The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 316-320
Chapter 316
Elaine Ma's face twisted into a disdainful grimace. "Charlie Wade, shut up, you loser!" she screamed. "Who do you think you are? You have no say in this!"
She glared at Charlie Wade and grumbled, "Stop interfering with Dr. Lynch's treatment. Get out!"
Charlie Wade frowned. He thought, Could Joshua have gotten the pill from Zachary? If so, he must be the one who sold it to Anthony Simmons for five million—that dishonest profiteer!
Jason must have paid a fortune to hire him.
Jason sneered, believing he had the upper hand. "Charlie Wade, you deadbeat. You're good with your mouth, aren't you? There's nothing you can actually do, is there? Just bluffing!"
He snapped his fingers, a thought striking him. "Oh, I get it! You're questioning Dr. Lynch because you don't want Uncle Jacob Wilson to get better!"
"Bluffing?" Charlie Wade retorted. He could withstand Elaine Ma's insults, but not Jason's. "I know Anthony, and I've never heard him say he was cured by this quack."
Jason laughed. "Charlie Wade, you're hilarious! You know Anthony? You might as well say you know the President!"
Joshua, offended by being called an idiot, squinted pompously. "Young man, you're weak, but your mouth is strong! I bet you've never read a single medical textbook! How dare you call me an idiot!"
He pointed arrogantly at Charlie Wade. "Apologize! Or I won't treat your father-in-law!"
Elaine Ma's face drained of color. "Charlie Wade, you want to kill my husband, don't you?!" she shrieked.
Charlie Wade looked at her as if she were insane. Did she just say I want to steal her belongings? Does she think I want her crappy three-room apartment? he thought. This is the biggest joke in the world!
Jason added, "I think Charlie Wade is planning something wicked. Be careful, or he'll make your life miserable!"
Claire Wilson tugged Charlie Wade's arm. "Charlie, let Dr. Lynch try."
Ignoring the commotion, Dr. Lynch grunted coldly, "You'd better get on your knees and apologize, or I won't treat him!"
Just then, an icy voice cut through the air from outside the door. "How dare he make Master Wade kneel before him?"
Chapter 317
Everyone turned towards the door. A smartly dressed middle-aged man entered the ward. Jason and Dr. Lynch's faces turned pale; their mouths gaped open. It was Don Albertt Rhodes, the powerful kingpin of Aurouss Hill's underworld!
Before they could react, more people stormed in—Doris Young, Zeke White, Graham Quinton, Travis Lane, Anthony Simmons, and others. Prominent figures from Aurouss Hill and Lancaster! They went straight to Charlie Wade, bowing deeply. "Master Wade!"
Charlie Wade asked, "Why are you all here?"
Don Albertt replied, "Master Wade, we came as soon as we heard about your father-in-law's accident. We hope you don't mind our intrusion."
Charlie Wade smiled. "Thanks, you're thoughtful."
His casual tone was enough to thrill the VIPs; they visibly trembled with excitement.
Elaine Ma thought, Oh damn! Charlie Wade's deception is getting worse and worse! She didn't believe in his abilities; she knew his past too well. If he were so capable, why has he lived such a poor life all these years?
Jason was astonished, especially seeing Jasmine Moore among the group—the influential daughter of the Moore family! The Grants were insignificant compared to the Moores. Yet, Jasmine was deferential to Charlie Wade!
Jason couldn't understand it. He cleared his throat, blurting, "Miss Moore, why do you call him Master Wade? He's a deadbeat! Have you mistaken him for someone else?"
Jasmine's face darkened. "Shut up! How dare you question Master Wade?"
Graham sneered. "Master Wade is the true dragon, with unbelievable power. How could we mistake him?"
Zeke added, "That's right! Master Wade is highly respected in Aurouss Hill. Who are you to address him by his given name, you bastard?!"
Chapter 318
Don Albertt glared at Jason. "Master Wade is our leader. Disrespecting him is declaring war on us. If you utter another word, I'll break your legs!"
Jason was speechless, his face ashen.
Anthony shouted, "Joshua Lynch, come here!"
Joshua trembled. He knew his "miracle cure" was a lie; with Anthony present, his bluff would be exposed. He approached, head bowed, and greeted, "Master Simmons."
