Chapter 1292
Axel summed it up bluntly:
"Sabrina's been spreading rumors at the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association, saying your sister-in-law's got no
ethics and doesn't deserve to be a doctor. She's trying to shut down her career in medicine before it even
starts."
Tarquin's face darkened at that.
The truth was, Elysia had never planned to climb the medical career ladder anyway—her real passion was child
psychology.
Sabrina's hostility? Pure jealousy.
Elysia had it all: a good family background, a great marriage, and to top it off, sharper medical skills than
Sabrina. If Elysia ever decided to stay in the medical field, Sabrina wouldn't stand a chance.
Sure, Sabrina was Victor's granddaughter. But that didn't mean she could run the whole show. If there was
someone more talented in her generation-and there was-she'd get pushed aside like anyone else.
And as for making it to the top of the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association? That was pretty much a pipe dream
for Sabrina.
That's why she was so desperate to knock Elysia out of the running.
She was jealous, and she was scared.
But honestly, did she really think just being Victor's granddaughter gave her the right to walk all over Elysia?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSpreading lies about Elysia? The nerve! Even Victor himself would show Elysia sserious respect if he ever
met her.
Elysia had spent five years learning from Tracey-not officially as a student, but Tracey personally mentored her.
Compared to that, what did the Stevensons even have?
If Sabrina would just chill out, Elysia would stay focused on child psychology and never be her competition. But if
Sabrina kept pushing, Elysia might just get mad enough to re-enter medicine-and then the Stevensons would
really have something to cry about.
Tarquin's voice was icy as he gave his orders. "Have Benjamin go talk to Victor in person. Tell him this comes
straight from me."
"I'm not exactly known for my patience, especially when it comes to my wife. If he can't keep his own
granddaughter in line, I'll be happy to do it for him."
Did Sabrina really think she could mess with his wife? Not a chance.
Meanwhile, across town, gentle smoke curled up from the chimney of the little cabin.
Elysia had no id
idea about the
brewing back in Jindale City. She
didn't know that simply refusing to join Sabrina's virus research had turned Sabrina against her completely-or
that Sabrina was now making her the target of every nasty rumor she could dream up.
Right now, Elysia was in the kitchen making breakfast, in a perfectly good mood.
She knew her grandma was off
tending the herb garden, and Evan had gone into the woods with Tarquin and Bernard. She wasn't worried-they
could handle themselves.
In the kitchen, Baby and Walter were keeping her company.
Elliot and Elijah, as soon as they woke up, had rushed off to Howard's room to
tinker with his latest homemade security system.
Emmett was with Quincy, the two of them hunched over sproject, with
Quincy's excited exclamations floating down the hall:
"Yes! That's it! Emmett, you've really got a knack for this!"
Back in the kitchen, Walter was doting on Baby as usual.
"Hey, Baby, you wanna see some
fireworks tonight?" Walter asked

tiptoeing around, trying not to say anything that might scare her.
Baby's big blue eyes widened-half excited, half nervous.
"Will they be loud?"
"Of course they will," Walter said, chuckling.
"Baby's scared of loud noises," she said, her voice soft and sweet.
Walter crouched down to her level. "You don't like loud bangs, huh?”
She shook her head, pouting a little.
