Chapter 20: Dr. Swift

    Chapter 20: Dr. Swift


    They didn''t solve the problem of thepany until that afternoon.


    After that, Kaley rushed to the hospital with Jacob.


    Hayley and Fiona were waiting.


    They were extremely nervous.


    "Kaley, you''re finally here."


    When Jacob and Kaley arrived at the hospital, Hayley immediately walked over.


    Then, she realized that she seemed to have subconsciously ignored Jacob. Given the fact that she had


    to rely on Jacob to save her father, Hayley greeted Jacob awkwardly.


    Then Fiona greeted Jacob for the first time.


    Hayley told her about the recent events.


    Even if Fiona didn''t want to believe Jacob, she had to believe the truth. Moreover, besides being


    shocked, Fiona secretly felt joyful.


    She detested Jacob, for he was too useless and ipetent, which embarrassed her in front of all her


    rtives and friends.


    Kaley was under so much pressure from thepany. Jacob couldn''t help her in the slightest, and he


    had been hindering her. Thus, Fiona thought Jacob was unworthy of her daughter.


    However, if Jacob became powerful, then Kaley wouldn''t be so tired, and Fiona would be proud to be


    Jacob''s mother-inw.


    However,pared with Fiona''s sudden enthusiasm, Jacob was as cold as ever.


    He had no good impression of his mother-inw.


    Without saying much, Jacob directly took out the silver needle, intending to save the patient.


    Now that Jacob had reached the middle stage of Gasification Phase, he was full of energy. He only


    needed to channel the power of chaos into Brian''s body through the silver needle so as to stimte his


    nerves and to make him regain consciousness.


    However, just as Jacob was about to apply the needle, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed


    open.


    "Wait!"


    An old voice sounded.


    Hearing this, everyone turned around.


    A white-haired old man with rosy cheeks walked in.


    Behind him was Brian''s attending doctor, Finn Lee.


    "You are in the hospital. May I ask what right you have to give acupuncture to the patient?" Having


    walked in, the old man red at Jacob.


    ''Fortunately, Ie in time. Otherwise, if no one stops the brat messing around and something is


    wrong with the patient, who will be responsible?''


    "Me? I''m his son-inw." Reluctant to look at the old man, Jacob narrowed his eyes, and fixing his eyes


    on Finn, who was behind the old man.


    Finn was staring at Jacob, and a gloating expression shed in his eyes.


    "Yes, he is my son-inw." Fiona stood up and openly acknowledged that Jacob was her son-inw.


    However, after hearing it, the old man became even angrier. He shifted gaze away from Jacob to Fiona


    and said angrily, "He is your son-inw, but is he a doctor? How dare you let him mess around? You


    are an irresponsible wife."


    Fiona was shocked. Jacob was indeed not a doctor.

    Jacob stopped dealing with the business in hand, wanting to know what this old man prepared to do.


    "Who are you?" Kaley stood out.


    "He is Morris Swift, the former dean of Riverside Hospital and the president of Chinese Medicine


    Association in Riverside City."


    Finn immediately introduced Morris. Of course, apart from these two identities, Finn didn''t tell them that


    Morris was his uncle.


    Otherwise, how could he be an attending physician in Riverside Hospital at such a young age?


    However, few people knew about the rtionship between Finn and Morris.


    "Are you Dr. Swift, a highly skilled doctor?"


    Hardly did Finn finish than Fiona and Kaley rounded their eyes in disbelief.


    Morris was good at both traditional Chinese medicine and Western one.


    He had practiced medicine for decades and had never failed an operation. In the medical field, it could


    be said that he was a miracle.


    What was more, his acupuncture technique was superb.


    With his help, patients suffered from illnesses that could not be detected by advanced medical


    equipment would be better or even be cured.


    However, as he grew older, Morris almost retired. He paid more attention to health preservation and


    seldom treated the patient personally.


    Brian had be a vegetable for three years. During this period of time, Kaley and her family thought


    about seeking help from Morris, but they failed. They even had no chance to see him.


    "Yes, I''m. I feel ttered."


    Morris was slightly satisfied when he saw the expressions on Kaley''s and Fiona''s faces.


    Kaley and Fiona exchanged nces, their eyes being filled with joy.


    Morris had never failed to cure the patient. If he was willing to help, then Brian would definitely wake


    up.


    "If it weren''t for Finn''s repeated pleas, I wouldn''te," Morris continued.


    Hearing this, Finn couldn''t help but straighten himself up, and privately spoke highly of Morris.


    A trace of disdain appeared in Finn''s eyes as he looked at Jacob.


    "Thank you, Dr. Lee." Kaley and Fiona immediately thanked Finn.


    "You''re wee. I have been working on saving Brian. As long as there''s any hope, I''ll do my best.


    However, I''m still young and my medical skills are not good enough. Therefore, I turn to someone else.


