seniority or whatnot anymore and kneeled before Kingsley on the spot.Kingsley, however, took a plain glance at her and said, “I can treat your heart condition, no problem. But, we’ll see after Matt has awoken.”Megan, who stood aside, hurriedly spoke up. “Kingsley’s right, Mom. Matt has to apologize for being disrespectful to Kingsley!”“That’s right! Kingsley’s the Larson Family’s dear son-in-law!” bellowed Michael as he puffed his chest and raised his chin. “Matt has acted cocky for too long. It’s time he paid the price for it!”Helen thought they were right and hurriedly promised Kingsley, “Dr. Nicholson, I’ll definitely give my b*stard of a son a good beating after he wakes up and see that he begs for your forgiveness.”To that, Kingsley nodded plainly, then turned to Joshua. “Mr. Johnson, you’re still rather weak. So you have to continue recuperating in the hospital.”“Got it, Mr. Nicholson. I’m already grateful that you saved me. You don’t have to bother yourself with an old man like me anymore…” Joshua thanked him from the bottom of his heart.Seeing so, Jeffred very astutely promised, “Yes, rest assured, Mr. Nicholson. I’ll definitely see that our staff take good care of Mr. Johnson!”He had already believed Kingsley was Ares, the God of War, who was traveling incognito. He wouldn’t dare snub Kingsley now.After making sure everything was settled, Kingsley finally turned to Alice. “C’mon, sis, let’s go see Reene lest she worries.”S-Sis?!Kingsley’s address to Alice rendered Jeffred jaw-dropped.Alice Kramer is Mr. Nicholson’s sister?!I, Jeffred Church, fired the God of War’s sister?!And worst, even let Zayne commandeer her research results!As the thoughts crossed his mind, Jeffred thought he saw stars, and it was as though a hive of bees were living in his ears, buzzing away.Tap, tap, tap… He lurched a few steps back and nearly took a terrible fall!Alan supported him and checked his pulse. “Director, your heart and lungs are damaged from being over horrified!”Blargh! Jeffred spewed a mouthful of blood as soon as Alan finished his words. “Professor Gershwin, better take Director Church away for a rest,” Kingsley said plainly. “Damage to the heart and lungs will lead to other deterioration. He’ll be fine after ingesting a calming pill added with gold and silver leaf, amber, rhino horn, and dragon tooth.”Alan’s eyes lit up at Kingsley’s words, and he chucked Jeffred aside to pull a notebook out of his pocket. “I’ve never heard of such a strange prescription! I must note it down…”On the other hand, Kingsley grabbed Alice and headed for the elevator, no longer bothered with Jeffred and the others.Inside the elevator, Alice asked while blinking, “Kingsley, what’s going on? How is it that you have such remarkable medical knowledge?!”“Um… you know I served in the military for the last decade, right?”“Yeah, Reene told me about it.” Alice nodded. “But what does this have to do with your knowledge? Don’t tell me you learned all this while you were in the military?!”“Um… Y-Yeah!” Kingsley muttered irresolutely. “I got to know someone in the military whose family were ancient doctors for five generations. He taught me all these acupuncture techniques.”“Hereditary medical knowledge?” Alice frowned slightly. “It’s… It’s way too unbelievable. The Todds, who are known as the medical family, probably don’t even have such amazing hereditary medical knowledge…”Kingsley wiped the sweat off his forehead as he looked at Alice’s probing yet calm face. “You better believe it! I wouldn’t have believed there was such crazy medical knowledge if I hadn’t performed it myself…”“Pfft!”
