“Are you telling me that only that Rhys punk can cure my daughter’s sickness?” He furrowed his brows as the

“You certainly need the right person for the right job, so we’ll have to track him down no matter what it takes.”

The doctor confirmed.

After dialing the number, he swiftly handed the phone over to Edwin.
