"Come, come, my friends. This is my precious granddaughter's clinic, Forever Clinic. Her medicine works like magic. I only had it for three days, and my high blood pressure and cholesterol level have gone down with no side effects," Priscilla introduced to her friends proudly.
When they passed by the herb display cabinet, one of them stopped. "Wait, aren't these the four herbs Dr. Shadow is looking for?"
Priscilla could tell that Everly was displaying those four herbs in such a conspicuous place on purpose to showcase her capabilities.
She was a bit cunning, but Priscilla liked it.
"Yes, do you know herbs as well?"
The wealthy lady answered, "Everyone's been talking about Dr. Shadow looking for herbs. I saw the photos online too. I heard that their prices have skyrocketed too. You're really something, Everly. Not even Dr. Shadow managed to buy these herbs, but you managed to do it!"
Everly linked arms with Priscilla, smiling sweetly. It's all thanks to Grandma's support. Thank you, Grandma."
As soon as she said that, Priscilla's friends understood the situation instantly.
They had been friends for decades, so they were aware that Catherine was Augustus' first love and Priscilla's rival!
Priscilla fell for Augustus when she was in university, but he liked Catherine at that time.
Unfortunately, the Chime family broke the poor couple apart because of Catherine's humble family background. Then, the Chimes paired him up with Priscilla.
Even though Priscilla's dream came true, Augustus could never forget about Catherine. Priscilla's friends knew of that.
The couple had many fights because of Catherine, so it was natural for Priscilla to resent Catherine.
After Catherine opened Youngworth Miracle Clinic in Jedburgh with Hera, they became competitors. Younworth Miracle Clinic even caused Chime Pharmaciteucal's stock price to fall for a period.
Therefore, it was no surprise that Catherine held grudges.
