The three of them arrived at the hospital director’s office, where Brandon’s father, Tobias Wyatt, was receiving guests.

He was a middle–aged man in his fifties, bearing some resemblance to Brandon.

After waiting for a few minutes in the side hall, Tobias bid farewell to the guests and approached Abel and Emmeline.

When Tobias saw Abel, his expression momentarily froze. He reached out his hand to shake hands but forgot to speak.

Confused, Abel asked, “Mr. Tobias, are you…”

Tobias quickly replied, “Indeed, a talented young man with a remarkable presence.”

Abel politely smiled and responded, “Mr. Tobias, you flatter me.”

Tobias exchanged a few words with Emmeline and then examined her pulse, stating, “Let the girl stay here for treatment. Within thirty days, she should be cured.”

Thank you, Mr. Tobias,” Abel exclaimed with joy. “Emma is in your hands now. If there’s anything Abel can do to repay you, please don’t hesitate to ask!”

Tobias smiled and said. “You are a close friend of Brandon, so naturally, you are my honored guest as well. There’s no need to talk about repaying. If you really want to show your gratitude, then I would appreciate it if you could share a story with me.”
