Chapter 755 Did the Director Give You a Hard Time?
In a previous encounter, he witnessed Baron''s henchmening to find Kingsley.
Now, hearing the conversation between Kingsley and Cassius, he waspletely convinced that
Kingsley was a "ruthless" figure in the underworld.
Amid Jude''s trembling and torment, Alice walked in.
Upon seeing Alice, Jude rushed forward as if seeing a savior. "Dr. Kramer, you finally came! This
patient will be under your care!"
With that, he turned to Kingsley. "Mr. Nicholson, I have other patients to treat, so… I won''t stay here
with you…"

Kingsley nodded in response. "Go ahead, attend to your duties."
With his permission, Jude felt like he had been granted amnesty and left in a hurry.
He was afraid that these two underworld figures might silence him forever for hearing too much.
"What brings you here, Kingsley?" Alice walked up and asked, "Is this patient… your friend?"
Kingsley stood up and smiled "Yes, she''s the wife of my friend. She has a hereditary heart
condition, so I brought her here specifically for you, our esteemed healer, to diagnose."
"Pfft! Me? An esteemed healer?" Alice''s gloom disappeared instantly after hearing her brother''s
familiar self-deprecating humor.
She chuckled and said, "You''re the renowned Dr. Nicholson! Is there any illness you can''t treat?"
"Mainly… I''m concerned about potential cardiac abnormalities that might require surgery," Kingsley
exined. "After all, ancient healing methods aren''t omnipotent. Many cases still require surgical
intervention."
Alice nodded in agreement. "For conditions like valve recement or atrial septal defect, surgery is
indeed necessary."
She then turned to Shannon lying on the bed and asked, "Have you undergone any previous
examinations? What did the doctors say?"
"I''ve undergone all the possible tests, but no doctor could pinpoint the issue," Shannon weakly
responded. "They only mentioned that the causes of heart disease are extremelyplex and hard
to diagnose…"
Alice turned serious, and she murmured, "Your problem is quite simr to Old Mrs. Fox''s next
door…"
Mentioning Helen, Alice recalled Matt''s threat and sighed involuntarily, causing Cassius to freeze in
response. He asked with a quivering voice, "Dr. Kramer, can… can my wife''s illness still be
treated?"
Alice snapped back to reality. "Here''s what we''ll do. I''ll personally conduct a more detailed
examination of her. If we still can''t find the specific cause, we might need to have her admitted for
recuperation, just like Old Mrs. Fox in Room 11."
Then, she reassured, "Coincidentally, I''m to devise a treatment n for Old Mrs. Fox during this
period. It might yield positive results."
Thankful for Alice''s words, Cassius expressed, "Thank you so much for your efforts, Dr. Kramer! I
will certainly show my gratitude generously if you can cure my wife''s illness."
Alice waved her hand. "That won''t be necessary. Treating the sick and saving lives is my duty."
Meanwhile, Kingsley, standing aside, noticed the distressced in Alice''s expression. Combined
with the fact that she had been summoned to the director''s office, Kingsley frowned. "Alice, why
would you suddenly need to develop a treatment n for Old Mrs. Fox? Did the new director give
you a hard time?"
"No, not at all!" Alice hastily shook her head. "Old Mrs. Fox has been hospitalized for quite some
time, and we must present a practical and effective n. How could that be considered giving me a
hard time?"
She didn''t mention the details of Felix and Matt''s intimidation.
In her mind, Felix and Matt were influential figures with both wealth and power.
She was extremely concerned that if she revealed it to Kingsley, he would impulsively seek justice
for her, which would further offend the two business tycoons.
Seeing Kingsley about to inquire further, Alice hurriedly turned to Shannon and said, "It''s getting
late. Shall we proceed with the examination now?"
