My Useless Ex-husband is Secretly A Medical Genius

7. Let's Give Him A Chance

Chapter 7 

“What's wrong with my father, Dr Herald? Why the sudden change? Is he dying?” Rooney asked anxiously, he was panic stricken at the moment. 

Everyone was also scared, as murmurs filled the room. 

“Is the Master going to die? Please Dr Herald, save the Lord!”

“What is going on, doctor?"

“Nothing must happen to the Master!”

The room was tense as everybody's hearts were overpowered with anxiety and fear. Dr Herald was also confused at this stage, he didn't know what to do . 

Killian shouted, “Calm down everyone. The Lord will be saved, you don't have to worry. His condition isn't beyond cure!” 

Everyone glanced at him in a confused manner. Did he really know what he's saying? They tried to ridicule him but he wasn't important at the moment. 

He felt their gaze on him, so he continued, “The drug injected into the Lord's  body reacted as a poison. That causes the changes in the Lord's body and if he isn't treated right now, the old man might die.”  

Everyone exclaimed, “Poison! Die!"

Doctor Herald refuted instantly, "How dare you say that? Do you mean I had injected a poison to the Lord's body? How dare you criticize my work? You aren't a professional doctor and you can't tell what is wrong with the old man.”

Killian gave him a hard stare, and brought out a bag of medicine powder out from his pocket. 

Everyone's gaze was on the powder as they wondered what he was going to use it for, and the use of it. 

It was a magical drug invented by him. It could cure every kind of poison. Only Killian knew the recipe and how it was being processed. 

In the Black Market, the powder cost a fortune. It was worth over half a million dollars for 1 gram.

The Doctor was against Killian, and he shouted. “You shouldn't allow him to use the powder on the Lord. You guys have to stop him, he is trying to kill the Lord. The powder consists of poison, I can assure you!”

The family members hesitated for a while. They all thought they should give him a chance, who knows, he might be able to cure the Lord with the powder. 

But at the mention of poison, they tried to stop him. 

The eldest Son of the family, Rooney shouted. “Hey, you have to stop what you're doing. I can afford to let you kill my father! Let the doctor settle everything."

“Yes, you are right! You need to stop it. You shouldn't perform anything on the Lord's body."

“Leave away from there, you are just a quack Doctor!" 

Killian was annoyed, the Gallagher's family were looking down on him. He doesn't like it, and they are stopping him from redeeming the old man's life. 

His expression turned stoic, and muttered to them in a cold tone. 

“If you really want the man to live; you don't have to stop me from doing my job, but if you want him to die, then I think I should let go of him!"

He looked at everyone's face as the room turned silent. Everyone was cowering in fear; no one wanted the Old man to die. 

Then Killian demanded, “Which option do you choose? I'm ready to adhere to it!" 

Everyone was shocked by his majesty, the courage he displayed in front of them. 

Doctor Herald tried to object, “What are you trying to do? You are blackmailing them through their emotions! You really know they would want the Old man to be healed and nudge you to go ahead with the treatment. You are really despicable."

Killian sneered, “You are given a chance to treat him but you failed woefully, and yet, you put the man's life at the edge of death. 

Why shouldn't they give me a trial instead? Mr Rooney, what do you say? Should I give it a try?” Killian glanced at Rooney and asked. 

The Doctor spewed out angrily, “You are speaking nonsense. I have been working as a Doctor for the past 20 years, and I never receive a bad review on my work.”

He turned to Rooney, "Mr Gallagher, he can't treat your father. He is a quack, and knows nothing about the Lord's illness. Call the security guards, he should be thrown out.”

Rooney walked towards them, and glanced at Killian sternly before speaking. 

“Not yet, Herald! Why don't we do this!" His gaze is now on Killian, "I will be giving you a chance to treat my Father, but if anything happens to him, you are not getting out of here unpunished. And I mean all I said.”

“Sure! You don't have to worry about your father's illness since you have given me the permission to treat him." Killian muttered, while Rooney nodded his head slightly. 

Killian went ahead and fed the Lord with the medicine. The Doctor wasn't okay with Killian treating the old man. 

So he shouted, “Since you didn't listen to me about this man, I'm not going to take any charges if eventually the Lord's illness gets worse or he dies!" 

Everyone hesitated before agreeing with the Doctor.  

Soon enough, there were changes in the Lord's body. The once pale face had turned red, and his heart rate became normal. 

Everyone was shocked, most especially Dr Herald. He wondered how he possibly treated the Lord. 

“Wow! He is a genius!"

“The Lord's pale face had turned normal!”

“Oh my! He should have treated the Lord all these while. How come he isn't known around the city.” 

“He is an expert; what Dr Herald can't do, he had done within some minutes. Truly, he is a genius!”

The Doctor's face blushed in total rage, the positive comments he heard about Killian makes him feel inferior. 

They are indirectly calling him an inexperienced doctor, and Killian had more knowledge than him. 

He tightened fist as he watched silently in fury. 

It wasn't up to five minutes when the Lord opened his eyes and fully recovered. 

Everyone was beyond joy, the Lord had been on the bed for the past three months, yet no one was able to cure him until Killian intervened. 

Dr Herald's eyes were filled with envy, and he tried to claim the Lord's illness cure because of him. 

“Actually, my injection had worked on the Lord. If it wasn't for my injection the Lord wouldn't have woken up.” He stated, while the members of Gallagher glared at him disdainfully. They knew he was lying, and Killian was the one who had treated the Old man. 

The First Son of the family, Rooney smirked contemptuously, and said, “You are really shameless for saying that, Dr Herald! How dare you try to lie? Mr Killian had worked diligently on saving my father from your injection. 

Your injection reacted as a poison, and my father was at the edge of dying. Did you intend to kill my father?"

He continued, “You are going to be dealt with! You deserve to be taught a lesson!”
