"Mr. Ludden, Mrs. Ludden Senior has been off her medication for six days. Her leg condition is getting worse, but she refuses treatment and medication," Zaid explained.
As the Ludden family's appointed doctor for over ten years, he knew Mary's rheumatoid arthritis very well.
Mary couldn't stop taking her medication. If she did, her leg condition would worsen.
Not long ago, her legs had shown significant improvement under Camille's care. However, six days ago, she suddenly believed someone else's advice and stopped Camille's treatment, discontinuing the medication on her own.
The moment she went off the medication, her condition deteriorated rapidly. If this continued, she would lose her legs as they would require an amputation.

Being a few years older than Andrew and the current head of the Ludden family, Ralph's presence was more authoritative and intimidating. His serious demeanor caused the surrounding atmosphere to grow tense.
Christopher remained silent as he feared Hera would be implicated. However, just because he remained silent didn't mean everyone else would.
Jane said, "It's that girl the Everett family brought back from the mountains. Andrew even brought her hone time, wanting her to treat Mary, but I stopped him. I didn't expect her to be so persistent. She treated Mary without permission and even persuaded her to stop taking her medication." She then added, "Mary is really out of her mind. Not only does she believe that girl's words, but she also wants to bring her into the Ludden family. I have no idea who's been brainwashing her." "Jane, what do you mean by that?" Andrew's wife, Alice York, asked unhappily.
She liked Hera very much, and both she and Andrew hoped Hera would be their future daughter-in-law. It was due to her bringing up the idea of a marriage alliance to Mary that Mary sought out Hera and got in touch with her.
She hadn't anticipated things would turn out like this. However, Jane's remarks clearly sought to put all the blon Andrew and her.
"I mean exactly what I said," Jane replied.
"Jane, Hera isn't as worthless as you claim. She does know medicine!" Andrew said with a serious expression.
Jane retorted, "Is she a registered doctor? If she really knew medicine, how could Mary's legs be in this condition? And don't forget. The last tyou brought her here, she ran off in a panic at the mention of Dr. Shadow." Hearing that, Andrew was rendered speechless.
He didn't know if Hera was a registered doctor. However, he had witnessed her administering acupuncture, and Hera's grandmother was a highly respected doctor in the mountains, though he couldn't confirm these details. "She's incompetent, yet she encouraged Mary to stop her medication and drove Dr. Shadow away. Why did you bring such a girl to Mary? If something happens to Mary, can you bear the consequences?" Jane berated.
"Grandma is not without discernment. She stopped her medication because she chose to trust Hera. Hera also gave Grandma smedicine, and she can start taking it tomorrow. Whether it works or not, we'll find out tomorrow," Christopher couldn't help but speak up. He wouldn't tolerate anyone defaming his idol.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door swung open, and Pansy emerged with a worried expression. "This is bad. Mrs. Ludden Senior has fainted from the pain." Upon hearing that, everyone's hearts sank.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJane seized the opportunity she had been waiting for. Raising her voice, she exclaimed, "Now that she has fainted, do you still want her to wait until tomorrow?" Christopher was taken aback, and his heart raced. He believed in Hera, but with Mary's life at stake, he hesitated.
Ralph said sternly, "Enough! No more arguing. Zaid, go check on my mom immediately."
"Yes," Zaid responded. As he was about to enter Mary's room, Christopher stopped him. "Let's wait until tomorrow, the seventh day, when Grandma can take the medicine," Christopher said, standing at the door. He had faith in Hera's ability to cure Mary.
"Mr. Christopher, Mrs. Ludden Senior's legs can't wait any longer. If we don't treat her now, she'll lose her legs, and it could even threaten her life," Zaid urged.
