The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power
Chapter 755 Did the Director Give You a Hard Time?

In a previous encounter, he witnessed Baron's henchmen coming to replace Kingsley.

Now, hearing the conversation between Kingsley and Cassius, he was completely convinced that Kingsley was a "ruthless" figure in the underworld. Amid Jude's trembling and torment, Alice walked in.

Upon seeing Alice, Jude rushed forward as if seeing a savior. "Dr. Kramer, you finally came! This patient will be under your care!"

With that, he turned to Kingsley. "Mr. Nicholson, I have other patients to treat, so... I won't stay here with you..."

Kingsley nodded in response. "Go ahead, attend to your duties."

With his permission, Jude felt like he had been granted amnesty and left in a hurry.

He was afraid that these two underworld figures might silence him forever for hearing too much.

"What brings you here, Kingsley?" Alice walked up and asked, "Is this patient... your friend?"

Kingsley stood up and smiled "Yes, she's the wife of my friend. She has a hereditary heart condition, so I brought her here specifically for you, our esteemed healer, to diagnose."

"Pfft! Me? An esteemed healer?" Alice's gloom disappeared instantly after hearing her brother's familiar self-deprecating humor.

She chuckled and said, "You're the renowned Dr. Nicholson! Is there any illness you can't treat?"

"Mainly... I'm concerned about potential cardiac abnormalities that might require surgery," Kingsley explained. "After all, ancient healing methods aren't omnipotent. Many cases still require surgical intervention."

Alice nodded in agreement. "For conditions like valve replacement or atrial septal defect, surgery is indeed necessary."

She then turned to Shannon lying on the bed and asked, "Have you undergone any previous examinations? What did the doctors say?"

"I've undergone all the possible tests, but no doctor could pinpoint the issue," Shannon weakly responded. "They only mentioned that the causes of heart disease are extremely complex and hard to diagnose..."

Alice turned serious, and she murmured, "Your problem is quite similar to Old Mrs. Fox's next door..."

Mentioning Helen, Alice recalled Matt's threat and sighed involuntarily, causing Cassius to freeze in response. He asked with a quivering voice, "Dr. Kramer, can... can my wife's illness still be treated?" Alice snapped back to reality. "Here's what we'll do. I'll personally conduct a more detailed examination of her. If we still can't replace the specific cause, we might need to have her admitted for recuperation, just like Old Mrs. Fox in Room 11."

Then, she reassured, "Coincidentally, I'm to devise a treatment plan for Old Mrs. Fox during this period. It might yield positive results."

Thankful for Alice's words, Cassius expressed, "Thank you so much for your efforts, Dr. Kramer! I will certainly show my gratitude generously if you can cure my wife's illness."

Alice waved her hand. "That won't be necessary. Treating the sick and saving lives is my duty."

Meanwhile, Kingsley, standing aside, noticed the distress laced in Alice's expression. Combined with the fact that she had been summoned to the director's office, Kingsley frowned. "Alice, why would you suddenly need to develop a treatment plan for Old Mrs. Fox? Did the new director give you a hard time?"

"No, not at all!" Alice hastily shook her head. "Old Mrs. Fox has been hospitalized for quite some time, and we must present a practical and effective plan. How could that be considered giving me a hard time?"

She didn't mention the details of Felix and Matt's intimidation.

In her mind, Felix and Matt were influential figures with both wealth and power.

She was extremely concerned that if she revealed it to Kingsley, he would impulsively seek justice for her, which would further offend the two business tycoons.

Seeing Kingsley about to inquire further, Alice hurriedly turned to Shannon and said, "It's getting late. Shall we proceed with the examination now?"
