Unused to the smell, Fred covered his nose and gagged.
Dominic glanced over his shoulder and then turned back to his brewing.
“Hi, sir. It’s been quite a challenge to meet with you,” Fred said as he went to take a seat across from the physician.
Before he could sit down, Dominic said, “No!” Startled, Fred froze.
He looked at Dominic, then to the chair.
“What’s the matter?” “That chair is about to fall apart.
Use that one instead.” Dominic pointed at a small stool with the bellows in his hand.
Fred was speechless when he saw the stool.
It was meant for children.
Thinking he would look funny hunched over, he remained on his feet.
“It’s okay, I’ll stand.
He then continued, “I don’t like beating around the bush.
You know who I am, and I’m here to seek your help to save someone.” Dominic shook his head.
“Save someone? I’ve not done such a thing for many years.” “But this time is different.
I know you’re a hermit, but aren’t you going to ask me anything?” Fred asked, “Are you sure you don’t want to save a life?” As if he had not heard Fred, Dominic continued tending the fire.
“Don’t you want to save your student?” Fred took a step toward Dominic and smiled meaningfully.
Dominic looked up at him and squeezed the bellows at the flames, sending a plume of smoke that choked the duke.
Fred scrambled backward as he started coughing.
“I’ve no idea what you’re talking about.” Shooting Fred a cold glance, Dominic continued to fan the fire.
Coughing so hard that tears welled up in his eyes, Fred took out a handkerchief to cover his nose and mouth.
“I told you that I don’t like to beat around the bush, so you can cut the act.
Lily’s your student, right? She’s currently in a coma and is dying.
Aren’t you going to do something about it?” he asked, staring at the old man.
Fred had just learned about Dominic and Lily’s relationship. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Although Lily was skilled in herbal medicine, he never expected her to be the miracle doctor’s student.
If he had not discovered that she and Alexander had frequented this place recently, he would never have guessed it.
His first thought was that Alexander was Dominic’s student, but the man did not appear to have much knowledge of herbal medicine, and he had also nearly died from the pandemic disease.
Therefore, Lily had to be Dominic’s student, so she was so good in this field.
Fred stared at Dominic, confident the old man would save his beloved student.
According to the rumors, Dominic’s last student was his favorite, so it was unlikely that he would stand by and do nothing.
