Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 206 Gwen Raven Wanted To Be Master’s Disciple

“Do you know that you are letting Abigail off the hook? You think there is not enough trouble caused, is it?”

Cassandra Parks retorted.

Albert Parks was a hot-tempered person. After being rebuked, he was also filled with anger. “I’m just stating the

facts. How did I let Abigail off the hook? Oh, don’t tell me she was wrong to pour tea for everyone out of goodwill?”

“She’s offering a Greek gift, so she is definitely up to no good.” Cassandra gritted her teeth and glared at Abigail

Barton viciously. She wished she could gouge out Abigail alive with her glare.

Abigail complained in an aggrieved manner, “Grandaunt Cassandra, I was really just pouring tea for everyone out

of kindness. You can’t wrong me like this.”

Upon seeing Abigail’s hypocritical demeanor, Cassandra became even more furious. “Drop your act. When there

are people with evil intentions in the family, the home will never be peaceful.”

Layla Ziegler said in defense, “Aunt, the matter isn’t clear yet. How can you pin the blame on Abigail? Although she

wasn’t very good in certain aspects, she definitely wouldn’t do something like harming Grandpa

Samuel.”

She knew that she had to stand up for Abigail.

Wasn’t it more suspicious if she didn’t speak up for Abigail in this situation? It was as if she knew. “Definitely

wouldn’t? What evidence do you have to guarantee that she definitely won’t?” Cassandra had looked down on Layla

all along. Now that Layla was defending Abigail with such certainty, Cassandra became even angrier.

When he saw more and more people looking in their direction, Julian Parks said, “Let’s talk about this later.

Grandpa’s health is more important.”

No matter who it was, Julian would never let him off!

Cassandra was a sensible person. She frowned and looked at Julian as she said, “Yes. His health is more important.”

She glared at Abigail viciously again.

Annalise removed the cups used for the cupping therapy from Samuel’s body.

Julian looked at Annalise.

Annalise said, “Send Grandpa home for a good rest.”

“Alright. I’ll send Grandpa back. I can’t accompany you today. John, please take care of Annie.” Julian carried his

grandfather up.

“I’ll go back with you!” Annalise said.

She still had to observe Grandpa’s condition round the clock. Later, she would gather some medicine that could

purge the poison.

Annalise then took out a plastic bag from her bag and asked Cassandra, “Grandaunt, did Grandpa drink from this

teacup?”

“Yes, that’s the one.” Cassandra glared at Abigail again with a furious expression.

Annalise put the teacup in the plastic bag. She did not reach out with her hand to pick up the teacup but used the

plastic bag to pick it up.

After that, she put the cup into her bag.

Abigail’s eyes narrowed when she saw this. What was this bitch Annalise trying to do?

Not far from the entrance, the Blake family members and the Jones family members were already closing in

around Master Quigley.

When she saw that she wasn’t the first to approach the master, Gwen Raven gritted her teeth resentfully and

quickly made her way toward Joseph Quigley.

She had to seize this opportunity to talk to the master.

Perhaps the master might like her talent and was willing to take her in as his disciple?

Jonathan Woods was his eldest disciple and he had received so many benefits. As Joseph Quigley’s eldest disciple,

he had been enjoying such benefits for the better half of his life.

After Old Mr. Graham and Old Mr. Hector bade Annalise farewell, they also went to meet Master Quigley.

Annalise and Julian left the venue of the medical conference with the rest of the family members.

In other words, Annalise left straightaway without even meeting Joseph Quigley face to face.

After Annalise left, Jonathan naturally went to meet his mentor.

The moment Joseph saw Jonathan, he scolded him, “Unfilial creature. You knew I was coming, but you come to look

for me immediately.”

Jonathan smiled. “I was held up by some matters.”

“What matter is so important? Is it more important than paying your respects to your mentor?” Joseph

chided him.

Jonathan smiled again. “Alright, alright. Sir, calm down. I’ll treat you to a big meal later.”

