Mrs. Hunt had just finished speaking when Simon smiled and asked, âHow did you know?â
Mrs. Hunt: âKnow what?â
She looked at Simon in surprise and remembered what he had just said. Then, she was stunned. It couldnât have been what he had saidâ¦.
Ian and Joel were also stunned as they frowned looking at Simon.
Just then, the sound of a car pulling up was heard from the doorway. Then, Nora and Justin entered the living room. The two had just entered when they were stunned to see the people in the room.
Noraâs gaze swept past Mrs. Hunt and the Andersons. She spoke in surprise, âSimon, Melissa, what are you two doing here?â
Simon immediately greeted her with a smile. âWeâve come to see you. What other surprises do you have that we donât know about? Youâre Doctor Zabeâs latest disciple!â
No sooner had he said this than Ian was about to get up from the wheelchair, but his legs softened and he sat back down.
Joel was slightly surprised.
The most surprised person was Mrs. Hunt. She stood up suddenly and took the butlerâs hand. Then she looked at Nora and Simon in surprise. âWhat⦠what did you say, she⦠sheâs Doctor Zabeâs latest disciple?â
âYes!â
Simon smiled. âWhen Sheril called us to tell us, I couldnât believe it!â
At this point, his eyes turned red. âYvetteâs medical skills really do have a successor! Nora, you must continue to learn from Doctor Zabe and try to surpass him!â
Melissa immediately nudged him and smiled, âWhat are you talking about? The girl will definitely be more outstanding!â
Simon nodded instantly. He pulled out a tissue and wiped away his tears. Then, he looked at Nora. âYou have truly brought glory to the Andersons! As expected of Yvetteâs daughter.â
Melissa also said, âYes, you excel not only in alternative medicine but also in modern medicine? You really surprise us! What else are you good at?â

No sooner had she said this than Cherryâs voice was heard. âMommy, donât you know how to hack too?â.
Simon smiled, âOh, you know how to program?â
Nora: ââ¦A little bit.â
âTsk!â
A guffaw was heard. Nora turned and saw Justin stifling laughter and saying, âYeah, just a little bit.â
Nora glared at him and motioned for him not to say anything. Simon smiled, âItâs okay. If you like it, you can treat it as a hobby. You donât have to be too good at it. Your two skills in medicine are already the best.â
âYes, there are specialists in every field!â Melissa agreed. The two looked at Nora with almost glowing eyes.
As the two chatted, Ian looked back at Mrs. Hunt. Seeing her shocked expression, he said, âMrs. Hunt, why are you getting so agitated over such a small matter? Nora is nothing more than average in alternative medicine. She just created the Zabe Corporationâs Soothing Pill and just happened to save her sister-in-lawâs life. Sheâs just her familyâs benefactor. Donât be so agitated. Calm down.â
Mrs. Hunt felt as if she had been slapped and was speechless.
Joelâs lips twitched.
Uncle Ian, who was the one who stood up in shock, slumped back into the seat. He spoke as if he were very calmâ¦..
However, he could not poke at Ianâs sore. He smiled and said, âUncle Ian and Aunt Anderson were outstanding figures back then. How could the daughter they both gave birth to be less capable? Noraâs intelligence and genes are definitely stronger than theirs. Now, no one will dare slander Nora anymore, will they? I want to see who in New York dares to belittle her.â
Mrs. Huntâs face grew even redder.
Simon lifted his chin and said proudly, âBack then, Yvetteâs suitors made all of New York tremble. Almost every young genius liked her. Now that Nora is so outstanding, who would dare to despise her? Nora is the second Yvette.â
Mrs. Hunt knew what they were implying.
Back then, people who wanted to marry Yvette could stand in line for days! They were indirectly praising Nora!
When Mrs. Hunt thought about what she had just said, she was instantly enraged. She jabbed the cane in her hand into the floor and said angrily, âMiss Smith canât compare to Yvette back then, can she? After all, Yvette didnât have two children! No matter how good Miss Smith is, some people will still be calculating about it! I think sheâs better off with the childrenâs biological father.â
Ian frowned.
Justinâs face darkened. âGrandma!â
Mrs. Hunt smiled instantly. âOkay, donât get upset. Iâm done talking. I just heard that the Smiths were looking for a son-in-law a few days ago. But I havenât seen many people come. The only one who has come seems to be that Blaineâ¦see, rich families still worry about thisâ¦â
The Smiths were silent.
Mrs. Huntâs words were very true. Indeed, there were no prominent people coming to seek Noraâs hand in marriage. After all, many wealthy families would stay away at the sight of a woman with a burden.
Unexpectedly, the butler rushed in next. He looked a bit anxious. âSir, something bad has happened! A group of people have gathered outside! They say they want to marry Miss Nora!â
