It did not take long for Frieda to bring the man over. She only took an hour.

Jonathan quickly greeted, “Old Mr. Lomax.”

Peregrine studied the siblings for a moment before turning to speak to Jonathan in a nicer tone. “Where's your grandfather?”

Jonathan furrowed his brows and said, “My grandpa isn't in the pink of health. He has been recuperating away from the house recently. If you want to meet him, I'll bring you to him after you treat my friend.” Then, fearing that the elderly man would misunderstand his words, he quickly added, “My friend's condition is terrible, and she can't afford to waste any more time. Please forgive me for making you travel this far.”

Peregrine seemed satisfied with his attitude, for he nodded his head and said, “It's fine. Saving a life is more important. Where's the patient?”

Jonathan immediately replied, “She's at the hospital. I'll bring you to her right now.”

With that, he strode forward to lead the way.

Frieda deliberately walked at a slower pace to stay by Peregrine's side in an attempt to make her seem closer to him.

After they got into the car, Jonathan drove them to the hospital in a swift but steady manner.

A while later, the car came to a stop by the entrance of the hospital.

Lucian was already waiting downstairs.

After listening to Jonathan's introduction, Lucian figured out that the reclusive experts were prideful individuals. The humbler he showed himself to be, the better the impression they would have of him.

That way, they would do their best to treat Roxanne.

“Lucian, this is Old Mr. Lomax—Peregrine Lomax, a master in medicine.”

Jonathan was surprised to find Lucian waiting for them downstairs, but he soon realized why Lucian was there. He quickly introduced, “Old Mr. Lomax, this is the current head of the Farwell family, Lucian Farwell.”

Lucian lowered his head a little and reached out his hand to Peregrine. “I'm sorry for the trouble, Old Mr. Lomax. I've already hired famous doctors all over the world to treat her, but none knew how. I hope that you'll be able to give us a tip or two.”

Peregrine nodded, but he did not shake Lucian's hand. “Etiquettes are not important to me. Bring me to her now.”

Without hesitation, Lucian retracted his arm and led the way.

Peregrine was impressed by Lucian's decisive demeanor.

Once they reached the top floor, the doctors were stunned to find out who had come.

They were all middle-aged individuals who had heard about the King of Medicine of Merania sixteen years ago. In fact, they had heard of him from the news too.
























They had been young when they learned he had become a hermit, and they felt wistful about the matter.

Little did they expect to see him in person that day.

The second the man of the legends came, silence draped over the corridor.

However, Peregrine ignored them and followed Lucian into the ward.

Upon seeing Roxanne's complexion, Peregrine uttered, “What's going on now? How much do you know about her condition?”

Lucian was not well-versed in medical jargon, so he turned to look at Madilyn.

Madilyn instantly took out the results of Roxanne's various checkups since the day before. She then started explaining the data and how Roxanne had been poisoned to Peregrine.

Lucian added, “I've asked the one who poisoned her about this, and he said that he used a mixture of the Four Peculiar Poisons and made Roxanne inhale it over time in the form of essential oil. Once she inhales a certain amount, the poison will start to do its job.”

Peregrine narrowed his eyes as he went through the results.

When he heard Lucian's words, a dubious look crossed his face. “Was she really poisoned by essential oil?”

Lucian nodded in certainty. “He wouldn't dare to lie to me at that time.”
