GoodNovelChapter 1227
Upon hearing the first part of the sentence, Sydney felt a flutter in her heart. The person behind FUND was said
to be the dream of every woman in the Martial World. Sydney hadn't met him, but she'd heard the legendary
stories and couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration mixed with longing. However, her expression shifted to one
of annoyance when she heard the rest of what Kenneth had to say. Another woman from the Mortal World? There
was already the bothersFlora, and now another one? How annoying. "It's probably just a fling," Sydney said
dismissively. "Someone like him wouldn't actually fall for a woman like that."
Suddenly, a coughing sound cfrom outside the door. Sydney quickly said, "I've got to go, we'll chat later,"
and hung up the phone. After hanging up, she quickly pretended to be deeply engrossed in her medical
textbook.
A few moments later, someone walked in. Sydney hastily set down the book, stood up, and greeted, "Corbyn, Mr.
Moore."
It was the elderly man Flora had rescued at the black market, along with his attendant. The elderly man was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorbyn, the head of the Medical Hall.
"Head Moore, you look pale! Are you alright?" Sydney asked, concerned by Corbyn's grim expression.
"It's nothing," Corbyn replied, shaking his head. "Just an old ailment acting up at the black market today, but it's
nothing serious. In fact, it ledto meet a young lady with remarkable medical skills."
Mentioning Flora, Corbyn's eyes brightened a bit. Amos, his attendant, walked over to pour him a glass of water.
After taking a sip, Corbyn continued, "Her skills are indeed exceptional. It's been ages since I've seen such a
promising talent in the Martial World."
Hearing this, Sydney's smile faltered. Corbyn had never praised her like that, but she kept her smile intact. "To
earn such praise from you, Head Moore, she must be something special. But in the Martial World, when it comes
to medical skills, if Tara is considered second, no one dares claim first. Who could possibly surpass her?"
"Tara is certainly talented," Corbyn agreed with a smile, thinking of his prized student. But the girl he met today
was quite impressive too.
"Head Moore, since Tara isn't around and you're not feeling well, how about I give you an acupuncture
massage?" Sydney offered, smiling. "No need," Corbyn replied coolly, sensing her attempt to flatter him. "You'd
be better off spending that tstudying your medical texts." Sydney let out an awkward chuckle.
In the Martial World, everyone was an early riser, up by seven to practice their morning exercises. Flora, on the
other hand, slept in until ten before finally getting up and heading outside.
Jacob and Carly had already
finished their exercises. Seeing Flora
emerge, Jacob exclaimed, "Flora, you're finally awake! Seriously, you must hold the record for thedongest
sleeper I've ever seen!"
Carly playfully hit him with a pink brick, "Girls need their beauty sleep. What's wrong with sleeping a bit more?"
"And you have the nerve to talk
about others? Sort yourself out first," a commanding voice chimed in. "After all these years of training, you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcouldn't even protect your cousin when danger struck. Someone else had to step in to save her.
Gerald and the Clan Leader approached with a steady stride. Gerald, with his stern, square face, looked as cold
as ever, while Joey sported a gentle smile, exuding a wise, sage-like air.
At the sight of Gerald, Jacob quieted down immediately, shrinking back, and Carly followed suit. They weren't
afraid of Joey, but Gerald was another story!
"Flora, did you sleep well last night? If anything's amiss, just let us know," Joey asked with a smile.
Flora nodded, "Uncle Gerald, | slept wonderfully."
"Glad to hear it. Treat this place like your hand don't be shy," Joey said warmly, then turned to Jacob and
Carly with a stern look. "Why are you two still here? Didn't | tell you to head to the Medical Hall for
medicine? You're about to take part in the nobility's children assessment; you need to be prepared!"
Flora's interest was piqued, "The nobility's children assessment?"
