“We’re taking her to Joshua Jenkinson to have him diagnose her illness of course!” said Gerald with a weak smile. Gerald would’ve preferred treating Naomi’s mother himself if he could. However, he was well aware that it simply wouldn’t do to treat a patient in a hotel. Besides, he didn’t have that many herbs or medicine with him at the moment. In the end, it would be much better and convenient if Naomi’s mother was treated at Joshua’s place. “Huh? We’re seeking Master Jenkinson’s help now? But didn’t you say that you were no longer Mr. Crawford, Gerald?” asked Naomi curiously. Naturally, she hadn’t meant anything else when she asked that question. She simply hadn’t expected that Gerald would still be able to maintain such connections in his current state. “Haha! Just because I’m no longer Mr. Crawford, that doesn’t mean that all my connections are now useless! Now let’s get your mother up the mountain,” replied Gerald. With that, the trio then began ascending the mountain.

“Grandpa!” shouted both Quest and the cold beauty nervously. “I’m fine. Sir, I’m willing to let Master Jenkinson diagnose the ill person from your group first. I can wait,” said the old man, much to everyone else’s surprise. “…What? But why, grandpa? Why the hell should we let him go first? Who the hell even is he?!” growled Quest angrily. “I appreciate it. After all, Joshua probably can’t treat a terminally ill patient,” said Gerald in a casual tone without any intention of being nice. “…Y-you!” shouted both Quest and the beauty in rage. Even the old man bore a rather ugly expression on his face at that moment. “While I admit that you certainly are very powerful, you should watch your mouth and manners. I don’t really mind since I’m already this old, but if you say such things to others, trouble will definitely come your way,” said the old man, lengthening his words to express his clear dissatisfaction. With daggers now drawn from both parties, the staff member—who had b

“I did indeed hear that, yes. However, since Mr. Crawford was able to notice my illness with just a simple glance, I’m sure he has a way to cure it!” said Bob, a faint smile on his face. “I apologize, but I’m no doctor. I don’t have the qualifications to treat you,” replied Gerald. Since Gerald was now still susceptible to outside dangers, he was trying his best not to be overly conspicuous. It hadn’t crossed his mind that Bob would actually wait for him right outside the guest room. “Hey, now! Have some self-awareness! Are you even aware that my grandpa’s never begged anybody for help? He’s even addressing you as Mr. Crawford out of respect! At least try to help him out!” growled Quest coldly. Hearing that, Gerald turned to look at the youth with a frown on his face. “Don’t be rude, Quest!” scolded Bob. “I’m terribly sorry Mr. Crawford… If my grandson’s rude behavior offended you, I’m willing to apologize for his sake…” said the old man as he slowly began bowing. Both Qu

Looking at the same direction Gerald was, Quest saw that a team of similar-looking cars had just parked at the foot of Yorknorth Mountain. Upon squinting his eyes, he realized that Gerald was looking at two women who had just gotten out of one of the cars. Seeing how stunned Gerald looked, Quest placed a finger under his chin as he said with a hint of interest in his tone, “Humph! You’re a grown-up, aren’t you Mr. Crawford? Are you going to tell me now that you’ve never seen beauties before? Though I have to admit that those two women are particularly stunning.” “Hush!” replied Gerald, his gaze stern as he continued looking at the two women. Gerald really hadn’t expected to bump into the two girls here of all places. The two beauties were in fact his old acquaintances, Jasmine and Mindy. He hadn’t met the two girls from the time he had bid farewell with them about half a year ago in the Salford Province. After all, after the incident at the Fenderson family mansion, his fathe

As the old man had implied, Joshua had indeed met up with the Fendersons before a few years ago. In truth, it was the Fendersons who had wanted to hire Joshua as their family’s personal doctor back then. Though they had even offered an extremely high salary, in the end, Joshua still refused their offer. “It’s a pleasure indeed,” replied Joshua with a faint smile on his face. It was at that moment when Bryson noticed a new face. Or at least half a new face. A young man was standing obediently next to Joshua as he carried a medical kit in hand. The odd thing about him, however, was the fact that the youth was wearing half a mask. It covered his upper facial features, and it wasn’t unlike a masquerade mask. “Could I know who this might be?” asked Bryson with a smile. “A-ah…! Ah!” replied the masked youth as he pointed at his own mouth before waving his hands slightly. He then pointed at Joshua before placing his palm near his heart. Seeing that, Mindy chuckled before saying,
