Chapter 99 The revelation that Paisley y was actually Charles mentor hit like a bomb .
Even for these big shots whod seen their share of shocking twists , this was too much to process .
The room went dead silent as the news sank in Thats impossible Marissas perfectly composed mask finally cracked .
Her face , usually the picture of grace and serenity , twisted with disbelief .
Mr.
Hansen , you cant be serious .
Shes so young .
Theres no way she could be your mentor This cant be real , Marissa thought .
Taisley as Mr.
Hansens mentor ? Who does she think she is What makes her so special ? Shes nobody .
absolutely nobody Marissa couldnt accept this .
Charles was seething .
This was the second time Marissa had disrespected Paisley , and his patience was wearing thin .
The first time had been bad enough , but at least Paisley hadnt been there to witness it But now , Marissa was being nude night in front of bath of them Youre completely out of line .
Charles voice trembled with anger , the warmth hed shown Marissa earlier completely gone .
I only asked my mentor to come here because you seemed genuinely concerned and respectful .
I wouldnt have bothered her otherwise .
Charles had already caught enough grief from Paisley just for asking her to come .
And now that shes actually here , youre refusing to believe it ! His voice rose in frustration .
Seeing Charles mounting anger , Marissa bit her lip , her face darkening .
Mr.
Hansen , its not that I dont believe you .
Its just this is completely insanc Paisley was two years younger than h her .
Marissa couldnt believe that Paisley would actually be Charles mentor .
Whats so hard to believe Charles face darkened as he defended Paisley .
Ms.
Suttons medical skills surpass my own .
Why shouldnt I study under her ! This scene sent Paisleys cringe meter through the roof .
She fidgeted uncomfortably , shooting an annoyed glare at Charles .
Just then , Jonathan came rushing out of the consultation room .
Hed been stuck dealing with an urgent matter when Paisley arrived , and hed come running the moment he finished .
Like everyone else , he was dying to meet this mysterious medical expert whod taught Charles Before Jonathan could even reach them , Reginald stepped in his path .
Mr.
Walsh , didnt you mention knowing an incredibly skilled practitioner of Ancient Medical Arts ! Yeah , thats right With his view blocked , Jonathan hadnt noticed Paisley at first .
He nodded at Reginalds question .
Reginald gave an apologetic smile .
Would you mind getting in touch with them ? He couldnt gamble with his fathers life at a time like this .
If Charles mento mentor had been anyone else , maybe Reginald could have forced himself to believe it .
But this was Paisley , Dominicks ex wife .
During her four year marriage to Dominick , Paisley had been nothing more than a typical housewife .

The idea that she could transform into some medical genius in just four years was ridiculous .
No one in their right mind would buy that story .
Jonathan looked confused .
What do you mean lurt Mr.
Hansens mentor already here ? Even Mr.
Hansens mentor couldnt help him ? Jonathan wondered .
But how could they reach that conchision so fast It had been less than ten minutes since Charles left to pick up Paisley , and Jonathan had barely finished his work before rushing over That was nowhere near enough time to make any real diagnosis .
She has arrived , but Before i Reginald could finish , Paisleys voice cut dirough from behind Paisley said, Jonathan Jonathan turned to find Paisley blocked by the Vanderbilts , her face stormy with anger .
Next to her stood Charles , looking like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar despite his age .
Jonathans face ace lit up .
Paisley , did you come because of my message ? Unsure whether Charles mentor could help Paul , he decided to text Paisley , just to give it a shot .
He didnt go into details , not knowing if Paisley would even be willing to come .
When Paisley hadnt replied to his text , hed assumed it was a no .
Yet , here she was , standing right in front of him .
