Chapter 53 Give it A Shot
“You are saying that Ruby is not only good at surgery, she can also make her own medicine, and the medicine she made is very effective for traumatic injuries?”
Levi picked up the phone call from Jared and felt his temples throb as he listened to him whimpering and screaming on the other end.
But he came to be a little interested in what Jared said.
Ruby is like a treasure to be explored, the more he digs, the more he discovers that she has hidden countless treasures, just one of which is enough to cause a shock.
“Yes! You saw her brother’s injury, right? That face is so swelling that it could not recover in 10 days or half a month. I’ve just been away for less than an hour, and when I go back to see him again, his face is already mostly healed. I’ve sent you photos, so take a look for yourself later. You must find a way to get your hands on this kind of medicine. Levi, it’s time to sacrifice your beauty.”
Jared was still very emotional and could not wait to run to Ruby and ask for the recipe from her mouth right now.
Levi was thoughtful, ignored Jared and hung up the phone straight away.
They often suffer casualties on missions in District 7, and many times the danger is even higher on missions in deep forests or tropical jungles, where a common wound can kill someone with an infection.
If what Jared had just said was true, this medicine in Ruby’s hand was not only effective for soft tissue contusions, it was also very obvious for external injuries.
So his fiancée is hiding a lot.
Ruby did not yet know that she has been targeted by Levi. After coming out of the hospital, she once again went to Vincent’s private restaurant.
When Vincent looked at her with a gloomy face and hostile eyes, he knew at once that she must be angry about Kevin.
“What can I do for you?” Once Ruby had sat down, Vincent personally poured her tea, smiling carelessly.
“I will give you a Bone Tempering Pill, help me check out the Powell family in the capital.”
Ruby picked up her tea and took a sip, raising her eyebrows at Vincent.
All the tea here in Vincent seems to be good and makes her want to rob it a bit.
“The Powell family? What happened to your brother has something to do with the Powell family?” Vincent glanced at Ruby with some surprise.
Seeing this reaction from him, Ruby knew that he should be aware of the Powell family.
“You know it?”
“The capital has a very distinct class division, which can be roughly divided into five tiers. The top tier is very mysterious and basically does not have too many collusions with the outside world, and is truly the top of the pyramid. The second tier is the four major families, namely the Finn family, the Watson family, the Pearson family and the Carter family. As for the third tier, there are a lot of people, this Powell family is barely enough to reach the third tier.”
Knowing that Ruby was not particularly knowledgeable about the situation in the country, Vincent patiently gave her an overview of the distribution of power in the capital.
Ruby glanced at Vincent thoughtfully.
Vincent’s face was at ease as he met her gaze, “Our family is considered a branch of the Watson family and has little to do with the main family, so while we can still be powerful in other places, we have to shrink when we are in the capital.”
Vincent spoke casually, as if he didn’t care.
Ruby looked at him for a moment before withdrawing her gaze and did not ask more.
“The Powell family is powerful?” Her focus returned to the Powell family.
“It’s not bad, at least the first family in Sea City can’t even be a match to a tenth of the Powell family. Families like them are all inherited for more than a hundred years, with considerable family wealth, and their power is so intertwined that they have alliances with many families, so it’s quite troublesome.”
The last sentence is a reminder to Ruby not to think of offending the Powell family.
Ruby smiled indifferently and didn’t ask any more questions.
The main family of the Powell family is not to be messed with, does not mean that the side branches are also the same. Ruby has already got all the information of the person who hurt Kevin, she does not need to do it herself at all, as long as the evidence in her hand is handed over to certain people, someone will naturally help her clean up those people.
“Your chef’s cooking skills are good.” Ruby collected the coldness under her eyes and returned to her usual harmless appearance.
At this, Vincent hurriedly ordered the food to be served.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Ruby ate and drank till she was full, patted her bottom and left. Vincent chased her behind asking when the promised Bone Tempering Pill would actually be available.
Ruby came out of the private restaurant and originally intended to go straight back to Shangcheng International.
However, as she was just leaving the restaurant, Spencer’s phone call came through.
She squinted at the number and was silent for a long time before answering the phone, her tone light and sweet, “Dad, you want to see me?”
As soon as Spencer heard this tone of voice from her, he felt his head spin and pressed his temples before asking her in a suppressed voice, “Your stepmother’s hand is going to be amputated and she said you did it.”
“Dad, how can that be? I’m a weak woman. Is she trying to smear me by accidentally injuring herself? Dad, you have to believe me, how could I possibly do such a thing? If this kind of thing gets out, and people outside know that the future wife of Levi actually caused her own stepmother to have her arm amputated, what will they think of me? And what would they think of the Harold family?”
Ruby looked shocked and tried desperately to explain.
It was just the smile that sat on the corner of her mouth that was real.
Unfortunately, Spencer could not see the expression on her face at that moment.
A cold sweat broke out as he listened to Ruby’s words, and he immediately reacted.
Ruby is not a simple person now, no longer an outcast daughter of the Harold family, she is now the fiancées of young master of the Finn family, and this status alone is enough to shock many people.
“Ruby, don’t be anxious, I don’t mean to blame you. Are you outside now? Do you have enough money to spend?” Spencer raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead before he smiled and spoke with a few ingratiating touches within his tone.
The smile at the corners of Ruby’s mouth went bigger, and she looked as if she had been greatly aggrieved: “Dad, does Susan not like me? Why is she wronging me?”
“How could that be? How could she not like you? She likes you a lot.” Spencer began to sweat again.
“Then why did she accuse me wrongly? Dad, which hospital are you in? I’ve come to see Susan, if she really doesn’t like me, then I’ll watch my behavior when I marry into the Finn family.” Ruby still had that moody look, as if she was really hurt.
Spencer gave a glance at Susan, who was sitting on the hospital bed with a sad expression, and told Ruby the location of the hospital before hanging up the phone.
Once Susan saw that he hung up the phone, she shouted in a shrill voice, “Spencer! That Ruby is a monster! She really is a monster! She just pinched my shoulder and the doctor said that my nerves were necrotic and that I had to have my arm amputated. You have to believe me, you have to believe me!”
Spencer looked at her with this crazy look and felt some revulsion and disgust.
He pulled his face long and looked at Susan with a disappointed look on his face, “Enough, if she was capable of this, would you still have a life to tell me off? Her status is not what it used to be, there’s no need to keep targeting her. This time you’ve gone too far.”
Susan looked at Spencer in disbelief, her face pale, her mouth open, but she could not say anything.
