Chapter 196

Helen was already eighty this year, and apart from having a failing heart, she was pretty much in thepink.Now knowing that Kingsley could treat her cardiac disease, she couldn’t care less about seniorityor whatnot anymore and kneeled before Kingsley on the spot.Kingsley, however, took a plain glance ather and said, “I can treat your heart condition, no problem. But, we’ll see after Matt hasawoken.”Megan, who stood aside, hurriedly spoke up. “Kingsley’s right, Mom. Matt has to apologize forbeing disrespectful to Kingsley!”“That’s right! Kingsley’s the Larson Family’s dear son-in-law!” bellowedMichael as he puffed his chest and raised his chin. “Matt has acted cocky for too long. It’s time he paidthe price for it!”Helen thought they were right and hurriedly promised Kingsley, “Dr. Nicholson, I’lldefinitely give my b*stard of a son a good beating after he wakes up and see that he begs for yourforgiveness.”To that, Kingsley nodded plainly, then turned to Joshua. “Mr. Johnson, you’re still ratherweak. So you have to continue recuperating in the hospital.”“Got it, Mr. Nicholson. I’m already gratefulthat you saved me. You don’t have to bother yourself with an old man like me anymore…” Joshuathanked him from the bottom of his heart.Seeing so, Jeffred very astutely promised, “Yes, rest assured,Mr. Nicholson. I’ll definitely see that our staff take good care of Mr. Johnson!”He had already believedKingsley was Ares, the God of War, who was traveling incognito. He wouldn’t dare snub Kingsleynow.After making sure everything was settled, Kingsley finally turned to Alice. “C’mon, sis, let’s go seeReene lest she worries.”S-Sis?!Kingsley’s address to Alice rendered Jeffred jaw-dropped.Alice Krameris Mr. Nicholson’s sister?!I, Jeffred Church, fired the God of War’s sister?!And worst, even let Zaynecommandeer her research results!As the thoughts crossed his mind, Jeffred thought he saw stars, andit was as though a hive of bees were living in his ears, buzzing away.Tap, tap, tap… He lurched a fewsteps back and nearly took a terrible fall!Alan supported him and checked his pulse. “Director, yourheart and lungs are damaged from being over horrified!”Blargh! Jeffred spewed a mouthful of blood assoon as Alan finished his words. “Professor Gershwin, better take Director Church away for a rest,”Kingsley said plainly. “Damage to the heart and lungs will lead to other deterioration. He’ll be fine afteringesting a calming pill added with gold and silver leaf, amber, rhino horn, and dragon tooth.”Alan’s

eyes lit up at Kingsley’s words, and he chucked Jeffred aside to pull a notebook out of his pocket. “I’venever heard of such a strange prescription! I must note it down…”On the other hand, Kingsley grabbedAlice and headed for the elevator, no longer bothered with Jeffred and the others.Inside the elevator,Alice asked while blinking, “Kingsley, what’s going on? How is it that you have such remarkablemedical knowledge?!”“Um… you know I served in the military for the last decade, right?”“Yeah, Reenetold me about it.” Alice nodded. “But what does this have to do with your knowledge? Don’t tell me youlearned all this while you were in the military?!”“Um… Y-Yeah!” Kingsley muttered irresolutely. “I got toknow someone in the military whose family were ancient doctors for five generations. He taught me allthese acupuncture techniques.”“Hereditary medical knowledge?” Alice frowned slightly. “It’s… It’s waytoo unbelievable. The Todds, who are known as the medical family, probably don’t even have suchamazing hereditary medical knowledge…”Kingsley wiped the sweat off his forehead as he looked atAlice’s probing yet calm face. “You better believe it! I wouldn’t have believed there was such crazymedical knowledge if I hadn’t performed it myself…”“Pfft!” His words got Alice bursting into a chuckle.“No matter who you learned it from, as long as you use it to save others, I won’t press you foranswers.”Kingsley bet she didn’t believe a single word he said just now, knowing Alice was rigorousever since she was a child. At that, he chuckled with a guilty conscience. “Um… Alice, do you want tolearn ancient healing? I can teach you. You saw it yourself; they had even begged me.”“Nah, forget it.”Alice shook her head. “I much prefer the feel of a knife slicing through skin.”“……”Okay… Kingsleydidn’t know what to say to that.Just then, the elevator pinged—it had reached Floor 17.While the dooropened slowly, Alice’s promise from the day before popped into Kingsley’s head, and he hurriedlyasked, “Alice, didn’t you say you’ll agree to any request of mine if I can cure Joshua’s paralysis? You’renot having second thoughts, are you?”
