She intended to use Mr. Manchester to suppress the two of them, forcing them to yield.
But Lu Zhi was not easily swayed. He coldly retorted, “Yining treats Abby not because of the old master’s orders, but out of her conscience as a doctor. She cannot bear to see such a young child suffering from illness. You, however, lack discernment. You barged in and even dared to insult her. We cannot serve you anymore. Please leave!”
After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he scolded the servants, “Didn’t I tell you to escort our guests out? Why are you still standing there like idiots?”
The servants promptly moved forward, pushing Luna and Dr. Smith to leave.
Luna was inherently proud and could not bring herself to humble her pride. When she saw how domineering Lu Zhi was, showing her no respect, she got angry and thought about leaving to seek another doctor for her daughter.
Dr. Smith, on the other hand, still wished to continue discussing with Jiang Yining. He reluctantly urged Luna, “Ms. Luna, Miss Abby can only be treated effectively by Miss Jiang. Don’t let your anger cause suffering to your daughter.”
“I refuse to believe her medical skills are exceptional!” Luna stubbornly argued.
Dr. Smith replied, “There may be others, but finding a famous doctor takes time, and Miss Abby may not have that time.”
The House of Manchester was undoubtedly wealthy, capable of bringing in renowned doctors from all over the world to treat Abby. However, nobody knew when they would find a doctor capable of completely curing Abby.
For so many years, Luna and Mr. Manchester had expended a great deal of time and effort to bring in numerous individuals, yet they had not found the right one.
If she let her anger lead her to miss Jiang Yining, Luna would be the one filled with regret!
Dr. Smith, a specially appointed expert from the Royal Swedish Medical Academy, held considerable weight in his words.
At this moment, Luna felt some regret for her impulsive behavior earlier.
She shouldn’t have let the situation escalate to this point.
She thought that lowering her head to Jiang Yining would be more humiliating than ending her life.
Luna remained silent.
The servants, under the oppressive atmosphere created by Lu Zhi, became more agitated as they hurried Luna to leave.
As they reached the entrance of the living room, Abby suddenly began to cry.
“Mom, I don’t want to go. I want Sister Yining to continue treating me,” Abby said.
Luna quickly formulated a plan. Jiang Yining cared for children, right? If Abby actively asked her, she should not be heartless enough to refuse, should she?
“It’s not that I’m forcing you to leave. It’s that they don’t want to continue treating you,” Luna replied, trying to subtly place the blame on Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi.
Abby, on her mother’s shoulder, looked at Jiang Yining and said, “Sister, don’t you like Abby anymore?”
Jiang Yining frowned slightly, frustrated with Luna. Why was it so difficult to admit a mistake? They had come to this point, and she still wouldn’t back down. Instead, she was forcing her own daughter to intervene, which was just a matter of pride.
“Sister does like you.”
“Mom, Sister likes me.”
Abby spoke to her mother.
Luna loosened her grip, setting Abby down, and said, “I’m going back now, Abby. You can stay here yourself. If they don’t listen to you, just find your grandfather on your own.”
This was a clear attempt to force Jiang Yining.
Abby happily ran towards Jiang Yining. “Sister, my mom isn’t taking me with her.”
Lu Zhi, displeased, stepped forward and stopped Abby. He picked her up and quickly walked over to Luna. In a dominant manner, he placed Abby in her mother’s arms.
“Don’t be so brazen in your bullying. If you don’t apologize for your earlier actions, I will never allow Yining to treat Abby. Even if you leave her here, 1’11 send her back,” Lu Zhi declared, his expression ice-cold as he stared at Luna, ignoring any family ties.
Luna was stifled, torn between the desire to walk away to avoid further humiliation and her inability to leave her daughter.
After a prolonged silence, she clenched her teeth and said, “I’m sorry. 1 was worried about Abby’s safety, so I said impolite things. I hope you can forgive me and continue treating my daughter.”
“To whom are you apologizing? Be clear. How will we know who you’re apologizing to?” Lu Zhi demanded.
With a twitch of her mouth, Luna said, “I’m sorry, Miss Jiang.”
After speaking, she looked at Lu Zhi and asked, “Is this enough?”
Lu Zhi responded with a frosty expression, “I know you’re unwilling, and you can’t stand Yining. Rest assured, we feel the same about you. In a few days, we’ll leave here. We’ll have no further ties to you or the House of Manchester..”