Anthony demanded, "You said you cured me with that pill. Is that true?"
Joshua stammered, "I'm sorry, Master Simmons. I was braggingI didn't do it"
He knew he had boasted about the pill's effects, but he never expected Anthony to appear. He was terrified of Anthony, the president of the Chinese Medicine Association. His career could be ruined.
Anthony wasn't appeased. "You insulted Master Wade. Apologize to him now!"
Joshua resented this. He muttered, "Master Simmons, I lied about your case, but Wade was talking nonsense. He insulted my medicine, so why should I apologize to him?"
Anthony's face darkened. Do you know who made that pill? It was Master Wade!
"What?" Joshua cried. "Charlie Wade made the pill?"
Anthony said coldly, "Master Wade refined a powerful elixir. My old injuries were completely cured by his pill! How dare you question him?"
Joshua, drenched in sweat, stammered, "Master Simmons, I'm sorry! I didn't knowI wouldn't have done it if I knew"
Anthony cut him off. "It's too late! I'll recommend to the health department that they revoke your medical license!"
Joshua's face went pale. He knelt before Charlie Wade, sobbing, "Master Wade, I'm sorry! I lied! I didn't make the pill, I bought it! I didn't know if it could cure quadriplegia! Please forgive me!" He slapped his face repeatedly.
Chapter 319
Elaine Ma and Claire Wilson watched in shock; Jason was even more stunned. Elaine expected the doctor to cure her husband, not apologize to Charlie Wade!
Jason felt humiliated. He couldn't believe Charlie Wade was as powerful as everyone claimed, and refused to admit defeat.
Don Albertt sneered at him and asked Charlie Wade, "Master Wade, what should I do with this Grant kid?"
Charlie Wade said, "It's up to you."
Before Don Albertt could act, Graham spoke up. "Wait, I heard from Luke Marshall that you caused a scene at the car show and offended Master Wade, didn't you?"
"No, II didn't" Jason stammered.
Don Albertt chuckled coldly. "You were messing with Master Wade! You'll pay the price!" He ordered his men, "Get rid of this ignorant bastard!"
Jason, terrified, begged, "Charlie Wade, I'm sorry!"
Charlie Wade smirked. "I'm a loser, why are you asking me for mercy?"
Jason wailed, "Charlie Wade, please! I'm the biggest loser! Spare my life!"
Charlie Wade kicked him aside. "You ignored me before, so I'm stepping on you now! Get lost!" He yelled to Albertt, "What are you waiting for?!"
Albertt's men threw Jason out the window. A series of screams followed.
Claire Wilson covered her mouth; her heart pounded. They were on the third floor! She and Elaine rushed to the window. Jason was alive, lying in the yard, clutching his legs, screaming. Hospital staff rushed to help him.
Claire breathed a sigh of relief. At least Jason wouldn't bother them again.
Amidst the chaos, Charlie Wade quietly approached Anthony, giving him the second pill. "Mr. Simmons, I need your help. You'll treat my father-in-law and give him this pill."
Chapter 320
Charlie Wade had planned to treat his father-in-law himself, but Jason and Dr. Lynch were present, and Elaine would have stopped him. He also worried about explaining the pill's origin. Anthony's presence provided a perfect cover.
Anthony was surprised. "Master Wade, a spinal injury is complex. Are you sure your elixir will work?"
He added apologetically, "Forgive me, Master Wade. I don't mean to question your pill, butit's beyond my understanding"
Charlie Wade said, "Don't worry, this pill can fix the damage."
Anthony exclaimed, "Wow, if your father-in-law is cured, it will be a medical miracle! I wouldn't dare take the credit!"
Charlie Wade grinned. "I don't seek fame. The world will view Chinese medicine differently, and they will respect you and the field, so please don't refuse my request."
Anthony nodded, accepting the pill. "Master Wade, thank you for the opportunity!"
Charlie Wade added, "Oh, only half the pill is needed for spinal injuries. You can keep the rest."
Anthony was shocked. Half a pill for a quadriplegic? And Charlie Wade was giving him the other half?! He was overcome with gratitude.
