Chapter 608: Chapter 608
Before Elder Hayes could recover, the students behind him were already starting to praise.
"Giselle Keating truly is impressive, that confidence comes from her own abilities."
"Yeah, Elder Hayes is definitely going to wake up."
"That’s genius for a pharmacist, merely using just one injection to save someone, really amazing."
"Giselle Keating is also Elder Sawyer’s disciple, how great would it be if we could study under her."
"Eleanor Sterling must be dumbfounded, seeing Giselle Keating being so capable, might she feel ashamed?"
"Look at her, she’s speechless, awkwardly smiling there. So embarrassing."
Eleanor Sterling heard these words, and the corner of her eye twitched suddenly.
Was she smiling awkwardly?
Were these people blind? It was obvious she was smiling out of schadenfreude!
As if responding to Giselle Keating, the life-monitoring equipment suddenly emitted a beeping alarm.
Elder Hayes’ vital signs had plummeted!
Everyone was shocked, not knowing what was happening, the Hayes Family were also panicking.
"Miss Keating, what’s happening to the elder?"
"Quick, save the elder."
Giselle Keating’s smug smile was still on her face, but the sudden incident had scared her stiff.
"How... how could this be?"
Giselle Keating had only brought the medication; she simply didn’t know how to treat illnesses or handle such unexpected situations.
She had just become Rhys Lynch’s apprentice and hadn’t yet started learning Chinese medicine.
Giselle Keating was anxious inside, but could only stand there helplessly as waves of fear engulfed her.
Scott Hayes was frantically pacing, shouting, "The elder’s heart rate is below the normal threshold, what do we do? He’s not going to die, is he?"
He approached Brian Zane and Elder Sawyer, his voice trembling, "Director Zane, Elder Sawyer, I beg you both to intervene and save the elder."
Brian Zane held his hand behind his back, spoke solemnly, "I’ll have my apprentice do it; her level is practically indistinguishable from mine."
Elder Sawyer snorted coldly in his heart, his gaze extremely disdainful.
Though he and Brian Zane were at odds, Zion Sheffield’s medical skills weren’t far off his?
This talk might fool others, but he didn’t believe it. Brian Zane wasn’t afraid of bragging beyond credibility!
Elder Sawyer wasn’t one to be outdone either, saying, "I’ll have my apprentice do it too; her medical skills are quickly surpassing mine and are better than Brian Zane’s apprentice!"
Standing aside, Eleanor Sterling felt a headache splitting when she heard the two elders talking.
Why were they competing again?
Brian Zane discontentedly looked at Elder Sawyer and huffed, "Old geezer, what do you mean by that? My apprentice is way better than yours!"
"You’re full of nonsense! My apprentice is the best!"
"Oh, stop bragging, my apprentice is the best in the world!"
"You’re the one bragging; soon you’ll witness my apprentice’s prowess, and then we’ll see who is number one!"
The two originally steady individuals surprisingly began arguing in front of many people in the ward, and their dialogue grew more and more childish.
"Can you stop arguing?" Eleanor Sterling could only step forward to mediate.
Elder Sawyer angrily said, "Eleanor, tell me, is his apprentice better, or is my apprentice better?"
Brian Zane was equally relentless, immediately adding, "Elle, tell us, isn’t my apprentice better than this old man’s apprentice?"
Eleanor Sterling’s face turned awkward as she stammered, "Uh... Both are very good."
Elder Sawyer was so mad his face darkened, dismissively said, "That Zion Sheffield kid doesn’t measure up to my apprentice at all!"
Brian Zane snorted, his demeanor contemptuous, "Rhys Lynch isn’t better than Sally either!"
The two froze at the same time, simultaneously saying, "Who said my apprentice was Zion Sheffield (Rhys Lynch)?"
Brian Zane was astonished, "Then who are you talking about?" Chapters first released on NoveI[F]ire.net
Elder Sawyer squinted his eyes, "I’m referring to my most brilliant apprentice, Eon!"
Brian Zane: "I’m talking about my apprentice Sally!"
With that, the two fell silent again.
They both knew the other had such an impressive apprentice, but neither had ever met them.
Eleanor Sterling sighed; she knew she couldn’t hide the truth any longer and helplessly said, "Master, teacher, actually Eon and Sally are both me."
