Chapter 1349
“Don’t worry, it’s only a matter of time before we find Dr. Leigh and have your eyes treated.”
Callum assured Camryn.
“I don’t think you should hold out for the genius doctor though. He’s already pretty old by now and I doubt he’s still practicing anymore even if you find him. Besides, word is that Dr. Leigh has taken over. She’s learned from the legendary genius doctor himself and her skills are unmatched in the medical world.”
The way Callum saw it, being able to enlist Dr. Leigh’s help was a miracle in itself already. He did not see the need to hold out for the genius doctor.
His brother had mentioned that Dr. Leigh was a brilliant practitioner who was very good at her craft and known for making some otherworldly concoctions. She never used her concoctions for nefarious purposes, she mostly used them to instill fear and respect.
She was also said to be a brilliant fighter. She had quite a history with Mr. and Mrs. Lafayette and had saved the life of Mr. Lafayette at one point.
As far as Callum was concerned, Dr. Leigh was a direct successor of the legendary genius doctor.
“Do you know anything about the genius doctor?”
Callum answered frankly, “No, I don’t. Most of what I know are stories I heard from my brother. Remy has business dealings with York Corporation so Zachary picked up bits and pieces of information here and there.”
When Ben Young–Johnson got married, Zachary went to Annenburg to attend the wedding.
“Oh.”
Camryn stopped probing Callum with questions.
After walking for a while longer, they finally reached Callum’s car. Callum opened the door and helped Camryn get in the car. He then went to find the man who he had given a thorough beating, only to find that the man had disappeared.
Callum returned to the car and asked, “Do you know the man who tried to hurt you back there?”
“I don’t know him, he’s a complete stranger. He reeked of cigarettes; probably never stopped smoking a day of his life.”
