Chapter 843 Disappointment

• Out of curiosity, Arielle asked, “Can an outsider join the Mills' heir selection?”
• A conflicted look crossed Cornelius' face. “In the past, such a thing would be implausible. However, there hasn't been an ancient Chanaean doctor in our family after my siblings and I were born. In my father's eyes, it is much more crucial to maintain the prestige of ancient Chanaean medicine. In the future, the Mills wouldn't be the only ones suffering. Ancient Chanaean medicine will fade into obscurity. Right now, most people would prefer to seek out modern medicine instead of traditional Chanaean medicine.”
• “If an outsider is allowed to compete for this position, the family's secrets will be passed to that person too. Most traditional Chanaean medicine has a strong emphasis on secrecy when it comes to prescriptions. Is your father really willing to hand it over to an outsider?” Arielle asked.
