Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
The elderly man on the hospital bed struggled to breathe once again. Without hesitation, Mirabella inserted a few more needles, and his breathing was steady graudally. Then he stopped twitching SO
easily.
People around were left in complete awe, astonished by Mirabella’s skill.
“You’re Mirabella, my own granddaughter You’ve returned after eighteen years.” Bernard examined the young girl before him. Her eyes were calm and serene, and her features bore an uncanny resemblance to Louisa.
She was unmistakably a Collins.
“Yes!”
Upon hearing Mirabella’s confirmation, Bernard took a few heavy breaths, seemingly shocked. However, thanks to Mirabella’s medical intervention, he didn’t pass out.
He reached out with difficulty, holding Mirabella’s hand.
“My child, you’ve suffered.” Bernard’s voice was weak, but his grip on Mirabella’s hand was strong. He was reluctant to let go. “We adults were so careless. We didn’t pay close attention, and you were left to grow up in another family. You’ve suffered for eighteen years.”
It’s fine, it’s all in the past now.”
Mirabella’s magnanimous attitude made Bernard teary-eyed, “It’s good that you’re back. We’ll make up for all the years you’ve missed. Who would have thought that fate would play such a cruel joke on the Collins family.”Mirabella thought to herself, it wasn’t fate’s doing, but the massive fire from years ago, which caused three families to swap their children.
But the cause of the fire remained a mystery, despite years of investigation.
Who was behind all this?
She realized that she needed to speed up the investigation.
“Serena, where is Serena?”
“Grandpa, I’m here!” Serena rushed forward.
Bernard extended his hand again, clutching Serena’s hand with difficulty. “My Serena.”
He never imagined that the granddaughter he had doted on for eighteen years was not his own!!
Looking at the beautiful, sensible, and obedient girl before him, Bernard felt a heartache. How could this happen?
How could it be!
Every single member of the Collins family had cherished this child for eighteen years!
And now, they were telling him that she wasn’t his real granddaughter.
Bernard’s heart ached with sorrow, sadness, and pain.
“Mom and Dad and my sister Bella have been generous enough to let me stay in this family. Rest assured, I am still your granddaughter. I will respect and take care of you as I always have.”
Tears streamed down Bernard’s face, “Good, that’s good. You stay here, so I can see you every day.”Serena, knowing that her grandfather still cared for her, softened her gaze, “From now on, you can see not only me every day but also Bella. We, as sisters, will get along well and always accompany you and Grandma.
“Good, good child.” Bernard wiped away his tears, surprised to see the children were more understanding than he had anticipated.
Cornelia, who was standing by, also wiped away her tears, lamenting the cruel tricks fate played.
“Grandpa, you’re just recovering from a serious illness, so you shouldn’t get too emotional.” Mirabella brought a pillow, so he would have something to lean on when sitting.
Bernard’s gaze once again landed on Mirabella, “I heard from your grandma, you saved us.”
“Not just me, the other medical staff also contributed. They took care of you round the clock. That’s how this miracle happened.”
Bernard saw that she wasn’t a child who would hoard all the credit, and his fondness for her grew.
Clark, standing aside, looked at Louisa, seemingly asking what was going on. Why did they say that Bella saved Grandma and Grandpa?
“Bella is Dr. Bell. She provided the treatment plan for your grandparents, and found the cure.”
Dr. Bell, perhaps unknown to the average person, but to the medical world, the name Dr. Bell was a resounding one. It was hard not to know her.
Rumor had it that Dr. Bell was an old man, but it turned out to be his blooming and beautiful younger sister.
Those who had spent a fortune to find Dr. Bell might die without knowing that they got both the gender and age wrong.
The conditions of his grandparents were examined by Clark before, and they were quite challenging.
Not only did they have fractures all over their bodies, but they also had multiple complications.
It was not as simple as taking some pills.
Things that a whole ICU team couldn’t handle at the time, she managed to fix in no time.
Not only was her hacking skills superior to his, but her medical skills were also above his.
