The Ex-Husband's Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 46
With a thud, Jared knelt before Leon without any hesitation. He then raised his hand and slapped himself in the face, saying, "Mister Wolf, I'm deeply sorry about what happened earlier. I shouldn't have treated you that way when all you so kindly offered to save my mother. I'm such a terrible human being..." Jared felt very guilty and remorseful.
"Don't sweat it. This was all just a misunderstanding, but I do hope that you won't act so impulsively in the future...
Leon knew that Jared did not mean to punch him. He was not that petty of a person either, so he stretched out his hand to help Jared up.
Bowden did not expect such a dramatic change in the situation. His expression turned ugly, and he scoffed coldly, "Don't bother thanking this guy, Lily! Aunt Serena's condition has already shown positive signs after receiving treatment in our hospital during this period. He just happened to put the finishing touches to the treatment by groping around without any direction!"
"You're wrong about that, Bowden! We've all seen it with our own eyes! My mother's condition never improved before this, and she couldn't even get out of bed! Mister Wolf was the one who cured her with his pressure point
treatment! This cannot have been a coincidence!" Lily said somewhat unhappily.
"Yeah!"
"It's obvious that her recovery should be credited to Mister Wolf! The hospital had nothing to do with this!"
"How shameless!"
The other two patients in the ward looked at Bowden
with disdain. They were not idiots, so it was clear to them that Bowden twisted the facts!
"Does it matter if you credit Aunt Serena's recovery to him? Her body is very weak, and she just vomited all that blood for no good reason. What he did might be a cure for the symptoms instead of the root cause, and he might even have caused some latent problems with her health!"
Bowden was still very much unconvinced.
"This..."
Lily and Jared were lost for words. They could not help but turn their attention to Leon, as they were worried that they might be some latent problems with their mother's health.
"Look carefully at the color of the blood. It's black, with a hint of purple. That's not normal blood, but the residual poison left behind by the herbs... Aunt Serena has been taking some common herbal medicines in recent months. They help with nourishing her internal energy and blood,
but they aren't the exact treatment for her issues.
Because of that, some of the toxins have accumulated in her body, which then led her condition to deteriorate..." Leon explained Serena's situation in precise detail.
When he treated Serena using the Six Points of Fate method, he not only cured her complications but also released the toxins, thus curing Serena completely.
"I see!"
Serena and the others suddenly realized.
Then Lily seemed to remember something, and looked at Bowden angrily, "Bowden, you told me before that these herbs are relatively expensive, and a course of treatment costs upward of three hundred dollars! But the truth is, these herbs are just common ones used for nourishing internal energy and blood. It didn't have any positive
effect on my mother's body, and was harmful to her! Why don't you explain what's going on?"
"Well..."
Bowden was dumbfounded. He never dreamed that his brief moment of greed would come back to bite him!
"Don't listen to that guy's nonsense, Lily! This herbal medicine does contain some common ingredients, but there are expensive ingredients too... The point is that the hospital charges according to a fixed rate. Back then, you and your brother willingly gave it to Aunt Serena too. I had no part in that!" Bowden argues.
In truth, he knew very well that the herbal medication contained only ordinary medicinal ingredients, and its best feature was nothing more than the slight health effects of nourishing blood and internal energy.
As a doctor working in a hospital, he could get a high commission from selling such medication to his patients. "Unbelievable..."
Lily and Jared were thoroughly pissed, and it did not take them much brainpower to know that something fishy was going on.
However, Bowden's refusal to admit anything meant that they had no evidence against Bowden. Even so, the good impression that they once had for Bowden had
thoroughly disappeared after what happened!
