Chapter 1291 The Two Options

“Mr. Mazer, it’s been a few days. What’s got you so worked up? Do you need me to brew you some herbal tea to calm down?”

Upon hearing the commotion, Elijah, accompanied by Dustin and Roselyn, descended the stairs at a leisurely pace.

Surveying the disarray in the clinic, Elijah furrowed his brow momentarily but quickly regained his composure.

“Well, well, Dr. Elijah, you finally decided to show up. I was starting to think you’d turned into a hermit!” Lenny quipped, his legs crossed and a smirk playing on his lips.

“Mr. Mazer, I can’t recall ever offending you. Your repeated disruptions here are hardly appropriate,” Elijah replied calmly.

“Dr. Elijah, if I’ve come here, it’s for medical treatment, naturally. Are you implying you don’t welcome a patient like me?” Lenny taunted.

“Mr. Mazer, if you’ve come for medical treatment, I’ll certainly welcome you. However, I’m afraid your intentions might not be solely related to your health,” Elijah said with a knowing look.

“Don’t waste time on meaningless chit-chat. Let’s talk about my treatment,” Lenny suddenly pulled up his shirt, revealing a festering wound on his abdomen. He pointed to the pus-filled area and continued, “Dr. Elijah, you promised that applying your medicine would heal me quickly. But look at it now—my wound hasn’t improved; it’s gotten worse. How do you explain this?”

“Mr. Mazer, I prescribed the Golden Wound Medicine specifically for external injuries. It should not worsen your condition. Perhaps there’s been a misunderstanding on your part?” Elijah replied calmly, aware that Mr. Mazer was intentionally causing trouble.

However, he couldn’t help but acknowledge that Mr. Mazer had gone to great lengths to inflict this infection upon himself.

“Misunderstanding? You were the one who dressed my wound, and I bought the medicine from your clinic. Now that there’s a problem, you want to deny responsibility? It’s not that easy!” Lenny retorted sharply.

“Mr. Mazer, what exactly do you want? Please stop beating around the bush and state your demands clearly,” Elijah said, his expression growing colder.
