Mum, I don't want to treat my face anymore, I don't want to treat it anymore," Faye shook her head, not lifting it up, she was scared of people seeing her face.

"Faye, don't be like this, it breaks my heart..." Doreen cried even harder, "I want you to be healthy, to live like a normal person. I worry about you like this."

"Mum, I beg you, don't push me, I really don't want to be treated anymore." Faye also started crying, "If you push me any further, just let me die!"

"How can I let you die? You're my daughter!"

They cried together, with no one else able to intervene.

Vivienne looked at Faye and said to Doreen, "Ms. Doreen, let me have a few words with Ms. Faye."

"This..." Doreen hesitated, remembering the look of disgust in Arabella's eyes when she saw Faye last time.

Faye became more self-conscious after this incident. If Vivienne hit her again, she might really lose the courage to continue her life.

"Let Ms. Hawthorn talk," Bertha said. "Since we chose to let Ms. Hawthorn treat her, we have to trust her."

Just through brief contact, Bertha found Vivienne to be completely different from Arabella.

Things hadn't been going so well for the Baker family in recent years, and Arabella's demeanor clearly showed her disdain for them, and she didn't care about Faye at all.

But Vivienne, from her entrance till now, though her face was expressionless, she didn't show any dislike for them.

Bertha didn't know why, she just trusted Vivienne.

"Alright then." Seeing Bertha say that, Doreen made way.
