Chapter 175


    Larry flipped through the medical report and said, “The patient has been bedridden for too long. He has


    low levels of immunity, and there are signs of joint contracture along his Achilles tendon. Also, he did


    not maintain a proper dietary intake, so his bodycks the necessary vitamins and nutrients, or in other


    words, he is malnourished.”When Larry noticed the frown on Kingsley’s face, he hurriedly added,


    “However, due to the patient’s active lifestyle prior to this, his body is still in rtively good health. The


    aforementioned symptoms will not pose too much of a problem.”“Exin.”“Malnutrition can be easily


    addressed with a gradual increase in dietary intake, while the Achilles tendon contracture can be


    remedied with physical therapy,” Larry borated. “It’s clear that the patient’s family has taken very


    good care of him. The patient doesn’t have any of the usual rashes, sores, or inmmation that we


    usually see in bedridden patients.”Kingsley nodded. “This means that he will fully recover once we look


    into his nutrition, treat his paralysis, and conduct physical therapy?”“Yes… Uhh, actually no…” Larry’s


    expression became a little awkward. “About that… Let me be frank with you. His injury is on his lumbar


    spine, and it has been a very long time, so there is very little hope of him regaining the ability to


    walk…”Kingsley had a faint smile on his face. “You don’t need to worry about that. I have my ways of


    treating him.”All the other doctors present, including Larry, were left speechless.Even Alice muttered


    under her breath, “Kingsley, what are you saying? Even I can tell that there’s no hope in treating his


    injury. Don’t make a fool out of yourself by speaking so carelessly.”Kingsley smirked and did not bother


    defending himself.All would be proven once he performed acupuncture on Joshua the day after


    tomorrow!Kingsley lowered his eyes to gaze at Joshua, who was lying on the hospital bed. He spoke


    reassuringly, “Did you hear that, Mr. Johnson? The doctors said that your body is in good condition.


    The hospital will be giving you nutritional supplements for the next two days, so just stay here and have


    a good rest. You don’t need to worry about anything else.”Overwhelmed with emotion, Joshua trembled


    as he grasped Kingsley’s hand and dered, “Thank you. Really, Thank you so much, Mr. Nicholson. I


    never thought that I would be able to get such a thorough medical checkup.”“You don’t need to thank


    me. This is all credited to Leroy’s excellent performance at thepany, and it’s thepany that’s


    providing this benefit in return.” He took a look around the room and asked curiously, “Didn’t you tell


    Leroy about youing to the hospital? Why isn’t he here?”Joshua wiped his grateful tears away and


    exined, “I did tell him, but he said that he was supervising on-site, so he couldn’t leave.”Kingsley


    nodded in understanding. He recognized that this was Leroy’s way of repaying him.He could not help


    but sigh at Leroy’s innocence and sincerity.“Don’t worry, Mr. Johnson. Thepany will ensure that


    Leroy takes a few days off toe and apany you,” Kingsley said. “Make sure you rest well over


    these two days. I’ll start your treatment the day after tomorrow.”“Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Nicholson. I


    am forever in your debt…”Joshua’s tears were streaming down his face as he thanked Kingsley


    profusely.At the same time, all the other doctors exchanged nces with one another and shared


    simr looks of derision.They were all specialists in different medical fields, and they had looked into


    Joshua’s injury in great detail. There was no hope for recovery at all.Yet Kingsley kept repeating that he


    would be treating Joshua in a few days.How could that even happen?However, none of them dared to


    voice their doubts due to Kingsley’s status.They could only purse their lips and exchange scornful


    expressions with one another.Alice noticed their behaviors.Her lips twitched as she decided to find a


    time to knock some sense into Kingsley.Where did he learn to talk big at such a young age?Now that


    Kingsley was assured about Joshua’s condition, there was no need for him to stay on any longer.He


    needed to head back to Coliree Group and see if Lancer had any updates after his interrogation with


    Jonas Kolstad and Karl Osberg.“Alice, could you look after Mr. Johnson for a bit?” Kingsley asked. “I’ll


    get his son toe over this afternoon.”“Alright. Don’t worry, I’ll be here at the hospital, so you don’t


    need to be concerned about Reene or Mr. Johnson.”Just a moment ago, Alice had been contemting


    how she intended to lecture Kingsley for his actions, but looking at his face, she lost all the fight in her.It


    seemed like no matter what Kingsley asked of her, she would agree without a second thought.She


    wouldn’t even hesitate at all.After instructing Larry and the other doctors to take good care of Joshua,


    Kingsley and Alice exited the ward.In the corridor, two people stepped out from the restrooms dressed


    in cleaners’ uniforms.They were carrying a mop and several rags with them, and their expressions


    were filled with difort and contempt.It turned out to be Jennifer Crawford and Brian Malkovich, the


    two who had mocked Alice.“It’s you?”Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
