My Fabulous Girl Boss

Chapter 5

“Dr. Ewell, stop speaking so nice of him. This b*stard wanted to deceive my grandfather with sh*t! “He took a few goat droppings, claiming they’re pills, and wanted my grandfather to consume them!” Liam was startled and questioned icily, “Really?” Zachary was astonished as well, feeling doubtful. “That’s impossible…” Hugh did not look too delighted, but he mediated the situation with a smile. “Nothing like that. My granddaughter’s making things up. Kayson wouldn’t do that to me.” Liam spoke tersely. “Dad, Sadie wouldn’t lie. I think it’s best we get to the bottom of this. It’ll be unsettling having someone with ulterior motives in the house!” Hugh looked worse. Liam and Sadie’s prejudice toward Kayson was truly too strong. It was just that Hugh thought they should at least save Kayson some pride when there was an outsider around. Kayson was calm, like he did not mind what was happening. Zachary could not say much, but he felt that the young man was not someone like that. “Hmm?” Zachary suddenly sniffed and asked, “Why’s there a scent?” Sadie quickly answered, “Dr. Ewell, it must be the goat droppings. I threw them away!” Zachary was alarmed and looked at the trashcan, catching sight of four pills the size of goat droppings in there. He did not care that it was a trashcan and picked one of the pills up to take a whiff. Immediately after that, the famous miracle doctor of Skyriv wore a look of disbelief. “H-How is this similar to the long-lost Panmederi pill!?” Sadie froze and felt her heart lurch. “Dr. Ewell, you must be mistaken.

It’s similar to the name my mentor mentioned,” answered Kayson. Zachary gasped. “Can you sell me the pills, Kayson? Whatever price you name!” Kayson chortled. “Leave one for Grandpa Hugh, and you can have the rest, Dr. Ewell.” Zachary was overjoyed as he held his breath from the excitement. “R-Really!? Thank you so much!” Liam wore a flurry of emotions while Sadie froze in shock. “D-Dr. Ewell, these are… actually medicinal pills?” Hugh asked awkwardly with a grimace. Zachary replied with a firm nod and carefully placed all four pills on the table as if they were gems. “Mr. Wolfenden Sr., the Panmederi pill is a long-lost wonder drug for healing. The formula was lost centuries ago. “In the ancient times, this was something only high-ranking military officers could enjoy! “If I weren’t a little more knowledgeable thanks to my ancestors, I wouldn’t be able to recognize these gems. These are genuine pills here, Mr. Wolfenden Sr.!” Hugh
