Doctor Lee's face tightened in great worry. He began to scold himself inwardly for allowing his greed to take over him.$500,000 is a huge sum of money. How on earth can a single balm cost as much as that?While Doctor Lee's mind was a bit troubled, he was searching for what to say to defend himself.However, he was aware that the Norris Family was wealthier than that. But the price he mentioned was exaggerated.Even though the family is richer than that, doesn't it look like a daytime robbery?Before Doctor Lee could find a word to say, Uncle Ashley spoke up. "As long as the balm is effective enough to cure Brother Albert's sickness, then no problem. I will pay for it."James was stunned by this and he couldn't hold it in anymore but to voice out. "Uncle Ashley, don't you think that this man only wants to make use of this advantage? $500,000 is a huge sum, don't you think so?"Doctor Lee's face suddenly became ugly. He never expected James to catch up with his scheme.But before he d
Doctor Lee continued to massage Mr. Norris's back with the balm. Throughout the process, Mr. Norris was making some low, awkward groans.Tyran was quite concerned about the strange groans from his father. Then, he asked Doctor Lee worriedly, "Doctor Lee, I suggest that you do the massage with ease."Doctor Lee knew why Tyran was feeling bothered. "I understand your concern, Tyran. But you can see that I'm not applying so much pressure to it."Tyran's face gradually grew uglier, and he asked worriedly again, "Why is Father making such awkward groans then?"He should have rushed to his father to see how he was feeling. But he didn't want to disturb Doctor Lee in the process.Then, Doctor Lee smiled slightly. "You don't need to panic, Tyran. It's the effectiveness of the Cure-All balm."Tyran sighed inwardly. Even though he wasn't convinced by his justification, he couldn't stop Doctor Lee in the process.Uncle Ashley intervened, "Tyran, let's give Doctor Lee a chance to do the needful.
Uncle Ashley and the rest of them were all in the sitting room. Not a single person among them could take their seat.They all stood on their feet, fixing their eyes on the wall clock.Uncle Ashley was patiently waiting for 40 minutes to be completed and see his brother heal from his long-time sickness.This thought in Uncle Ashley's mind was quite similar to the thought in James' mind too.However, James still doubted Doctor Lee's ability. He had sensed some shady things about him. As for that, he didn't even regard him for an inch.Doctor Lee's mind was worried about two things. Firstly, he had begun to feel some kind of strange feeling inside himself.Secondly, he wished in his mind that Mr. Norris should be healed miraculously. As he didn't have confidence about his Cure-All balm, whether it was capable enough.Meanwhile, David was very concerned about the old man's situation at that moment. He gazed at the wall clock and 20 minutes had already passed.This time, Uncle Ashley impa
Uncle Ashley's brow raised in surprise. 'Does that mean Brother Albert's sickness is still treatable?'Tyran felt a glimmer of hope in his heart too. He couldn't stand the thought of losing his father at this time.Even though Albert Norris is very sick, it doesn't change the fact that he's the backbone of the family.If Albert Norris should pass away at this time, it will cause a lot of problems for the Norris family, not only at this present moment but also in the future.David examined Mr. Norris for a few more minutes before he said, "Mr. Norris's health condition has become so worse. But I would still put out my best to treat him."As soon as David said this, Doctor Lee's voice came from behind, sneering, "Do you think you, a kid like you, can treat Mr. Norris?"Uncle Ashley dashed towards Doctor Lee in a flash and sent a slap across his face."If I hear your voice again, I will kill you immediately. Are you not the one who escalated this problem?"Uncle Ashley said, his teeth gr
Uncle Ashley gritted his teeth angrily, staring at the irritating Doctor Lee.The more he stared at him, the more he got annoyed. He didn't want to overreact, so he walked away from him.Uncle Ashley returned to David and pleaded, "I never knew you had such a wide knowledge. Pardon my ignorance."David hurriedly waved his hands, "There's no issue, Uncle Ashley."Uncle Ashley forced a smile on his face, and then he said, "If you have accepted my apology, please come and have a sit; let me entertain you properly."David was a bit surprised. Then his mind flashed to the saying that says, "Change is constant in people."David smiled lightly and replied, "Alright then."He followed Uncle Ashley as he led him to a comfortable seat in the bedroom."Tyran, hurry up and go prepare a nice tea for Mr. David," Uncle Ashley ordered Tyran.Tyran left for the kitchen and then he returned in a few minutes with a pot of tea served on a tray.He placed it on the table before David and wanted to serve i
While Albert Norris's family had gone mute at this moment out of bewilderment, Albert himself thought he was in his dreams.Just then, he hurried out of his bed and went to take a peek at his window. His children and Uncle Ashley had their eyes on the old man as he walked so healthily to the window.This surprised them more than they could even utter a word.Albert Norris peeped through the window, and his eyes squinted in a shot as he had a glance at the hot afternoon sun.Albert Norris moved his head downward a little, scanning the environment. He was extremely bewildered by the drastic change in the surroundings.The Norris Mansion now has a very elegant garden with a wide range of beautiful and mature flowers. The likes of Lotus flower, calendula, and the like.This sent a flash to his brain as he began to calculate how long he had been on his bed.With a rough estimation, Albert Norris had calculated more than twenty-five years already.This time, he turned to his family and burs
Uncle Ashley was the first person to speak. He had a scowling face at Doctor Lee and wailed angrily, "What gave you the guts to interrupt when Master David was speaking?!"Doctor Lee didn't even have any concern with that. It seemed there was something wrong with him as he remained seated on the floor.Then he said, "Mr. Ashley, please don't be an obstacle. I don't want to die."They were all taken aback and wondered what he was pointing at. Then James said, "What are you talking about? Do you even think you're worthy enough to talk to our Master David?"Doctor Lee couldn't even reply; he only remained on the floor, grumbling in pain.Doctor Lee was actually in pain, but James thought he was only playing his scheme as usual.Doctor Lee pleaded afterwards, "Mr. James, I know I have wronged Master David. Please don't let him neglect me."The statement sounded strange to their hearing. However, David already knew what was happening to him.Suddenly, Uncle Ashley burst into laughter, "Hah
Doctor Lee remained in a motionless state, with a very pale face.This time, James and the rest of the Norris family were anticipating his next action.However, with the pain, Doctor Lee was passing through at that moment, he swallowed his ego and fell to his knees in a thud."Mr. David, I accept you as my master from now on." His voice was trembling as he said this.James' face widened with a grin. He was so happy to see Master David's rival falling to his knees before him now.David didn't even care about him kneeling before him or surrendering to him as his master. His main purpose was that he wanted to teach Doctor Lee some lessons.He wanted him to learn not to look down on anyone, irrespective of their age or status.Just then, David cleared his throat and said, "Doctor Lee, learn how to respect other people because nobody is an island of knowledge."Doctor Lee's eyes dimmed, and he nodded his head as he accepted the truth."Master David, forgive me. I've learned my lessons.""S
