Chapter 50
Hubert smiled and asked, “Is the ‘country bumpkin’ you’re talking about Felicia?”
“Wait, Dad, how did you know? Melvin was surprised and was about to flatter his father more, but then, he got a few hard slaps to the face.
“Dad, stop hitting me. Ouch, that hurts-
Melvin was yanked by his ear and kicked by Hubert, sending him right in front of Clive.
Hubert reprimanded him firmly as he asked, “What have you done, you rascal? I usually let you get away with your antics, but now you think you can play the kidnapper?”
Hearing this, Melvin finally understood why he was being punished. His first reaction was, “So it was Felicia, that country bumpkin, who reported me?”
And he received another round of punishment for that:
Panting, Hubert turned to Clive and said, “I’m really sorry, Mr. Walsh Senior. I promise this kind of thing will never happen again.”
With that, he glared at Melvin. “Apologize to Mr. Walsh Senior.”
Reluctantly, Melvin mumbled an apology. Anyone could tell he was submitting reluctantly, still feeling defiant inside.
He hadn’t done anything wrong, so there was no reason for him to apologize.
Clive’s expression remained unreadable as he glanced at the time and stood up to leave. “I need to go out of town for a few days. I have an emergency patient waiting for my help. I can’t stay any longer.” Once he left for this trip, he wouldn’t be back for at least three to five days.
With that, Hubert felt a jolt of panic and quickly chased after Clive. “Mr. Walsh Senior, you can’t do this. You have to help me too. I’m waiting for your help.’
Clive didn’t look back, but as he walked out with Damon, he replied, “My granddaughter, Felicia is the heiress of Harmony Medical Center.
“Don’t be fooled by her youth. She has incredible medical skills. If you really want help, you should ask her.
Clive got into the car and headed straight for the airport.
Hubert stood there, feeling the wind hit him and his headache worsening.
Melvin scoffed and said, “Dad, isn’t there any other medical master in Khogend? Do we really have to beg
him?”
Hubert was too frustrated to deal with Melvin,
He had consulted many other doctors, and they had all said the same thing-that his health was fine and there was nothing wrong. They had merely checked his pulse and confirmed that everything was normal. Hubert was suffering from a terrible headache. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have repeatedly asked Clive for a diagnosis.
He looked at Melvin with frustration and said coldly, “Of all the people to offend, why did you have to pick Mr. Walsh Senior’s granddaughter?”
Even the most powerful and influential figures in Khogend would be respectful and polite when meeting a
CHAVED
medical master of Clive’s caliber, addressing him as “Mr. Walsh Senior”.
No one dared to offend him so easily.
“It seems I have no choice but to ask this girl, Felicia, for help.”
“Dad, are you joking? Ask her? No way, I’m not going!”
“You-“
Hubert was so angry he could hardly speak. He wanted to shout that if Melvin hadn’t offended her, Clive would have already seen him, and they wouldn’t be in this situation today. But before he could say it, Hubert suddenly fell backward.
“Dad!”
Ignoring the pain from the needles still in his hand, Melvin rushed to catch him. They both ended up crashing to the ground.
Melvin’s hand bled a little, but he was fine. However, Hubert was unconscious with his eyes closed. “Go find Felicia! Hurry and bring her here.”
Melvin shouted at his two lackeys. When he saw them frozen in shock, he panicked. “You two, inside. I’ll go look for Felicia.”
