how the other doctors in the room weren’t making any moves, they didn’t take any

further action either.
As for James, he suddenly grabbed Alex’s hand. “Alex, this old man’s life won’tst
long, and I will probably die soon.
Before I go, can I ask you for a promise?”
Alex was startled. “Grandpa, you won’t die.”
James ignored his words, clinging onto him. “You have to promise me, otherwise I won’t
be able to go in peace.”
Alex studied hisplexion carefully, and was convinced that he hadn’t made any
mistake. He said helplessly, “Grandpa, you really won’t be dying.
I guarantee it.”
Who would have thought that James would ignore him again and shouted, “I won’t go in
peace, if you don’t promise me! I won’t be able to go in peace!”
Cheryl felt her heart break when she watched the scene in front of her. “Alex, just
promise him!”
Alex was dismayed. “I don’t even know what it is!”
James continued to yell, “Promise me, just promise me first. If you don’t, I won’t be able
to go in peace.”
Alex felt a pounding headacheing. “Fine, fine. I promise you. What is it?”
“As a man, once he gives his word, the promise must be kept. You would be considered
untrustworthy if you go back on your word.”
James suddenly seemed to have recovered
as he looked at Alex with a piercing gaze.
“Grandpa, what in the world is the matter with you?” Even Cheryl was confused by his
actions.
“It’s simple. I want you to be his wife.” James’ face turned sly.
“What?!
Grandpa… Why are you being like this? In such a moment too?!” Cheryl’s face
flushed red, embarrassed.
Alex shook his head. “Grandpa, I can agree to anything else but this. I really can’t do it, I
already have a wife. I will never divorce her.”
His words pierced Cheryl’s heart and made her a little sad.
James persisted.
“Then, how about a mistress?”
Everyone present was shocked. James had a great reputation and Cheryl was beautiful
and voluptuous. Many men would want to be James’ grandson-inw, but this old man
wanted his granddaughter to be someone’s mistress?!
Had hepletely lost his mind?
They didn’ t know that James had been so impressed by Alex’s medical skills to the
point that thetter became akin to a god in his eyes. He wouldn’t have behaved in this
way if Alex had only taught him the Thirteen Acupunctures of Hell. When his soul had
left his body, he personally witnessed firsthand Alex grabbing his soul and forcefully
pushing it back into his body at thest moment.
With such medical skills, he could only be described as a miracle doctor.
How could he let go of such a man that was impossible to be found anywhere else?
Moreover, because of her father, Cheryl had always found men repulsive. However,
Alex was the first man she had willingly epted and even proactively approached.
James may be old, but his eyes could clearly see that letting his granddaughter be his
mistress would make her happier than being the wife of another man.
“Alright, alright!”
Andrew couldn’t stand to it anymore. “We can talk about your family
affairster. A patient regaining consciousness is normal anyway. It has nothing to do
with your witch doctor trickery. Didn’t you say that you could make it so that he would be
healthy and able to be up and about in half an hour? It’s already been ten minutes, but
both his legs are still broken. I wonder how he will end up as you predicted?”
The others also couldn’t help but burst outughing. To have a patient with broken legs
be up and about, it was truly an idiotic thought.
Alex rolled his eyes. “And what if I prove it?”
Andrew waved his fist and sneered. “If you can do it, then I’ll worship you as my
teacher.”
Alex shook his head. “Your qualifications are too low, and you’re too old. I wouldn’t even
give you a second look.”
Andrew didn’t get it. “What does he mean?”
A nurse replied, “He means that you’re not qualified to be his disciple, Mr. Andrew.”
“What? Preposterous!”
Alex said, “Fine, how about this. You will publish an article in your professional Swiss
medical journals within your capacity, admitting that traditional medicine is not inferior to
your Western medicine but that the former’s even better than thetter. How’s that?”
“Hah, fine. I won’t lose anyway. If you lose, then let’s have Mr. James Coney admit that
traditional medicine is just a sham.”
Cheryl’s face contorted, but James agreed readily. “Fine, I agree!”
He had his utmost faith in Alex’s medical skills.
Alex nodded, then tore off James’ clothes and said, “Alright, then feast your eyes,
Western doctor, on the subtle wonders of my traditional medicine skills which are a
hundred times better than your Western medicine.”
