Chapter 977
Otto was still trying to persuade the middle-aged man. Meanwhile, Fade turned to ask Hannah and
Teddie, "What''s going on?"
They immediately exined, "Mr. Chen, my grandfather..."
After hearing the entire story, Fade''s face darkened and he stared at Marvin coldly.
Initially, Otto set up his clinic in the area to help the poor. He wanted normal and poor citizens to
have ess to health care.
Therefore, Otto charged an affordable price for his service and was respected by the poor.
Moreover, he barely profited from his work. asionally, he would have to fish out his own money
to cover the expenses.
Otto was kind and he wanted to help the needy.
However, after everyone heard about it, some people came to exploit his service.
They heard that Otto Clinic was affordable and the medicine was great, hence everyone
overcrowded the clinic.
Consequently, Otto wanted to help but he was unable to serve everyone. After all, he was only
human and he would suffer a huge loss if that continued.
In the end, Otto revised the rules. He hiked up the price of a few expensive herbs to make up for the
clinic''s loss. On the other hand, he would skim through his patients before they entered the clinic.
If the patients could afford the hospital''s medical bills, he would refer them to the hospital.
Naturally, if well-off patients insisted on receiving Otto''s treatment, he would charge them higher like
in the hospitals. It was impossible for Otto to use his own money to pay for the rich. He could only
try his best to help those in need.
It was a good idea but it was difficult to execute.
It was not hard to hike up the price of the herbs. Yet, more often than not, Otto would lower the price
to amodate the poor.
Nevertheless, it was challenging to weed through patients. Otto was familiar with the people in the
neighborhood, hence it was not difficult.
However, Otto often struggled to assess unfamiliar faces. Nevertheless, he was kind and he would
treat them as financially unstable individuals.
A month ago, Marvin Huang rushed to Otto Clinic from another ce.
Back then, Marvin was disheveled when he arrived at Otto Clinic and he seemed very poor.
Therefore, Otto was very kind and he treated Marvin for free.
As a result, Marvin visited the clinic repeatedly. He would even appear three times a week.
asionally, he was sick but he would bring his sick family and friends too. He would have different
illnesses for every visit.
It was normal if it happened once or twice. Yet, Marvin would appear over eight times in a month,
hence Otto was suspicious.
Otto decided to ask someone to investigate Marvin.
Otto was enraged when he knew what was going on.
Marvin never intended to seek Otto''s help. On the contrary, Marvin was exploiting Otto''s kindness to
make money.
Marvin gathered a few patients and dressed them in rags before visiting Otto Clinic. Otto was
sympathetic because they seemed poor, thus he would lower his charges or even do it for free.
After leaving Otto Clinic, Marvin would sell the medicine to other patients to get money.
He gathered patients withmon illnesses and the medicine from Otto Clinic was very effective. In
the end, Marvin managed to earn a fortune effortlessly.
Within a month, Marvin made over ten thousand dors by reselling the medicine.
Furthermore, Otto was livid because Marvin was not poor. In truth, Marvin was a millionaire that
owned a few shops and several estates.
As such, Otto was exasperated and cklisted Marvin. Otto would no longer treat any patients that
came with Marvin.
Marvin realized that Otto found out about his tricks, hence Marvin made an excuse to ckmail
Otto. Previously, Marvin''s wife, La Chen, was the final patient that he brought to Otto Clinic.
Therefore, Marvin med Otto for La''s condition.
Fade''s eyes were dark as he stared at Marvin, who was arguing with Otto. Fade strode over to
Marvin andnded a p on Marvin''s face. Fade eximed coldly, "Get out!"
Fade would not hold back against people like Marvin.
Marvinmitted fraud and more importantly, he was exploiting Otto''s kindness. If people like
Marvin increased, kind people would be disappointed. In the end, no one would be willing to do a
simple act of kindness.
Marvin may be burly but his swollen cheeks were burning and Fade''s p nearly made him tripped.
Marvin red at Fade furiously and yelled menacingly, "Kid, who do you think you are? How dare
you hit me? I''ll kill you!"
Marvin flexed his muscr arms and clenched his fists. He was prepared to throw a punch in
Fade''s direction.
Hannah and Teddie were anxious and they rushed to defend Fade. They shouted, "Be careful, Mr.
Chen!"
Unexpectedly, Fade turned to them smilingly and assured them, "Don''t worry, I''ll be fine. B*stards
like him won''t be able to touch me."
As he spoke, heunched a forceful kick on Marvin''s stomach and sent thetter flying out the door.
Marvinnded on the floor with a loud thud and he was coughing blood.
"Honey! How dare you hit my husband? I''ll make you pay!" La noticed that her husband was
injured and she immediately jumped to her feet. She screamed and charged at Fade.
La''s reactions surprised Fade. Initially, he thought that Marvin hired her to act the part but judging
from her feisty behaviors, she might be Marvin''s wife.
Marvin was very cruel. He would even ask his wife to take part in his fraud.
Fade frowned as he stared at La. He wanted to make a move but he decided against it when he
noticed La''s pale face and sweaty temples. He eximed sharply, "Stop!"
Fade''s demeanor frightened La. She stopped dead in her tracks and was paralyzed with fear.
Fade nced at La coldly and warned, "You wouldn''t want to cheat others by risking your health,
right?"
"What... What do you mean by that?" La was nervous.
Fade replied coldly, "You''ll know if you go to the hospital."
"I... I..." La was hesitant and doubtful.
Suddenly, Marvin shouted from outside, "Dear, don’ t listen to him. He''s just lying to you. Hurry, help
me up."
La''s eyes flickered and she rushed to Marvin. She helped him to his feet and they strode away.

Before they left, Marvin pointed at the clinic menacingly and hissed, "Watch it, I''ll be back."
Fade was indifferent to Marvin''s threat. On the contrary, he felt sorry for La and stated, "From the
looks of it, she''s really ill. I guess the rest is up to them now."
