Chapter 29 Franklin Sunderland

Franklin Sunderland was lying on the bed, his stomach inflated as if two basketballs had been stuffed

in there. He was sighing non–stop, seemingly anxious.

The Sunderlands were equally worried.

When Emrys pressed Franklin’s stomach, the latter couldn’t stop crying out in pain.

By then, Emrys had figured out what was going on. But before he could start treating Franklin,

someone barged into the room.

“Thomas, I’ve gotten Dr. Quick to come! Let’s hurry up and let him treat Dad!”

The one who had just entered looked very much like Thomas. He was none other than the second son

of the Sunderland family, Lucas Sunderland.

A skinny elderly man with a medical kit entered after Lucas. He looked like he was in his sixties, and he

looked suspicious.

Nevertheless, despite his mediocre appearance, he was one of the top physicians in Jadeborough. He

was Elliot Quick, also known as the Doctor of One Prescription.

In other words, he was a physician who could supposedly cure a patient with one mere prescription.

Thomas furrowed his brows when he heard that Elliot had come. Of all times for this darn old–timer



to come.

As it turned out, the Sunderland brothers had gone to seek Elliot’s help when their father first fell ill.

However, Elliot had told them he was not interested in consulting those who were not deathly

ill.

Without a choice, the brothers had gone to look for other doctors, but the rest of the doctors could not

help their father at all.

Elliot had only come now so that he could get the desperate brothers to pay any sum he wanted.

Naturally, Thomas was not happy about that.

Before he could say anything, Elliot scoffed, “What is this? Don’t hire me if you look down on

me.”

He was irked when he saw Emrys treating Franklin..

Lucas did not expect Thomas to have hired another physician, and he froze. However, he noticed that

Emrys was young, so he had more faith in Elliot’s medical proficiency.

“Dr. Quick, this is a misunderstanding. Please don’t be angry. We only went to other doctors

because you didn’t want to come. We can’t just stand aside and watch our father suffer!” Lucas hastily

explained, fearing that Elliot would just storm off.

Elliot clicked his tongue. “So you’re blaming me for not coming sooner?”

“Of course not. I’m immensely grateful that you’re willing to come and treat my father.”

“That’s more like it,” Elliot said arrogantly. “I’ll treat him, but the consultation fee will be double the initial

price.”

“What?” Lucas blurted out. “Dr. Quick, didn’t we agree on the consultation fee? Why are you doubling it

now?”

“Hmph! It’s a different situation now.” Elliot shot Emrys a contemptuous look before he continued to say

to Lucas, “The consultation fee would have remained the same if this brat wasn’t around, but for you to

invite him here is a sign of your distrust in me. Therefore, I’m doubling the consultation fee.”

“I…” Lucas did not know what else to say.

Thomas was enraged. Right as he was about to tell Elliot to scram out of their house, he heard Emrys

say, “Let him treat your father first.”

Thomas suppressed his anger and said to Elliot grimly, “The amount of the consultation fee isn’t an

issue as long as you can cure my father.”

It was only then Franklin dramatically put down his medical kit and started taking Franklin’s pulse. At

the same time, he mocked, “Brat, you should thank your lucky stars that you’re getting to witness how I

work today.”

Sure enough, Elliot was a professional. He soon diagnosed Franklin after a while of taking his pulse.



He wrote a prescription and passed it to Lucas. “Purchase the herbs listed on this paper and brew them

now. Get three hundred milliliters of the concoction, and remember to exclude the dregs.”

Lucas immediately did as told.

There was a herbal store nearby, and Lucas soon returned with the necessary herbs.

Once he brewed the concoction, he brought a bowl of dark herbal tonic to Franklin.

Elliot said confidently, “Old Mr. Sunderland, you’ll recover completely after finishing the medicine.”

Lucas had complete faith in him.

He was about to feed Franklin the medicine when he found himself in a predicament.

“Dr. Quick, my dad vomits everything he swallows. I can’t feed him this!”

“Really?”

Elliot furrowed his brows. He retrieved the bowl and fed Franklin the medicine himself. Unfortunately,

the elderly man immediately spat it out.

“Old Mr. Sunderland, you must finish this medicine. How will you recover otherwise?” Elliot said sternly.

Franklin was in a feeble state at present, and he would have struck Elliot with a resounding slap if he

was strong enough.

Do you think I’m deliberately refusing to drink? My b*dy is refusing to take anything! Damn it! I can’t

even drink water now. How could he ask me to drink the medicine? Is he a fool?

Seeing that Franklin refused to finish the medicine, Elliot grew anxious.

This won’t do. I can’t destroy my reputation as the Doctor of One Prescription.

Elliot knitted his brows and fell deep into thought. A while later, an idea occurred to him. “Why don’t I

massage your stomach, Old Mr. Sunderland? That way, you might be able to stomach the medicine.”

He then began to massage Franklin’s stomach using a traditional massage method.

“Ow! Where are you pressing?”

Franklin had been feeling weak, but when Elliot began to massage him, he suddenly jolted upright as a

sharp pain coursed through his b*dy. In a moment of confusion and alarm, he reflexively slapped Elliot.
