Irene was so furious that she started tugging at Oakley while snarling, “Son, let’s go! We don’t need him!“.

Oakley wearily closed his eyes but didn’t move a muscle. Instead, he ignored his raving lunatic of a mother. Suddenly, he placed his palms on the floor, kneeled in front of William, and said earnestly, “Dr. Barrett, I’m sorry for how we acted. Please accept my sincerest apologies.”

Irene shricked, “Son, why are you kneeling to the likes of him? Get up right this instant!” She went to help him up, but he was too heavy, and she couldn’t support him. Eventually, she started bawling as she held him, crumpling to the floor.

“I’m a doctor who has taken the Hippocratic Oath, and I will do my best to uphold that oath. However, that doesn’t mean that you could take advantage of me. I’m not asking for anything outrageous; I just want you to at least show me a modicum of respect and trust. If you can’t even do such a simple thing, please leave!” William said with a straight face.

Oakley’s face was painted with remorse. ‘Dr. Barrett, I’m so sorry!”

William sighed softly. “Get up now, both of you.”

But Oakley remained on the floor as he asked expectantly, “Dr. Barrett, didn’t you say that my injuries can be treated?

“Of course, and you can recover within three days.”

“Thank you, Dr. Barrett!” Oakley was overjoyed. Meanwhile, Irene didn’t dare to utter another word and kept her mouth shut lest her son’s golden opportunity would slip through their fingers once more.

“The consultation fee is three million.”

Oakley hastily wrote a check and passed it to him with both hands, saying, “Thank you, Dr. Barrett!”

Earlier, William quoted them a price of fourteen million, but he only requested three million now. Oakley knew that he was living off the good doctor’s charity and didn’t mutter even a peep of protest at the price. Rather, there was no concealing the utter gratefulness shining in his eyes.

After William made the necessary preparations, he started treating Oakley by using Golden Needles combined with Golden Qi. In just half an hour, Oakley felt a comfortable, warm flow in his legs and all the discomfort that had been plaguing him had vanished.

After a few more minutes, William kept away the needles and said, “Try to stand up.”
