Chapter 986

Eventually, Zephyr relented. "Fine, you sly old fox. I shall treat your wife." He heaved a long sigh of resignation. "But you must promise me never to sell this house, demolish it, or use it to threaten me again." I have to put all the security measures in place in case this b*stard comes after me again.

Alexander's lips curled in a fake smile. "If you're that worried about the property, why didn't you take ownership of it?"

"I reserve my right to refuse to answer." Zephyr put his hands in his pockets, refusing to elaborate further.

"Of course." Alexander stopped pressing for answers. "Now tell me what you need. Anything you can come up with, I'll get them for you. No matter how expensive."

"Ah, I can purchase the herbs myself. Just foot the bill for me. Now, let me see the wound." Zephyr composed himself and got into his work mode.

"I trust that you won't." Alexander had faith in the doctor. "Now, check her wound."

Zephyr nodded and approached Elise, the look on his face solemn. "I'll need you to show your wound, Elise. Might have some skin contact, so pardon me." He was a professional, but he had to make that disclaimer just in case Alexander got jealous.
