**Chapter 330**<\/p>\n
From the moment Penelope had begun her relentless pursuit of Hutton Corp., boldly asserting that she possessed the ability to heal Florence\u2019s legs, James had taken immediate action. He ordered a thorough background check on her, driven by a mixture of skepticism and protectiveness. What he uncovered was far from impressive; there was no evidence of any successful treatments or healings attributed to her. Instead, a troubling array of dubious dealings and questionable associations painted a picture of a woman more interested in self-promotion than genuine medical practice.<\/p>\n
In stark contrast stood Sydney, who had been quietly acknowledged by Raymond as Alan\u2019s chosen prot\u00e9g\u00e9. With a solid fifteen years of rigorous medical training under her belt, she had never once felt the need to boast about her qualifications. For years, she had diligently worked at Lumosa Clinic, gradually building an impeccable reputation among her patients, who spoke of her with nothing but admiration and respect.<\/p>\n
So, what on earth had ignited Penelope\u2019s audacity to draw comparisons between herself and Sydney?<\/p>\n
As James observed Penelope\u2019s unwavering confidence, he decided it was time to confront her with the harsh truth. \u201cMy mother has been disabled for over a decade,\u201d he stated firmly, his voice steady. \u201cShe has been confined to a wheelchair all these years. Do you truly believe you can treat that?\u201d<\/p>\n
The question hung in the air, and Penelope\u2019s expression faltered, a look of disbelief washing over her features. \u201cWhat?\u201d she stammered, her eyes darting to Sydney, searching for validation. \u201cSince when can you cure disabilities? Are you really willing to lie just to ingratiate yourself with the Huttons?\u201d<\/p>\n
Sydney, maintaining her composure, offered a faint smile, her tone light yet laced with an edge. \u201cI\u2019ve always been able to treat such conditions. Rather than plotting against others, perhaps you should focus on honing your medical skills.\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, she and James stepped into the elevator, leaving Penelope standing there, frustration boiling within her as security blocked her path.<\/p>\n
Once outside Hutton Corp., Penelope\u2019s demeanor shifted dramatically. The weight of her thoughts darkened her expression as she made a beeline back to her own office. Summoning Ryan urgently, she wasted no time in getting to the heart of the matter.<\/p>\n
\u201cTell me, what are the chances of curing someone whose legs have been disabled for over a decade?\u201d she demanded, her voice tinged with desperation.<\/p>\n
The more she pondered the situation, the more ludicrous it appeared. If such miraculous recoveries were indeed possible, Sydney\u2019s name would undoubtedly rival Alan\u2019s on a national scale. She wouldn\u2019t need to toil over drug development; simply treating affluent families would have made her a fortune.<\/p>\n
Ryan\u2019s brow furrowed at her question. \u201cHow much chance?\u201d he echoed, clearly caught off guard.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, how much?\u201d she pressed, her impatience palpable.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly? Not even 10%,\u201d he replied, pulling out a chair and settling into it across from her. \u201cIf the injury were recent, there might be a glimmer of hope. But after ten years? It\u2019s simply not feasible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Realization dawned on Penelope; Sydney was precisely what she had suspected\u2014a deceiver, playing the Huttons for fools.<\/p>\n
She leaned in, her voice low and conspiratorial. \u201cSo, in cases like this, there\u2019s no one who can cure it, correct?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou could say that,\u201d Ryan conceded, then added thoughtfully, \u201cExcept for Alan Conton. He is the heir to ancient acupuncture techniques. Those methods are known to work wonders on many rare conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d Penelope\u2019s face contorted with a mixture of envy and resentment. \u201cSo if he has indeed passed those techniques down to Sydney, she might actually be capable of curing it\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThose techniques are only passed down to one heir per generation,\u201d Ryan reminded her, his tone serious. \u201cDr. Conton is bound to pass them solely to his formally accepted prot\u00e9g\u00e9.\u201d<\/p>\n
As Penelope absorbed this information, a wave of anxiety twisted within her, only to be replaced by a smug satisfaction. A triumphant smile crept across her face. Sydney was walking straight into her own trap, brazenly attempting to deceive the Huttons. She could hardly contain her excitement at the thought of witnessing Sydney\u2019s downfall.<\/p>\n
Oblivious to Penelope\u2019s scheming, Ryan prepared to leave. \u201cIs that all then? I should be going.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHold on,\u201d she interrupted, halting him in his tracks. \u201cWhat about the feedback data from the trial patients?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ryan frowned, suspicion creeping into his expression. \u201cWhere exactly did you even obtain the research data for this drug?\u201d<\/p>\n
Penelope\u2019s smile widened, a glint of mischief in her eyes. \u201cThe results are nothing short of excellent, wouldn\u2019t you agree?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cExcellent? More like a joke!\u201d Ryan shot back, his frustration bubbling to the surface. \u201cThe effects are no better than the cancer drugs already available on the market. At best, you could say they\u2019re neither harmful nor helpful.\u201d<\/p>\n
As the tension between Penelope and Sydney escalated, the emotional stakes rose to an unbearable height. Penelope, driven by desperation and envy, had become a puppet master, orchestrating a scheme to undermine Sydney\u2019s reputation. Yet, in her quest for validation, she had overlooked the very essence of healing: authenticity and compassion. Sydney, on the other hand, stood unwavering, her quiet confidence a testament to her years of dedication and skill. The contrast between the two women illuminated a deeper truth about the nature of ambition\u2014while Penelope sought to elevate herself through deceit, Sydney embodied the values of hard work and integrity. This chapter marked a turning point, where the battle lines were drawn not just between two women, but between the hollow allure of ambition and the profound impact of genuine care.<\/p>\n
As Penelope plotted her next move, a sense of irony enveloped her. The very techniques she coveted were rooted in a tradition that prioritized wisdom and mastery over mere bravado. In her pursuit of Sydney\u2019s downfall, Penelope had unwittingly trapped herself in a web of her own making, where her envy could only lead to her isolation. Meanwhile, Sydney continued to navigate her path with grace, embodying the true spirit of a healer. The chapter closed with a poignant reminder: while ambition can drive one forward, it is the sincerity of one\u2019s intentions that ultimately shapes their legacy. In the end, it was not just a battle for recognition; it was a revelation that in the realm of healing, authenticity reigns supreme, and only those who embrace it can truly make a difference.<\/p>\n
