After theother party has consumed the poison, we‘ll have to mix and match from among the thousand herbsonce more to create an antidote. Of course, we‘re allowed to use acupuncture and acupoint pressuretherapeutic means to release the toxins.”
“Mhm.”
Jay nodded.
Jonathan continued, “To ensure the impartiality of the competition, I‘ll leave the preparation of the herbsto Herbal Biotech.”

James shook his head. If he had known what Jonathan was up to, he would not have remained sopassive.
“Mr. Caden, who among them is the better doctor?”
Curious, Thea asked.
“Dr. Fallon hasn‘t suffered defeat in twenty years. However, Jonathan of Universal Hospital ischallenging him in such a way even though he knows that he‘s Asclepius. He‘s so full of confidence.Who exactly is he?”
“We‘ll see,” James said.
Everything would be revealed if they let things play out a little longer.
