Resurrecting the Genius Within by Calypso Rain Novel -
Chapter 279
Chapter 279 A Favour
The air grew silent again. This time for quite a while.
Carl and Chase exchanged glances. Isabelle was just a teenager, and they still found it hard to believe Arlo’s
remark.
“Ms. Jenkins is proficient in both alternative and traditional medicine. I witnessed her perform surgery at Silverwood Hospital, and everyone there was astounded by her skills.” Arlo recalled the scene in the operating room with a sense of awe.
“She’s a genius.”
Arlo’s declaration of genius‘ provided Carl and Chase with a plausible reason to trust her.
There were always people who were more talented in this vast world; moreover, both of them were worldly and experienced.
Even so, they were still stunned.
Just minutes ago, they had thought this highly reputed doctor was an old man with a bad temper. They never expected her to be a teenage girl.
Moreover, she was proficient in both traditional and alternative medicine.
How could she have learned so much in such a short time? It must have taken more than one lifetime to achieve such a skill.
They struggled to process this information.
Isabelle finished examining the X–rays and casually placed them back on the table.
She said, “It can be treated. Although you missed the best time for treatment and can’t fully recover to the state before the injury, you can regain eighty to ninety percent function, enough to return to your unit.”
Her words left everyone in shock.
Eighty to ninety percent recovery?
Such a bold claim made Carl and Chase uneasy. Arlo was completely confident in her remark.
He was happy for Chase and said, “That’s wonderful. I knew Ms. Jenkins could cure you.”
Even though Carl and Chase were sceptical, Isabelle’s assurance that he could return to his unit filled Chase with excitement.
“Are you serious?” His face was flushed with anticipation.
“Of course, but my fee is high,” Isabelle said lightly.
Carl snapped out of his shock and said, “If you can treat him, name your price. We’ll pay whatever you
ask.”
Isabelle shook her head and said, “I don’t need money.”

Chapter 279 A Favour

Isabelle explained, “I need a favour from both of you.”
Carl said, “I don’t follow.”
Isabelle explained, “Both of you have significant positions. A favour from you is worth more than money. I asked Instructor Dittman about your previous unit to see if you were worth the effort.”
Her straightforwardness, though blunt, was reassuring in its honesty.
“I don’t do business at a loss. Treating an arm in exchange for favours from both of you, or two valuable friends, is a good deal for me.”
One was from the Inferno Special Forces, and the other was a general from the military district; having them owe her a favour could be useful in the future. Isabelle wasn’t fond of making friends, but having a few useful and unobtrusive ones wasn’t a bother.
Carl fell silent.
This fee was easy to agree to in one sense, but not in another.
It all depended on what Isabelle wanted in return.
The favour she would ask for had unlimited potential.
Carl said, “May I ask, why would you need us with Mr. George’s support?”
Isabelle replied, “The more friends, the better. Who would mind having more friends?”
Carl said, “I’ve met many people, and you’re the second one to impress me so much.”
The first was the missing decryption genius.
Showing exceptional maturity and composure beyond her years, Isabelle’s abilities and vision were unparalleled among her peers.
Isabelle said, “You can verify my background, Instructor Dittman. You might have doubts about me, but you can trust George.”
Chase was surprised that she had read his thoughts.
Carl said, “I can’t trust you without knowing more about you, but I do trust Mr. George. Consider the fee
settled.
He thought to himself that befriending such a talented person might end up benefiting him more.
Once they agreed, Isabelle began treating Chase.
Watching Isabelle perform needle therapy was a rare spectacle. Arlo and his apprentice observed carefully.

After she placed a few needles on him, Chase broke into a sweat, though it was unclear if it was from paint or something else.
Arlo had treated him many times, but this had never happened before.
Chase realised Arlo had not exaggerated–Isabelle truly had the skills, and his arm might indeed be saved.
With this hope, Chase’s excitement began to show on his face.
More than half an hour later, Isabelle finished the treatment.
Carl asked, “How is it?”
Chase raised his arm, rotated his shoulder, and then nodded heavily. Arlo’s treatments had never achieved. significant relief from the pain that had tormented him for years.
