the old Mrs. Navarro couldn’t help but smile even more, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes piling up into a rose engraved with age.
Nodding along with Cedron’s words, “Fine, fine, even if it means teaching her, I’ll live well, that’s fine, right?”
Saying that, the tone of his voice turned again, with a few moments of surprise in his eyes, “What you said just now, is it that you’ve already agreed that Anna will follow me to learn medicine?”
“Can I argue with your old man?” Cedron asked rhetorically.
Of course I can’t!
Moreover, if Cedron objected, the old Mrs. Navarro would probably be even more motivated, and would directly insist on Anna.
The most important thing was that the old Mrs. Navarro was already very old.
Previously, when she had a disciple to choose from, she was still picking and choosing, and she couldn’t even look at one that fit her eyes.
Now that there is a suitable one, let’s consider it as the fulfillment of her wish, and toss it around as much as she wants!
As for whether or not Anna can learn these medical skills and put them to good use …
Cedron’s eyes suddenly sank, and the two hands hanging at his side secretly clenched.
He would make Anna obey.
–
Evening, Norhall Keep.
Anna had returned to the villa and was idly nestled on the sofa reading a magazine.
She’d rushed back from abroad, gotten off the plane to meet Amad, and was exhausted, not to mention called in to help with work at Cedron’s company.
Busy until now, finally had a chance to catch her breath.
Looking at it, I actually fell straight to sleep.
Didn’t even know when Cedron came back.
Cedron raised his steps, walked to Anna, and looked at this woman’s sleeping position.
A few wisps of playful hair slid down her fair and small cheeks, reflecting the red. Her lips became more and more colorful, and she looked like she was ready to be picked up.
Cedron’s throat rolled up and down for no reason.
But only for a moment.
In the next second, he resumed his indifferent appearance, raised his foot and kicked Anna, his voice cold, “Get up, don’t drip drool on my sofa.”
Anna woke up with pain.
Seeing Cedron in front of her, for a moment she thought she was dreaming.
So she rubbed her eyes vigorously again and muttered in a small voice, “It should be a dream, but why does it feel so real, so strange.”
Cedron was almost angry and laughed, “Open your eyes and wake up properly, this is not a dream, it’s reality.”
With that, he let out another harsh word, “If you don’t wake up for me in a hurry, I’ll have the maid press you right into the bathtub.”
Anna: “…”
I don’t know if it was Cedron’s words that did the trick, but Anna actually did shiver and wake up completely.
“Cedron, when did you get back?” Anna asked.
Cedron stared at her with a cold face, “What, now that you have Mr. Grant and Mrs. Grant to back you up, so there’s no one else in sight, do I need to report to you even if I go back to my own home?”
Anna bristled, “Of course I didn’t mean that, I just fell asleep and didn’t hear you come back, so I asked.”
If she wasn’t happy, she just wouldn’t ask.
“Go upstairs, change your clothes and come with me.” Cedron ordered.
“Go where?” Anna asked him subconsciously.
What answered her was Cedron’s increasingly cold eyes.
Well, it wasn’t her turn to ask what decisions this man made.
She just had to follow him!
Anna resigned herself to her fate and turned around to go upstairs, ready to change her clothes.
At this time, a loving and incomparable voice came from outside the door, “Anna, are you at home, I’m coming to find you!”
