Chapter 47 Compassionate But Firm
“What are you talking about, Dr. Faraday? I–
Lincoln cut her off by hanging up the phone, so she couldn’t even find out what was going on. Caylie
tried calling back immediately, but Lincoln had switched his phone off, and Emrys wasn’t answering her
calls either.
Caylie began to panic and drove all the way over to jadeborough as fast as she could.
Oh, no. Please don’t let anything happen!
After switching his phone off, Lincoln turned toward Emrys and said. “You siblings brought this upon
yourselves. I’m quitting my job here at Apricot Hall. Let’s see how you two keep this business running
after I’m gone!”
He then stormed out of the front door with his two mentees following behind him.
People chose to visit Apricot Hall mainly because of Lincoln’s reputation.
Since he was gone, the patients decided to leave as well.
They all shot Emrys furious glances as they walked out of there,

They had been waiting in line for a really long time, so having to leave because of Emrys causing a
scene did not sit well with them.
Seeing as the patients were all leaving, the woman picked up her baby and was about to leave as well.
Emrys quickly ran after her and said. “Your daughter is in critical condition, maam! We cannot delay her
treatment any longer!”
To his surprise, the woman turned around and yelled at him. “Shut up! My daughter might’ve been
cured long ago if it weren’t for you wasting all of our time! Please leave me and my daughter alone!
You’ve caused enough dama
as is! Go bother someone else instead!”
After a brief pause, Emrys expression grew cold as he said, “I will only say this once. Your daughter will
die for sure if you feed her that White Tiger Decoction. It’s up to you whether you believe it or not.”
Emrys felt bad for the little girl, but he knew that kindness would not necessarily be met with kindness.
The old friar had often told me that medical practitioners would need to stand firm on their principles
while being compassionate. I didn’t understand it back then, but I do now. I’m the Empyrean Lord,
whose name strikes terror all over the world, and yet, it took me so long to figure out such a simple
theory. As for that little

girl… Well, I’ll let fate decide what happens to her.
With that in mind, Emrys let out a sigh and made his way back into Apricot Hall.
“You’re nuts!” the woman shouted and left with her daughter in her arms.
She had only taken a few steps out the door when her daughter said weakly, “I’m cold, Mom…”
Swoosh!
The next thing she knew, all traces of heat seemed to disappear from her daughter’s b*dy, and her skin
became as cold as ice.
As the heat energy on the surface of her skin had completely disappeared, the cold energy inside her
came surging to the surface.

It really is Cold Syndrome! That young doctor was right all along!
The woman then stumbled back into Apricot Hall and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Doctor! I’m sorry
for doubting you carlier! My daughter really is sick with Cold Syndrome! I should’ve listened to you! Will
you please save her?”
This time, however, Emrys was not in a hurry to treat her daughter like earlier. “I won’t treat her unless I
see the sincerity in your request.”
The woman broke down in tears when she realized that Emrys was punishing her for doubting him just
now. She then dropped to her knees and begged while sobbing. “I’m sorry. doctor! I really am! I was
ignorant and chose to put my faith in the wrong person! Will you please save my daughter? Nancy is
still so young! She didn’t do anything wrong!”
Emrys frowned slightly and let out a groan before saying. “All right, then… I’ll do what I can to save
your daughter.”
It’s as the woman said. Her daughter didn’t do anything wrong, so she should not have to suffer
because of her mother’s mistakes. Besides, this woman probably only lashed out at me because she
loves her daughter, so I suppose I can forgive her
