“Yeah, I’m the patient. I’ve had this issue with my legs for many years. Think you can fix it, Doc?” Winnie looked at Bonnie with hopeful eyes.
“Let me take a look first,” Bonnie said, though she already knew she could heal Winnie’s legs. After a quick examination, she added, “It’s pretty severe, but I can treat it. Still, it might take some time for you to recover fully.”
Winnie was overjoyed. She grabbed Bonnie’s hand and said, “Really? You can cure me?”
Ivor glanced at Bonnie’s hand and noticed its complexion matched her exposed neck. He began to wonder if he had been overthinking things.
‘Perhaps Bonnie really was just teasing Grandma.‘
Bonnie noticed Ivor gazing at her hand. She could not help but smirk beneath her mask. She knew he was always observant and suspicious. With what Bonnie told Winnie several days ago, it was highly likely that the older woman had told Ivor about it.
That was why Bonnie chose to disguise herself as a man. Initially, she did not mind revealing her identity to Winne. However, Bonnie saw Winnie’s disbelief and figured explaining it to Ivor would be another hassle. After careful reconsideration, she opted not to expose her true identity.

Nonetheless, she reassured Winnie, “Don’t worry. I can cure your legs.”
Winne was ecstatic. “You’re amazing! I don’t feel any soreness already. You’re a miracle worker, Doc.”
Bonnie smiled while packing her things. She then stood up and said, “I’ll come back at the same time next week.”
As she was about to leave, Ivor stood up and said, “I’ll walk you out.”
“No need to be so formal, Mr. Ivor. You should stay and care for your grandma instead. I have something to attend to anyway.” Bonnie felt uneasy under Ivor’s intense gaze.
“It’s okay. I’ll escort you out,” Ivor insisted, “I want to discuss my grandmother’s treatment with you.”
Bonnie was unable to decline his offer and could only agree reluctantly, “All right
then.”
While walking ahead, Bonnie said, “I’ve explained your grandma’s situation
properly just now, Mr. Ivor. Do you have further questions?”
Ivor scrutinized Bonnie from head to toe and asked, “You mentioned that she won’t show immediate results. How long till this whole thing blows over? I’d like to have an idea of when that is.”
“Well… At least three months. Your grandma’s leg issue has been around for a while, after all. We need to treat it slowly and can’t rush it. We’ll gradually remove the osteoarthritis and then strengthen her body. She should be as good as new within six months,” Bonnie explained.
“Six months, huh?” Ivor looked surprised. “Then she’ll be as good as new?”
Ivor sighed and added, “I’m curious. If you’re so skilled at medicine, why haven’t I heard much about you?”
Bonnie raised a brow. “If that were the case, do you think I’d have time for my personal affairs? Besides, medicine is just my hobby, not my primary profession.”
Ivor was even more surprised.
‘It’s just a hobby, yet he’s already achieved so much? Who is this guy?‘ “We’ve talked for so long, and I still don’t know your name, Doc.”
