Chapter 1662 Get Her To Introduce You

Shawn was merely trying his luck when he went to ask Peregrine for his help.
Shawn was merely trying his luck when he went to ask Peregrine for his help.

When Peregrine was severely injured some time ago, it was the Crawford family who had helped and bore the medical expenses for him and his disciples. The elderly man owed them a debt of gratitude.

When Alister Crawford fell seriously ill years later, the Crawfords invited Peregrine out of seclusion to treat him.

In other words, the Crawfords and Peregrine had called it quits.

Shawn had gone to look for Peregrine, not knowing if he would agree to come out of seclusion.

Fortunately, the elderly man still appreciated the kindness of the Crawford family.

When Shawn arrived at his residence and expressed his intentions, Peregrine only hesitated for a moment before agreeing to his request.

“Back then, the Crawford family saved so many of my disciples. Every life they had saved was a debt I owed. When you asked me to save another person's life, I've no reason to refuse your request! I'll do it!” That had been Peregrine's response.

He wasted no time and joined Shawn on their way to the airport, disregarding the need to pack his belongings.

Even Shawn found it hard to believe how smoothly everything went.

“How is Old Mr. Queen doing?” After asking about the Crawford family's current situation and learning that Alister was in the pink of health, Peregrine turned to Frieda, simply asking out of concern for an old friend.

Frieda replied respectfully, “My grandfather also fell ill recently, but he has just recovered. Do you have the time to visit him and provide treatment for him once more?”



















Frieda replied respectfully, “My grandfather also fell ill recently, but he has just recovered. Do you have the time to visit him and provide treatment for him once more?”

She was trying to get in his good books.

However, Peregrine was not buying it. “It's good that he has recovered. Someone as kind as him will get through anything. I'm only good at pharmacology, so I won't be of great help to him. His children and grandchildren should take good care of him instead.”

Sensing Frieda's attempt to flatter him, Peregrine closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and drifted off to sleep after uttering those words.

Frieda was left in a state of awkward silence.

None of them uttered a single word throughout the journey.

An hour later, the car they traveled in slowly came to a halt at the entrance of a mansion in the suburbs.

Shawn woke Peregrine up in a low voice. “I didn't take you to the city because I know you appreciate a peaceful environment. This mansion has everything you need, so please make yourself at home.”

Peregrine remained silent and simply nodded his head in response. He straightened his clothing with a quick pat before gracefully stepping out of the car.






















Frieda and Shawn followed behind.

Frieda's face turned grim after Peregrine rejected her twice.

She had no idea what skills he possessed but felt the elderly man had a more inflated ego than her grandfather. What's so great about this man anyway? He better not make a fool of himself later.

“Old Mr. Lomax holds an esteemed position in the medical field, so it's understandable for him to exude a certain level of confidence,” Shawn said in consolation despite feeling displeased by her behavior.

Hearing his words, Frieda forced a smile.

Once they arrived at the mansion, Shawn arranged for Peregrine to have breakfast and rest before discussing the next course of action.

“Old Mr. Lomax, we can't delay any longer as the patient's condition is not optimistic. But since I'm not convenient to appear in person, may I get Ms. Queen to introduce you instead?” Shawn asked for Peregrine's consent respectfully.

The elderly man nodded without expressing any opinion.

Peregrine arrived with a clear intention to treat the patient and was not concerned about who would introduce him later.

Seeing Peregrine nod in agreement, Shawn gave Frieda a few additional instructions before sending her back to the Queen family to explain the situation.