    I believe that we can save Brian. I''m willing to do anything to help Brian recover," Finn said righteously.


    Ever since he failed to keep his promise after losing the bet with Jacob, his reputation had been ruined


    in the hospital. Although many people didn''t say anything in his presence, Finn heard people secretly


    speak ill of him behind his back several times.


    This almost drove Finn crazy. Thus, he had to ask Morris for help. He nned to stop Jacob when


    Jacob was about to save Brian so as to create a favorable image.


    Sure enough, after Finn finished, the gazes of the doctors and nurses who followed him suddenly


    became somewhat different.


    After all, most of the people were superficial.


    However, a discordant voice suddenly sounded, destroying the image Finn was setting up. "You know


    that your medical skills are not good. As a professional doctor, you''d better not admit it openly. You


    should keep it as a secret. Otherwise, no patient will dare to ask for your help."


    "You...."


    Finn''s gritted his teeth with hatred.


    Under normal circumstances, no doctor would take the initiative to push a patient he couldn''t cure to


    another doctor. If someone else seeded, he would embarrass himself by proving that his medical


    skills were poor.


    However, Finn acted in contravention and turned to Morris.


    Morris was known to every household. Finn was no match for Morris at medical skills, which was


    normal. Finn was willing to sacrifice his reputation and invited Morris to treat his patients. Finn almost


    seeded in building a favorable image.


    Jacob''s words disgraced him, immediately ruining his image that he hadn''t projected yet.


    "Jacob, Dr. Swift is here. Hurry up and get out of the way," Finn said coldly.


    ...


    Jacob coldly nced at Finn, and Finn felt a cold shiver of fear run through him, as if he had been


    targeted by a devil.


    Soon, Finn felt he blushed. He trembled in fear after meeting Jacob''s gaze, which was too


    embarrassing.


    Morris frowned slightly when Jacob disgraced his nephew. He could not remember how many years


    had passed since one dared to embarrass him.


    However, Morris said patiently, "Your name is Jacob, right? It''s understandable that you want to save


    your father-inw because you are filial, but..."


    "You are too noisy."


    Much to Jacob''s disgust, Morris was arrogant and liked to preach at others.


    In this world, only his master was qualified to preach at him. However, his master had already died


    hundreds of years ago.


    No one else was qualified to do it.


    Even the previous Emperor of the Dark Realm couldn''t do it, let alone a mere mortal.


    Hardly had Jacob finished when everyone present was shocked.


    ...


    How dare Jacob talk to Morris in this way?


    Jacob ridiculed Finn based on sound reason. But he did not respect Morris on no reason, which


    instantly irritated everyone.


    "Do you know who you''re talking about?"


    "Hurry up and apologize."


    Especially those doctors and nurses who worshipped Morris, they wished they could kill Jacob, as if


    their gods had been sphemed.


    Kaley and the other twodies from her family were also shocked by Jacob''s attitude.


    "You''re an idiot. Continue. The tougher you curse, the better. My uncle bes more irritable with


    age. If you dare to offend him, you won''t be able to seed in the medical circle in Riverside City."


    Finn was secretly delighted.


    Finn was reluctant to admit he was inferior to Jacob, who was able to save Brianst time. Based on


    Jacob''s good medical skill, Finn thought that Jacob definitely wanted to be a doctor. As long as Jacob


    offended Morris, Jacob would be doomed. He would never be able to stand out in his life.


    "Jacob...."


    Kaley winked at Jacob as a sign for him to apologize to Morris.


    Morris, a superb doctor who had never failed his attempt to save the patient, had a close rtionship


    with all the influential people in the Riverside City. Wealthy and powerful people were more likely to be


    afraid of death and illness.


    It could be said that in Riverside City, no one would offend Morris unless he had to. Instead, people had


    to curry favor with Morris and maintain a good rtionship with him.


    Kaley wasn''t worried that what trouble Jacob would cause to her family if he offended Morris.


    On the contrary, she was worried that if Jacob did so, most dignitaries would be hostile to him. That


    would not be worth it.


    If Jacob was a mediocrity, it would not be a big deal. But Jacob had be more and more


    outstanding. With Jacob''s wise, he would definitely deal with these nobles in the future. If he offended


    these people now, it would hinder his development.


    However, Jacob seemed not to understand Kaley’s gaze.


    "Good. Very good."


    Morris was shocked for a second after hearing Jacob''sint, and then his face darkened.


    "It looks like I shouldn''t have interfered. If so, do as you wish."


    After saying that, Morris immediately turned around and left.


    "Dr. Swift, please wait a moment!"


    Fiona immediately stopped Morris.


    After knowing that the old man was Morris, Fiona ced all her hopes on him.


    Morris had been praised as a high skilled doctor for decades, and he seeded in curing all patients


    who sought help from him.


    Although Hayley kept telling her how awesome Jacob was in the past few days, Fiona preferred to


    believe in Morris rather than Jacob.
