This is the question of the chapter 9 all' well that ends well
One of Shakespeare’ artfully delineated “strong women” is the daughter of Gerard de Narbon, a renowned physician. When the king falls under the spell of what has been determined an incurable illness, Helena devises the plan to use a prescription left behind by her father to prove this claim of the king’s condition being a lost cause false. Of course, her primary motive is to follow her beloved Bertram who has left her behind to attend to the court upon the news of his majesty’s illness. Much of the romantic tension driving the plot stems from the fact that while nearly everyone else is won over by her winning ways, Bertram remains an illogical holdout.
