Chapter 1277

The First

Abraham shook his head. “I asked many experts, but they said nothing could be done. Even the foreign
medical experts had their hands tied,” he said while exhaling sharply.

I have never done anything heinous before. In fact, I have always treated my friends and family with
sincerity and kindness. I’m a good man, but why did God take my daughter’s legs away from her?
She’s only in her twenties and has a long life ahead of her.

Cornelius hurriedly changed the topic as his father seemed upset. “Dad, should we tend to the
assassin’s wounds?”

Arielle had stabbed him so viciously that the man would be a cripple even if he managed to recover.

Fortunately for him, his wounds were superficial as Arielle had avoided all the vital parts.

If everything went well, he could recover without any complications.

But of course, that would only be possible if he was given a chance to recover.

Abraham nodded. “Tend to his wounds so there won’t be any infection. Since Ms. Moore didn’t kill him,
it’s apparent that she wants him alive.”

After the discussion about the assassin ended, they chatted about the selection of the head. Including
Queenie, there were thirty-eight contestants vying for the position. The results of the rest were out, and
Arielle was the winner for gathering the most herbs as well as herbs with the highest value. Abraham
then told Cornelius to text all the contestants to inform them of the results.

Soon, Arielle received the text notifying her of the results. Her lips curved up when she read that she
received the highest score for that day.



When the rest received the text, they were shocked to realize that Arielle had the highest score.

Who would’ve thought that Arielle is actually skilled in medicine? That sounds about right. If she
weren’t trained in medicine, she wouldn’t be here for the selection. Since she’s qualified to be here, she
must be very skillful.

Nevertheless, the contestants felt stressed that Arielle was ranked first, especially those who were her
peers. As experts in the medical industry, they assumed it would be pretty easy to get selected as the
head of the Mill family. Thus, they never expected to be surpassed on the first day itself.

“Viggo, you know how important the medical manuscripts are to our family. Therefore, you must get
selected as the head. You’re two points short of her score and ranked second this time. However, the
person ranked third is only one point away from you, so you mustn’t let your guard down.”

Viggo Laursen was listening to his father’s instructions with a solemn expression.

“Father, I got it. I’ll do my best!”

After hanging up, Viggo started searching for Arielle’s name online.

However, the search results were mostly about her educational background and her current identity.
There was a brief mention of her medical skills, but that was about it. He couldn’t find any useful
information about her.

His gaze turned dark. It looks like she’s a worthy opponent. I can’t let my guard down.

Queenie had also received the text. Realizing that Arielle had the highest score and was placed first
while she barely got into the top ten, she nearly suffocated in her fury and tossed her phone to the bed.

“What’s wrong?” Donovan asked.



“It’s that b*tch, Arielle! I can’t believe she got the highest score!” Queenie huffed. “She must’ve been
really lucky to get the most herbs and also the most valuable ones.”

Donovan was surprised to learn that, too. I have to admit that Arielle is a capable woman. Not only is
she the CEO of Sann Group and the owner of Maureen’s Kitchen, but she’s also San in person. I
wonder what she isn’t capable of?