“That’s more like it.” Joseph was finally satisfied.

didn’t

Gwen listened to the conversation between the master and the disciple and kept guessing and imagining.

She surmised that Joseph Quigley definitely did not know Annalise Barton. Therefore, the titles of seniority used by

Annalise and Jonathan with each other were just on their end, and Joseph Quigley was not aware at

all.

It was blatantly clear at this moment. Jonathan didn’t even dare to mention Annalise.

Besides, if Annalise was really Joseph Quigley’s disciple, how could she not pay her respects to Joseph Quigley when

he came?

Even if she did not take the initiative to come out and meet him, surely Joseph Quigley would ask for her?

Haha!

She almost mistook Annalise Barton for Master Quigley’s disciple.

Gwen took a step forward and greeted Joseph politely. “Good day, Grandpa Quigley. I’m the Raven family’s

daughter, Gwen Raven. My grandfather used to work with you in the same hospital.”

She had thought for a long time on how to address him. Among the titles of Specialist Quigley, Scholar Quigley,

Medical Expert Quigley, and Elder Quigley, none of them were as affectionate as Grandpa Quigley.

“Oh? And who is your grandfather?” Old folks tended to be nostalgic. When Joseph heard that Gwen was the

granddaughter of an old friend, he looked at Gwen with interest.

“My grandfather is Gerard Raven.” Gwen was willing to bet that Joseph would definitely remember her grandfather.

“Ah, that old creature. His granddaughter is already so big?” Joseph was very happy. “Now, you’ve also inherited

your grandfather’s mantle and become a doctor, have you?”

“Yes. I’ve already graduated with a doctorate in medicine.” When Gwen saw that Joseph remembered her

grandfather, she was very happy and immediately took the opportunity to show off her ability.

Joseph sized up Gwen and said with approval, “Good, very good. Be a good doctor and treat illnesses and save

people’s lives. Don’t be like your grandfather who put the cart before the horse. Instead of being a good doctor, he

decided to go into business.”

Gwen felt awkward momentarily, but she still said respectfully, “Yes. I will definitely remember Old Mr. Quigley’s

teachings and be a good doctor. I will treat illnesses, save people’s lives, and bring benefits to the people.”

“Good, good!” Joseph liked people with ideals and ambitions the most. He nodded with approval.

“Grandpa Quigley, I’ve always admired you. I have always wanted to be your disciple if I have the chance to meet

you in my life. Now that I have finally met you today, I wonder if I can be accepted as your disciple?” Gwen asked

humbly.

Jonathan looked at Gwen with an ambiguous expression. He could not hide the mockery in his tone. “Ms. Raven, as

a representative of modern medicine, it’s not appropriate for you to become a disciple of a traditional medicine

practitioner, is it?”

Seeing that Joseph did not refuse her request, Gwen immediately said, “I’ve always felt that science has no borders,

and it is the same in the field of medicine. All scholastic fields should not reject each other. Whether it’s traditional

medicine or modern medicine, we should advocate for the strengths of all fields. We should extract the essence,

and discard the dross. We can learn modern medicine, but we must also retain the positive aspects of traditional

medicine.”

“Well said!” Joseph was impressed by Gwen’s words.

He had always taught his disciples this way too. Therefore, all his disciples trained hard in the fundamentals of

traditional medicine when they came under his mentorship. After they completed their learning, he would send

them overseas to study modern medicine.

His expectations of them were they must be diligent when learning modern medicine. They must work hard to

perform more surgeries besides learning the theory and philosophy. No matter what surgery it was, they had to

undertake as many as possible.

In addition, after completing their studies, the disciples must return to their birth country and always bear in mind

that they were citizens of Great Chanaea.

After Gwen received Joseph’s affirmation and praise, she was delighted and immediately struck while the iron was

hot. She said, “Grandpa Quigley, I want to become your disciple. Please take me under your wing. Please rest

assured that I will definitely work hard, remain humble and not be afraid of hardships.”
