?Chapter 536:
Karen couldn’t believe it. What kind of insane method was this? Elena actually thought she could treat her grandfather? Was she crazy? And was Wesley insane too for allowing this?
Karen’s face twisted with fury. “Mr. Todd, throw her out! Now!”
The butler, Leo Todd, hesitated. “Uh… Miss Spencer, Mr. Spencer personally invited her…”
“So what?” Karen snapped. “Did you not hear what she just said? She never even went to medical school! She knows nothing! She’s a damn fraud!”
Elena didn’t bother defending herself. She came because Wesley asked her to. That was enough. If his family didn’t want her help, that was their problem—not hers.
Just as Leo struggled with what to do, Wesley strode in from outside. “Mr. Todd, take her to my grandfather’s room.”
“Wesley! Elena is clueless about medicine. How could you let her treat our grandpa? Don’t tell me you’re like those people say, hoping our grandpa won’t recover. You couldn’t…” Karen’s words tumbled out in a rush of panic. Before she could finish, Wesley’s frosty stare cut her off, and she fell silent.
Wesley’s voice was detached as he asked, “What were you about to say?”
“Well…” Karen hesitated, her mouth opening but no words followed. Earlier, she had been too flustered to think clearly.
Rumors had swirled ever since Gerald became ill. Karen had caught wind of unsettling whispers using Wesley of not wanting Gerald to heal, seeing it as an opportunity to edge out Joseph and Theo from the Spencer Group. Some even suggested Wesley had caused Gerald’s sickness to lessen his influence within thepany.
Karen was unaware of the internal struggles within thepany, yet she refused to believe the rumors. Wesley had long held control over the Spencer Group, making any harm to Gerald illogical. Moreover, Gerald had always favored Wesley, so there was no reason for Wesley to harm him.
Karen dropped her gaze, not daring to meet Wesley’s eyes. Her voice weakened. “Nothing.”
Wesley’s eyes shifted away, briefly passing over Elena without expression, his face unreadable.

Elena demurely lowered hershes, then rose and followed Leo upstairs. Seeing this, Karen’s anxiety deepened. “Wesley, you can’t allow Elena to treat our grandpa. She’ll only make things worse!”
Elena responded calmly, “How would harming your grandfather benefit me?”
Karen was briefly taken aback. It was true—there was no benefit in this.
“But still, you can’te anywhere near my grandpa! Even the expert team from abroad couldn’t cure him. Are you saying you’re better than the experts?” Karen retorted sharply.
Elena stole a nce at Wesley. It was the first time their eyes had met since he walked into the room, and itsted only a moment.
Wesley remained unfazed and waved Karen off, saying, “Since when did you be the one making decisions for the Spencer family? Come question my decisions when you do.”
“Wesley!” Karen’s foot hit the floor in frustration, but she could only watch as Elena ascended the stairs. With a sense of unease, she followed behind them.
The spaciousness of Gerald’s bedroom was apparent, with mahogany furniture and ssic artwork adorning the walls. All the doors and windows were firmly closed.
