“Wright, what’s the plan then? Spit it

it out,” Ashley urged, her voice a mist of weakness and excitement.

Jett hesitated briefly. “I’ve been fortunate enough to be involved in a project concerning an artificial seed palace. By the way, Miss Jackson, your cousin Gabriel is invested in it, too. It seems like Mr. Jackson’s girlfriend is leading the project. But it’s still in the early stages of planning. I thought you should know, considering the family connection.”

The artificial seed palace project under Gina’s name?

At the mention of Gina, Ashley’s heart sank. “This project’s just getting off the ground. But I want a child now. How long do I have to wait? And what if you never succeed in developing it? Right now, this new project feels like a mere fantasy to me.”

Jett nodded, understanding her frustration, “Alright, Miss Jackson, let’s pretend I never brought it up. But I do have another suggestion.”

“If you could find Dr. Genevieve, maybe there’s a way,” Jett hinted cautiously. He knew Gina was Dr. Genevieve, but revealing that wasn’t his call. Gina” true identity was not something he could casually disclose.

The mention of Dr. Genevieve sparked hope in Ashley’s heart. Yes, seeking her out might hold the key. But Dr. Genevieve’s whereabouts were unknown, adding to the uncertainty.

Yet, even a glimmer of hope was better than none. Ashley found solace in that.

Harry reassured Ashley, “Ashley, don’t worry, I will find Dr. Genevieve for you.”

Ashley nodded, showing her faith in Harry.

Since Jett, the renowned fertility specialist, couldn’t find a solution for Ashley’s issue, Harry decided to leave with Ashley right away.

Back at their residence, Harry immediately dispatched people to search in all directions for Dr. Genevieve’s whereabouts.

Additionally, he posted a hefty reward on the anonymous website, offering a s t g g e n g sum of 100 million dollars to find and enlist Dr. Genevieve for Ashley’s treatment

Harry anticipated that his offer might take a while to elicit a response.

To his astonishment, within just half an hour, an account named “Genevieve” replied, “I can take the job.”

instant, the comments section beneath the reward exploded with activity as everyone gathered to witness this response from Dr. Genevieve’s

In an

account

Despite the prompt reply, Harry remained cautious. Could an account named Genevieve truly belong to Dr. Genevieve?

As he scrolled through the comments below, he found an explanation. “Dr. Genevieve does have a presence on the anonymous website, albeit hidden. It’s rare for anyone other than Dr. Genevieve herself to use the account. The fact that she’s active on her account today is a rarity indeed.”

Reading the clarifications in the comments, Harry felt some of his doubts dissipate. He responded to the account under the name Genevieve, “Having the healer aid my daughter would be ideal, but if you’re pretending well, you’ll regret deceiving me.”

Harry’s reply to the supposed Dr. Genevieve sparked immediate backlash,

*Are you serious? The explanation in the first comment was crystal clear. This is Dr. Genevieve’s account. And who would dare to toy with Dr. Genevieve’s name on the anonymous website?”

“How dare you threaten Dr. Genevieve? If she’s willing to take on your case, it’s a blessing. Keep it up, and you’ll regret it. Apologize to Dr. Genevieve, or she might refuse to help your daughter. Then, you’ll be in real trouble.”

Harry refrained from specifying that he spught Dr. Genevieve’s aid for Ashley’s fertility issues; he mentioned “treatment.”

As Harry read the responses, anger surged within him. It seemed the respondent was cursing Ashley.

Yet, he couldn’t continue the argument in this virtual realm. Anxiety crept in as he pondered the repercussions if Dr. Genevieve took offense and turned down Ashley’s treatment.

After much deliberation, Harry replied to Genevieve, “Dr., my apologies for my earlier outburst. Please forgive my words.”

After sending the message, Harry was filled with unease. When had he ever stooped so low?

But all of this was for Ashley’s sake. There was no other option.

Dr. Genevieve didn’t respond to his attitude but replied, “I’m currently in Shyran.”

“We’ll provide you with the specific address once we anive in Shyran.”

Harry was stunned. Dr. Genevieve was in Shyran. Then why had they come to Mosnioca?

*Wright, I’ll book the earliest flight for tomorrow.”

Aher responding, Harry immediately started preparing for their return journey.

The next day, Harry and Ashley boarded the plane heading back home.

During the flight, Ashley’s emotions were a mix of hope and fear. “Harry, do you think Dr. Genevieve can heal me?”

Dr. Genevieve was her only hope. If Dr. Genevieve also admitted defeat in treating her, she’d genuinely lose all hope.

And to make matters worse, Mrs. Taylor, who had attacked her with a stone, had escaped and still hadn’t been caught.

The thought of this filled Ashley with intense anger

Harry naturally sought to foster hope in Ashley. “Ashley, rest assured. Dr. Genevieve is renowned as a healer with extraordinary abilities. Perhaps she holds the key to our prayers? If everyone claims she’s a miracle worker, let’s lean into that belief.”

After all, if a miracle worker couldn’t deliver, could they indeed be called one?

Harry thought, ‘If Dr. Genevieve dared to admit defeat in treating Ashley, I vowed to ensure her reputation suffered greatly. However, I had another concern. We must not let Gabriel know about Dr. Genevieve’s whereabouts… Gabriel probably still believed that, apart from Neil, nobody knew about his impending o r a n failure before he turned thirty, right? Harry smirked. In my younger days, Emily had shared this secret with me. I also knew Gabriel had been on a relentless hunt for Dr. Genevieve. I couldn’t risk Gabriel tracking her down’

“Harry? Harry?” Ashley’s voice broke Harry’s thoughts, pulling him back to the present.

Harry returned to reality and whispered to Ashley, “Ashley, we must keep our meeting with Dr. Genevieve a secret from everyone.”
