"His name is Eric Johnson," Connor replied.Queenie had never heard of the name before because she had limited contact with the outside world in the past four years. Even within the Oberdeens, few knew about Eric. Their status was not sufficient to learn of his existence."My brother-in-law comes from the Hernandezes in King City. He's also the nephew of Alexander Montgomery and the son of Grace Montgomery, the CEO of Montgomery Corp.," Connor said, looking at Queenie. "Now, do you still think we would fear the Oberdeens?"The Oberdeens were just a third-tier family, while two major families backed Eric. Despite the Hernandezes nearly falling from the top, they were still more powerful than normal families.Queenie hesitated for a moment and then nodded. She did not expect the Williams to have such a formidable son-in-law.-Amelia and the others were unaware of what Connor and Queenie had discussed. All they knew was that Queenie seemed to be in a better mood when she returned
Top-notch holistic physicians achieved expertise through decades of study and accumulated experience.While age wasn't a definitive measure of capability, the correlation between age and medical skills was vividly demonstrated in holistic medicine. It became evident with the leadership of many holistic clinics being held by senior physicians.Despite universities specializing in various aspects of holistic medicine, like herbal medicine, students graduating from these programs often found themselves limited to working in facilities focused on preparing herbal medicines. They lacked the broader skills needed for diagnosis and treatment.Eric couldn't help but feel a bit regretful. Despite his significant reputation in holistic medicine, personal circumstances prevented him from practicing. He wanted to pass down his medical knowledge to benefit more people.Unfortunately, mastering holistic medicine required not just interest but also a certain level of talent and patience far beyon
The showdown between holistic and modern medicine occurred in Salt City. The choice of location was deliberate.Although Salt City was a big city, it had not been well-known before the Innova Group's appearance.The level of holistic medicine in such a city would not be very high, but it would certainly attract significant attention."These people must be up to no good," Sylvia said. "They won't be satisfied until they completely trample holistic medicine."She knew that everything revolved around interests. Without interests, who would bother? Before the showdown commenced, the modern medicine faction had already launched its advertising campaign. In contrast, holistic medicine took a more subdued approach, confining discussions to its circles."It's because we've piqued their interest," Eric remarked. "In the future, the Innova Group's venture into this industry will likely encounter challenges from opponents, whether in modern or holistic medicine."Where interests clashed,
Obviously, modern medicine heavily relied on equipment for diagnosis. If a mild cold persisted for too long, there was no escaping tests like blood work.After a few words, the showdown between modern and holistic medicine commenced.Ten women sat in front of the podium—the test subjects of today's showdown.The modern medicine representative pointed to those ten women, saying, "Hol. Clarke, yesterday we used ultrasound to examine them. The results are sealed in this box. It's said that the essence of holistic medicine lies in pulse diagnosis, and any condition can be discerned. "Hol. Clarke, please examine their pulses and determine who is pregnant and whether the results align with our results."Some representatives from the field of holistic medicine present refrained from laughing. After all, pulse reading was merely the basis of holistic medicine.Winston nodded and said, "Let's begin."The modern medicine representative waved, and the first woman approached Winston and sa
During the blood test, the auditorium fell unusually silent. The anticipation was thick in the air as the results would determine the victor of this round.An hour later, a hospital doctor approached with the verdict."Congratulations, Ms. Aberdeen!" the doctor exclaimed.A stir erupted in the auditorium as the revelation unfolded.Several doctors, equally astonished, had already verified the results that Ms. Aberdeen was not pregnant.Eric chuckled. "Hol. Clarke takes this round."Sylvia nodded with a smile.Winston demonstrated efficiency by providing results in just ten minutes, contrasting sharply with modern medicine's hour-long blood test. The test result aligned with Winston's assessment.A senior doctor stood up, smiling. "This round is a draw! You holistic physicians indeed have something!"While his words seemed to praise holistic medicine, an experienced holistic physician couldn't sit still and retorted, "Dr. Cardin, what do you mean by a draw? Hol. Clarke clearly
After all, the world was never fair to begin with."Let's take a look first," Eric said. "The showdown has just begun, and it will only get tougher. Even modern medicine cannot provide absolute certainty."The patients participating in the showdown were a significant uncertain factor.Although Eric hadn't delved much into medical practice recently, he knew that complex and challenging-to-treat conditions were on the rise in modern society. Some diseases were beyond the capabilities of modern medicine.Sylvia looked at Eric and asked, "Eric, do you think the final showdown will involve diseases like cancer? Modern medicine still cannot perfectly treat cancer. What about holistic medicine?"She knew that Eric was highly skilled in holistic medicine. Not only had he healed the scars on her face without a trace, but he had also brought his deceased mentor back to life for three days. As such, Sylvia thought that Eric must have a way to deal with cancer."Holistic medicine does have m
How quickly could holistic medicine diagnose?Excluding uncommon and complicated diseases, most illnesses could be identified through observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-reading.For slightly more complex conditions, various examinations were inevitable, making the process time-consuming, as anyone who had been to a hospital would know.The two matches highlighted the significant advantage of holistic medicine for those paying attention.Despite both rounds resulting in a draw, who held the upper hand was evident. Still, it didn't imply that holistic medicine was flawless.After the two matches, the hospital returned to normal, marking only the first day of the competition.The Williams and Sonnex families closely followed the developments.For the Williams, Eric, their son-in-law, was an exceptionally skilled holistic physician. Naturally, they paid close attention to the showdown.Meanwhile, Irvin and Eric were sworn brothers, and Eric had successfully treated Josh
Sonnex Corp. had even established playgrounds on its premises.Irvin and the high-level Sonnex executives had implemented everything they could think of. As a result, Sonnex Corp. had always enjoyed an excellent reputation in Salt City.Williams Corp. had also implemented extensive benefits for its employees.Meanwhile, the Innova Group still lacked in some aspects. Due to its short establishment time and rapid development phase, certain issues naturally hadn't been considered. Nonetheless, the Innova Group did provide gyms, resting rooms, and coffee rooms.Upon hearing Irvin's words, Eric replied, "Working on it, definitely working on it!"Irvin chuckled.Queenie was bewildered. During her time with the Williams, she had sorted out the relationships.Sylvia and Eric were married, while Sylvester and Seraphine were in a relationship and about to get married. Misty was Irvin's daughter, making Irvin and Henry in-laws.Queenie couldn't understand why Irvin addressed Eric and Sylv
