Chapter 319
Halt was certainly at a loss–the White family were the ones who asked for the best healer, but they were now chasing Frank away.
Still, Frank waved him off. “It’s not your fault, chief. Don’t apologize for them–I have something else to do, so I’ll be leaving now.”
“I’ll walk with you.” Hali personally escorted Frank outside.
Meanwhile, the Yaffes‘ men brought Dan to Riverton City Hospital soon enough.
Seeing Dan’s white hair and beard, everyone in the room was nodding in approval since that was their ideal image of a healer.
Kuno introduced him. “This is Dan Zimmer, the head of Riverton’s Flora Hall.”
“Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Zimmer.”

Eron hurried to Dan, shalding his hand with both his hands–his daughter was saved! Dan saniled politely. “You’re exaggerating, Mr. White. Mr. Yaffe has already informed me about your daughter’s situation along the way–time is of the essence.”
“Yes, yes.” Eron nodded repeatedly and walked with Dan to Kim’s bed.
Like Frank, Dan felt Kim’s pulse as well.. although he was soon frowning..
Kuno was naturally concerned to see that reaction. “Is Ms. White going to be fine?”
Dan inhaled deeply. “Someone wounded her, I believe?”
“That’s right!” Eron was delighted to see that he proved talented. “You could tell? Your abilities are truly divine!”
Dan nodded. “Then there’s no mistaking it–there’s an afterblow within Ms. White’s body that has yet to subside. That energy is disrupting the flow of her meridians and causing blockages everywhere.”
“What? Then what can you do, Mr. Zimmer?” Kuno quickly asked.
Dan shook his head. “Regrettably, I can’t do anything about this, as I’m not well–versed enough in martial arts to nullify the afterblow.”
Jan patted his chest. “I will do it if necessary. My martial arts is peerless here in Riverton.”
Dan gave him a look but waved him off. “That won’t do. You need to be nullifying the afterblow while performing acupuncture to clear her meridians at the same time. Being a martial elite alone without medical knowledge won’t help.”
Eron despaired at those words–where could they find someone who was amazing in both medicine and martial arts?
“Is there nothing you can do for my daughter?” he groaned.
Liv was tearful as well, not wanting her best friend to die. “You must be able to do something, Mr. Zimmer. Please save Ms. White!”
Kuno put his hands together as he pleaded as well. “Please, Mr. Zimmer. Anything for you–as
Kim absolutely despised Jan’s behavior and asked her father, “Mr. Lawrence did save my life. You can’t just chase him away like that, can you?”
Fron nodded since that was reasonable.
He pulled out a checkbook, wrote a number, and handed Frank the check. “Here’s your reward for saving my daughter’s life, kid. There’s a million in there–we’re even now.”
“No, you can keep that spare change,” Frank growled as he rose to his feet and stormed off. “Hey, Mr. Lawrence…” Hali was shrewd enough with people to see the anger on Frank’s face. He quickly gave chase and caught up to Frank at the stairs. “I’m really sorry, Mr. Lawrence–1 didn’t know that the White family could be so… stubborn.”
