From A Prisoner To A Big Short’s Inheritor

Chapter 68

After lunch, Cherry Dewey went out to exercise with her grandfather.

It had been six months since she could spare some time to do this so that she would enjoy it.

On their way jogging, she saw a young man squatting on the side of the road, smoking a cigarette.

There were many unfortunate people, and Cherry had met many of them. From the kindness of her

heart, she sympathizes with them.

But she didn’t expect this guy to take out his unfortunate life experience on her grandfather by cursing

him to die.

Immediately, she became angry, glared at Leonard, and said, “What’s wrong with you? My grandfather

didn’t provoke you to deserve such a vicious curse.

“If you don’t give a good reason for that today, don’t blame me for giving you a lesson.”

Cherry held her fists tight and stared straight at him as she said that.

Although she looked tame, she had a black belt in Taekwondo.

Leonard realized the other party had misunderstood him and immediately said, “Look, young lady, your

grandfather has a brain disease and should not be exercising strenuously. It must be treated as soon

as possible before it’s too late, or he could die.”

“That is nonsense.”

Cherry Dewey gritted her teeth angrily.

“Forget it, Cherry. People who are unhappy and take out their grievances on others, like this guy is

doing. They fill themselves with negative energy. So there is no point in arguing with him.”

The old man said to his granddaughter.

Afterward, they continued their jogging.

Leonard kept on saying, “What I said is true. If you continue to run, you may pass out after three

minutes and die in ten.

“That’s all I can tell you, believe it or not.”

And then, Leonard put out the cigarette, got up, and left.

After Leonard left, Cherry grumbled, “Grandpa, why don’t you let me teach him a lesson? Da mn, this

guy.”

The old man smiled. “This kind of rotten person is useless. He only knows about complaints and being

harmful to society. Haggling with him will only lower our level. Okay, let’s keep running.”

After speaking, the old man took the lead in running.

After about 30 feet, he suddenly felt dizzy and fell straight to the ground. His whole face had turned

blue-purple.

All of a sudden, he was having trouble breathing.

At that moment, Cherry turned pale with shock,

“Grandpa, what’s wrong with you? Grandpa…”

The old man was non-responsive.

With Leonard’s words still fresh in mind, Cherry put aside her pride, quickly got up, and chased after

him.

Fortunately, Leonard didn’t go far, and she quickly caught up with him.

Blocking Leonard’s way,

“Please, Sir. I was wrong. My grandfather has passed out. Please save him.”

Leonard pouted.

“I’m just trashy man, and I can only talk nonsense. I can’t save people.”

With that said, he was about to leave.

Seeing that, Cherry quickly went down with both knees in front of Leonard with a plop,

“I was wrong. Sir, I have mistaken you. Please save my grandpa.”

She was about to kowtow to Leonard.

What Leonard said was just some angry outburst. He was not going to stand by and watch someone

die.

So he reached down and helped the woman up,

“Okay, take me back and have a look.”

At this moment, the old man was lying there motionless.

There were many

on-lookers too.

Leonard thought quickly. Typically speaking, he can massage to disperse the congestion in the old

man’s brain.

But Leonard didn’t have more time. So he waved Cherry out of the way, then raised his palm and

slapped the old man’s forehead with it.

“What are you doing?”

Seeing what Leonard was doing, Cherry’s eyes widened immediately, and she came up to stop him.

But she was just a step slow, and Leonard’s palm had already slapped the old man’s forehead.

It was so forceful that the old man’s head bumped against the ground.

The on-lookers started to point fingers.

“What’s with that? The old man is already dead, and he still hits him with his palm.”

“It seems that the woman begged him to save the old man just now.”

“Save him? Do you think this young man looks like he is saving people? And have you ever heard that

saving people by slapping with palms?”

At that moment, Cherry was completely in a rage. She raised her leg and tried to strike Leonard with a

high whip.

However, as soon as she lifted her leg, Leonard grabbed her ankle.

Cherry felt that Leonard’s hand was like an ironclad, so she immediately knew this young man was an

expert.

Cherry shouted, “You ba stard. If something happens to my grandfather, I will go after you.”

“I’m treating your grandfather.”

Leonard let go of her ankle.

Cherry almost lost her balance and stepped back a few steps.

At this moment, the old man, lying motionless on the ground, suddenly coughed.

After coughing up some thick phlegm, the old man began to breathe smoothly, and he recovered.

Cherry was about to strike again, froze on the spot.

Then, with a look of relief on her face, she went to help her grandpa up, patting him on the back.

“Are you okay, Grandpa?”

The old man was still a little dazed.

After a few seconds, he stood up and held Leonard’s hand,

“Young man, thank you for saving my life.”

Leonard smiled and said, “Saving people’s lives is what I should do. I only relieved your symptoms

temporarily. You still need to go to the hospital for treatment.

“However, if you trust me, I can give you a prescription using traditional medicine to recuperate.”

“Of course we trust you.”

The old man said quickly.

“Young man, you just saved my life. How can I not trust you.”

“Yes.”

Cherry nodded repeatedly on the side.

“Okay, do you have a pen and paper? I’ll write down the prescription for you, and you just have to buy

and take.”

It was the first time Leonard had practiced his medical skills, and he was still a little apprehensive, but

now seeing that the old man had recovered, his confidence suddenly soared.

Chapter 68

“I have it here.” A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses standing next to Leonard took out a piece of

paper and a pen from his briefcase and handed them to him.

They all witnessed Leonard’s medical skills just now, and they admired him very much.

Leonard took the pen and wrote down the prescription.

The old man looked at it and nodded again and again.

This penmanship was excellent, with high achievement.

After handing the prescription to the old man, Leonard was about to leave.

Cherry suddenly said, “Sir, you are so skilled in medicine. I have a friend whose father is terminally ill. I

wonder if you can take a look.”

Cherry added, “If you can cure my friend’s father, she is willing to pay you any amount.”

Leonard just had a small test of skills today and wanted to practice more, so he nodded. “Okay, where

does your friend live? When do you want me to go?”

“She lives in the eastern suburbs of Newden City. If it’s convenient for you, let’s go there now. Her

father is dying these days.”

Seeing that Leonard had agreed, Cherry was a little excited.

“Okay.”

Leonard accepted the request.

“Sir, I have to take care of my grandfather. I’ll send someone to take you there directly. Would that be

okay?”

“No problem.”

Leonard nodded.

Cherry made a phone call, and two passenger vans arrived after a little while.

Cherry helped her grandfather get into one of them, while Leonard got into the other one and headed

straight for the eastern suburbs.

Eastern suburb, villa area.

The commercial vehicle stopped at the gate of the villa compound.

A woman was anxiously standing at the door, looking around.

She was a bit surprised when she saw Leonard coming out of the van. She didn’t expect him to be so

young.

But the next moment, she went straight up and grabbed Leonard’s hand, and pulled him inside.

“My father is dying. If you can save him, I will give you six million dollars.”
