Chapter 830
With that, he turned to leave.
Marlon rushed to stop him. “Wait, Mr. Parker! Ms. Sterling is just a young woman, don’t hold it against her…”
Anastasia knew Marlon was trying to plead on her behalf, but she didn’t appreciate it. “What does my age have to do with it? Are older doctors incapable of being quacks?”
“If I’m not mistaken, besides frequently coughing up blood, Mrs. Clark also faints from time to time and can’t stomach rich, heavy foods. She throws up every time she tries, correct?”
“Furthermore, there’s a symptom Mr. Parker completely overlooked, leading to his misdiagnosis: Mrs. Clark has started losing her hair in recent months, and it’s getting progressively worse, isn’t that right?”
At her last words, Mrs. Clark looked up, stunned.
“Now that you mention it,” she said, her voice filled with surprise and doubt, “I have been losing more hair these past few months. I’ve always shed a bit, so I wasn’t sure if it was normal, but it does seem to be much more than before…”
Mrs. Clark’s confirmation made both Marlon and Steven’s expressions shift.
While Marlon was grateful to Anastasia for providing the herbs, he hadn’t fully trusted her medical skills and had even felt a bit resentful when she’d confronted Steven. But hearing his wife’s words… was she actually right?!
This was something Mr. Parker hadn’t mentioned at all!
Steven’s face darkened. He had dismissed Anastasia as a young upstart seeking attention, never imagining she actually had some skill!
As he followed her line of reasoning, his thoughts grew more chaotic. It seemed he really had made a misdiagnosis.
But how could he admit that to this… girl? His reputation would be ruined! He’d become a laughingstock in their professional circle!
So, he sneered, “You learn one little thing and you think you can show off? You dare accuse me of misdiagnosis based on that? Whose student are you? Who taught you to be so-“
He was cut off mid-sentence.
“So what? &may not have formally accepted her as my student yet, but Lam her mentor Let’s hear what you were about to say!” content
Steven looked toward the door, shocked”
“MAustin Mr. Brownet

“She’s my student, too,” Aubrey added, not to be outdone by Bruno’s claim.
He glared at Steven. “You got a problem with that?”
Steven was dumbfounded.
He stared at Anastasia in disbelief. A student of Bruno and Aubrey?!
Marlon’s eyes widened in shock.
As expected of Mr. Harrison Lancaster’s wife, she was full of surprises!
Seeing them, Anastasia walked over. “Professor.”
Aubrey immediately asked, “Are you talking to him or to me?”
Anastasia paused. “…Both.”
The old man’s mood instantly brightened, and he shot Bruno a smug look.
Bruno just shook his head, refusing to engage, and asked Anastasia, “What happened just now?”
