Chapter 624 Checking Up on Stork''s Background


    Kingsley''s eyes gaped. "Carson Todd is…"


    "Carson Todd is the current head of the renowned medical family, the Todds, and we were close


    when we were young," Hubert said, recalling the past. "Young and reckless, we made a small bet


    one day when we were bored. In the end, he lost to me by a move, but we didn''t make any actual


    bet back then. So, he wrote this note for me and promised that he''ll do a favor for anyone who


    comes to him with this note and won''t turn them away." Then, he chuckled and added, "Initially, I


    nned to give it to Andrew, thinking that he could ask Carson for help if he runs into any difficulties


    he can''t handle in the future, but I have changed my mind now and decided to give it to you as


    thanks for saving my life."


    Kingsley was a little touched at his words. In the traditional medicalmunity, the senior of the


    Todd Family was a powerful figure, equivalent to Henrich''s status in the underworld. Many could


    only dream of receiving aid from Carson even once. Honestly, the gift Hubert bestowed upon him


    was far too precious.


    Nheless, Kingsley gingerly kept the paper away. "Thank you for your kindness, Old Mr. Kean."


    "I should be the one to thank you." The look on Hubert''s face was kind and warm. "Furthermore, this


    may be more useful to you since you have such a deep knowledge of traditional medicine," he said


    and rose to his feet. "Alright, Dr. Nicholson. I''ve recovered and won''t hold you up any longer


    because I have to teach Stanley and Andrew a lesson. Or else, thepanies of the Kean Family


    will be ruined in their hands in a matter of time."


    As Kingsley was uninterested in interfering with someone else''s family affairs, he stood up as well.


    "Then, I''ll be taking my leave."


    Yet, he had just stepped out of the study when the Keans, who were assembled outside the room,


    surrounded him and bombarded him with questions, "What''s going on, Dr. Nicholson?"


    "Is he in a good mood? If he''s going to lose his temper, then I''m going to leave right now!"


    Andrew awkwardly scratched his nose as he inquired, "Dr. Nicholson, is my grandfather… still


    mad?"


    As soon as he asked this question, everyone, including Stanley, pricked their ears, but Kingsley


    merely took a nce at them. "Old Mr. Kean said that he''s going to teach you guys a lesson."


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    A hush fell over them upon hearing Kingsley''s reply. After that, the Keans started toe up with


    various excuses. "Oh my, I still have a lot of unfinished work in thepany. Since the old master is


    fine, it''s time for me to go."


    "Yeah, I left my stew cooking on the stove at home, and no one is watching it for me. I''ll get going


    then..."


    All of them were afraid of Hubert''s unpredictable mood swings and were ready to flee upon hearing


    that he was still furious. Meanwhile, looks of dismay washed over Stanley and Andrew''s faces—this


    was their home, and they had nowhere to run.


    Kingsley couldn''t be bothered with them. So, he walked past them and headed toward the doors.


    Xaria, who had been watching silently from the sidelines the whole time, approached him, walking


    next to him. "Dr. Nicholson, I''m truly amazed by your incredible medical skills."


    Kingsley stopped in his tracks and said, "Miss Heart, I''ve fulfilled my promise and helped you to


    treat Old Mr. Kean. Isn''t it your turn to help me out now? Do you have time to have a meal with me?


    I have a few questions to ask you."


    This woman first tried to seduce him at Jadnd Heights and became friends with Victoria


    afterward, so he always felt that there was something suspicious about her. There was no doubt


    that she had ulterior motives. Hence, he wanted to use this chance to have a good talk with her and


    find out just who she was or even better, who she was working with.
