Chapter 502: Chapter 502: Well Prepared
With July Quinn’s reminder, the old man finally realized that after waking up, his ailments were truly gone.
"Really? The place that’s hurt for years seems to really not hurt at all now."
He had thought earlier that it was just a temporary improvement before passing!
But now, feeling it genuinely, he discovered not only that his abdomen was no longer in pain, but his spirits were also significantly improved.
"Your abdominal pain was nothing more than the result of years of pent-up energy. I just gave you a few needles to disperse the energy, and after three months of traditional Chinese medicine and a few more needles, you’ll be fully cured."
Amidst everyone’s amazement, July Quinn had already calmly begun to withdraw the silver needles.
"My God, young lady, did you really just relieve all my ailments with just a few needles? Thank you so much. You’re truly a lifesaver to me. I really don’t know how I’ll ever repay you."
The old man was so excited he was incoherent and even attempted to get out of bed to kneel in gratitude to July Quinn.
But in the end, July Quinn stopped him.
"No need, a doctor’s benevolence. I’ll have someone prepare those herbal medicines for you and have them sent to where you’re staying. In three months, just come to the clinic next to Apothecary Hale’s clinic to find July Quinn, and I’ll give you a second acupuncture session to complete your cure."
Upon hearing this, the old man hesitated.
"Another clinic? That’s not right. In that area, isn’t there only Dr. Hale’s clinic?"
The old man had made countless trips back and forth to Apothecary Hale’s clinic for treatment.
"It’s indeed one for now, but another will be opening in a month. Anyway, just feel free to come find me there then."
Hearing July Quinn’s words, Elder Cole and Nora Cole were still puzzled, but Shelly Cole was once again dumbfounded.
Oh my gosh, is July really planning to buy the premises in that area and open a clinic?
As for the old man, he started worrying about the cost of treatment: "Really? Thank you so much. By the way, for the treatment cost, I only have this..."
He took out the few hundred dollars that July Quinn and the others had just helped him pick up.
Even though he knew it wasn’t much, it was truly all his savings.
"No need. My clinic will open next month, and we will provide six months of free consultations. Consider yourself the first celebrity of my clinic, so you naturally don’t need to pay any treatment fees."
At this point, the old man naturally understood July Quinn’s intention and didn’t continue to press the few hundred dollars upon her, just repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
Subsequently, July Quinn arranged for the Cole Family’s driver to send the old man home and also had the driver fill a prescription for a three-month supply to be sent along to the old man.
When July Quinn went to rest, Shelly Cole quietly asked Elder Cole.
"Grandpa, did you hear that July wants to open a clinic? How come you don’t seem surprised at all?"
"July has such medical skills, I should fully support her for the benefit of everyone."
If he hadn’t just witnessed July Quinn treat that old man, Elder Cole might have been a bit worried.
But seeing July Quinn heal that old man with calm composure, Elder Cole was completely reassured.
"But she bought her place right next to Apothecary Hale’s clinic. Aren’t you worried that her clinic might suffer heavy financial losses?"
"Even if she does suffer losses, it’s all right. I’ll just continue to support her unconditionally."
Yet, speaking of this, Elder Cole couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Because his intuition told him that there seemed to be some purpose behind July Quinn opening her clinic next to Apothecary Hale’s.
Yes, not just opening a clinic, it seemed like July’s entire trip to Esteria was somehow aimed at Dr. Hale?
Is this just my imagination, or does July Quinn truly have an unresolvable conflict with Dr. Hale?
