Chapter 11 What kind of thing are you?
Next, Rowan recounted in detail what had happened that morning. As a martial arts practitioner, Rowan had some knowledge of acupoints, so he was able to describe clearly how Lachlan had stimulated the old man’s acupoints.
After listening to the story, Clifford’s face was filled with amazement. “Incredible! Who is this genius doctor from an extraordinary family? To be able to use this method to revive his heart… no wonder Mr. Ward recovered after his illness.”
Everyone present was stunned by Clifford’s words.
“Dr. Bailey,” said Erik’s wife, Gabriela Ward, eagerly, “since Rowan has told you how it was done, can’t you do it too?”
Henry also looked excited and said, “Yes! Yes! Dr. Bailey, follow that young man’s method!”
However, Clifford shook his head and replied, “I can’t do it. It’s far from simple. The order of massage is important and each acupoint stimulation affects the next one like a relay race. If any link goes wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable!
“Moreover,” he continued,” I cannot master the strength needed for massaging.”
“Unless that young man personally intervenes, no one can replicate it!”
“Stunning, truly stunning!” Clifford exclaimed nervously.
Watching this scene unfold, both Erik and Gabriela as well as Henry couldn’t help but exchange a glance.
Clifford was already a prominent figure in the field of traditional medicine and had been specially invited by the Ward family from Iylonio city to treat Erik’s illness.
Such an accomplished healer actually held such high regard for the young man who had helped earlier that morning. Was his emergency technique really that impressive?Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“By the way, did you get that young man’s contact information? What’s his name?” After muttering to himself for a while, Clifford suddenly remembered to ask with hopeful eyes.
“Well… I gave him my business card at the time so he could reach out if needed but he didn’t take it,” Henry replied.
“He didn’t take it?” Hearing this response, Clifford looked at Henry strangely before shaking his head in disbelief.
Henry felt embarrassed by Clifford’s expression and felt like he was being treated like an idiot. And unfortunately for him, he was right!
At this moment, Clifford found the young master Henry quite amusing.
“Someone with such exceptional medical skills would surely have people seeking their help. Who do you think you are?” Clifford thought to himself.
Although the Ward family had some influence in Edoland, it was not much compared to other states and even the whole country. However, with the divine doctor’s medical skills, even Iylonio’s prominent families would treat him as an honored guest!
What difference did it make to have one more life when they could befriend such a divine doctor?
Henry dared say that that young man didn’t know how to appreciate good things? That was ridiculous!
“Henry, be more low-key from now on. There are many experts in this world; learn to be humble when dealing with others!” Erik scolded his grandson in a low voice.
He regretted his actions at that time. Although he had been polite to the young man back then, it was not enough!
If only he had been more sincere and humble at that time, he could have extended his lifespan by a few years.
No one truly valued their life unless they were faced with death.
As long as Erik was alive and well-connected, the Ward family could continue its glory for generations to come.
If he was fallen, the Ward family will definitely decline!
“Yes, Grandfather, I remember.”
“Grandfather, you can rest assured that as long as this divine doctor is still in Edoland, I will definitely find him.”
Henry’s face became serious as he nodded earnestly and patted his chest.
Although he didn’t even know Lachlan’s name, with his power as a young master of the Ward family, Henry was confident that he could find this person.
At worst, it would just take more time.
…
Gold Coast Club, the top secret casino.
“Ms. Lowe!”
“Ms. Lowe!”
Outside a lounge belonging to Mason alone, Mason’s subordinates respectfully called out to Miranda.
They knew Miranda and knew that Mason loved and feared her at the same time.
It was the kind of fear a younger brother had for his older sister but also showed deep sibling affection.
Therefore, these tough guys from Mason’s gang on the streets wouldn’t dare offend Miranda even if they angered their boss.
“Sis! Why are you here?”
“Both of you, get out!” Mason, who had been flirting with two beautiful women, instinctively stood up and ushered them out when Miranda walked in with Lachlan on her arm.
The next second, he was taken aback to see his own sister cozying up to a man. “Sis, who’s this guy?” he asked.
“This is your brother-in-law! Lachlan!” Miranda introduced him.
Mason sneered at the name. Another tool for his sister?
He never took these fake “brothers-in-law” seriously.
“Why bother introducing him?” he said dismissively.
But then Miranda’s expression turned cold as she rebuked him sharply. “Call him by his name!”
Mason was taken aback and pointed at Lachlan. “Sis, he’s just a phony brother-in-law and tool man. Why bother?”
How could he call someone like that his brother-in-law? And why did she suddenly want him to call this puppet by name?
He couldn’t help but wonder – in all the years before this one – why had she never made such a request?
“What do you mean ‘tool man’? I just got married to your brother-in-law this afternoon! He’s the man I truly love!” Miranda exclaimed, looking at Lachlan with affection in her eyes. “Lachlan, don’t be angry. Mason doesn’t know any better.”
“It’s okay. He’s your little brother and my little brother too. How could I be mad at my own little brother?” Lachlan said, wrapping his arms around Miranda’s waist.
Watching this scene unfold, Mason smirked and his eyes flickered for a moment before he let out a cold snort.
“Sis, stop messing around! I don’t believe you really fell in love with this guy. He’s just another gigolo you’re using to disgust Isa again, right? The other two guys are either dead or useless now so you don’t want anything bad to happen to him and that’s why you’re pretending like it’s real this time and making me protect him?”
It had to be said that Mason knew his sister very well.
Because he knew her so well, he didn’t believe her at all.
What kind of person was his older sister? How could she easily favor a man?
Speaking of this, Mason pointed at Lachlan and scolded without any politeness, “Who’s your little brother? What are you even?”
“Take your hand off my sister, or I’ll chop it off!”
