Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot-Chapter 1013 - 283: Is Rachel Barton the killer?! A direct slap in the face_6

Once Nathaniel Besian arrives and pinpoints the cause of the disease, Viola Thompson can get cured.

Rachel Barton happened to overhear this.

A heavy sense of mockery filled her eyes.

Find Nathaniel Besian?

That's ridiculous.

If Nathaniel Besian were that easy to find, he wouldn't be the apprentice of the Divine Doctor Suen.

Although that's what she was thinking, Rachel didn't show it outwardly. She walked over to the two of them and said, "Little Violet is right, Diana. We can't afford to be pessimistic now. Isn't Mr. Lentz already out looking for Nathaniel Besian? We have to trust Mr. Lentz!"

Trust Terrence Lentz?

Trusting Terrence Lentz is less plausible than believing it would rain red rain from the sky.

Diana nodded, "Hmm."

Mrs. Thompson's sickroom.

After the heartbreak, everyone was discussing how to find Nathaniel Besian.

Mrs. Thompson was hanging on to her last breath, presumably to see Viola recover.

They must fulfill Mrs. Thompson's wish.

"Mr. Thompson!"

At that moment, the voice of the director came from outside the sickroom.

Sawyer Thompson stood up from his chair, "Director Cooper."

Director Cooper's face was ecstatic, "Mr. Thompson, I have good news."

Hearing this, Sawyer's eyes instantly filled with light, "Is there news from Mr. Besian?"

"Not exactly, but it's close," Director Cooper continued: "Do you know about Hikari, the divine doctor from Country Polluton? She happened to be visiting Capital City, and after hearing about Miss Thompson's situation, she came to the hospital hoping she could examine Miss Thompson."

Hikari is a renowned divine doctor in Polluton.

She is just known to be somewhat cranky and not easily persuaded.

"Really?" asked Sawyer Thompson.

Director Cooper nodded, "She is right in the office now. If you agree, we can let Divine Doctor Hikari take a look at Miss Thompson's condition."

"Yes, yes!"

At a time like this, Sawyer naturally wouldn't miss any opportunities that could help Viola.

Director Cooper continued, "I will ask Miss Hikari to come over now."

"Thank you so much!"

"It's what I should do," said Director Cooper.

After a short while.

Director Cooper brought a person dressed in exotic clothes and wearing a face veil into the room.

"Mr. Thompson, let me introduce - this is Divine Doctor Hikari," he paused and turned to Hikari, "Divine Doctor Hikari, this is Miss Thompson's father, Mr. Thompson."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Thompson, I'm Hikari."

Hikari clasped her hands together, performing a standard Polluton greeting.

The news that the divine doctor was coming to save Viola thrilled Diana and the others.

Despite the shock, Rachel hid it well and followed Diana and the others to Mrs. Thompson's sickroom.

The moment she saw Divine Doctor Hikari.

Rachel squinted her eyes.

A cold smile formed in her heart.

What divine doctor?

This was clearly someone out to claim Viola's life.

Although the Hikari in front of her had changed her outfit, Rachel could still recognize at a glance that this was the woman who had given her the medicine that day.

She didn't know what kind of grudges she had with Viola.

To the point where she even followed her into the hospital.

Mary Perryne, oblivious to the situation, approached Hikari with teary eyes, "Divine Doctor Hikari, please think of a way to save my daughter."

Hikari replied with a smile: "Don't worry, I will do my best to treat Miss Thompson."

"Please help her."

Not long after.

Hikari, wearing an anti-bacterial suit, followed the director and others into the Intensive Care Unit.

A long time passed.

They finally emerged from the Intensive Care Unit.

Sawyer Thompson asked anxiously, "Divine Doctor Hikari, my daughter, can she be saved?"

"There is hope, but..."

As she spoke, Hikari paused.

"But what?"

Mary Perryne immediately asked.

