LittleNovelChapter 1296
When Elysia cback with her basket full of wild herbs, she spotted Tracey and Baby, the oldest and the
youngest of the family, making a pinky promise on the
porch.
Grinning, Elysia called out, "Hey, what are you two up to?"
Baby's eyes sparkled with excitement. “Mommy, Mommy! I'm gonna be a nurse when | grow up!"
"Oh yeah?" Elysia raised an eyebrow, amused.
"Great-grandma says she's gonna teacheverything she knows!" Baby
announced, bouncing on her toes.
Tracey chuckled, her eyes crinkling with delight. "Elysia, | think this little one has a real future in medicine!"
"She's just a kid, and yet she can already tell the difference between all these herbs! She's a natural. I'd love to
start teaching her smedical basics, if you're okay with it?"
Elysia didn't hesitate. "Of course! Baby, do you want to learn?"
As far as Elysia was concerned, you could never know too much. It was always a good idea to pick up more skills
if you had the chance. She wasn't a doctor herself, but she'd learned first aid and smedical know-how from
her own grandmother. It had cin handy more times than she could count.
If she hadn't understood both psychology and sbasic medicine, she probably never would've been able to
help Elijah. And Tarquin's insomnia-if she'd known nothing, she'd have just been left worrying and helpless. But
now, she could mix up treatments, try a little acupuncture, adjust his remedies on the fly—and not panic when
things changed.
Besides, medicine wasn't just any skill. It was something that could help everyone, everywhere. Learning

So if Baby was interested, Elysia was all in. And if not? That was fine too. She'd never force her daughter to do
something she didn't love. After all, passion was the best teacher-when you enjoyed something, you learned
faster and had more fun.
Baby hopped around in pure joy. "I love it, | love it! When | beca nurse, | can take care of Daddy, Mommy,
and my brothers, too!"
Elysia ruffled her daughter's hair, her heart melting. "If you love it, that's all that matters. Mommy's got your
back!"
Then she turned to Tracey with a grateful smile. "Thank you, Grandma. | know it's a lot of work."
"Oh, it's no trouble at all!" Tracey beamed. "I'd be thrilled to take Baby on as my apprentice!"
Elysia laughed. "Well then, Baby will have to serve you a good old English afternoon tea as thanks!"
Tracey nodded, pleased as punch.
Elysia knew her grandmother was an amazing healer, but she had no clue about Tracey's real reputation To her,
it was just about Baby
learning a useful skill. She ne
imagined that, if the world found out Tracey had taken on a new apprentice, it would cause a stir in every
medical school from Harvard to Johns Hopkins.
By the tthe three of them finished gathering herbs and made it back to their cozy cabin, it was almost
lunchtime.
Tarquin was home. When he saw them coming up the path, he hurried out to greet them, giving Tracey a
respectful nod first.
He took the heavy basket off Elysia's shoulders. "Was it tough out there?"
Elysia shook her head and flashed him a grin. "It was nothing! I'm not sdelicate flower, you know. When did
you get back?"
Before Tarquin could answer, Baby piped up, "Daddy, Mommy was amazing! She picked most of these herbs
herself!"
Tarquin grinned at his daughter, balancing the basket as he scooped Baby into his arms. "Are you tired,
sweetheart?"

Nope! Oh, Daddy, guess what?

Tarquin blinked. "She's teaching you medicine?”
"Uh-huh! We even made a pinky promise about it!"
