Chapter 158


    Yvonne blinked her bright eyes. "Mister, you can fight, you''re a gang boss, and you''re a doctor. Hey,


    are you a god or something?"


    "Um..." Kingsley scratched his head and changed the topic. "I think we should see your father now."


    "Okay, mister!" Yvonne would go with whatever Kingsley said.


    They came into the house once more, and Kingsley went to Yvonne''s father''s room. There was only


    a bed-stove and two chairs in it. A man in his fifties was lying on the bed, and he was nothing more


    than skin and bones. This man was Joshua Johnson, Leroy''s father. Joshua noticed Kingsley


    coming in, and he pushed himself up, leaning against the wall behind his bed. It was a simple


    movement, but he was already wheezing.


    "Dad, this is Leroy''s colleague. He''s..." Yvonne just realized that she did not know Kingsley''s name.


    "Kingsley. Kingsley Nicholson," Kingsley introduced himself. "I''m Leroy''s colleague, and I''m here to


    give you guys some gifts from thepany."


    Joshua was shivering with excitement. "Oh, thank you very much. It''s already really kind of you


    guys to give Leroy a job, and now you''re giving gifts? That''s really generous of you." He kept


    thanking Kingsley, and eventually, he asked, "What happened, Leoric? Did you chase those viins


    away?"


    "It wasn''t me." Leoric waved his hands. "Mr. Nicholson did it."


    Yvonne gushed, "Yeah! Mister pinned that bad guy down with just one hand!"


    "Oh my gosh. Thank you, really!" He kept bowing at Kingsley. "You saved us all."


    "That''s not all he can do, Dad. Mister is a doctor too. He says he can heal you! You have a chance


    of standing back up again!"


    "W-What?" Joshua''s eyes shone with hope. A few years ago, he fell down from a high ce at work


    and hurt his spine. The doctor told him that he would only have to undergo five or six operations if


    he worked with them, but there was only an infinitesimal chance for him to stand back up again. The


    operation itself cost an astronomical sum.


    He did not sleep for two days, and in the end, he gave up on the operation. He could not ruin his


    family just for an infinitesimal chance to stand back up. His wife eventually left him because she


    could not bear the weight of the family, and he lost all hope ever since. When Yvonne said Kingsley


    could heal him, he was in disbelief. It has been more than a decade. Can I really stand back up


    again? "I-Is it true, Mr. Nicholson? Can you heal me?" Tears welled up in his eyes. He was worried


    that this was just another false hope.


    Kingsley sat on the edge of the bed. "Let me take your pulse."


    "Of course." Joshua extended his gnarled arm to Kingsley.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    A momentter, Kingsley pulled his hand back. "I can heal you, but you''ll have to regain your


    strength before I can do anything."


    "What should we do? Feed him supplements?" Yvonne asked.


    "That won''t be enough." Kingsley shook his head. "Your father has been bedridden for years, and


    his motor functions are rusty. He needs to get a full-body check at the hospital. Once he gets rid of


    theplication, I can treat his spine. The ancient healing method would be too powerful for him


    otherwise." He told Leoric, "Can you take Mr. Johnson to Hill Crest tomorrow?"


    "Sure," Leoric said. "It''s my job."


    Joshua was in tears. He muttered, "I-It that really okay? Won''t the check up cost a lot? Leroy''s


    working hard for his future. Am I really worth his time and money?"


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Johnson," Kingsley assured him. "Ourpany pays for all their employees''


    families'' medical bills. Money is not a problem."


    Joshua sobbed, and he bowed at Kingsley. "Thank you, really! Thank you!"


    Leoric and Yvonne were confused, however. I don''t remember anypany having that policy.
