“Can you cure him?”
The light in Leanne’s eyes came back. “Are you sure you can cure him?
“If you can cure my dad, the Wright family will say yes to whatever you want!”
Thompson was the backbone of the Wright Consortium, and his death would be devastating to the Wright Consortium, as he had yet to hand it over to his descendants.
Company shares would plunge, business dealings would be affected, and a company worth tens of billions would be at risk of collapsing overnight.
The Wright family would no longer have the glory it once had!
“Of course.”
Yosef smiled proudly with a sense of wisdom.
Leanne was awestruck. “Who are you, sir?”
Shirley crossed her arms and looked proud. “My father’s the chief physician of Beth City’s Humanity Hall. Countless dignitaries in Beth City are my father’s patients.”
“Hmm, so you’re Humanity Hall’s physicians.” Leanne felt a pang in her heart.
‘Humanity Hall?
‘Isn’t that clinic I took my dad to this morning? Humanity Hall?
‘What does Beth City’s Humanity Hall have to do with Mediterranean City’s Humanity Hall?’
Yosef said lightly, “It’s just a name. Let’s hurry up and cure Old Master Wright.”
“Yes, please!”
Leanne tossed everything out of her mind.
She did not care where they were from, as long as they could cure her father.
Yosef, his son, and his daughter entered the sanatorium and started giving Thompson a proper examination.
They inserted needles into him and checked his mouth.
They also turned Thompson over, disregarding the patient’s condition.
There were several times Leanne tried to speak but stopped. She wished they would be gentler.
However, the thought that these doctors might be able to cure Thompson kept her from speaking up.
Yosef pierced three needles into Thompson’s middle bullet acupoint, hundred ghost acupoint, and center acupoint.
Clarence shouted, “That’s enough. Are you trying to torture the patient to death?”
All the doctors watching outside the sanatorium turned around and looked at Clarence in surprise.
That was when Leanne noticed Clarence.
Shirley exploded right away. “Clarence, what the hell are you talking about?
“It’s Humanity Hall’s life-saving miracle needle!
“Out of the entire Humanity Hall staff, only my dad knows how to use it. What do you mean he’ll torture the patient to death?
“Can’t you see how much Old Master Wright’s complexion has improved?”
Everyone looked at Thompson. Sure enough, Thompson’s face had changed from a deathly pale to a slighter redder tone.
His eyelids moved, and he cried, “Leanne…”
“Dad…”
Leanne instantly felt emotional and burst into tears when she heard his voice.
Clarence frowned. “That’s not a life-saving miracle needle. It’s a life-taking needle!”
Clarence’s X-ray vision had revealed that after Yosef inserted the three needles, the two vital energies on Thompson’s body, representing life, had been extinguished.
Once all the human body’s vital energy was extinguished, he would be dead.
Yosef had extinguished two vital energies with three needles. What was it, if not a life-taking needle?
“Nonsense!”
Yosef shouted coldly. “What do you know?”
“Thirteen years ago, Beth City’s Old Master Winston was suffering from an illness, and the hospital announced that he had only one month left to live. It was my life-saving miracle needle that gave Old Master Winston another year, so that the Winston family could be properly handed over to the next generation and killings were avoided!
“Nine years ago, Port Island’s Old Master Lawrence had terminal cancer, with only a month and a half to live. It was my life-saving miracle needle that extended Old Master Lawrence’s life by half a year!
“Seven years ago, the patriarch of West River Province’s Goldman family had lung disease and could only live for six months at most. It was also my life-saving miracle needle that extended his life by one and a half years!
“Five years ago, Southwest’s Ziegler family…
“Three years ago, Terrace Province’s Sullivan family…
“A year ago, Gold City’s Campbell family…
Yosef walked toward Clarence with a striking momentum, one step at a time, as he cited his impressive record.
By the time he said his final word, Clarence was already directly opposite him. “How dare a little boy like you, who is my brother-in-law’s loser son-in-law, question me?”
Clarence believed those accomplishments were true.
Yosef could not make up lies that involved rich and powerful families. Anyone could just look it up to find out the truth.
However, were those people actually going to die?
Clarence sneered, “You only talk about your accomplishments and extending their lives. Why won’t you talk about the pain these people suffered?
“If I’m not mistaken, these patients did not die after you cured them!
“However, it must have been painful to stay alive!”
Yosef’s expression changed, and he roared, “Good boy! You have a sharp tongue.
“You want to live, but do not want to suffer. How could there be such a good thing?”
Clarence said bluntly, “You’re not saving lives; you’re burning lives to buy time!”
Shirley retorted, “Do you believe what this loser says?
“I’m not afraid to tell you that he’s Clarence Howard, and he’s the Murphy family’s loser son-in-law.
“He has been an orphan since he was a child and did not even graduate junior high.
“He’s uncultured, uneducated, and knows nothing about medicine!
“After joining the Murphy family, instead of being grateful, he kept on giving trouble to the Murphy family!
“Now, he’s come to the Wright family house to stop my dad from treating Old Master Wright!
“Clarence, what on earth are you trying to do?”
Everyone there exploded as they heard that.
“What? He didn’t even graduate from junior high?”
“Does such a man know about medicine?”
“What the hell? I thought he had some good ideas, but it turns out he’s just the Murphy family’s loser son-in-law!”
“I’ve heard of this loser son-in-law. It seems that he’s been married for three years, yet has never even entered his wife’s room.”
There was a lot of excitement among the doctors in the courtyard.
Leanne’s expression was livid, and she roared, “That’s enough!”
Everyone shut up.
“Ms. Wright, your father…” Clarence started to speak.
Leanne glared at Clarence. “Clarence, shut up!
“Don’t worry about my dad’s illness!
“One more word from you, and you’re getting the f*ck out of the Wright family’s home!”
With that said, Leanne looked at Yosef respectfully. “Master Wanda, please continue to treat my father. I’ll be grateful if you can extend my father’s life.”
It was so unlike the way she treated Clarence.
“Haha, curing diseases and saving lives is my vocation.”
Yosef glanced coldly at Clarence and turned around to return to the sanatorium.
He continued to insert needles into Thompson’s body. The vital energies in Thompson’s body extinguished again.
However, Thompson’s complexion did redden to the public eye.
Clarence knew it was the end of his life, and Thompson was just going through terminal lucidity.
“Shirley, give him the life-extension pill!” Yosef said casually.
“Yes, Dad.”
Shirley did not hesitate to thrust a pill the size of a pigeon egg into Thompson’s mouth.
Within ten seconds of Thompson taking the life-extension pill, he began to shake violently. His face instantly went from rosy back to pale. His body heated up, and he let out a heart-wrenching roar.
“It hurts so much…
“How painful! Ahh…
“Leanne, kill me! Have someone kill me…
“Ahh…”
With a final scream from Thompson, there was soon silence.
Clarence saw another vital energy of Thompson’s extinguishing.
From the first seven vital energies, there were only the vital energies between the eyebrows and on the shoulders left now.
“Dad…”
Leanne was shocked.
Yosef’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. “How did this happen? There’s no reason for this to happen!”
