Chapter 775

After persuading Blake, everything that came next would be much easier.

Quincy drove James back home to her house again.

After returning home, James could not wait to continue reading the medical book. James completely immersed himself in its densely packed text.

He did his best to understand the ancient words as he slowly went through them.

Before he started, he had requested a notebook and pen from Quincy.

Whenever he came across a term or text he could not understand, he’d make a note of it in the notebook. Later he turned on the computer and searched for their meaning online.

James spent his whole day at Quincy’s home studying the contents of the medical book.

“James, you should take a break. Here, have a glass of water.”

Quincy walked over with a glass of warm water, took the medical book out of James’ hands, and placed it aside. With a look of concern, she said, “You’ve been reading for hours. Your body is still quite frail. You shouldn’t be overworking yourself.”

After she mentioned his body, James stretched his sore limbs.

Having studied intensely the whole day, he was both physically and mentally exhausted. On top of that, he felt a little lightheaded.

He took the warm water from Quincy’s hand and smiled at her. “Thank you.”

“Why’re you thanking me? It’s not that big of a deal. What do you want to eat tonight? I’ll order delivery.” She beamed back at him.
