Chapter 306
Pearl was in stunned surprise. “A month?”
“Hmph! I doubt you can do it. If Blake doesn’t show signs of improvement in that time, how can you
claim to cure him?” Emma scoffed, her skepticism evident.
“A month is too long, and by then, his injuries will be almost healed. Just give me two weeks,’ Pearl
explained calmly.
Emma had planned to expose Pearl’s incompetence, but she found herself gaping in surprise. Two
weeks? Are you kidding me? Are you sure you won’t run away?”
“If I wanted to run, I would have done so when he got hurt,” Pearl retorted, displeased with how Emma
treated her.
“I’m sure a young woman like you doesn’t know how to cure people. While you’re exceptional, don’t
bite off more than you could chew. We should negotiate with a qualified doctor,” Ezra chimed in, also
doubting Pearl’s abilities. “I’ve already contacted a top-notch doctor, and he’ll come to treat Blake once
we’re finished with the negotiation.”
“What doctor?” Pearl wondered if the doctor was as good as her. She had yet to show her skills.
Ezra deliberately revealed Simon’s full name, assuming that Pearl might not know of him. ” His name is
Simon Freeman.”
It was Simon again.
Calmly, Pearl said, “It’s been seven months since Simon’s out to save people. I’m sure he’ll never come
here to save Blake.” Simon wouldn’t come unless Pearl specifically requested his help.
“I’ll bring him here no matter the cost,” Ezra declared, showing his willingness to spare no expense for
the sake of his beloved grandson. novelbin
Amused, Pearl suggested, “Why don’t you call him and ask if he’s willing to come or not?”
Her eagerness pushed Ezra to call Simon and put it on speaker mode to avoid being embarrassed in
front of so many people.
“Hello, is it Mister Simon?” Ezra sounded extremely polite.
‘Alas, you promised not to withdraw a move. What are you doing, Simon?” Simon’s place sounded a
little noisy as if he was arguing with someone.
Simon asked loudly, “Yes, speaking. May I know why you’re calling?”
Ezra felt somewhat awkward but maintained his politeness. “I’m Ezra Jordan. I would like to extend an
invitation for you to treat my grandson. Could you spare the time?”
“No, I’m busy, and I’m currently abroad. I’m afraid I can’t treat your son,” Simon promptly declined.
“Just name your price. I’m willing to pay any amount,” Ezra persisted.
“It’s not about the money… Knight! I have more than I can spend, and I don’t particularly care for
wealth. While it’s impressive that you managed to get my number, I’ve retired from the
profession for a while now and have no desire to return to it.”
Simon made his stance clear, leaving Ezra with a disgruntled expression. As he was about to end the
call, Pearl leaned closer and spoke up, “You’re playing chess again, Simon.”
Stupefied, Simon grinned and responded cheerfully, “Oh, it’s Pearl. What happened? What are you
doing there?”
After declining Ezra’s request, Simon suddenly seemed quite friendly and familiar with Pearl. This left
everyone except Glenn astonished and bewildered.
“That’s not important. Can you come and help treat my cousin? They doubt my abilities.” Pearl
shrugged helplessly.
“How dare they doubt you? You’re my protege, and you’re incredibly clever. I felt like I was. taking
advantage of you when you treated others and mentioned my name… Wait. Your
cousin? Are you a Jordan?”
Naturally, Simon was well aware of the Jordan family’s reputation in Bodgow.
