Chapter 95 Father's Whereabouts
"Lily, why are you so excited? I'm just giving you a suggestion out of kindness. Since you value this young man so much, I'll let him stay. But the doctor of Peace House is here. We can't let him go for nothing, can we?" Edie forced a smile and spoke.
She knew very well that as long as there was a little chance to cure Ryan, Titus would never miss it.
Miguel glanced at Yank disdainfully and said with great confidence, "Mr. Chapman, don't worry. I know very well about Mr. Chapman's condition. I know how to cure him, and it will be in vain for other unrelated people to stay."
Yank admired him. He didn't expect Miguel to be even more arrogant than himself.
"Mr. Chapman, since this miracle-working doctor of Peace House has a way to cure Mr. Chapman, I think what he said is true. Life is of greater value than everything. It doesn't matter who saved him. Let him see first!" Yank said humbly.
Then Yank condescended to ask for advice with a smile, "Doctor House, please give me a chance to learn. I promise I won't disturb you."
Miguel was very satisfied with being respected by Yank, in addition, Yank was called by Titus, it was inappropriate for him to drive Yank away, so he nodded generously and agreed.
In fact, Titus was hesitant. Peace House was indeed famous. He also thought to call Keefe to see his father, but Keefe was semi-retired now and only treat his friends and relatives. Almost not treat outsiders, even if the rich men.
He was worried that he would make Yank unhappy if he agreed, but he didn't expect that Yank was so generous and didn't get angry at all. Instead, he allowed Miguel to see his father, which made him feel ashamed.
Since Yank said so, Titus stopped saying anything and took the lead to go to Mr. Chapman's room.
On the way there, Lily deliberately waited for Yank to walk side by side. Seeing this situation, Yank thought of the conversation in the car and frowned.
"I'm sorry. My mother is such a person. Don't mind." Lily suddenly said.
Yank was stunned and said with a smile, "Why did you apologize? It's not your fault. Besides, I'm not that fragile as you think.

However, Yank finally understood why Lily looked like a tough woman before. She had no mother to accompany her when she was a child and could only rely on her father for survival. Naturally, she was more like Titus.
But it was more or less a sad story.
As soon as he arrived at the room, Yank smelled the smell of traditional medicine before he entered the room. It could be imagined how many traditional medicine the patient had eaten in the room. After Titus opened the door, an old man with a thin and pale face appeared in his sight.
Mr. Chapman looked very weak with dry and shriveled skin which made him look like a dying mummy.
He was lying on the bed, too weak to move. If it weren't for his beard that was slowly blowing with his breath, he would have looked like a dead man at first glance.
Yank couldn't help sighing with emotion. Fortunately, Titus was a filial son and the Chapmans were rich. If he was from an ordinary family, he would have been left alone on the street, waiting to die.
Instead of depending on rare and precious medicinal ingredients to live, this old man wouldn't be able to live until today without them.
Seeing this heart-wrenching scene, Titus misted over. He quickly stepped forward and called, "Dad, wake up, I take someone to see you."
Hearing this, Mr. Chapman slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Titus beside the bed, he sighed. "Titus, I know my illness. You don't have to waste your money. It will only be in vain."
Titus immediately refused and said,
"Dad, don't give up. This is a great opportunity: I called a doctor with excellent medical skills to cure you. Cheer up. Live on, please! Otherwise, how can you see Lily gettingo married?"
Lily was greatly touched. She leaned against the bed with tears and said in a choked voice, "Yes, grandpa, you can't just leave like this. I want you to see me getting married!" Although Titus still didn't know the result of the treatment, he couldn't let his father lose the motivation to live.
But at the same time, Titus began to feel nervous. The last hope was in the hands of Yank and Miguel. If both of them could do nothing, he knew that his father would never agree to any other treatments.
As a result of Lily and Titus' constant persuasion, Mr. Chapman finally changed his mind. With the help of the two, he sat up against the bedhead with a pillow.
He looked at Miguel and then saw a disgusted face which was naturally belonged to his former daughter-in-law, Edie.
When he saw Yank, his eyes widened. It seemed that the face in front of him matched a familiar face. He pointed at Yank with a trembling finger and asked, "Who, who is he?"
Titus quickly helped her up and explained, "Oh, he is the husband of that the Longs' daughter. His name is Yank. Dad, what are you doing?"
Mr. Old Chapman looked very confused. He blinked his eyes and murmured, "How could it be so similar? But look carefully, he doesn't look like him. Is it really my illusion just now?"
Then Titus also introduced Miguel. When he heard that it was Keefe's grandson, his eyes lit up. "Every oak has been an acorn. I'll have to trouble you with my illness."
Yank didn't care about being looked down upon, because he was recalling Mr. Old Chapman's reaction when he saw him just now. It was obvious that he had seen someone who looked similar to him, which frightened him.
The only explanation was that Mr. Old Chapman knew his father.
Yank had an idea instantly. If he could really find out the whereabouts of his father from Mr. Old Chapman, it would be great news.
When he was excited, he heard Miguel speak.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Old Chapman. I'm Miguel and Keefe is my grandfather. He told me to try my best to heal you, and gave you a good price of the treatment fee."
Hearing this, Mr. Old Chapman
smiled and said, "Miguel, you are too

Chapmans are not stingy. As long as

As Miguel was about to treat Mr. Old Chapman, he heard him saying, "Miguel, wait a minute."
Noticing Miguel was confused, Ryan explained, "Don't misunderstand. I mean, you can wait and see my condition clearly when I had an attack If you feel my pulse now, it may affect your
