Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1043

Zuko regained his composure and glanced at Fred, scoffing slightly. "Didn't you ask me if you're okay? I was just telling the truth..."

"Okay, okay!" Fred was sweating nervously. "Um... Zeke, can we talk about my illness alone?"

Zuko considered it for a moment and stood up. He followed Fred to his car, which was parked at the entrance of the alley. He had brought a needle with him.

Zuko repeated everything he had discovered from checking Fred's pulse inside the car.

After listening, Fred nodded in understanding.

In truth, before coming to Zuko, Fred had visited a holistic doctor. He had sought Zuko out to verify if the rumors about his abilities were true. Additionally, Fred had heard that the president of the Southeast Aciatic Medical Association doted on his grandson. Not only had he passed on his knighthood to him, but he had also taught him everything about holistic healing...

Fred wanted to test whether Zeke was truly Zuko!

As he listened to Zuko naming his illness and explaining its causes, Fred was taken aback. He couldn't believe that everything Zuko said aligned perfectly with the diagnosis from the holistic doctor he had seen, despite Zuko being so young!

If Zuko hadn't inherited his knowledge from somewhere, which young holistic doctor could possess such abilities?

Fred's frown deepened, and doubt grew in his eyes.

He then asked in a testing manner, "Zeke, what should I do about this?"

"Don't always be angry, and take care of your health. Eat well, sleep better, and you should recover," Zuko replied with a smirk. Suddenly, he recalled a pill from Irwin Pharmaceuticals in Southeast Aciatic.

Rowan used to send them to Zephyr from time to time. When Zuko was young, he didn't recall seeing them, but as he grew older, the packages from Southeast Aciatic became more frequent. His father also started throwing away the pills more often.

Zephyr would always exclaim, "Why would I need these?" and then instruct the maids to dispose of them as far away as possible.

Zuko sighed. He wasted so much good stuff back then! His father did not need them, but many men in the world did, such as the person in front of him.

Zuko looked at Fred and noticed that he had been staring at the box with the needle in his pocket.

Zuko was alert and shoved the box deeper into his pocket subtly.

"Mr. Grist, in reality, there are many things you should let go of. 80% of illnesses are caused by emotions," Zuko calmly stated.

Fred scoffed. "Ha! I'd like to be happy too! I've been shouldering all the burdens in the family for years. I've put in so much effort, and that damned girl Violet has ruined everything! Tell me, how can I not be mad and hurt my liver?"

Zuko's eyes flickered with complexity as he replied in his deep voice, "Since you feel it's unfair, try doing something about it. Mr. Grist, you're superior to Violet in terms of connections and abilities, so why are you tormenting yourself?"

Fred's eyes lit up. "Zeke, you're not just a simple truck driver to be so wise!"

"But I'm just an ordinary man." Zuko smiled. "To my Lina, I'm just a regular husband. I have weaknesses and impulses like any normal person... Mr. Grist, do you understand what I'm trying to say?"

Fred's heart tightened. Was Zuko referring to the fact that if Fred crossed his boundaries, Zuko would respond with "impulse" without hesitation, even resorting to violence?
