All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 493 Treatment

Even though Catherine’s demeanor might come off as arrogant, she had every reason to be. After all,

in the face of the strange illness that had afflicted the royal family, numerous experts and scholars had

been helpless, while Catherine had effortlessly suppressed the disease.

In other words, the entire royal family was now dependent on Catherine. So, her assertiveness was

quite justified.

During the meeting, Catherine had complained about the hardness of the chairs. In response, the old

king immediately ordered a luxurious leather chair. It proved to be exceedingly comfortable when

Catherine tested it.

Seeing the satisfaction on Catherine’s face, the chief attendant finally dared to approach her. He

inquired, “Doctor, may I ask if there’s anything else we should be prepared for?”

Catherine’s mood was upbeat, and she decided to provide the royal family with some additional

services.

“Summon all the infected individuals here. I will administer treatments to them.”

While Catherine hadn’t yet identified the source of the strange illness, her treatments could temporarily

alleviate the crisis the royal family was facing.

The old king was highly satisfied with Catherine’s decision and ordered all the physicians to await her.

Additionally, he arranged for ten servants to attend to Catherine’s needs.

Even the chief attendant stayed, ready to serve her. The chief attendant, with a fawning expression,

spoke to Catherine, ” Doctor, if you have any requests, please don’t hesitate to ask.”

Catherine gently placed her hand on her stomach. The chief attendant, skilled in reading people,

immediately caught the signal. “Doctor, please let me know what you’d like to eat. The chefs can

prepare any dish you desire.”

During lunch, the meal prepared by Branden was quite bland, and Catherine was now feeling hungry.

She casually suggested, “How about a barbecue?”

He had expected Catherine to request something extravagant, but to his surprise, she simply asked for

a barbecue.

Although this was Ravenloth, it was important to note that in recent years, Chritie had developed

significant influence.

All around the world, there were skilled individuals from Chritie, and with them, the culture and cuisine

of Chritie had spread far and wide.

Barbecue, this convenient and delicious cuisine, had received widespread acclaim, and even in

Ravenloth, there were numerous Chritien barbecue restaurants. The chief attendant was delighted to

agree, “Of course, I will make the arrangements immediately.”

Witnessing this scene, Queen Lina was furious.

Catherine had become intolerably arrogant, and the most infuriating part was that there was no way to

punish her.

The king had mentioned Catherine’s mysterious and formidable backing, making it impossible to

challenge her.

More importantly, Catherine was now the only one who could save the royal family.

“If we get rid of her, who will save the royal family?” she thought.



Queen Lina couldn’t bear the scene before her, so she chose to leave.

She pretended not to see anything.

When everyone was far enough away, Withal approached Catherine.

He quietly communicated with her in Chritien, “Catherine, why are we voluntarily helping them clean up

this mess?” he asked.

The royal family’s attitude was terrible, especially Queen Lina’s. Who did she think she was to treat

Catherine like this?

It was exasperating!

Even Mr. Duncan couldn’t stand it anymore, and Withal had never expected that Catherine would

voluntarily offer assistance. Catherine was relaxing in her reclining chair.

She responded to Withal’s query, “You know, Withal, we’re getting paid for this. I’d rather solve it all at

once than be bothered repeatedly by them, calling us to give shots to one person and perform surgery

on another.”

Henry and Prince Levi had fallen ill, and Catherine was confident that the next victim was inevitable.

These people would go to great lengths to summon her to the palace to save their lives.

She preferred to resolve the issue once and for all, avoiding the annoyance of running back and forth

repeatedly.

Hearing Catherine’s explanation, Withal felt there was some truth in her words. Rather than making

multiple trips, she aimed for a comprehensive solution. Withal glanced around to ensure there was no

one nearby.

Finally, he dared to quietly inquire of Catherine, “Catherine, what’s going on with these people from the

royal family? Could it be the former queen’s curse?”

“Hmph!” Catherine sniffed disdainfully, her face full of contempt.

The so-called curse was often the guilt- ridden minds of those who had done wrong. If they didn’t start

with the knowledge that what they were doing was wrong, why should one they about a curse?

The more people were afraid to believe in such superstitions, the more it revealed their guilty

conscience.

“Nonsense, it’s clearly poisoning!”

“Poisoning?” Withal exclaimed in surprise, his eyes wide, looking at Catherine with disbelief.

It wasn’t that he didn’t believe their boss’s judgment, but it just sounded far -fetched. Ravenloth might

be a small country, but it had a thriving economy and considerable wealth.

The royal family controlled ninety percent of the nation’s economy.

While money wasn’t everything, it could achieve things that seemed unimaginable. In such

circumstances, it was hard to believe that the Ravenloth royal family could still be poisoned. What was

even more astonishing was the sheer number of victims.

“Catherine, are you sure?” Withal asked again, still unable to believe it. Catherine nodded slightly. If

she couldn’t be certain before, seeing Prince Levi today had helped her make up her mind.

However, after she suppressed the toxins in Henry’s body the last time, the poisoners became aware.

The poison in Prince Levi’s body had been modified, evident from his recent condition.

However, the changes observed were minimal, and it was highly unlikely for a virus from the natural

world to evolve and change this rapidly.

The only plausible explanation is that someone had poisoned them.

Her reluctance to study medicine stemmed from her aversion to the trouble of saving lives. She had

spent some time with Mr. Theo and had observed numerous sick people coming to him, resorting to

various means to seek his help.

She had found it annoying.

While she hadn’t learned medicine, she was well-versed in various poisons and methods of poisoning.

The ones who poisoned were unlucky indeed, for if they had encountered an ordinary person, their

actions might have gone unnoticed.

Unfortunately for them, they happened to cross paths with her!

The mysterious illness was spreading rapidly among the members of the royal family. When Catherine

first arrived, there had been just over thirty affected individuals. Now, that number has grown to more

than sixty.

When they heard that the king had brought a doctor willing to treat them, all the afflicted royals rushed

to the palace.

Some who had heard about Catherine’s confrontation with Queen Lina were wary of her. However,

there were always a few who, despite her noble status, tried to act tough in front of her.

In the end, Catherine kicked them out, and any attempts to cause trouble were thwarted by the chief

attendant.



“She’s someone the king dares not offend. I advise you to think twice,” the chief attendant warned.

His words immediately brought them to their senses.

After subduing the troublemakers, Catherine began administering treatments one by one.

After treating two patients, she suddenly beckoned to Withal.

She leaned in close to him and whispered instructions for a secret task.

As Withal, with some confusion, grasped the meaning of Catherine’s words, he couldn’t quite

comprehend why she would want to do this.

But he knew there must be a reason behind it.

Without delay, Withal responded. ”

Catherine, I’ll be back quickly.”
