Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back

Chapter 5 As they watched, they saw with their own eyes how the swelling lumps on Anna's body gradually faded away, and the protruding veins retreated beneath her skin.

An hour later, Miranda was the first to emerge from the room.

"She's awake now and can move around freely. I've written out the medical instructions; just make sure Ms. Lancaster follows them strictly. You're welcto go in and see her, but try not to disturb her too much." The entire Lancaster family, upon hearing this, rushed into the room in disbelief. Elian also stood up abruptly. As he strode past Miranda, he paused for a moment, his voice hoarse as he said, "Thank you, Dad." Miranda's lips curled into a smile. "You're welcome." Elian's smile deepened before he quickly continued into the room.

Miranda strolled over to where Elian had been sitting and casually picked up an orange, peeling it to satisfy her hunger.

After all, she hadn't eaten since leaving prison and coming here to treat the patient.

When they reemerged from the room, their attitude toward Miranda had completely changed.

"I'm sorry, Miss the Great Healer, I didn't recognize your talent before!" Jonas exclaimed with enthusiasm, "From now on, if you ever need anything, just say the word, and we will be there for you!" "Miss the Great Healer, you've beca benefactor to our family!" After visiting Anna, Elian received a phone call about urgent matters that required his immediate attention. But before leaving, he cast a long, thoughtful look at Miranda, his eyes filled with curiosity and intrigue. "If there's a chance, I'd like to invite you for a meal sometime." With those words, he turned and left with his entourage.

Miranda, chewing on her orange, took a glance at Elian's retreating figure. She remarked, "Quite the show, that one. All flash, no substance. A bit of a pompous attitude, really." Then she turned her attention to Lavinia, who was wiping away tears of joy.

Lavinia quickly understood and stepped forward. "I'll personally see you off. Rest assured, I've arranged everything. From now on, you're my daughter, a member of the Lancaster family!" Miranda's lips twitched into a smile. "Alright." This was one of the conditions Miranda had set for treating Anna - to have a place to stay after her release. But she hadn't expected Lavinia to go as far as to give her an identity within the family.

Miranda had sknowledge about the Lancaster family, a result of overhearing discussions during her twith the Hawke family.

The Lancaster family, with a history of producing two high-ranking government officials, held a unique status among the elite. Even after transitioning to commerce, their scale and market monopoly held second to none in the country, placing them among the top one hundred globally.

Compared to the Hawke family, the Lancaster family was in a league of its own. The former merely ranked in the top five hundred, far behind the Lancasters, not to mention the status in the elite circle.

Anna had made significant contributions to the country in her youth, making her not only a beloved family member but also a figurehead for the Lancaster family. This was why they were particularly concerned about her illness, and Miranda's successful treatment made her a hero to them.

As Lavinia drove Miranda to the villa, she took the opportunity to introduce Elian.

"His nis Elian, my sister's son, my nephew. Except for me, he isn't close to anyone else in the family. He's a bit of a lone wolf, not many can get close to him. But his heart is in the right place. Ever since Mrs. Anna Lancaster fell ill, he's been coming back often to check on her and has sought out many renowned doctors, though without much success.' Lavinia chuckled, glancing at Miranda beside her. "The reason you saw them giving Elian so much respect is that he's the youngest grandson of the Ashcroft family in Virell. If you're not familiar with the Ashcroft family, don't worry; you'll learn about them in time." A good person? Miranda had her doubts.

That man, from head to toe, didn't seem like the type with an ounce of kindness. More like a predator, a wolf that devoured without leaving a trace, chewing you up until there was nothing left. The Ashcroft family was something Miranda could only vaguely recall from this body's memories.

But she didn't extract much information. She only heard her parents and her four brothers mention the noccasionally.

Though she wasn't sure, the snippets from their conversations suggested that the Ashcroft family was a step above even the Lancaster family. This was why the Lancaster family held Elian in such high regard.

However, judging by the way the Lancaster familyskittish a there wa around Elian, it seemed like was more to the story than what Lavinia had let on. As they chatted, the car smoothly pulled up to the villa.

The villa sat right in the heart of the city, and everything inside was arranged according to the whims of a young girl.

While it didn't exactly match Miranda's current tastes, she didn't mind it either.

The butler and the staff lined up in two neat rows, bowing respectfully as they said, "Welchome, Miss!"
