Chapter 244 Not Interest In Money
Desmond was astonished!
He was shocked to his core.
Typically, when a patient sought medical attention, the doctor would not only take their pulse but also inquire about their discomfort. Additionally, the doctor would observe signs such as the patient’s tongue condition to make a comprehensive diagnosis,
These were the so–called four diagnostic methods involving looking, listening, asking, and feeling the pulse, and none of them could be omitted.
However, Emrys didn’t ask anything just now. He simply took Desmond’s pulse in silence and then stated the cause and symptoms of the illness.
The most crucial part was that all the symptoms he described matched perfectly.
Therefore, Desmond held the young, renowned doctor before him in high esteem, feeling utterly convinced. However, given the circumstances, he naturally hoped that his illness could be cured as soon as possible. So, with a conciliatory smile, he asked, “Dr. Lund, what about my illness?”
Emrys understood his intention and said, “That’s not a problem. I’ll write you a modified prescription for gastrodia and uncaria decoction. You can take it directly to a nearby pharmacy to have it filled. Then, you can go home, brew it into a soup, and drink it.”
“Hehe. Thank you, Dr. Lund.”
Desmond was expressing his gratitude when Jacqueline couldn’t help but remind him, “Mr. Brewer, don’t forget the reason we invited Dr. Lund here. It wasn’t for the purpose of treating your illness.”
Jacqueline’s beautiful eyes were filled with laughter, seemingly delighted by Desmond’s wholehearted admiration. She also felt joy on behalf of Emrys.
“Exactly. We mustn’t forget the main issue at hand. Dr. Lund, I have specially approved an ID for you. With this ID, you can freely enter and exit our Jazona University’s gates. You can also use this ID to teach classes to students…”
Desmond relayed all the important matters to Emrys.
Emrys responded to each point, and it was only when he was about to leave that Desmond remembered to say, “Dr. Lund, I’m getting forgetful. I was so excited that I actually forgot the most important thing.”
“What’s the matter?” Emrys asked, his face filled with confusion.
“Of course, it’s a matter of salary!”
Desmond also had a peculiar feeling in his heart. They had been discussing for so long, yet they had actually forgotten about the issue of salary. Shouldn’t this be the most concerning matter?
Emrys waved his hand dismissively and said, “Never mind. I’m not interested in money.”

Jacqueline nodded firmly, then murmured softly, “Emrys…” I’m still not used to addressing him this way! However, this is a significant leap forward in our relationship. I believe that given enough time, we can certainly make our terms of endearment for each other even more affectionate.
As the two were engrossed in their conversation, a man, robust in build and clad in a basketball uniform, appeared before them. He greeted Jacqueline warmly, “Ms. Balford!”
The man’s name was Dwayne Hobb, and he was a physical education teacher.
Previously, he was a suitor of Jacqueline.
As for why that was a matter of the past, that was because, following Zeke’s appearance, he boldly declared that Jacqueline was his woman.
He warned that any man who dared to approach Jacqueline in the future would be equivalent to provoking him.
Zeke was the son of the underground honcho, Erwin Montelongo. That meant Zeke was the young master of Black Dragon Association. Therefore, how would Dwayne dare to offend him?
It wasn’t just Dwayne; many male teachers from Jazona University had expressed their admiration for Jacqueline in the past.
After all, Jacqueline was blessed with beautiful long legs and was the daughter of the Balford family. She was a typical example of a rich and fabulous lady. If it weren’t for her interest in teaching at Jazona University, those male teachers would rarely have the opportunity to interact with someone like her.
