Chapter 285
“Don’t worry. I won’t joke about this. If I tell you I can, that means I’m confident!” Severin said indifferently.
Madam Jodie’s problem existed because her nerves were damaged. It was not a big deal to Severin. However, a normal doctor surely could not treat this sort of case.
It was different for Severin because he had learned many skills from the old wacko. Thus, Madam Jodie’s problem was a small case from Severin’s perception.
“Then-then Mister Severin, please fix my mother’s legs!” Harvin was thrilled to see Severin being so confident.
“Mister Severin, do I really have the chance to stand up again?” Jodie looked at Severin with excitement, even her voice was trembling.
Ten years. She had been stuck in a wheelchair for ten years. She did not want to continue living as a disabled person where someone must be there to take care of her all the time. None of the servants at home dared to mistreat her due to her identity and status but she did not want to be a burden to her family.
Severin nodded. “Don’t worry. It’s not going to be a problem!”
Stanley had already placed the medical box on the ground. He was just taking in a deep breath when he was shocked by what Severin said.
“Excuse me, everyone. Please allow me to talk with my brother-in-law for a while!” Severin smiled awkwardly and pulled Severin to the other side.
When their distance was far enough, Stanley said, “Severin! Are you mad? I know you know a little medical information but that doesn’t mean you can talk nonsense! It had been ten years since Madam Jodie had the accident. No doctors were able to fix her and said her legs were a lost cause! How are you going to fix them? It’s good enough if you can fix her migraine. Why do you want to be such a poser?”
Severin saw how nervous Stanley was. He said, “Look at what a chicken you are. If I can’t treat it, do you think I dare to call myself a miracle doctor?”
Stanley was speechless. “Are you an idiot? Do you think you are better than those specialists in the hospital? It’s really good enough that you can try to fix common illnesses. If you promise them now and you failed to keep your end of the bargain, the Zelankos are not going to be happy. At least, you should say you are just going to try to fix them. Why do you want to be so certain that you can fix them?”
The more Stanley talked, the angrier he became. “Do you know the bigger expectation, the bigger disappointment? You’re going to have a lot of trouble if you are certain you can fix it but you can’t! They will think you are fooling them!”
“Shut up!” Severin reprimanded with a cold face and scared Stanley.
He could not be bothered to deal with Stanley anymore as he thought Stanley was nothing but a chicken. He returned to the Zelankos and said, “Mister Harvin, don’t you worry. I promise I’m going to fix Madam Jodie’s legs. Within two hours, she will be walking steadily. If I can’t do it, then you can kill my assistant. I’m a man of my word!”
