His legs had improved even more.
Claire gave him another acupuncture session and updated his prescription before finally announcing she was heading back to the Churchill family.
Baldrick wanted to keep her for lunch, but the butler walked in to announce a visitor.
"Who is it?"
Baldrick couldn't think of anyone who would drop by today.
"It's Achilles," the butler said with a smile.
Achilles?
Baldrick remembered that Achilles had mentioned coming over to check on him.
Mostly, it was because Achilles had heard Baldrick's condition had improved significantly. Unconvinced, he had wanted to see it for himself for a while but hadn't found the time.
Now that his schedule had cleared up, he showed up immediately.
Baldrick didn't turn him away.
Achilles had always been one of his primary doctors. However, ever since Claire took over his treatment, Baldrick hadn't reached out to him.
He wanted to introduce Claire to Achilles. Dane's future wife was studying medicine, and there was always a chance she might cross paths with the renowned doctor in the future.
"Well, bring him in," he ordered.
Following Baldrick's instructions, the butler quickly ushered the guest inside.
Achilles used to be Baldrick's family doctor and had remained his physician ever since.
When he heard Baldrick had gotten much better after seeking treatment in Apex, his first instinct was disbelief.
He had visited for a checkup two months ago, making this a follow-up appointment.
If the older man's condition was truly improving without any relapses, Achilles intended to meet the doctor responsible for the miracle.
Anyone capable of curing Baldrick had to possess an incredibly high level of medical expertise.
Upon entering, Achilles immediately greeted Baldrick.
Their families went way back, so Achilles felt completely at ease.
Noticing Dane was also present, he asked with a smile, "Dane, aren't you heading to the office today?"
"I'll be leaving shortly," Dane replied.
