"My father's symptoms aren't very severe, but his condition is a little complex, with only a handful of doctors who are experienced in this area. It's a coincidence that Yolanda knows how to treat him."
Miranda looked pointedly at Yolanda and continued, "That's why I'm here with my men. We're here for her. We'll have her come to the Cavanaugh villa to treat my father."
Anna and Jean looked a little perplexed after hearing what Miranda had said.
Her needing Yolanda to treat Lennox meant that they couldn't detain Yolanda now.
The Cavanaughs had power and influence. Even if they were not based in Creybia, they still held important positions in the aristocratic circle in Creybia.
If they were to delay Lennox's treatment because of their personal vengeance, it was a responsibility they couldn't afford to bear.
Miranda took in Anna's and the rest's reactions and feigned exasperation, "However, Yolanda is awfully arrogant as a nobody. I've sent people over to invite her several times, but they've all been chased out. Even my assistant was severely injured by her.
"That's why, for the sake of my father's health, I had no choice but to put aside a multimillion-dollar contract for Cavanaugh Group so I could personally invite her."
Miranda's snide remark had completely dismissed Anna and Jean's worries.
Miranda was clearly unhappy with Yolanda, so she would never become Yolanda's support.
As long as the Cavanaughs didn't side with Yolanda, things would be easier.
They could allow Yolanda to go back with Miranda to treat Lennox, then take her away after she was done.
Yolanda watched Miranda coldly as an icy smile appeared on her face.
Miranda still refused to lower her noble head to beg her. She was even thinking of using Anna and the rest to threaten her to relent.
"Go with me to Cerulean Abode right now, Yolanda." An aloof smile hung on Miranda's lips as she ordered Yolanda like she was doing her a favor.
She was so certain that since she held the key to Yolanda's survival, Yolanda would surely surrender to her mercy. She might be recklessly brazen now that she knew that she had support.
"My patience is wearing thin. Don't make me angry."
"Do you want me to treat your father?" Yolanda asked with a faint smile. "Let's see if you're sincere with your request."
"What do you mean by this?" Miranda's temper flared.
"If you want me to treat your father at your house, go ahead and kneel at the clinic door until I say otherwise," Yolanda replied.
"What?" Anna and the rest were dumbfounded. No one had expected Yolanda to reject Miranda's orders.
"It's your honor to be able to treat Uncle Lennox, Yolanda. How dare you be so arrogant about it? You're so stubborn and shameless!"
