“Enoch.. Enoch Ferdinand rubbed his eyes in disbelief, his voice quivering
His body went limp and he slumped into the chair.
“Enoch‘”
“It’s Mr. Whitel
The reporters rouldn’t believe that Enoch had actually appeared!
Enoch had vanished from the public for over a decade, and yet here he was, as sprightly and sage like as ever!
Many were moved to tears at the sight of him on the live feed.
In the past, from the elite to the common folk, countless people had been graced by Enoch’s benevolence, his miraculous medical skills and his unparalleled virtues.
He was a national beloved physician.
Reporters swarmed around him, eager to get the scoop.
Gwendolyn snapped her eyes to the familiar old man.
They were saying that Mr. White was Enoch White?
Mr. White’s full name was Nock White. And Enoch sounded familiar with Nock..
It was utterly confounding.
She glanced at Howard for confirmation, and he nodded.
Gwendolyn reeled her mind. Howard had known all along, that was why he was so confident he could clear her name. Those certificates that had been produced were most likely authentic.
That was the secret between him and Mr. White.
Enoch addressed the crowd, “Gwendolyn is my apprentice and these certificates are genuine. I have never resigned as the honorary president of the Health Association, and the seals on these documents are legitimate. I’ve trained her incognito for over a decade. Fortunately, I had the foresight to prepare these credentials for her, leaving a contingency. I never expected someone would use this against her. Lets see who dares to accuse her of practicing without a license now!” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
He picked up the certificates and flipped to the last page, where “Enoch was written on the bottom right comer.
Gwendolyn had eamed her medical qualifications through an apprenticeship with none other than the renowned Enoch.
The room fell silent. So did the live chat.
What a twist! It seemed that even Gwendolyn was unaware of her master’s prestigious identity.
Enoch’s voice boomed with authority. “Despite her youth, she is exceptionally talented and diligent. She is more
more than ready to practice
on her own!
People were naturally skeptical of a young woman’s capabilities, but this was Enoch’s testimony.
Enoch’s voice resonated like a great bell as he turned to Howard and said, “Howard, how long do you intend to keep
this secret?”
A slight smile played on Howard’s lips. He slowly stood up and walked beside Enoch, “I can hide it no longer” he said calmly,
Howard was standing!
Eyes transfixed on his legs, he said, “My legs were healed by Gwendolyn.”
Everyone was stunned to numbness.
My God! This was a miracle.
“Mr. Chadwick… can really walk?”
“I had no idea Gwendolyn’s medical skills, were so advanced”
“So there are prodigies in this world. Isn’t Bayridge Hospital too modest a place for her skills?”
“She is Enoch’s apprentice, the living legacy of a national physician!”
Valor, who had been standing on the stage, was bursting with impatience.
He couldn’t help but boast, “My piness was also cured by Gwendolyn! You’ve all heard the rumors, haven’t you? Yours truly, back in the saddle, the toast of the town.”
Valor was oddly proud.

But no one mocked him and they only felt envy
Gwendolyn was truly worthy of being Enoch’s apprentice.
Velor turned to Ferdinand and demanded, “Hey Mr. Ferdinand, don’t you think you owe Gwendolyn an apology? You’ve been badmouthing her non–stop, anyone would think you’ve got a bone to pick with her
Ferdinand tumed various shades, his teeth clenched as he said, “I’m sorry, I was mistaken.”
“A simple sony is useless. What about the announcements you made?” Valor was relentless.
With humiliation, Ferdinand said, “I will take them down.”
After uttering those words, he left the conference hall in a flustered exit
It was as if another second spent there would have him nailed to a pillar of shame, to be whipped over and over
The live chat erupted with messages.
“Sorry, Gwendolyn.”
“So sorry.”
“We misjudged you.”
On the internet, a real–time trending topic emerged. “The whole world owes Gwendolyn an apology.”
