Is Féraphine out of her mind asking for such a sky-high price?
Tom had already done his homework on Féraphine's consultation fees, which usually ranged from a few hundred
million to maybe a billion at most. But this? This was several times that amount! Had he not been sure that he
and Féraphine were total strangers, he might've thought he had somehow crossed her path the wrong way and
this was her payback. But thinking it over, he couldn't recall any incident where he might've offended her; they
hadn't even crossed paths before. He just chalked it up to Féraphine making an outrageous demand. "Two
hundred billion, fine, we'll pay it! Get Féraphine over here to treat Cindy right now!" Tom muttered through
gritted teeth, clearly feeling the sting of such a steep price. Two hundred billion! Féraphine better be sure she
can actually cure Cindy!
After catching up with Crimson, Flora was about to settle down for a rest when Mr. Tanner showed up with Felene
in tow. Mr. Tanner had swung by a few times before, but always seemed to drop by when Flora was catching
sshut-eye, so he hadn't had the chance to see her. Knowing Flora's relationship with the team was a bit
lukewarm, he only brought Felene along, hoping not to add to her stress. They were all genuinely worried about
Flora, carefully sidestepping any talk of the competition-especially since Flora's hand was injured and she
couldn't compete.

asked, his voice tinged with worry. Flora's hand was critical, after all.
He wasn't one for conspiracy theories, but Flora's accident was just too odd, too suspicious. He always sensed
there was someone out to get Flora.
"I'm aware of my own condition," Flora replied.
"If anything feels off, you must tell me," Mr. Tanner insisted. They'd head back to Austenberg immediately if
needed!
Seeing Mr. Tanner so on edge, Flora just nodded. Felene gave Mr. Tanner a knowing look. His concern was getting
the better of him. Couldn't he see the hospital was swarming with people committed to Flora's safety? Every
doctor they ran into treated her with the utmost respect. Who would dare mess with her?
"We didn't have much going on
today, so we thought we'd drop by and see how you're doing. Seeing you're okay puts our minds at ease We'll let
you rest now," Mr. Tanner said after chatting for a bit and noticing Flora's fatigue. Standing up to leave, he
paused mid-sentence and added, "Take care of yourself. Don't worry about the finals; we'll handle it."
Given Flora's current state, it was obvious she couldn't compete in the finals. After her accident, reactions
pitied her, others
sympathized, and a few were waiting to see her fall. But he didn't bother with them. Flora's well-being was what
mattered most. Felene too looked a bit downcast and disappointed. Just when they had reached the finals, Flora
had an accident...
Noticing their concerned expressions, Flora spoke up lightly, "I'm going to participate in the finals."
What?
She was going to compete in the finals?
Mr. Tanner and Felene were taken aback.
"But, your hand..."
The doctors had said Flora's hand wouldn't be up to par anytsoon. With the finals looming, how could she
possibly compete with an injured hand? The finals were all about practical skills, requiring the use of surgical
tools. Meeting their skeptical looks with a small smile, Flora's voice brimmed with determination, "Even with just
one hand, | can win."
