Chapter 57

Over here, the furious Brody was dragged to the back by the staff. Glaring at the staff with anger, he said, “Why did you putt me? Let me go teach that bastard a lesson.”

“Shh!” The staff urgently asked Brody to lower his voice.

Brody, observing the staff’s demeanor, seemed as if he had sensed something. He looked at the staff with curiosity and then asked, “What the hell are you doing?”

The staff cautiously glanced toward the door at the back, realizing Gavin was not there, and then replied, “Mr. Hill, I think you can’t confront that guy head-on at this moment!”

“Why?” Brody had a sense of defiance in his heart and disdainfully looked at the staff.

The staff hurriedly whispered, “Mr. Hill. I know you plan to buy this coptis herb and give it to Dr. Myers, right?”

Dr. Myers? It seemed that the staff also knew him.

Brody looked at the staff and said, “That’s right, and I also expect him to accept me as his student!”

The staff said again, “So, you’re definitely determined to get this herb. But now, that guy outside is so formidable, and the people you brought with you have all been compromised! If you confront this guy head-on again, it’s likely that you won’t be able to take this herb, and you’ll suffer even more.”

Although Brody did not want to admit it, what the staff said was right. The opponent had already dealt with all the people he brought with him. If that guy were to fight him, it would be a piece of cake. He would not only get a beating but also miss out on the gift he prepared for Dr. Myers! This way, the loss would outweigh the gain!

Brody asked impatiently. “Then tell me, what should I do?”

The staff revealed a mysterious smile and slowly took out a tray from behind himself, saying, “Mr. Hill, take a look at this!” When Brody saw the tray in the staff’s hand, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he expressed intense delight. “Is that the coptis herb?”
