Celine saw that Matilda was adamant that she would not give any money, and started to curse and swear, "Matilda, did you feed your heart to the dogs? He's your brother! Your brother suffered so much for your sake, that both his arms were broken. He just wants a little money from you, so how could you refuse him? You are heartless. I've wasted so many years of my life raising you." As Matilda heard her mother's cursing behind her, her tears constantly fell.Yet, what could she do when they knew nothing and were so unreasonable?After she walked into the elevator, Matilda cursed to herself. It was all Chad's fault!She felt like, after their divorce, Chad was constantly targeting her. First, he ruined her talks with the Hart family. Then, he almost ruined her banquet the night before.Chad was just despicable!…"Achoo!"In the Hall of Herbs, Chad suddenly let out a sneeze. He rubbed his nose as he found Matilda's number.They were just divorced for a few days, so Matilda's n
The Long Family Manor was on the outskirts of the city.However, the Long family was not as extravagant as the Hart family and was more low-key.After Chad arrived there, everyone there seemed very polite.The manor did not boast any extravagant villas, and merely had a few quaint courtyards, making it look like a small village.Audrina's aunt, Sandra Young, was in one of the buildings.As Chad entered, he saw a red sportscar in front, while the yard's decorations were very elegant and understated.The moment he entered, he heard the sound of coughing. Mystic healers relied on four methods of diagnostics, which were looking, listening, asking, and touching.Before he even saw the person, Chad already had a rough judgment in his mind. However, the cause of the illness greatly surprised him."Nathan, are your parents home?" Audrina shouted to a teen who was about fifteen or sixteen.The teen was called Nathan Long. He was walking to the house at that moment, walking as he pl
"Traditional medicine categorizes different symptoms in a detailed manner. They are split into nine types: Illness, ailment, sickness, madness, cancer, pestilence, hysteria, numbness, and parasites! What Mrs. Long has is a pestilence that isn't infectious, but incredibly hard to treat!"Hearing what Chad said, Stanley wiped the look of disdain off his face.He noticed that Chad did seem to understand Sandra's symptoms.Chad continued, "For this pestilence, you can only cure it with very targeted medication. Otherwise, you won't be able to get rid of the root of the disease, and it will torment her until her death!"Hearing that, Stanley gradually dispelled his doubts and started to worry about his wife's disease. In the past two months, Sandra saw quite a few doctors and failed to get better despite various medications and injections.They invited many renowned experts, but her condition only worsened.After two months of suffering, Sandra was already so weak that she could bar
Marilyn smiled modestly and asked, "If your surname is Jenkins, could I ask you about someone?"Chad's heart tightened at Marilyn's question, but he maintained a calm expression on his face."Who are you trying to ask about?""Would you know a Jenkins who's supposed to be a master of medicine around these parts?"Chad's expression turned strange when he heard that, and he asked her instead, "Why are you looking for that person?""I study pharmacology, and I'm very curious about the prescriptions in traditional medicine. I just wanted to learn a bit from him," Marilyn said, looking very excited. She looked at Chad with an expression that was full of hope.Ivy quickly asked, "What is this master of medicine?"Marilyn excitedly explained, "This Master Jenkins rose to fame eight years ago. He mastered the prescriptions of hundreds of medicines and is a household name overseas. I came to Bloomington with the medical team to try and visit him."When he heard what Marilyn said, Chad's
'Not interested in money? He's such a braggart!'Stanley could not think of anyone who would not be interested in money.He could not think of anything that could move someone uninterested in money.Chad had inserted needles into the top of Sandra's head and the back of her neck."I can keep her alive with these three needles. But I guess I am also the only one who can cure the disease's root cause."Audrina and her aunt, Sandra, were close. She pleaded with him. "Chad, please save my aunt. I can give you anything you want!"Stanley begged him. "Dr. Jennings, please help us. If you can cure my wife, you may ask for anything you want!"Chad said, "My principle is, if I can, I'll do it. If I can't, I'll leave!"Chad sounded cold-hearted. Stanley was exasperated.However, Chad could heal his wife, so he held back.'What can I offer Chad to persuade him?'"I have an idea!"Suddenly, Sandra spoke up. She was still frail but much better than before.She struggled as she spoke. "
Chad responded casually to Tiffany's skepticism."This is a therapeutic meal."Therapeutic meals that taste good may not cure diseases. Similarly, therapeutic meals that cure diseases may taste horrible."Tiffany brought the bowl of medicine soup to her mother despite her hesitance.Chad stayed in the kitchen to return everything to the medicine box. Soon, Marilyn arrived."Aunt Sandra looks like a changed person after drinking your medicinal soup. How did you do that?"Are you a professor in Pharmacology?"How did you do it?"According to the basics of Pharmacology, you must have used some kind of stimulant drug, right?"Marilyn responded based on her best judgment.Chad shook his head and opened the second layer of his medicine box. "This is the medicine I used."Marilyn was utterly confused after looking at the medicine in the box."These are wheat bran, cornsilk, and sorghum kernels. These tree branches are…"These are the ingredients that can strengthen and nourish th
Stanley was startled by what Chad said. He burst out in anger."What are you talking about? How is my son a matricide?"Tiffany rushed toward Chad and said, "Don't simply accuse my brother. Why would he—"She looked at her mother, Sandra. Tiffany was baffled.She finally understood. Sandra's illness was strange, and she had been unwell for two consecutive months.'Is this Nathan's fault? He wants to kill Mom?'Stanley also came to a realization.However, he did not understand why Nathan would want to kill his mother.Sandra said, "Dr. Jennings, please save my son. If he dies, I don't want to live either."Chad frowned at her. "But he wanted to kill you. Why would you want to save him?""A mother's love is beyond comprehension! He's my son. I must save him. Even if it means for me to die!"Sandra burst into tears as she spoke. She looked right into Chad's eyes.Chad laughed. "So you knew about it all this while.""Yes! I knew he wanted to kill me!"Sandra screamed at the t
Chad removed the blackened needles and flipped Nathan over.Nathan's face turned blue. Like a corpse, his eyes and mouth were wide open.Chad frowned. "There's not much time left. Do as I say, and we might stand a chance."Immediately, Sandra shouted, "Where's the knife? Tiffany, get me a knife! I want to save your brother!"Tiffany was fuming. She held her mother and yelled at Chad, "Wait. This doesn't sound right! What is this bullshit? Are you a witch doctor? How is this a way to save a person?"Sandra would sacrifice everything to save her son.She fought her way free of Tiffany's grasp and ran to Nathan. She put her hand inside his mouth.Chad was shocked to see Sandra sacrificing her life to save her son.Sandra began to experience pain shortly after. Something burrowed into her palm. The pain was excruciating.Chad did not simply watch. He extracted new needles and inserted them into Sandra's wrist."Argh!"Sandra shouted in pain. Sweat dripped down her brow.Everyon
