Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 202

Chapter 202 Ashley

Geo accepted the delicate porcelain vial with a relaxed smile playing on his lips. “Well then, I suppose I won’t bother with formalities,” he said lightly.

He had witnessed the remarkable medical talents of this young woman firsthand—though not directly himself. Jorge had recounted just how perilous Geo’s condition had been, emphasizing the sheer danger he had faced. The fact that Lillian had managed to pull him back from the edge of death spoke volumes about her skill. Even more impressive was that she had achieved this feat using traditional remedies, knowledge carefully preserved and handed down through generations. Who would have imagined someone so young could command such expertise with such finesse?

Adding to that, Geo had taken pills manufactured by Skyreach Pharmaceuticals, and their effects were nothing short of miraculous. Even the country’s leading doctors had been left in awe. If the pills Lillian crafted by hand were even more potent, he had no doubt they were truly exceptional.

Those gathered around watched in stunned silence. Many had brought lavish birthday gifts, expensive and carefully chosen, yet Geo hadn’t spared any of them a glance. Instead, it was this young girl’s simple offering—a single health pill—that he had accepted personally. Their gazes naturally lingered on her, curiosity piqued by the unusual scene.

Just then, Austin and Houston entered, their footsteps light but confident. “Hahaha! Lillian, my dear girl, could he possibly beg for one more pill from you?” Austin teased with a broad grin.

Lillian’s face brightened at the sight of the two men. “Hello, Mr. Austin, Mr. Houston,” she greeted warmly.

The pair approached Geo, Austin’s smile widening. “Geo, my apologies, my apologies—we’re late.”

Geo chuckled, shaking his head in mock disappointment. “You old scoundrels. I was beginning to think you’d forgotten all about me.”

Austin’s grin held a hint of pride. “It’s been a busy year, I’ll admit. Not long after Lillian treated my daughter-in-law, she became pregnant and gave birth to a strong, healthy boy. Our whole family has been wrapped around that little bundle ever since.”

Mentioning his grandson made Austin’s smile deepen with genuine happiness. Thanks to Lillian’s skill, his household was now filled with joy and harmony.

Geo glanced at Lillian in surprise. “So she cured your daughter-in-law too?”

“That’s right,” Austin said, puffing up with pride. “Her medical talent is something I truly admire. My daughter-in-law only took the medicine Lillian gave her for a month, and by the third month, she was already expecting.”

“That’s why I say her medicine is extraordinary. The pill she just handed you? There’s only one in each bottle. She gave me one last time as well. I hadn’t dared to use it myself, but my wife ended up taking it instead.”

“The results were incredible. Now she spends her days hiking mountains with her friends, while I’m stuck at home, envious. So here I am, shamelessly asking for another one.”

Cayden laughed as he added, “I swear, Ashley’s telling the truth. I’m one of the ones who’s had to listen to it all.”

“Ashley, don’t be so rude,” Tania chided her daughter gently before turning to Lillian with an apologetic smile. “Please don’t mind her; she’s spoiled and doesn’t always know how to weigh her words properly.”

Lillian returned the smile warmly. “It’s quite alright. There aren’t many girls nowadays as straightforward as Miss Locke. That honesty is truly her greatest charm.”

Ashley’s pride swelled at the compliment. “See? Someone actually appreciates my personality. I could never be the type to hide things—I just can’t help it.” She gave Lillian a playful wink.

Tania gave a helpless little smile. “As long as you’re happy.”

Noticing how well everyone was getting along, Geo waved a hand toward Ashley. “Ashley, Lillian came to the party alone today. Make sure you take good care of her for me.”

Ashley straightened, full of enthusiasm. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I won’t let your honored guest feel neglected.”
