Chapter 58 Calling His Peers
Just as Patrick was about to depart, his phone vibrated. It was an unknown caller, so he thought it was from a patient and
rejected the call without thinking.
After a while, he received a text message: I’m Emrys Lund.Mr. Lund? Agitatedly, he called the number without delay. “I didn’t
expect you to call me, Mr. Lund. I’m delighted. Erm... I’m very sorry about what happened yesterday...”
Emrys went straight to the point. “Stop talking. Do you want to learn Needle of Ninth Revival?”.
That offer astonished Patrick for a moment before he vehemently nodded. “Of course! Not only that, but my teacher also wants
to learn it. He has been talking about studying under you for the past two days!”
“Your teacher?”
“Yeah, Duncan Rodriguez, the famous doctor.”
A brief silence ensued before Emrys spoke again with a weird voice. “This means you’re familiar with Lincoln, correct?”
“I do. We both studied under Mr. Rodriguez. However, my relationship with him is terrible. Are you perhaps his friend, Mr. Lund?”
inquired Patrick carefully.
“Great!” Patrick blurted before speedily realizing he had misspoken and explained, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lund. I didn’t mean to offend
you. What I was trying to say was that b*stard Lincoln doesn’t deserve to be your friend.”
“Stop buttering me up. In two days, Lincoln will be opening a clinic opposite Apricot Hall. I want you to invite a few people to help
me ruin the opening.”
“Sure. Send me the address. I promise you that you’ll be satisfied with the results.”
After the call ended, Patrick felt at ease, as though a ray of sunlight had shot through the dark clouds and shone on him.
Then he cackled wildly. “Hahaha... Oh, Lincoln! You shouldn’t have opposed me when we were still students. Now, you’ve even
stepped on Mr. Lund’s toe this time! You deserve whatever comes next!”
Of course, he would never tell Lincoln the truth. I hope Mr. Lund will crush you beneath his feet!
Confused, Randal stared at his father. “What’s the matter with you, Dad?” Why is he beaming after answering a call? He looked
depressed just a few minutes ago and was hurrying to reach Jadeborough Hospital.

In response, Patrick smirked. “We’ve struck gold, Randy.”
That didn’t make his son any less confused.
Ignoring him, Patrick swiftly called someone. “Hey, Abe, do you have free time during the next few days? I’ve something I want
to... Eh? You’re going to support Lincoln’s new clinic? Sure. Good luck!”
He ended the call and dialed someone else’s number. “Hey, Ray. Do you have time... Oh, you’re going to support Lincoln’s clinic
too? Good luck.”
Then he made another call. “Hey, Jaz... Oh, good luck!”
In total, he dialed more than a dozen phone numbers. Only two or three agreed to help him because they used to be his good
buddies. The rest had already been invited by Lincoln.
Puzzled, Randal inquired, “Did the excessive amount of alcohol leave a negative effect on your brain, Dad? Why are you happy
that people rejected you?”
Patrick responded profoundly, “You don’t understand. They’re all lining up to be taken out in one fell swoop! Hahaha!”
After finishing contacting his peers, he waved his hand. “Let’s go, Randy. Drive me to Mr. Rodriguez’s residence. I want to pay
him a visit.”
Duncan used to be a professor at the University of Chanaea. Every one of his students was a prominent, established figure in
hospitals nationwide.
Even the Department of Health’s chief was once his student.
He had been enjoying his retirement for nearly a decade by that point.
