[What’s wrong?]
[Chronic arthritis in my legs for decades.]
“Huh?” Kaia made a questioning sound.
Chronic arthritis in the legs? What a coincidence!
Tobias‘ grandma also suffered from that in her legs.
Just as Kaia was thinking this, Wilson sent another message.
[Guess who posted the mission?]
Kaia sat up and replied after thinking for two seconds.
[Tobias?]
Wilson, on the other end, was stunned.
[How did you know? Don’t tell me you divined it by counting on your fingers?]
Kaia tapped her finger on the phone screen and finally sent a message.
[Guess]
It was indeed him. So, that expert didn’t cure Grandma’s leg condition.
Wilson called this time.

“Sweet Kaia, you shouldn’t take this mission, okay? You’re not in good health. Let’s talk about it later.”
“How much money did Tobias give for posting the mission?” Kaia asked curiously.
“Two billion, no, Sweet Kaia, you can’t disregard your health for money. If you need money, I’ll give it to you. Not to mention two billion, even a hundred billion, a thousand billion. I’m willing to offer the entire SR Alliance as a wedding gift!” Wilson begged.
Kaia clicked her tongue, “Two billion, what a spendthrift.”
“Sweet Kaia, did you hear what I said? I’m proposing to you. I want to use the SR as a betrothal gift. 1-” Wilson added.
“I have something else to do. I’m hanging up,” Kaia said.

“Hello?” Wilson pressed.
How heartless…but he liked that about her.

Kaia touched her chin, her eyes on the scenery outside the window, her thoughts drifting.
What should she do? Should she rush to Tobias and say that she was the one who cured
Wilson’s mother?
No, that was not appropriate.
She had never thought about revealing her medical skills because she was afraid that patients would line up to find her every day. It wasn’t that she was boasting, but with her medical skills, she estimated that her doorstep would be worn out by the endless stream of visitors.
The next day, Kaia came to Pauline’s ward.
“Grandma, is Tobias not here?” she asked.
Pauline smiled, “You miss him? I’ll call him now and have him come over.”
Kaia coughed softly, the tips of her ears slightly red.
“You’ve misunderstood. I just asked casually because I saw he wasn’t here,” she said.
Seeing that Pauline didn’t believe her and was dialing a number, she quickly added, “Grandma, you shouldn’t bother him at work. I think I heard Devin say yesterday that the Moreno Group is holding a very important meeting today.”
Hearing Kaia say this, Pauline didn’t proceed with the call.
“There’s fruit in the fruit basket. What would you like to eat? I’ll get it for you,” Pauline said.
Enthusiastically, she got out of bed. “Ouch–it hurts, it hurts-”
Suddenly, her leg started hurting, and she grimaced in pain.
“Grandma, let me help you to bed,” Kaia said immediately.
She quickly helped Pauline to sit on the edge of the bed. At that moment, Pauline’s face was pale with pain.
“This leg of mine, I really wish I could just saw it off! When it flares up, it’s a killer!” Pauline complained.
Kaia frowned and reached out to Pauline’s leg, “Let me massage it for you.”

“No need. Even if I hired a professional masseuse, it wouldn’t do much for my legs. They’re pretty much ruined.” Pauline said.
As she spoke, she was surprised to find that the sore, bloated feeling in her legs was slowly easing under Kaia’s massage.
“Hey? You’re pretty good at massaging. It feels even better than a professional masseuse. I already feel a lot more comfortable after just a minute,” Pauline said.
“Good that you feel comfortable. I’ll massage you for a little longer, and if you trust me, I can try dry needling later,” Kaia said.
“Dry needling?” Pauline was a bit stunned.
“Yes,” Kaia nodded.
But Pauline frowned deeply. She had underestimated Kaia a bit earlier at the hospital entrance. Who knew that this girl really knew a thing or two about medicine? Pauline already felt much better after this short massage.
But massage was one thing–dry needling involves inserting needles into the body. This was no joking matter.
Of course, Pauline wasn’t saying this because she didn’t trust Kaia, but because if the needle was inserted in the wrong place, she might lose half her life.
“Child, just give me a massage for now. As for dry needling… We can discuss that another time,” Pauline said.
Afraid that Kaia would be unhappy, she added, “Actually, Tobias is looking for a powerful medical expert for me. That big shot has incredible medical skills.”
Kaia opened her mouth and was about to say something, but paused for two seconds before saying, “Are you talking about the person who saved the number one boss of the SR Alliance?”
Pauline was surprised at first that Kaia knew about it, but then she thought it must have been Tobias who told her.
“Yes, it’s that expert,” she nodded.
Kaia stood up, looked at Pauline with a serious face, and said, “Actually, I am the one who saved the number one boss of the SR Alliance.”
At this, Pauline’s pupils kept enlarging.
But Kaia was not surprised by Pauline’s reaction. After all, her disguise was quite shocking.

“Pfft—hahaha—” Pauline laughed out loud, “Child, you are really surprising! Every time I see you, you always have a serious look on your face. In every way, you don’t seem like a twenty- year–old! Today, I have a new understanding of you. I didn’t expect you to have such a humorous side.”
“I’m not joking,” Kaia managed to choke out after a long time.
Pauline took Kaia’s hand and cradled it in her own. “My dear, I know you said those things just to cheer me up. For someone with your reserved nature to lower your guard like this, just to make an old woman like me happy… You truly have a kind heart. Tobias is so fortunate to have you as his future wife. How wonderful…truly wonderful.”
Kaia was lost for a response.
Her expression was blank. What should she say?
Looking at Pauline, who didn’t believe her words at all, she felt it was better not to say anything.
Originally, she was thinking that if Pauline didn’t believe her, she would directly tell Tobias.
Given the current situation, even if she said it, it would probably have the same effect.
At this moment, Wilson sent another message.
[You haven’t replied to me yet. Are you taking this mission or not? If you don’t reply within a minute, I’ll tell Tobias that you don’t want to take it.]
Wilson couldn’t wait for her to accept the mission.
He secretly counted the seconds in his mind, and as it was almost a minute, Kaia replied.
[Accept]
Seeing this, Wilson curled his lips. “Oh–this rival is a bit difficult to deal with!”
At the same time, Tobias also received a reply from the SR Alliance.
Finally, they agreed to meet in a week.
The reason for this timeframe was that Kaia still needed to prepare some medicine, and the Pioneer Retreat final competition this week was about to begin. She needed to recharge her
batteries to win this time.
“Upward Entertainment, Fowler family, Gideon, Vulture…” Kaia counted.

The weekend finally arrived.

Kaia had just changed into her racing suit when Tobias blocked her at the entrance of the villa.
“You can’t go.” Tobias’s face was so dark that it almost blended in with the night outside.
Russell stood by, munching on metaphorical popcorn–caught between secondhand embarrassment and genuine awe–as it dawned on him: Kaia was his goddess all along!
