The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 53

Yvonne’s eyes lit up!

“Miss Yvonne, there are loads of loaded folks on the deep web. You could make a killing without even trying.”

Yvonne was itching to give it a go, and cautiously she opened up the deep web. Sure enough, there were a bunch of high–ticket orders waiting.

The top few orders all came from the same account, untouched by anyone.

“Thorpe’s trying to rope in Phantom Surgeon Lunaris to treat his family, with a whopping offer of a billion bucks! That’s a truckload of cash! But I don’t know squat about medicine…”

Even though she majored in medicine back in college, she never attended those classes. The thought of dissections with mice and bunnies made her see those folks as nothing but crude and filthy.

So she paid others to attend all her classes. Now, forget medical skills, she couldn’t even make heads or tails of a basic prescription!

The nanny was unimpressed.

“Aren’t you trained in medicine? Treating a patient should be a walk in the park for you, right? I see a lot of doctors these days just googling stuff and scribbling down some meds. If anything comes up, you can just hit up Dr. Calvin. This could be your shot to strut your stuff.”

And we’re talking a billion dollars here!

Yvonne was practically squirming with excitement!

But she was terrified she’d be tongue–tied when the time came. Better to check out the other

orders first!

She shut down the laptop, not realizing she had inadvertently clicked “accept” on the order.

“I’m off to take an exam at school. I’ll check out the easier orders when I get back.”

“Sure thing.”

Yvonne always had someone else sit her exams in exchange for cash, but she was dead broke now, couldn’t cough up the money for a stand–in. Time to face the music herself!

After wrapping up a surgery, Ulrich didn’t even have time to catch his breath before rushing off

to the lab.

He knew all too well the kind of characters his lab doctors were a bunch of snooty. self–righteous types. He had to pull out all the stops just to get them to willingly follow his lead!
