"Who's this...?" he asked, turning toward Frank feebly as a servant helped him up.
"That's the man who saved your life." Surprisingly, it was Professor Roberts who sided with Frank just then. He was even leveling a look of respect at him and nodding politely, speaking inarticulately but loudly.
"I don't know what's wrong with you people, harassing Mr. Lawrence so much when he saved the patient without holding a grudge. He is as competent as he is mystical, showing his loyalty and reliability. You have certainly changed my opinion on Draconian traditional medicine—what you did was absolutely magical. Would you mind teaching me?" Frank had a better impression of Professor Roberts when he saw the look of genuine respect.

They're stoppingfrom meeting my woman because they want her to marry someone else—it's really not your fault." He then passed Professor Roberts his business card with his contact number. "Your dedication and respect to medicine has my respect—callanytyou need assistance. | can't do much, but I can offer sadvice." "This won't do!" Professor Roberts bellowed, surprising Frank with his single-minded stubbornness. "Let's make this clear right now—you saved the patient, not me. You succeeded where | failed, and that's the truth!"
