Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Beaten for No Reason
It was a plain face, yet more striking than any meticulously adorned socialite in Esteria that Old Master Keaton had ever seen.
Her brows were clear and aloof, yet the beauty was breathtaking, causing Old Master Keaton to stare in awe.
"Are you Divine Doctor Quinn?"
Though Old Master Keaton had heard plenty from the patients about Divine Doctor Quinn’s heavenly beauty while loitering outside, he had never imagined she could be this stunning.
"Hmm." July Quinn slightly surveyed the old man before her.
Regardless of his attire or demeanor, he possessed an extraordinary nobility.
Yet, to July Quinn, all of these had nothing to do with her.
What truly changed her mind about not throwing him out were those two luxurious-looking bags emblazoned with "Apothecary Hale" carried by his attendant.
"Did you visit the neighboring clinic?"
July Quinn’s voice had a somewhat lazy tone.
"Yes, just finished."
Old Master Keaton perceived that apart from her beauty, he couldn’t discern anything extraordinary about her medical skills.
He suspected she might be discontent because he had seen Dr. Hale at the neighboring clinic and wanted to kick him out.
"Was it for coronary artery disease? That half-baked practitioner probably hasn’t given you acupuncture yet."
July Quinn casually organized her bag while chatting intermittently with Old Master Keaton.
But her words genuinely startled Old Master Keaton.
"How do you know?"
From meeting July Quinn to this moment, he hadn’t mentioned his ailment or any treatment process.
"I can tell from your face."
July Quinn ignored the astonished look of Old Master Keaton, and after finishing packing her bag, she suddenly stepped forward and took a quick glance at the medicine held by the butler.
The butler briefly wanted to grab it back but was stopped by Old Master Keaton.
"Sir, this medicine won’t cure but will worsen your condition."
Perhaps, to make the medicine seem more valuable, Simon Hale included several expensive supplements.
However, Old Master Keaton’s current health was not suitable for supplements; taking them would only aggravate the condition and could even be fatal in severe cases.
"These were prescribed by Dr. Hale, what does a young girl like you know?"
The butler seemed very trusting of Simon Hale’s medical skills and immediately retorted July Quinn.
But July Quinn merely glanced at him and ignored him, continuing to say to Old Master Keaton, "Considering the fate that brought us here, I’ll prescribe you another set of medicines. Whether you take it is your own choice, I won’t interfere."
As such, when Old Master Keaton left Serenity Clinic, he had an extra prescription in his hand.
Yet having prescriptions from two doctors put Old Master Keaton in a dilemma.
One prescription was from the renowned Dr. Hale of Esteria, the other from a young girl far less reputed than Dr. Hale.
Which medicine to take was a tough decision for Old Master Keaton.
His wife noticed his dilemma, "Just take Dr. Hale’s, don’t bother with nonsense."
Old Mrs. Keaton wouldn’t believe in the remedy of any young Divine Doctor.
"But others say that young girl is a living Divine."
Therefore, when Old Master Keaton returned home, he had already collected the medicine prescribed by July Quinn.
Yet whether to take the medicine or not was troubling this indecisive person.
Upon finishing his words, Old Master Keaton received a knock on the head.
"You believe because others say so? Then why do you marry me despite others telling you otherwise then?"
When they were young, Old Mrs. Keaton’s background was not great, and their marriage faced various oppositions.
"How is it the same? You are the one I chose, and as for which doctor’s medicine to take, it’s merely a wager on which might let me accompany you longer..."
Just after saying that, Old Master Keaton received another knock on the head.
