Chapter 25

With a bag of fresh fruits, Haylan hurried toward the Emergency Department as if his life depended

on it.

After giving Declan a piece of his mind, Haylan was ready to head home when his phone rang. It was his sister, Felicia, urgently informing him that her child was sick and had been admitted to the hospital.

Haylan didn’t waste a second and quickly grabbed some fresh fruits before rushing to the hospital. Nothing else mattered as he focused solely on getting to his sister’s child as fast as possible.

“Sir!”

Haylan had just arrived at the hospital and was on his way to the pediatric ward when Sterling Kwen rushed up to him. Without hesitation, Sterling fell to his knees and clung to Haylan’s legs, tears streaming down his face. “Thank goodness, I finally found you, sir,” Sterling sobbed. “Please, please help me.”

“Who are you?” Haylan asked, feeling a bit bewildered by Sterling’s sudden outburst.

“Who is this person?” he thought to himself. “I don’t even know him.”

“I’m Sterling, a doctor here at the hospital. Do you remember me?” Sterling asked, hoping to jog Haylan’s memory. “You used acupuncture to save an old man who collapsed on the street not too long ago.

“The old man’s condition has worsened, and we desperately need your help to save him,” Sterling implored, looking up at Haylan with tear-filled

eyes.

“Please, Sir, I implore you to help us save the old man’s life.”

Sterling wasted no time getting straight to the point and clearly explained the situation to Haylan.

“His condition has worsened? Did you take out the silver needles I inserted into him?” Haylan furrowed his brow in confusion.

“I didn’t realize how crucial the silver needles were. I’m sorry.” Sterling apologized, his voice filled with regret.

Haylan’s expression turned icy as he spoke. “Why bother coming to me if you won’t listen to my advice? I have urgent matters to attend to and can’t waste my time playing games,” he said, dismissively waving his hand.

With that, he turned to leave to visit his sister, his mind still preoccupied with the urgent matters at

hand.

Sterling quickly grabbed Haylan’s leg, desperately pleading, “Sir, please, if you don’t intervene, the patient’s family will kill us all.

“It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have underestimated you. I’m such a terrible person!

“Please!”

After speaking, he even harshly slapped himself in the face, tears streaming down as he desperately pleaded.

Haylan furrowed his brow slightly but eventually relented, his voice low. “Alright, take me there.”

Sterling was overjoyed and quickly wiped away his tears, leading Haylan to the emergency room to save the patient.

As soon as Haylan stepped into the emergency room, his gaze fell on the patient lying on the bed,

Dominic. His expression turned cold, and he approached the bed with an air of authority.
