Miracle Doctor Daddy

Lachlan smiled and shook his head, saying nothing. “No, I understand. Why would I look down on you?” Having experienced the ups and downs of life, he had long since become indifferent to such things. He could fully understand Allison’s family’s reaction.

“Well then, let me give you back the money,” Allison said.

Since Lachlan had already said that her mother’s heart disease was completely cured, Allison now believed him almost completely.

“Don’t worry about it for now. You can use it first. You always live with your parents and brother; that’s not ideal. Use this money to buy a house if you want,” Lachlan waved his hand.

If he ever had the chance to repay the school beauty who was beautiful and kind-hearted and who had helped him so much in the past, Lachlan wouldn’t mind doing so as much as possible.

Hearing this, Allison bit her lip teasingly and asked, “Why? Do you want to keep me?”

“Uh… no! That’s not what I meant! Just consider it a loan from me; take your time paying it back…” Lachlan broke out in a sweat as he quickly explained himself lest Allison misunderstand him having some improper thoughts towards her.

However, when she heard this remark from Lachlan, she just went “Oh” with an aggrieved expression on her face instead of being angry or anything else like that at all.

She could tell that compared with those people who pursued her beauty or coveted her body, Lachlan didn’t really have any ulterior motives towards herself at all…

But strangely enough… the more she thought about this fact… the more uncomfortable she felt inside!

She’d rather have someone like him actually harbor some improper thoughts towards herself instead!

After all… if necessary… she could just give herself up to him even if he got married – becoming his mistress or something along those lines…

Anyway…she already liked him quite a lot anyway…This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

However…Lachlan did not seem interested in taking advantage of their relationship in any way whatsoever…

“Lachlan, how should I repay your kindness?” Allison wondered silently inside her own head after seeing Lachlan off while watching his car disappear into the night before finally going upstairs feeling somewhat complicated emotionally speaking…

The Lowe family mansion!

“Cough cough cough…cough!”

Victoria lay in bed coughing violently again.

Her face was covered with an unhealthy flush!

“How are you doing Madam?”

The servant next to her saw what happened and came over holding a phlegm bowl nervously asking Victoria how she was feeling right now.

After coughing up some bloody phlegm, Victoria took a moment to catch her breath. She looked weak and frail, with an unhealthy flush on her face during severe coughing fits and a generally dull complexion otherwise. It was as if death lingered around her.

“Mom, how are you feeling?”

Just then, Romeo’s strong voice rang out as he walked in from outside with a concerned look on his face. However, there was also a hint of coldness in his eyes.

“Romeo…”

Victoria weakly called out to her son.

“Mom… what’s going on? Your health is deteriorating day by day!”

“What… what is happening?”

Romeo wiped away tears and gritted his teeth as he spoke, “It’s all because of my older brother and that Willis guy! They not only made you sick but also drove Dale Hall away! And now that Willis guy has come to treat you – he might even kill you!”

He had only come to “visit” Victoria tonight so he didn’t know that Lachlan hadn’t visited at all these past few days. He kept blaming Lachlan for making their mother this way while slandering him behind his back.

Victoria gave Romeo a glance with deep-seated gloominess in her eyes but didn’t tell him the truth about Lachlan not coming over at all.

“Romeo, I feel like I’m running out of time…” Victoria said weakly.

“No Mom! You can’t go yet! You’ll live long enough for sure!”

Romeo quickly reassured her before turning sad again, “Mom, please take care of yourself! If something happens to you, then what will happen to our family? Without someone leading us, we’ll be lost.”

As he said this, Romeo stole another glance at Victoria who had yet to choose the next head of the family despite being old already.

The next morning Emerson came over early to Emerald Green Estates where Lachlan was staying so they could discuss getting more Nourishing Essence Pills.

In the living room, Lachlan sat eating breakfast with Nora while casually asking, “Emerson, did we sell out all our Nourishing Essence Pills?”

Emerson nodded, “Yes, they sold out! Haha, it was so easy to sell them.”

“Oh? 100, 000 dollars per pill and they still sold out?” Lachlan asked calmly as he took a sip of his porridge.

Last night he had heard from Dillon that Emerson had held an auction specifically for the Nourishing Essence Pill. The prices seemed outrageous.

To be honest, Lachlan didn’t completely trust Emerson yet, so he was testing him.

“100, 000? Hahaha, Mr. Willis you don’t know. I held an auction last night and several pills were sold for over 1. 5 million! The effect of these Nourishing Essence Pills seems to have won over those wealthy people. Now we have something that is priceless!”

Emerson laughed excitedly.

Seeing his reaction, Lachlan nodded in satisfaction; it seemed like this guy could be trusted after all.

“Here are one hundred Nourishing Essence Pills for you to take! Oh and you can keep twenty percent of the money from selling them as payment for your services,” Lachlan said as he pulled out a leather box.

Upon hearing this offer, Emerson quickly shook his head, “Mr. Willis, helping you is my duty; how could I accept payment?”

As he spoke these words with a grin on his face, his eyes lit up, “Mr. Willis, if you want to reward me, then why not… take me on as your apprentice and teach me some skills?”

Hearing this proposal made by Emerson caused Lachlan to smile but this time he didn’t refuse him outrightly.

He picked up a handwritten booklet from beside him called “Tiger Subduing Art” which was a cultivation technique that existed in Lachlan’s memory just like the “Fierce Phoenix Heart Sutra” which was given to Reeva earlier; both techniques were of similar quality.

After testing Emerson’s reliability and finding him trustworthy enough, Lachlan naturally did not mind cultivating someone who could be considered part of their “black glove team”.

“Take it with you and practice it yourself since Transmutation Force experts like yourself should have no problem practicing it! Oh yeah, and regarding the compensation I mentioned earlier, you should take what belongs rightfully yours. You can use this money too, to cultivate reliable people who can help us get things done.” Lachlan instructed.

As Lachlan’s power and social circle grew, he realized that some things were beyond his capabilities to handle alone. For instance, his parents’ disappearance remained a mystery despite his best efforts to investigate. It was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

If he had his own influence or even a network of intelligence, perhaps he could uncover some clues. Thus, the idea of establishing his own power came to mind.
