Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 3314

His face was full of wrinkles and only looked somewhat similar to the portrait Audrey had drawn of him from memory. It was no wonder Julian had not been able to find him. Audrey had not been able to remember what he looked like very clearly, so although the portrait was lifelike and drawn well, it was of no use since he was drawn in the wrong likeness. Was he Tiara’s outstanding assistant?

“May I know your names?”

“That’s not important. It’s been decades since anyone asked for our names, so we don’t quite remember them anymore,” the legendary doctor said. “You can just call me Doc. Mr. Stone, I’ve been a doctor for decades and have been labeled ‘the genius doctor’ among others. Lilian Carden is my disciple. You must have heard of her.”

He introduced himself first. At Clive’s age, it was very unlikely for him to know of the legendary doctor, but he must have heard of his disciple Dr. Carden, who successfully treated Camryn’s eyes.

“Mr. Stone, we don’t like beating around the bush either. We saved this man a few decades ago. At the time, he was being pursued by a bunch of assassins and was injured and poisoned. He was in such a bad state that if he hadn’t been lucky enough to be saved by us, he would have died a long time ago.

“His condition only slowly took a turn for the better after I treated him, but he still suffers from the aftereffects. He had to take a fair amount of medicine every day to live till today. And during the time we saved him, he was very defensive toward us and refused to say anything.

“Silver sent his men out for information and it took a long time before we finally managed to learn that he was actually the Fisher matriarch’s most trusted and capable assistant in Jensburg. I won’t go into too much detail about that, I assume you know the Fisher family rules.

“It’s not that he doesn’t want to avenge his master. He doesn’t have the wherewithal to do so. The current matriarch is a vicious but capable woman who put in a lot of effort to take that seat.
