Chapter 457 Granddaughter
“Let me put it simply.”
Professor Turner stepped out of the car. Despite his small stature, he looked up at Jeffrey with an unwavering demeanor.
“I saved your life once. But back then, it was Melanie’s grandfather who saved mine. I inherited many of my medical insights
from him. Melanie is closer to me than my own granddaughter. So,
tell me, who should I see, her or you?”
Jeffrey was once again taken aback. When he thought about it, there would be no Professor Turner without Melanie’s
grandfather. His fatal accident would have undoubtedly been the end of
him.
“Professor Turner, today is the first time I’ve learned that my grandfather also saved you!” Melanie exclaimed in surprise.
“That’s ancient history.”
Professor Turner waved his hand, reminiscing about his long–departed old companion with a touch of sadness. “Back then, I
discovered a medical treatment in modern medicine that could tackle complex diseases. I insisted on delving into its research,
but your grandfather didn’t
approve.
“From that day on, we went our separate ways. He never let me see him before he passed away....
It seems he still blamed me...”
“I think you’ve misunderstood,” Melanie said. “My grandfather fell ill suddenly and passed away quickly. None of us had the
chance to see him one last time. But I remember he once said you were intelligent and had a remarkable understanding.
“He believed that even if you switched paths to study modern medicine halfway, you would surely achieve something. And look,
he was right.”
“When did he say that? Did he really say that?” Professor Turner asked with interest.
“He really did. I wouldn’t lie to you, Professor Turner. My grandfather used to say it while teaching
me about herbs in the courtyard.”
Professor Turner’s eyes shimmered briefly, revealing his deep respect for Melanie’s grandfather.
After years of striving, the acknowledgment of Melanie’s grandfather was still what he yearned for

Professor Turner lowered his head and waved his hand with a smile. He changed the subject and said, “Oh, I’ve told you that
we’re in a different era now, right? Don’t call me ‘Professor Turner” anymore. I am now internationally renowned as Dr. TI”
“Okay, Dr. T.” Melanie couldn’t help but chuckle.
She glanced at the gates of the York family and said, “Since you’ve come to treat Yelena, why hesitate at the doorstep? Is there
a possibility for you to sit down and talk about what happened between you and the York family In the past?”
“That’s impossible!” Professor Turner refused without a second thought.
“I can treat Yelena for your sake, but only if you bring her to my turf. I swore I wouldn’t set foot in the York estate again!”
“Alright, I’ll go in and explain the situation. Wait here for me, okay?”
Seeing Professor Turner’s determination, Melanie could only agree reluctantly. She turned to Jeffrey and said, “It’s been a while
since you’ve seen him. You two can catch up while waiting
here for me. I’ll be back soon.”
“Take care of yourself,” Jeffrey nodded.
As Melanie walked away, Professor Turner nudged Jeffrey with his elbow and asked in a low voice. “The woman who caused
you to change... Was it my granddaughter? Was it also her who underwent genetic engineering?”
Jeffrey nodded.
“Perfect. Later, we’ll go to my research base and conduct a test on her to verify the truth,” Professor Turner said confidently.
“She’s pregnant. Will this type of examination harm her?” Jeffrey asked cautiously, showing his true concerns in front of
Professor Turner.
“She’s pregnant?” Professor Turner raised his eyebrows, staring at Jeffrey.
“Yes.”
“Yours?” Professor Turner fixed his gaze on him.
Jeffrey pursed his lips tightly. “Who else’s?”
Professor Turner continued to stare at him, then he sneered.
“What’s wrong with you?” Jeffrey was puzzled.
