Chapter 66 Susan stood aside with her arms crossed. She shook her head, speechless.
“Don‘t you guys know about Naomi’s other name? She‘s Wish. Can none of you tell right from wrong? You simply accuse others without proof. The victim turned out to be the real genius. How ridiculous!”
“Naomi is Wish?”
Wish meant hope. Her other name Wish meant hope. It was her late mother, Rachel, who had given her her nickname.
The crowd was in complete shock, but they trusted Susan‘s credibility. Besides, the exam committee on stage had successfully verified Naomi‘s identity and allowed her to take the entrance exam. Johnson stared at Naomi furiously. Suddenly, his phone buzzed. Johnson glanced at the message and immediately left the hall with a viscous, scheming smile. Meanwhile, on the stage, the team of examiners and Vice–Chancellor from the Royal Medical School showed a little more caution with their expressions. “Miss Naomi, we will be more strict when conducting our exam because of what has just happened.” “No problem!” Naomi, filled with confidence, smiled and stood in front of the audience. There was no need for her to worry about her thesis as she knew that her content was strong and factual. She had also prepared plenty of examples and explained them in layman‘s te All the students in the audience understood her speech and gave her a thunderous appla “Your thesis is the strongest I‘ve heard amongst all the high schoolers.... No, it‘s strongest even amongst the undergraduates. However...” Vice– Chancellor nodded with relief on his face, but he immediately changed the tone of his voice. “Our entrance exam isn‘t just about theories on paper. Now, please, diagnose Mister Craig and give us your opinion on his health.” “What? Diagnose the country‘s best doctor?” “Won‘t she make a fool of herself? Now here‘s a good show to watch!” The teachers and students on the ground were whispering in excitement. The examiners on stage were waiting to see how Naomi would perform. They had high expectations of her. Naomi‘s real capability would be proven with the practical exam. “Alright.”
Naomi showed no fear in her eyes. She nodded calmly and walked to Ansel Craig. “Mister Craig, please give me your hand.” Ansel stretched his hand cooperatively and looked at her with a kind smile.
“Child, you have to be careful. I‘m definitely not someone who would cover for someone else‘s mistake.”
“Okay!” Naomi completed the diagnosis for Ansel during the short conversation. She frowned after learning of his health condition. “What‘s wrong? Does she really know the answer?” “Hasn‘t she always been weak when it came to her studies? Now, I guess she can‘t pretend anymore.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
The crowd noticed her strange expression. Soon, their murmurs grew louder. Meanwhile, the faces of the group of examiners on stage grew solemn. “If you know a thing or two, it‘ll do.” Ansel thought Naomi was nervous and even gave her a few words of encouragement. “Then I shall be bold and straightforward!” Naomi looked up at Ansel with a sad look on her face. She felt pity for him. “Mister Craig... You have an incurable disease!” Everyone‘s faces changed upon hearing her answer. “That‘s impossible! Mister Craig is a great doctor himself. How could he allow himself to fall

“Naomi, can‘t you come up with a better lie? Your mistake is far worse than your sister‘s!” The crowd was furious. The Vice–Chancellor‘s face turned extremely gloomy too. Just as he was about to speak, Ansel waved his hand lightly. “She‘s right. I didn‘t plan to tell anyone of this. Unfortunately, this young lady is rather accurate with her diagnosis. She could easily tell by reading my pulse.”
“What? Naomi was right?!”
Chaos broke out. A few of the examiners stepped up and took a reading of Ansel‘s pulse to see if she had been accurate in her diagnosis. They concluded that she was right!
At once, the atmosphere grew solemn, and everyone was drowned with sadness.
They suddenly heard a loud and clear voice break the gloomy atmosphere. “Don‘t worry. I have a remedy for this!”
“What did you say? Can you treat him?” asked the Vice–Chancellor. His eyes were filled with doubt.
