Chapter 198

Kendrick’s brow furrowed ever so slightly. During his illness, a parade of so–called specialists had come knocking, each more self–promoting than the last, but not a single one had any real talent!

Damian continued, “Dad, Ms. Morris brought over a family heirloom remedy. I’m certain it can restore your health.”
