Chapter 203: Chapter 203: The Collaboration Has Changed
"I’m just curious, who is your mentor?"
Being able to visually determine the quality of a spot is something ordinary doctors cannot compare with.
Therefore, July Quinn must have a very skilled mentor behind her.
"My mentor’s surname is Monroe."
Actually, the whereabouts of The Monroe Family have always been top secret.
Under normal circumstances, July Quinn would not disclose information about them.
However, considering that William Owens probably wouldn’t last long, July Quinn simply told him.
Just as she finished speaking, William Owens became extraordinarily excited, "Is it Mason Monroe?"
"Yes." July Quinn nodded slightly.
In the past, when Monroe saw that she was clever and smart, he coaxed and tricked her into learning medicine with him and told her that The Monroe Family’s reputation in Aphelion was very high.
All it would take is a little inquiry to know about it.
Back then, July Quinn thought Monroe was just boasting.
Now, seeing William Owens’ excited demeanor, it seems Monroe wasn’t misleading her.
"Is the old man still there? Where is he, can you take me to see him? Since I started practicing medicine, I’ve been determined to learn from him, but at that time, Mason Monroe fell victim to conspiracies and had to move his family out of Esteria."
The Monroe Family’s exquisite medical skills have always been legendary in Esteria.
But when it comes to treating patients, The Monroe Family never made financial gain a priority; they emphasized fate and character.
This was also why, when the old man from one of the four major families, The Hale Family, in Esteria fell ill and requested Mason Monroe’s help, Mason Monroe politely declined.
The reason being that the old man from The Hale Family committed all manners of evil for money and power in Esteria.
Yet The Hale Family remained persistent, employing all sorts of threats and bribes.
Even then, Mason Monroe refused to comply.
In the end, The Hale Family chose a path of mutual destruction, severely injuring The Monroe Family, leading directly to the accidental death of Liam Monroe’s parents, and freezing the entire family’s assets.
Mason Monroe, with no other choice, took his young grandson and left Aphelion.
No one knows where they eventually settled.
All these years, William Owens made numerous inquiries but found no leads.
Yet unexpectedly, before his passing, he received this information from July Quinn.
"The old man has already passed away."
Mentioning this, July Quinn seemed to be pulled back into that memory.
Monroe knew his end was near, so he documented all his lifelong medical knowledge in a book and forced July Quinn to finish reading it within two months.
Afterwards, he handed her his usual box of silver needles, declaring her to be the thirteenth-generation successor of The Monroe Family.
As for why he handed The Monroe Family over to her instead of his own grandson, Monroe had this explanation.
"July, you have a greater gift for medicine than Liam Monroe, and with your photographic memory, your skills are naturally better suited to be the successor of The Monroe Family."
"By placing The Monroe Family in your hands, it can truly rid itself of past disgrace and let its medical expertise shine anew."
Overall, Monroe had a knack for persuasion.
And so, July Quinn became the thirteenth-generation successor of their family.
However, up till now, July Quinn still feels like being this thirteenth-generation successor only allows her to assume the posture of an elder when lecturing Liam Monroe, seemingly with no other uses.
"Already passed away?"
William Owens couldn’t hide his disappointment upon hearing the news.
But later, he continued muttering to himself, "No matter, I’ll be going soon too. I should be able to see him and fulfill the regrets of this lifetime."
Seeing William Owens’ poor mental state, July Quinn comforted him with a couple of words before leaving his ward.
Just after stepping out of William Owens’ room, July Quinn received a call from Vivian Lynn.
"July, it seems the cooperation with Esteria TV is about to change."
