Lilian said with a smile, “Don’t worry. It’s not untreatable. Since it’s coming from me, you know I don’t joke around.”
She patted the back of Camryn’s hand. “Take it easy. The treatment will be no more than three months. If you can’t see clearly after three months, I’ll get my mentor to treat you, but my mentor can’t beat me when it comes to getting an antidote for poisons.
Lilian had a vast knowledge of poisonous plants from growing them, far surpassing that of her mentor.
That was how she earned her reputation in the medical and poison field.
Heck, she would be called a miracle healer in ancient times.
Everybody was overjoyed by the news.
They knew there was hope for Camryn to see again with Dr. Carden working on her case.
“Thank you, Dr. Carden.”
Feeling relieved, Camryn took Lilian’s hands and thanked her profusely.
Lilian uttered with a grin, “Don’t mention it. You should thank your Aunt Evelyn, her husband, and your fiancé. You are where you are today because of their perseverance and determination.”
“Aunt Evelyn is like a mother to me. I’d have lost my life if she didn’t visit in time.”
The tragedy and the suffering in the darkness she had endured for the past decade drew tears in Camryn’s eyes.
She owed her life to Evelyn.
Camryn would not have been able to survive to this day if it were not for Evelyn.
Her mother, Paige, probably knew she was investigating her father’s death, so Paige tried to silence her by poisoning her, hoping the poisoning would look like a natural death. Camryn had lost her father and both her grandparents. Her two older aunts were on her stepfather’s side.
She was invisible in the Newman family.
Camryn’s family members, aside from Evelyn, would not weep for her death if the poison took her; she was a nobody in her family.
“Aunt Evelyn, it must have been tough for you all these years.”
Evelyn was already in tears. News that her niece could see again first thrilled her, but she broke down after hearing what Dr. Carden said.
She had been seeking medical help everywhere for years, often ignoring her own family. Evelyn was lucky her husband and children stood firmly by her side and never once complained about it to her.
Her husband said Camryn lost her father at a young age, and she was better off without a mother since Paige beat, yelled, and tortured Camryn despite the blood ties. Evelyn and her family were not in the position to stick up for and intervene in Camryn’s family affairs.
All they could do was provide Camryn with more love.
“That’s nothing. Everything I have done is worth it so long as you can see again. I can only face your father… when you get better.”
Camryn was someone her brother, Abel, was most worried about when he died.
His daughter was only two years old at the time and did not know anything better.
