She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor - Chapter 12

She paused in her speech, looking utterly heartbroken and helpless.
Waylon Lewis’s pupils shrank violently, a nd the icy coldness in his eyes was replaced
by profound sorrow.
“You said you had controlled Grandpa’s condition before, so how could it suddenly
become serious?” Christopher’s urgent, grave voice sounded.

Joy Ward, yelled at, bit her lip and shook her he ad, looking aggrieved.
Grandpa Lewis’s heart disease was very severe to begin with; she could only
temporarily control the onset of his illness with increased medication. To those
unfamiliar with medicine, it seemed as though Grandpa’s complexion had impro ved,
creating the illusion of recovery.
In this manner, her act of saving Grandpa Lewis would earn her favor with the Lewis
Family, and with this act of grace, her chances of successfully proposing marriage to
Waylon would be much higher.
Moreover, she did n’t want Grandpa to wake up. This old man had always opposed her
marrying Waylon in the past few years. His death would be to her advantage.
She had originally intended to increase the dosage, ensuring that Grandpa wouldn’t die
from illness before her marriage to Waylon; after the wedding, no matter how he died,
she could easily claim that Grandpa was old, that a sudden illness took him, and th at
she had done her best. It wouldn’t be her fault.
But she never expected the old man to be so feeble. Before she had the chance to
marry Waylon, he was dying.
Hope Williams was so frantic she was nearly in tears, her eyes red and her whole body
trembling . She grabbed Waylon’s hand, “Please!”
“Waylon, I beg you to let me see Grandpa, I have a way, a way to save him!”
Grandpa couldn’t wait any longer; there could be no more delays, truly.
Waylon’s eyes narrowed, but Hope had already rushed past all restrain t.
“Pull her back. Hope, do you still want to harm Elder Lewis?”
A servant moved to pull her away.
“Nobody touch her,” Waylon commanded coldly. For some reason, upon seeing the
girl’s frantic expression, he softened inside and subconsciously wanted to beli eve her.
“Waylon?” Alitzel Williams looked at her son with some surprise. He used to detest
Hope; why was he now protecting her at every turn?
Hope sat beside Elder Lewis, and with Waylon’s backing, nobody dared touch her. She
calmed down and examined Elde r Lewis.
The Lewis Family had made thorough medical preparations in Elder Lewis’s room.
Hope’s brows furrowed with concern; it was clearly symptoms of heart failure, and it had

been ongoing for a while. Elder Lewis was extremely weak now and might not surv ive if
taken off the ventilator.
Hope took out a Silver Needle from her bag, pinching it between two fingers, pausing
momentarily. Using the Acupuncture Technique on Elder Lewis at this time was the best
and riskiest way to save his life.
The best treatmen t for such severe heart disease was a heart transplant, but for some
reason, given the many renowned doctors surrounding him, Hope couldn’t fathom why
Elder Lewis had missed the optimal window for treatment. Now, they had no choice but
to take a risky path .
“Grandpa, don’t worry, I’ll definitely save you.”
“Miss Williams, what do you intend to do to Old Master Lewis?” Just as Hope was about
to begin acupuncture, Joy suddenly shouted.
Joy’s exclamations immediately drew the attention of others; Alitzel moved forward
swiftly, seizing Hope’s hand, which held the Silver Needle.
Everyone crowded around the bed.
“Hope, Elder Lewis was never unkind to you, and now that he’s in this state, you still
want to harm him. What is your intention?” Alitzel had never liked Hope from five years
ago, and now the hostility was even stronger, with anger raging in her eyes as she
berated Hope.
“I’m not, I want to save Grandpa,” Hope retorted, her brows tightly knitted.
She knew that every wasted second delayed Elder Lewis’s condi tion.
At this, Joy’s eyes shifted, and a mocking, cold smile curled at the corners of her mouth
directed at Hope, “Miss Williams, you were expelled from school, didn’t even finish your
sophomore year, and now you’re probably not even a doctor. How can you save
Grandpa? His body is very weak already; he can’t withstand your meddling.”
Joy’s voice was soft and gentle, emanating thick advice and helplessness, appearing to
be completely for the sake of Elder Lewis.
Only Hope knew that everything Joy was saying was laced with scorn for her.
Hope slightly turned her head to look at Joy, her face displaying nothing but urgency,
“Let go.”
“Miss Williams, perhaps you shouldn’t exacerbate Grandpa’s condition…”

Hope, out of patience with Joy’s incessant chatter, flicke d her hand away.
Staggering, Joy fell toward Waylon, who reached out to steady her, his expression
indifferent.
“Waylon…”
Joy’s gentle call and her beautifully fragile appearance, filled with vulnerability and
helplessness, and seeming greatly wronged, moved all to pity. Her attempts at gentle
persuasion cast Hope in the light of being unreasonable and unruly.
And Waylon’s ga ze on her carried a hint of reprimand.
Hope’s lips twisted in bitterness.
Alitzel spoke out to chastise, “Hope, you dare be presumptuous in my Lewis Family’s
house? Someone, throw her out.”
Hope’s heart tightened, and her gaze instinctively sought Waylon’s . In his deep, dark
eyes, his towering figure shielded her from the bodyguards.
His profound gaze met hers.
In that moment, Hope felt a surge of intense expectation from the depths of her heart.
Would he believe her?
Waylon…
“I’ll have someone send you bac k.”
The man’s icy voice caused Hope’s entire being to shudder, all her wild expectations
crashing down, shattered.
It was just like five years ago, when she told him full of hope that they would have a
baby, and he responded by giving her a check, telling her to get rid of it.
Waylon was always so cruel to her.
Tears trembled in her eyes, but ultimately she couldn’t hold back a scornful laugh.
“Miss Williams, please.” Thomas Hughes stepped forward, showing much more
courtesy than the Lewis Family’s bodyguar ds towards this former lady.
“I won’t leave.” Hope knew that if she left, Grandpa would truly be beyond saving.
Whether as Hope or as a Doctor, she couldn’t leave.

“Thomas,” Waylon barked.
Thomas was torn and conflicted — on one hand, he couldn’t disobey his master’s
command, and on the other hand, he found himself unable to be harsh with this former
lady as he would with any other woman.
In his dilemma, he could only look to Wyatt Lewis for help.
Wyatt was also struggling with what to do and hesitated briefl y before addressing Hope,
“Sister - in - law, maybe… for Grandpa…”
Wyatt’s words hung unfinished as his gaze shifted from Hope to Elder Lewis on the bed,
who with a trembling effort lifted a hand.
