Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18 What if I could cure it?

Lachlan first took Rowan to the hospital to complete Nora's discharge procedures, and then brought the little one with him to visit the Ward family. With today's incident and his daughter still in the hospital, he was feeling a bit uneasy.

When Nora heard that her father was taking her to someone else's house as a guest, she was quite happy. In reality, at five years old she should have already been attending kindergarten, but due to Nora's condition, she never had the opportunity.

Therefore, Nora often felt lonely and wished for more human interaction. Upon arriving at the Ward family's home, they saw two elderly men sitting face-to-face playing chess in a courtyard.

On Erik's right side sat the little girl holding a Barbie doll while watching her great- grandfather play chess. The other elderly man wore an unusual blue mask on his face.

Standing behind him was a beautiful young woman in her twenties with an exquisite appearance and an extremely curvaceous figure. After Lachlan arrived and glanced at the masked elder for a moment before settling his gaze on this young woman who caught his attention.

After staring at her for some time with an odd expression on his face, she asked, "What are you looking at?" The young woman noticed Lachlan staring at her and immediately raised her eyebrows coldly rebuking him.

This woman seemed to have quite an attitude problem.

"Mr. Willis! You're here!"

Upon seeing Lachlan arrive, Erik stood up to greet him.

Since Rowan was able to find out where Lachlan lived, it was only natural that the Ward family would also know his full name.

The old man with the mask and the young woman were surprised by this scene.

As someone of Erik's status, why would he be so polite to a young man?

"Reeva, calm down. This young man seems to be Mr. Ward's distinguished guest," advised the masked old man.

Reeva then let out a soft snort and put away her hostile gaze towards Lachlan. However, in her heart she had already labeled him as a frivolous person because of where he kept staring at.

"Hello there, Mr. Ward," said Lachlan confidently.

"And who might this little one be?" asked Erik as he looked at Nora.

"She's my daughter. Nora, say hello to grandpa," replied Lachlan while holding Nora's small hand.

"Grandpa," Nora called sweetly.

"Hey, come here. I will give you a hug," Erik smiled kindly and crouched down to pick up Nora.

Seeing this scene, Chloe Ward pouted and glared at Nora with resentment as if her own great-grandfather had been snatched away from her.

After some pleasantries, Erik put down Nora and got straight to the point, expressing his gratitude for what happened last time. He pulled out a bank card with 2 million dollars in it and an exclusive black diamond card. With this card, Lachlan could enter any of the Ward family's business establishments for free.

Lachlan waved his hand dismissively. "Mr. Ward, I don't need these things. If you really want to thank me, do you happen to have Dragon Marrow Herb? My daughter has leukemia and I only need this herb to cure her."

"Leukemia!" Erik's eyes turned towards Nora with added tenderness upon hearing Lachlan's words.

At the same time, he gained a new appreciation for Lachlan's medical skills - leukemia was a worldwide problem that even top doctors struggled with treating. Yet Lachlan claimed he could cure it?

Meanwhile, Chloe - who had been hostile towards Nora earlier - blinked before walking over while holding her Barbie doll out towards her.

"Here! You can play with it."

Although Chloe was somewhat mischievous at times, she didn't have bad intentions in mind.

"Dragon Marrow Herb? I haven't heard of that, but I have collected some precious herbs myself, many of which I can't even name. Why don't you go find it yourself, Mr. Willis?" Erik said uncertainly.
