Chapter 653 Arrogant
The people turned toward the voice and saw a middle-aged man helping a greying old man into the house.
That middle-aged man was Ewan’s younger brother, Frazier. The greying old man was the director of Angelwood General Hospital, Stieg Jeppesen.
When the Sabines saw that Stieg had arrived, they quickly stood up to welcome him to the main seat.
They had completely forgotten about Jared. After all, they were initially suspicious about Jared’s identity as a miracle doctor, for he was far too young. On the other hand, Stieg was a well-known miracle doctor in the northeast.
However, as he was old, he had stopped taking patients after his retirement regardless of how much the other party offered. Someone had even offered him a hundred million to take a patient, but he had rejected it as well.
Thus, the Sabines could finally see hope again when they saw that Frazier had managed to convince Stieg to take the case.
After scanning the Sabines pridefully, Stieg said, “Frazier, I’ve promised to treat your brother, so I hope you won’t forget about the promise you’ve made to me. If you dare lie to me, remember that it’s still easy for me to crush you all despite my age.”
“Dr. Jeppesen, I’ll definitely keep my word. Once you’ve treated my brother, I’ll bring you to see the decamillennium ginseng right away. If you’re interested in it, we’ll sell it to you,” Frazier quickly guaranteed.
As it turned out, Stieg was there for the decamillennium ginseng as well.
“Dr. Jeppesen, as long as you can treat my father, we’ll agree to any terms,” Ludovic hastily chimed in.
They were all putting their hopes on Stieg. If Stieg could not do anything, they were sure that the others would not be able to do anything either.
After hearing the Sabines’ promise, Stieg nodded in satisfaction.
“Ludovic, we came first. Mr. Chance can treat your father as well. How could you promise it to someone else now?”
Zyaire was upset when he saw the Sabines promise the decamillennium ginseng to Stieg.
Glancing at Zyaire, Ludovic muttered apologetically, “Mr. Rider, we don’t know who this man is, so we can’t trust him. Dr. Jeppesen, on the other hand, is a famous miracle doctor in the region. I’m sure you’ve heard his name too. Of course we’ll have to let Dr. Jeppesen have it instead…”
Just as Zyaire was about to say something else, Jared stopped him. “You don’t need to say anything else to them. No one can treat the head of the family’s illness but me, so there’s no harm in letting him try.”
Jared knew that Ewan was not ill at all. His symptoms, to summarize, were hysteria. It was not something curable with medication.
Hearing that, Stieg, who was sitting on the couch, shot Jared a cold look. Jared looked like he was in his twenties, but he sounded arrogant, which was an obvious sign that he did not think much of him.
“Hmph. You’re young but arrogant. I’ve been a doctor for decades. You weren’t even born when I started diagnosing patients!” Stieg chided Jared.
“Boy, where did you come from? How dare you say such conceited things in front of Dr. Jeppesen? Don’t you know that Dr. Jeppesen is a famous miracle doctor in the northeast region? There’s nothing he can’t cure. If Dr. Jeppesen can’t cure it, then no one can,” Frazier huffed in disdain as he studied Jared.
“Indeed. I’ve never heard of anything that Dr. Jeppesen can’t cure.”
“You’re but a young boy. What do you know? It’s best if you stand aside and make way for the others…”
The Sabines were all scoffing at Jared.
