Chapter 71

The color of the blood Margaret vomited was crucial. If it was bright red, it would indicate that the dosage of her medicine was too strong, not only harming her internal organs but also depleting her internal energy.

That would be disastrous.

Melody wasn’t entirely confident about the illness, so on the way here, she was very apprehensive.

Until…

After seeing the color of the blood, she let out a sigh of relief, her face showing a look of great relief. The blood wasn’t bright red but a reddish-brown, similar to the color of pork liver.

“What are you looking at, Miss Fox?” Ramon asked curiously as he approached Melody. He didn’t understand why Melody was squatting on the ground instead of looking at Margaret on the bed first.

“I’m looking at this,” Melody said as she stood up, pointing to the bloodstain on the ground.

“This is the blood my mother vomited,” Ramon said with a grave expression. At first, everyone was frightened by Margaret’s sudden vomiting of blood. He immediately wanted to take Margaret to the hospital, but she stubbornly refused, even threatening to commit suicide by biting her tongue if he took her to the hospital.

In this situation, he didn’t dare to take Margaret to the hospital carelessly and could only invite the doctors who had consulted on her case before.

Then, just a moment ago, Margaret suddenly stopped vomiting blood, and her spirit seemed much better. He wasn’t sure whether this was the last flicker of life or if Melody’s medical skills had taken effect, so he restrained his emotions and invited Melody in politely.

“When she suddenly vomited blood… but after stopping, her spirit suddenly improved. I hope you can tell me truthfully what’s going on,” Ramon said, his voice becoming lower and lower. If there was a problem with Melody’s treatment, he would immediately turn against her.

Melody was about to answer when Margaret suddenly woke up and sat up with a lot of energy, saying, “Melody, you’re here.”

“Grandma!” Ken stepped forward with delight. He was observant and immediately noticed that Grandma’s condition was indeed much better than before.

“Mom!” Ramon also stepped forward to help Margaret.

However, Margaret frowned and turned her head away. “Don’t come any closer! I don’t have sons and grandsons like you two, who would send an old woman like me to the hospital to have a hole cut in my stomach.”

“Grandma…” “Mom…”

Both had a wry smile on their faces. Although Margaret was old, she was quite prone to throwing tantrums like a child, and they were at a loss on how to handle her.

“You stay back. I want to talk to Melody,” Margaret insisted.

Ken very consciously stepped back, but Ramon hesitated, worried about his mother.

“Miss Fox, please take a good look at my mother.”

“Okay,” Melody nodded slightly, stepped forward, and came to the bedside. She held Margaret’s hand and felt her pulse.

The pulse was much better than before. It just needed continued treatment, but this time She was confident that Margaret’s condition would improve with continued treatment.

After feeling the pulse, Melody looked up and asked Margaret, “Margaret, how do you feel now? Do you feel more comfortable than before?”

Yes! I’m much more comfortable than before! I always felt short of breath and my stomach was bloated and uncomfortable, but I don’t feel that way now. I feel my breathing is very smooth and my chest doesn’t feel as tight,” Margaret replied! Margaret gripped her hand back forcefully, her eyes sparkling with tears of excitement.

Melody smiled. “That’s good. You are getting stronger.” The first treatment has taken effect, and we can start the second treatment.

But I vomited blood just now… Margaret said hesitantly. Is there something wrong with me?

Although she was very happy about her improved condition, the continuous vomiting of blood frightened her as well.

No, it’s not that. Melody patiently explained: you vomited blood because of the prescription I gave you. The medicine was prepared with the nuts being decocted and used to smooth the blood. To put it more simply, you vomited blood the excess blood from your stomach, which was the cause of your bloating. Now that you have vomited that blood, it indicates that the condition is improving. In other words, if you did not vomit this blood, that would be abnormal, so you can rest assured.

After hearing what Melody said, Margaret finally felt completely reassured, holding Melody’s hand and touching it repeatedly, as if she had found a treasure.

At first, she also shared Astrid’s disdain for Melody’s upbringing and appearance, but now she no longer cared about these things at all.

Good girl, I owe you so much this time… To be honest, a few days ago, I even thought about committing suicide. Living like that was more tiring than just dying, to avoid burdening the whole family…

Margaret…Melody couldn’t help but frown with concern.

She remembered that in her previous life, Margaret had committed suicide by jumping off a building. Was it because of this illness? Now that she cured Margaret’s illness, would history repeat itself? Finding out was very important to ensure Margaret’s safety. If she could rewrite Margaret’s fate, then she could certainly rewrite her own fate.

It was said that man could conquer fate, but her own rebirth was already a divine will. She was very curious to know if she could defy God’s will and change her destiny.

While Melody was lost in her thoughts, the doctors happened to hear what Melody had said.

Liam blurted out, Nonsense! What blood? This is clearly internal organ damage, and she needs to go to the operating room immediately! Margaret, Mr. Ramon, don’t be deceived by this little girl!

These past few days, they, as doctors, have not been idle and have held several meetings for Margaret to determine the treatment plan.

Today, they came here to take Margaret to the hospital for surgery.

Ramon was taken aback by Liam’s words and instinctively looked at Margaret.

Margaret’s expression darkened, and she said, didn’t you hear what Melody said? I have already improved, and you still want to drag me into the operating room for a knife? Are you trying to force me to die?

The voice was full of vigor, without a trace of her previous illness.

No, Ramon completely abandoned the idea of sending Margaret for surgery and tried to comfort her. Mom, don’t get excited. We will definitely not send you into the operating room, so don’t worry.

Margaret’s expression improved slightly and she looked at the doctors and said, I don’t want to see them. Make them leave immediately!

Ramon nodded repeatedly, turned to the doctors with an apologetic smile, and said, sorry guys, you’ve made a trip for nothing.

He said motioning with his eyes to the butler.

The butler understood, stepped forward, politely made a gesture of invitation, and said: Please, have some coffee and a little token of appreciation is prepared for you downstairs.

The butler said, half pushing and half inviting, forcibly took the doctors out.

Liam was angry and directly left a harsh remark. “Ramon, you will regret your decision today! Didn’t she say she could cure it in a week? In a few days, I guarantee you will come to us!”