Hikari sighed, "Miss Thompson has contracted a very rare Arnous Worm Disease, and the virus has now gathered in her limbs. To save her, amputation is necessary."

At her words, Mary Perryne's face turned white.

Amputation?

No!

Impossible!

Viola is still so young.

She couldn't lose her legs.

"Divine Doctor, I beg you, I implore you! Is there really no other way?" Mary Perryne knelt down in front of Hikari.

Hikari sighed, "I'm very sorry, Mrs. Thompson, but I have no other solutions."

Tears instantly streaked Mary's face.

What to do?

What should she do?

Why did fate have to deal her such a hand?

Sawyer Thompson approached Hikari, "Dr. Hikari, my daughter, she just finished her college entrance examination this year. She is the pride of our family, her future is ahead of her, she can't be without her legs. Isn't there any other way?"

Hikari shook his head, "I'm very sorry, I understand your feelings as family members. Right now, Miss Thompson's condition can wait for another three days. After three days, I'll come again, and then you can decide whether to proceed with the surgery for Miss Thompson."

"Goodbye."

Having said that, Hikari turned around and left.

Watching Hikari's retreating figure, Mary held Sawyer in an embrace and cried loudly, "Sawyer! What are we going to do?"

Sawyer tried to keep his composure, "It's okay, it's okay. There must be a way."

Rachel Barton stood aside.

A slight smirk appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Compared to death, it seemed like Viola Thompson got off easy.

As proud as Viola is, how could she live without her legs?

If Hikari could amputate her legs, then he could certainly amputate Viola's hands.

A term suddenly popped into Rachel's mind.

Human Pig.

She was looking forward to seeing Viola turned into a Human Pig.

Under the current circumstances.

Unless the Thompson Family didn't want Viola to live.

Otherwise.

Viola's legs were likely to be lost.

Promptly.

The three days were up.

Hikari arrived at the hospital with his assistant.

This time, Hikari didn't speak, his assistant took out the documents, "Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Thompson, our Dr. Hikari is very busy. If you agree to the surgery, please sign here. We can arrange for Miss Thompson's surgery immediately."

Sawyer and Mary glanced at each other in silence.

The atmosphere became quiet.

The facial expressions of the members of the Thompson Clan were filled with hesitation.

Viola was still so young.

If she lost her legs, how could she go on living?

At this moment, Rachel came forward and said, "Uncle, Aunt, why don't you just sign it. If you agree to the surgery, at least Viola can survive, as long as she lives, there's hope."

Her eyes were slightly red, and her voice was hoarse, giving off the impression of a deep sisterly bond with Viola.

Just then, Hikari spoke, "Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Thompson, we don't have much time left for Miss Thompson. Please be sure to think it through."

After his words, Hikari glanced at his watch, "I am short on time, I will give you three minutes to consider."

Time passed, second by seond.

Soon, the three minutes was almost up.

Penny Kalafatis said, "Big brother, sister-in-law, why don't we prioritize her survival..."

Elena Williams nodded her head.

At this moment, life was the most important thing.

Mary covered her mouth and sobbed.

Sawyer's hand trembled as he picked up the pen and was about to sign.

"Wait."

At that moment, a cold and low voice filled the air.

Everyone turned to look, only to see a tall and straight figure walking towards them against the light, his face unclear, but emanating an overwhelming aura.

There was someone following him.

This person was not tall, only about one meter and fifty centimeters or so, very thin, with a beard, and appeared somewhat strange.

The cold voice sounded again.

"Uncle, you can't sign."

As he came closer.

Everyone recognized him, it was Terrence Lentz.

There was a sarcastic look in Rachel's eyes.

Can't sign?

Did Terrence really bring Nathaniel Besian here?

She was dreaming.

No matter what, Viola's legs could not be saved today.

Sawyer cast a brief glance upwards, "Terrence."

Terrence pointed at the short man next to him and introduced, "Uncle, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Nathaniel Besian."

His voice was not too loud, but it resonated powerfully.
