Chapter 404
Julius didn’t show up that night. It seemed like he had been assigned to another task.
The next morning, Simon’s men arrived early to fetch Cassandra.
She took her medical tools and went to Simon’s room.
The room’s furnishings were full of primitive tribal flavor, such as an ox head and tiger skin.
When Cassandra entered, Simon was praying, naturally seeking wealth.
“Good morning, Dr. Quirke. Let’s get started.” Simon sat on the sofa and went straight to the point.
“Okay.” Cassandra sat down across from him without hesitation.
She opened her medical kit. To be honest, she rarely used these items.
Cassandra checked Simon and found that his symptoms were similar to what she had expected. She thought that Simon deserved it.
“It’s not a big problem. Just leave it to me, and you will be cured within two weeks,” Cassandra said confidently.
Simon’s eyes.
“Of course.”
lit up and he asked with disbelief, “Are you telling the truth?”
“Boss, don’t be deceived. He is bragging. How can it be cured in just two weeks?”
One of Simon’s subordinates didn’t believe it at all. Simon had seen so many doctors, and they all said there was no cure for him. How could it possible to be cured in just two weeks?
He said the doctor was boasting.
Simon was also suspicious of Cassandra’s claim that his illness could be cured in just two weeks. He didn’t dare to hope for a cure within a year, which would be very lucky for him.
“If you don’t believe me, let me go. I have many patients waiting for me,” Cassandra said coldly.

Hearing this, Simon panicked and shouted to his subordinate, “Get the fuck out of here!”
“Boss…” Simon’s subordinate knew the doctor had no good intentions. How could there be such a panacea that could cure a terminally ill patient in a short time?
Anyway, he did not believe it. But his master had already gone crazy to believe. such a ridiculous statement.
“You don’t need to drive him away,” Cassandra interrupted.
“Doubt is not a bad thing. Since he is concerned about you, let me give you the medicine right away. If it proves effective, your man will feel relieved.”
“But…” Simon hesitated.
“How dare you use those counterfeit medicines on my boss? Are you obsessed. about money?” The man insisted and then turned to Simon, saying, “Boss, this person should be arrested. There must be something wrong with him!”
Cassandra felt that the man was troublesome, so she approached him and pricked his acupuncture point with a silver needle, rendering him unable to speak.
“Your man is so noisy, isn’t he? Now we can speak more quietly.”
Simon was shocked by her technique, wondering what had been done to render his man unable to speak immediately.
“Yes, you are right, Dr. Quirke.”
None of the doctors he had seen were able to perform such an amazing technique.
Perhaps his illness could improve.
“Dr. Quirke, please give me the medicine,” Simon said, dispelling his doubts. Even the man looked at her incredulously with wide eyes.
‘I can’t talk. What happened? I even can’t open my mouth. What the hell did he do to me? Boss, why are you still taking the medicine?‘ Simon’s subordinate was anxious, but he could not utter a word.
Cassandra said in a serious tone, “I’ll give you acupuncture first. After that, I will apply the medicine to you. The first application will be very painful for half an hour, but it will gradually improve afterwards. Applying the medicine will take an hour.”

“Are there any side effects after applying the medicine?” Simon asked skeptically.
“It’s okay. You will feel much better after applying the medicine. At least, you will be able to breathe smoothly and feel less uncomfortable.”
“Thank you, Dr. Quirke.”
In the hotel, Kenneth and Eddie were making plans.
Kenneth and Jeremiah speculated that Cassandra would solve this matter within half a month, so they had to prepare in advance.
Suddenly, their superior made a video call.
“Kenneth, Eddie, you must arrest Faye Quirke!”
Kenneth and Eddie looked at each other with puzzled expressions. “Why?” asked
Kenneth.
The leader shouted furiously in the video, “Faye Quirke went to treat Simon. If Simon is really cured, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
The mere thought of a healthy Simon effortlessly navigating through smuggling lines drove the leader to madness. He lost his temper upon learning that Faye Quirke would be treating Simon.
Upon hearing this, Kenneth was at a loss for words.
“Boss, you should trust Dr. Quirke. He wouldn’t do such a thing. You know this from his past.”
Kenneth told Eddie about the truth because he knew that Eddie would keep it a
secret.
However, Kenneth should not disclose that Cassandra had become an undercover agent.
“Kenneth, you may not really know who Dr. Quirke is. Do you have to wait until Simon is cured before you listen to me?” The leader was even angrier at Kenneth’s explanation.