Clark felt his dignity as an older brother shattered once again.
“Take some medicine first, Mirabella ordered someone to bring the brewed medicine and fed it to her grandpa first.
Bernard’s brow furrowed as he cried, “So bitter.”
Bernard found his granddaughter was more like an aloofness doctor, which was a bit intimidating. He had no choice but to obediently comply.
“Bella, can you change this medicine to something sweeter?”Bernard pleaded.
“This is already the sweetest.”
She hadn’t even prescribed the bitterer treatment yet, fearing that the old folks might drop dead on the spot.
“Grandma, you too?” Serena brought a bowl of medicine to Cornelia.
Cornelia didn’t want to drink it, but seeing so many people looking at her, she had no choice but to down the medicine.
“Let me tell you, although this medicine is bitter, it is beneficial to your recovery. This bowl costs around ten thousand dollars, so don’t waste it.”
Kenneth thought it necessary to inform them of the value of the medicine. Otherwise, they might secretly dump it.
“A bowl costs ten thousand? That’s so expensive!” Cornelia was astounded.
“There are many rare herbs in it that Bella went through great lengths to get. You must cherish them.
Many people are begging Bella, this miracle doctor, to save them, but Bella doesn’t even have the time to respond.”
Cornelia knew the medicine was not easy to come by, and that she and her husband owed their recovery to Bella, so she patted her chest in assurance.
“Don’t worry, from now on, we will drink every bowl of medicine clean, leaving no residue.”
Upon hearing this, Mirabella couldn’t help but smile, “When your condition improves, we can change to other medicines.”These medicines were indeed the most effective ones.
At least, there were no other alternatives in the market.
“We will listen to whatever Bella says,’ Cornelia promised, smiling.
“Grandma, Grandpa, I’m really happy to see you awake.” Clark finally spoke up from the side.
“You little devil, it’s good to finally see you around. When we were at home, we hardly saw you. You were always busy.” Cornelia couldn’t help but sigh upon seeing him, “You’ve grown up, and become a handsome young man in just a few months.”
“Now that Bella is back, as her big brother, you should spend more time with her and take her out more often, got it?” Bernard advised.
Clark grinned from ear to ear. “Don’t worry, as a big brother, I will definitely take good care of my little sister! Wherever she wants to go, I will accompany her! You two should focus on getting better and see if we can plan a family trip for the holidays.”
“That’s a fabulous idea. Your grandmother and I love to travel and explore new sceneries.”
Bernard and Cornelia loved to stay active, enjoyed hiking, and were passionate about traveling, but they wondered if they could still walk long distances due to their age.
Mirabella noticed him fixated on his legs. She was lost in thought, and couldn’t help but chuckle, “Don’t worry, Grandpa. In a while, you and Grandma will be able to walk again.”
“Really?” Bernard’s eyes lit up instantly.
Mirabella nodded, “I promise.”
Bernard felt a surge of vitality and started discussing where to go for the holidays.
They had been to some places and wanted to take Mirabella to places they hadn’t been. Some places were too cold, and they feared they wouldn’t be able to handle it.
The entire family engaged in a lively discussion about various places. Then Bernard said, “Let’s all calm down and ask Bella’s opinion first.”
Mirabella laughed softly, claiming she didn’t have any particular preferences.
“That’s because Bella is considerate. She doesnt want to burden us. We’ll go with the places I suggested. We can enjoy the snow, the scenery, hiking, and cloud-watching.”After Bernard’s enthusiastic discussion, he started inquiring about his granddaughters’ studies. When he learned that they were both in college, with Mirabella being the top-scoring student, he couldn’t help but praise her.
“Dad, Bella’s talents are not just limited to that. Have you heard of QY? She founded it! Do you like Mirabelle’s paintings? She’s the one who painted them! Are Labella’s calligraphy pieces still hanging in your study? They’re all her work.”
This time, Bernard was so stunned that he couldn’t find the words to respond.
He hadn’t expected his granddaughter to be so talented: a master painter, a calligraphy expert, and a business founder.
