Chapter 24 Master of Acupuncture
Veronica escorted Carlos away.
Leones, Gloria, and Darius arrived at Sherland Hospital.
Last night, after Orlando fell into a coma, he was sent here overnight for emergency treatment.
After a night of treatment, Orlando finally regained consciousness this morning. He could even eat and talk.
But his situation was not optimistic.
The hospital had given him a critical illness notice to let the Baker family members be mentally prepared.
“Grandfather, how are you doing?”
“I brought a highly skilled doctor to treat you!”
As soon as Gloria entered the ward, she couldn’t help telling Orlando the good news.
After all, it took her a lot of effort to invite Leones.
In the ward, many descendants of the Baker family surrounded the bed.
Gloria ran into the ward recklessly and said she brought back a highly skilled doctor.
The elders of the Baker family couldn’t help frowning slightly.
Before they could ask Gloria what was happening and where she found the doctor, they saw Leones entering the ward.
When they saw Leones, they were furious, as if they had met the murderer.
“It’s the bastard who cursed Mr. Baker yesterday!”
“How dare he come?!”
}
“It’s all his fault. If not for his curse, Mr. Baker would not have fallen ill suddenly!”
The Baker family was angry.
Gloria’s uncle, Ethan Baker, even rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward, trying to beat Leones
- up.
“Uncle Ethan, don’t!”
Gloria stood between Ethan and Leones. She desperately explained, “You can’t blame Mr. Bloom for this matter! Uncle Ethan, please listen to my explanation!”
“Explain what?” Ethan roared. “He talked nonsense at Mr. Baker’s birthday banquet last night, making Mr. Baker so angry! What else can you explain?”
“Bastard! If something happens to my dad, I won’t let you go! Just wait and see!”
“Uncle Ethan!” Gloria pushed Ethan away vigorously and said, “Mr. Bloom said those words last night because he saw that my grandfather was about to die. But we didn’t take his words seriously. So we were unprepared when my grandfather suddenly fell ill.”
“Today, I invited Mr. Bloom because he has a way to save my grandfather.”
“Please trust me once! Let Mr. Bloom try.”
After Gloria said that, everyone in the Baker family was stunned. Then, they laughed at her innocence.
There were so many experts in Sherland Hospital. They couldn’t cure Orlando. Leones was a

young man. What could he do to cure Orlando?
“I think he has a way to kill Mr. Baker!” Ethan was still full of hostility towards Leones,
“Gloria,” At this time, Gloria’s father, Jayden Baker, said, “Don’t make trouble here. The hospital director has already gone to the hospital next door to invite Mr. William. Only Mr. William can cure your grandfather’s illness!”
Just then, the ward door was opened again.
Two elderly people in their fifties entered together.
The man wearing a white coat was, the hospital director.
The other one, wearing a suit, was Philip William. He was a well–known doctor in Sherland. In addition, he was also known as the Master of Acupuncture.
“Mr. William!”
Everyone in the Baker family saw Philip and immediately came forward to greet him, not daring to neglect him.
When Gloria saw Philip, she was excited as if seeing the savior.
She thought she became muddleheaded because she was concerned about her grandfather. There were many famous doctors in Sherland. Among these doctors, Philip was the top one.
It was said that Philip had high skills in acupuncture. No matter what complicated diseases the patients had, they would be cured by his acupuncture.
“The hospital director even invited Mr. William!” Even Darius said excitedly, “Mr. Baker will be cured.”
Philip was a long–famous doctor. Even if Leones learned from Sage Killer Physician, he was too young. How much medical skill could he learn? Darius had to admit that Philip was more professional than Leones
In comparison, he was also more reliable than Leones.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Bloom,” Gloria suddenly said to Leones with some embarrassment, “I didn’t expect that the hospital director could invite Mr. William. I’m sorry to waste your time.”
“It’s okay,” Leones said calmly, “Let Mr. William treat your grandfather first. If he can’t cure him, it’s not too late for me to do it.”
His voice was low. But in this small ward, his words still reached everyone’s ears.
His words were like a drop of water in a pot of boiling oil. Everyone in the ward was stunned and started scolding Leones.
“He is crazy! How dare he talk nonsense in front of Mr. William?!”
you think
think you are?”
“If Mr. William can’t cure Mr. Baker, how can you believe you can? Who do
“He has no good intention. I think he hopes that something will happen to Mr. Baker!”
Everyone in the Baker family scolded Leones and comforted Philip in a hurry.
After all, only Philip could cure Orlando. If Leones‘ nonsense affected Philip, it would be a big loss to the Baker family.
“Mr. William, that bastard is talking nonsense. Please don’t take him seriously.”
Philip also heard Leones‘ words. But he was not annoyed but even looked at Leones with a smile.
“Do you also study traditional medicine? Who is
your master?”

Chapter 24 Master of Acupuncture
Traditional medicine valued the succession of teachings from a master to the disciples.
Philip heard Leones‘ brag and thought he might be relying on his master to be so arrogant. So Philip tried to ask first to avoid causing trouble.
Philip asked this question. Gloria answered it first, wanting to prove Leones‘ strength.
“Mr. Bloom’s master is the well–known Sage Killer Physician.”
What?!
Sage Killer Physician?
Everyone at the scene was also shocked when they heard this. They couldn’t help but look at Leones.
Ethan frowned and said, “Humph! Sage Killer Physician? He is just an evil doctor. What kind of good disciple can he teach?”
Jayden also said, “Gloria, don’t be fooled by him. I’ve never heard that Sage Killer Physician has a disciple.”
“That’s right!” Someone echoed. “I can also say that I am the disciple of Sage Killer Physician!”
At this time, Philip smiled and asked, “You said you are the disciple of Sage Killer Physician? So, do you know that whenever your master saves one person, he will kill one person?!
“Will you kill someone after you save Mr. Baker?”
“Of course not,” Gloria said, “Mr. Bloom has already made a concession.”
Philip chuckled when he heard this. He already had the answer and confirmed that Leones was not the disciple of Sage Killer Physician.
“No one can break the rule set by Sage Killer Physician. But because of this, he killed many innocent people and sent himself to prison…”
At this time, everyone in the Baker family hurriedly said, “Mr. William, don’t talk nonsense with
that bastard. Please save Mr. Baker!”
“Okay!” Philip walked to the hospital bed. “I will do my best!”
