Chapter 1264 Lacking In Medical Skills
“All the doctors in our hospital have diagnosed Mr. Reuben’s condition. It’s not something that can be cured this easily. Even if it’s acupuncture, it should be performed by someone well–known.
“Mr. Reuben, if may I ask, did she mention who she is?” Chester asked.
“No.” Reuben glanced sharply at Chester, exuding an authoritative presence. “However, I realized something from our conversation. Your prestigious number–one hospital seems to have lost its
essence.
“A hospital’s purpose is to save lives. But from what I’m hearing, it sounds like you don’t want me to get better.”
Chester’s face turned pale as he hurriedly explained, “Mr. Reuben, I didn’t mean it that way. It’s just that the CT scans show-”
“CT scans. All you rely on now are machines to determine a patient’s fate. I remember your hospital’s original motto. ‘Do not define life and death; strive to save every life.‘
“It seems that Dr. Harper is not suitable to continue treating a ‘dying
man like me.”
Reuben’s words were nicely said, sending a very clear and direct message. Chester was no longer welcomed.
Chester hadn’t imagined that Reuben, who had always cooperated with his treatment, would suddenly turn against him. This treatment for the Whitmans had been pivotal for his career advancement.
The Wray family had specifically asked him to handle this case,

and he had even hoped to have the opportunity to assist Evan. That would have looked perfect on his resume!
Yet, an unknown traditional medicine doctor suddenly appeared and took his job! Who would do such a thing?

Chester racked his brains but couldn’t figure out who it could be.
How could there be a doctor in Hawford he wasn’t familiar with?
The crucial thing was that Reuben’s improved condition was undeniable. Who on earth was this person?
After leaving the Whitman residence, Chester couldn’t contain his frustration any longer. He leveraged his connections to inquire
about the situation.
“No one has been to the Whitman residence. You’re overthinking Chester. With Mr. Reuben’s condition, no one but you would dare
take it on.”
“Don’t say such things. Once Evan arrives and performs the surgery with you, the patient will naturally get better.”
“But it’s true that we haven’t been there, and it’s even less likely for
any traditional medicine practitioners.”
“Could it be a scam? Wait a couple of days and observe Mr.
Reuben’s condition. I don’t believe two needles can work miracles.
There must be some medicine involved.”
These were all the responses Chester received.
So, he decided to wait and see, aborting his plan to call Kenton. He was fully aware that informing the Wray family that he was no longer needed by Reuben and that they had found a better replacement would only make him look incompetent.
Furthermore, the situation wasn’t critical yet. The likelihood of a

scam was high,
Chester couldn’t believe there was a traditional medicine practitioner in Hawford more skilled than Evan. He hadn’t seen one in many years. Hence, he was confident the Whitmans would seek him out again soon.
Meanwhile, Reuben stood by the window as he watched Chester drive off.
He clutched the note Wynter had given him. His previous frail condition had prevented him from realizing that so many in the Whitman residence were untrustworthy.
Taylor noticed Reuben’s gaze and lowered his eyes. “Dad, are you suspicious of Dr. Harper?”
“He’s not the problem.” Reuben turned to face his two sons,
meeting their eyes. “He didn’t misuse any medications on me. He just couldn’t cure me.”
