Gwen could not believe her ears. She thought that she must have heard wrongly. She couldnât believe that she had heard that Annalise was Josephâs proudest disciple.little Joseph suddenly looked over and asked into the microphone, âGwen, you said that you want to take my disciple as your master. I knew your grandfather. Iâve already told Anna that you can study under her now.â Everyone looked over.
Some were surprised, some were envious, and some looked sarcastic. Gwen suddenly felt that Joseph was deliberately setting her up to embarrass her. It turned out that Annalise was really his disciple.
However, when she looked at Joseph, she saw his serious expression, looking as if he didnât know anything. At this moment, everything was magnified. Almost everyone in the venue looked over at her direction. She had become a target. If she accepted the deal, she would never be able to raise her head again.
Her eyes flashed. She gritted her teeth and said, âOld Mr. Quigley, I mean, I wanted to study under you.
However, itâs fine if you donât wanna take me as your disciple. By the way, I still have something to do.
Iâll be taking my leave.â Gwen ignored all kinds of strange gazes and hurriedly walked out of the venue.
Elder Quigley said into the microphone, âHey, Gwen, where are you going? Thereâs a group photo session between practitioners from both sides later. âSigh, child, why are you so muddle-headed at such a young age? Didnât you say so yourself, that as long as you be a part of the Quigley Enterprise, you would have no problems studying under my disciple? âOh, so you think Anna is too young, right?
Silly child, although Anna is young, her talent and medical skills are really good! She has been learning medicine from me since she was seven years old and has inherited all my teachings. Her medical skills have long surpassed mineâ¦â
It didnât matter if Gwen heard these words or not. Not only did he embarrass Gwen, but he also told everyone that Annaâs medical skills were amazing. Below the stage, there was already an uproar. âOh my god, Annalise Barton is actually Master Quigleyâs personal disciple. She studied medicine with the old man at the age of seven. No wonder she could give a jar of Energizing Pill at Samuelâs birthday banquet.ââYou really canât judge a book by its cover, I guess!â
âThatâs right, thatâs right. Back then, when I saw how smooth her handwriting was, I didnât believe that she hadnât been to school before. As expected, she had already obtained a masterâs degree in medicine, but some idiots were still spreading rumors that she hadnât gone to school for even a day.â
âThose rumors came from her cousin.â âOh my, donât mention her cousin. Itâs disgusting.â âExactly.â At this moment, Annalise and Julian were sitting together with others. Many people came over to get close to her. âMrs. Parks, Iâm president of Rosely Corporation. Pleased to meet your acquaintance.â
âMrs. Parks, Iâm the niece-in-law of Old Madam Zeller, from the Zeller family. Letâs have tea together when weâre free in the future!â Everyone handed their business cards to Annalise. âPfft!â Sybil did not like any of it. She spat and complained, âWhat the hell? Why didnât any of them come before? Now they know how to curry favor.â When Lianne learned that Annalise was actually Master Quigleyâs proudest disciple, more hope rose in her heart. Her brother could be saved.
Henry looked at Sybilâs unhappy face and pulled her. âCome on, donât care about them. Hurry up and help me split the money. My hands are full now.â Henry was really busy. Fortunately, the banking system of Chanaea was strong and there was no limit to mobile bank payment. Otherwise, there was no way to pay the funds. The total amount was too huge, those rich young people bet at least 1.5 million dollars into the competition. Everyone lined up to get their money. They were all extremely excited. When it was time for the group photo, Annalise stood up.
Julian also stood up and instructed Henry, âTransfer all the money that Annalise and I won to her account.â âAlright,â Henry replied readily. Sybilâs eyes flickered. She felt that Julian was really good to Annalisel Annalise and Jonathan walked up the stage together. Mina rushed over and looked at Annalise with burning eyes. âAnna!â âHello!â Although Annalise was not all that familiar with Mina, she had a good impression of her. Previously, she was the one who testified for her, proving that Gwen had acne. âAnna, letâs go on stage and take a photo together,â Mina said.
The way she looked at Annalise then was completely that of looking at an idol. Gwen had no intentions of studying under Annalise, but she had.Age was not important. What was important was that she admired Annalise more than Jonathan. Jonathan was just good at medicine. Annalise was not only good at medicine, but she was also especially smart. She had beaten Gwen all the way. She liked Annalise too much. After the group photo, the exchange officially ended. When they were taking photos, Mina was squeezed next to Annalise. Graham and Hector were speechless.
Graham whispered to Mina, âLittle miss, arenât you a representative of modern medicine?â Mina said in a low voice, âI want to be part of traditional medicine in the future.â Graham and Hector were speechless. Annalise looked at Minaâs lively appearance and smiled. For some reason, she really liked Minaâs personality. She guessed that her family must be very happy to have raised such an innocent and cute girl. After taking the photo, everyone got off the stage. Mina leaned against Annalise and said, âAnna, letâs go together.â
The two of them got off the stage together. When they were below the stage, Mina begged Annalise, âAnna, can I study under you? Donât worry, Iâll definitely study hard. In the future, when I learn traditional medicine, if I live in the country, Iâll treat illnesses and save people. If I live overseas, Iâll only treat Chanaea people, not foreigners.â Annalise laughed when he heard Minaâs words. âHaha!â âAnna, can you take me as your disciple?â Mina looked at Annalise pleadingly. âWith my current medical skills, itâs not suitable for me to take in disciples.â Annalise rejected tactfully and said, âAlso, I still have studies to complete.â
Mina knew that it was not good to force others, but she really wanted to be Annaliseâs disciple. She raised three fingers and said, âI promise not to disturb you when youâre busy. I also definitely wonât use your name to swindle others.â Jonathan knew Mina. She was the daughter of MK Group from Caspardion. It would be beneficial for Anna to have such a girl as his disciple, as it would benefit Annaâs businesses.
He said, âAnna, you should really take a disciple.â âJohn!â Annalise panicked. âAlright, I agree on your masterâs behalf. Now get on with it!â Jonathan said to Mina.. Mina was overjoyed and immediately went on with the ceremony. âThank you, master. Thank you, martial uncle, master, this is my apprenticeship gift.â Mina was in a hurry to remove the necklace from her neck. The necklace looked very ordinary at first glance. When the pendant was pulled out, Annalise saw a sparkling blue color.
