As if he could see Guo Miao’s confusion, Tong Pei explained, “Mr. Jack really cares about his image. Every time I come over, he will tidy up like this.”

Guo Miao nodded and looked at the scenery outside.

The manor was huge, and there were all kinds of beautiful and rare plants. Although it was already autumn in Fog City, there were all kinds of flowers blooming in the garden. Sitting in the car, one could smell the fragrance of flowers from outside.

The fragrance of flowers, the scent of wine, and the sweet smell of pastries in the carriage intertwined, making one feel relaxed and happy.

Guo Miao took a piece of pastry from the plate and put it in her mouth.

It was a traditional snack in Fog City, a soft black tea cake. When chewed it in the mouth, it was sweet but not greasy. If one tasted it carefully, one could even taste the fragrance of roses inside.

The smell of the roses was not from the roses or the rose jam but from the fragrance of the rose petals.

The cooking method of this kind of pastry was very complicated. It would take a long time to create such a rich but not greasy taste.

“These pastries were made by our Fifth Young Madam. Fifth Young Madam comes from a bakery and usually likes to spend time on these pastries,” the housekeeper said.

Guo Miao frowned and pondered. Although it was already modern times, a big family like the Orsola family should value their family background very much. How could they let their young master marry the daughter of a chef?

She raised her head and looked at the housekeeper. When the housekeeper mentioned the Fifth Young Madam, there seemed to be some disdain in her eyes.

The housekeeper seemed to feel that she had not said enough, so she added, “Fifth Young Madam usually has nothing to do, so she has the time to make such complicated snacks.”

The car circled around the manor. It was already four o’clock in the afternoon. The sky in Fog City darkened very early. At this time, the sun had already set in the mountains. Half of the sky was dyed in the sunset, and it was beautiful.

The car stopped in front of a huge ancient castle.

Guo Miao raised her head and looked at the castle. The walls of the castle were black and the roof was peaked. It gave off a creepy feeling.

At this moment, a woman in a long dress walked to the door and looked at the two of them. “You must be Miss Guo Miao and Mr. Tong Pei. My husband is ready. Please come in.”

Tong Pei nodded and pointed at Guo Miao. “This is the doctor I brought from China, Guo Miao.”

Guo Miao nodded at her and sized her up.

This woman was very delicate and pretty. She was wearing a long dress made of the most ordinary linen. When she smelled it carefully, she could smell the faint fragrance of roses.

This woman did not look like a young lady from a noble family, but she had a gentle and elegant temperament.

Guo Miao looked away.

She did not know that the woman was also sizing her up.

Kevin had told her before that a very famous doctor would be coming today. It was said that she had once restored the sight of a blind man.

However, this little girl looked less than eighteen years old. How could she be a famous doctor?

“My name is Catherine.” The woman nodded. “I’m Director Jack’s wife.”

She smiled gently at Guo Miao.

The three of them entered the hall of the castle together.

Although the castle looked old from the outside, the decorations inside were completely different. It gave off a modern vibe.

The furniture was designed exquisitely, and there were all kinds of household appliances inside.

A middle-aged man in a black shirt and black pants was sitting on the sofa in the living room. His sitting posture was very strange. It was as if he was fastened to the sofa with a strap, instead of sitting up like that by himself.

Guo Miao looked at the man, and he looked back at her with a sharp gaze.

“Tong Pei, are you joking with me?” He narrowed his eyes. “So, this is the famous doctor from your country? Are you and Kevin teasing me?”

He raised his hand slightly and pointed at Guo Miao. “You said you were going to bring a doctor over. Who did you bring? Your little lover?”

Tong Pei was just about to explain when he heard Guo Miao slowly say, “The fifth and seventh joints of the spine are fractured, and the nerves are damaged.”

Catherine was stunned.

Jack also frowned.

“This wasn’t a car accident, right, Mr. Jack? You must have lied to Mr. Kevin. Am I right?” Guo Miao looked at Jack and said slowly.

Jack couldn’t see a trace of childishness in her eyes. Although she had a baby face, her eyes were mature and calm. It was not something that a person of her age should have..
