As Calvin luxuriated in the euphoria of his newfound abilities, his phone pierced the tranquil air of the hotel room with an urgent melody. With a quick glance at the caller ID, he noted that it was Lizzie calling. With a deft swipe, he answered the call, greeted by the unmistakable tone of his sister's excited voice on the other end."Calvin, I already heard!" Lizzie burst out without preamble, her words tumbling over each other in her eagerness.“Heard about what, Lizzie?"The talk about the extraordinary doctor from the Charity Ball last night is already spreading like wildfire, and I've been hearing all about it!"Calvin couldn't help but chuckle softly at Lizzie's unbridled enthusiasm.

The weight of his promise to Albert Finch pressed upon him, driving him forward with an unwavering determination. Retrieving the business card from his pocket, Calvin traced the embossed letters with his fingertips, the raised edges serving as a tactile reminder of the commitment he had made.

As Calvin stepped into the dimly lit bedroom of Albert Finch, the air heavy with a sense of urgency, his gaze fell upon the unexpected arrival of a young man, Dante Finch. The familiarity in Dante's address to Albert hinted at a close familial bond, contrasting sharply with Calvin's own intrusion into their private space."Uncle, who is this man?" Dante's voice cut through the tension, his tone laced with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. His eyes narrowed as they landed on Calvin, scrutinizing him with a critical gaze.Albert's expression remained impassive as he turned to his nephew, a flicker of uncertainty crossing his features. "Dante, this is Calvin Hudson," he introduced calmly, though his words carried a subtle undercurrent of tension. "He's here to check on my condition.He's an extraordinary doctor."Dante regarded Calvin with a skeptical gaze, his demeanor guarded as he reluctantly extended his hand in greeting.

Kevin shifted his gaze to Albert Finch, his demeanor reflecting a blend of deference and admiration as he addressed the esteemed host. "Mr. Finch, please allow me to express my sincerest gratitude for extending this invitation to me," he began, his voice carrying a tone of genuine respect. "To be welcomed into the home of a former five-star general and esteemed business magnate is truly an honor beyond measure."Albert acknowledged Kevin's words with a gracious nod, a faint smile touching his lips as he reciprocated the sentiment. "The pleasure is ours, Doctor," he replied warmly, his eyes conveying a sense of appreciation for Kevin's presence.Kevin continued, his tone measured and composed as he delved into his introduction. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Dr. Kevin Lang, the proprietor of Lang Hospital," he stated with a sense of pride, his words infused with a quiet confidence.

Kevin, with a tone that carried a sense of urgency, leaned forward slightly, his gaze locked with Albert's. "Mr. Finch, time is of the essence here," he implored, his voice tinged with a hint of desperation. "I assure you, I am more than capable of conducting a thorough examination. Please, allow me to begin without further delay."Albert regarded Kevin with a measured expression, weighing his words carefully. Sensing the gravity of the situation, Dante stepped forward, his voice calm yet persuasive. "Uncle, Dr. Lang is here to help," he interjected, his tone soothing. "Let's not waste any time. It's important to address your health concerns promptly."Albert's features softened slightly as he considered Dante's words, a flicker of doubt clouding his resolve. After a brief moment of contemplation, he relented, recognizing the importance of fairness in the matter. "Very well," he conceded, his voice carrying a note of resignation. "Dr. Lang, you may proceed with the examination."With
Calvin's approach exuded a sense of purpose, each step echoing with determination as he closed the distance between himself and Albert. His eyes, a blend of piercing intellect and heartfelt empathy, bore into Albert's soul, seeking to unravel the layers of mystery shrouding his ailment. With a steady voice, Calvin embarked on a journey to decipher the enigma of Albert's health."You've dedicated much of your youth to pushing the boundaries of your physical capabilities," Calvin began, his words carrying the weight of insight born from keen observation. "Engaging in tasks that demanded sheer strength and endurance, all while neglecting the necessity of proper rest."Albert's countenance underwent a profound transformation, the veil of surprise gradually giving way to a dawn of realization.

Dante's concern was etched across his face, his brow furrowed with worry as he addressed his uncle. "Uncle, are you absolutely certain about this?" he questioned, his tone filled with uncertainty. "Shouldn't we be considering a hospital with all the latest equipment and technology?"His eyes darted between Calvin and Albert, seeking reassurance but finding none in the tense atmosphere that hung heavy in the room. "Mr. Hudson came here without any tools or equipment. How does he plan to proceed with the procedure?" Dante pressed further, his skepticism evident.Kevin seized the opportunity to reinforce Dante's reservations, his voice dripping with skepticism as he spoke. "Dante's making a valid point, Mr. Finch," he interjected, his tone tinged with derision. "It would be far more prudent for you to accompany me to Lang Hospital. We have access to the most advanced equipment available."A scornful chuckle escaped Kevin's lips as he turned his gaze towards Calvin, his expression a mixtu
