Chapter 228 Arrogant Young Man
Seeing the middle–aged man still wearing a serious expression, Mason had no choice but to say, “All
right, Mr. Gallegos, I understand. Business comes first. Let’s find that Dr. Lund first, and after we’ve
settled the matter, I’ll settle the score with that brat. That should be acceptable, right?”
Only then did Damarion nod.
Mason asked, “By the way, where is Dr. Lund from again?”
“Apricot Hall,”
“Apricot Hall… I hope it’s as miraculous as the legends claim. Otherwise, if we’ve come all this way for
nothing, I swear I’ll tear his clinic down.”
“Mr. Cooper, I must remind you, we came here this time to seek someone’s assistance…”
“I know, I know, I’ll be careful.” Mason spoke impatiently, but he didn’t take it to heart.
He still held the same belief that, as long as he could afford the price, he wasn’t afraid of not being able
to hire people.
Upon seeing his demeanor, Damarion shook his head but didn’t say much. Soon, the two of them
arrived at the Apricot Hall.
Upon seeing an elderly man conducting consultations inside, Mason immediately stepped forward and

recently?”
Duncan was taken aback, then shook his head and said, “No. He’s my master.”
“Ask him to come out immediately!” said Mason.
A hint of displeasure flickered across Duncan’s face. That was largely due to the young man’s overly
assertive tone, which lacked any semblance of a patient seeking medical help. As a result, Duncan’s
voice cooled slightly as he said, “The doctor is not in. Please come back another day!”
“What kind of attitude is that? Can’t you call him or something?” Mason’s brow furrowed abruptly.
Just as he was about to speak, Damarion hastily stopped him. He politely said to Duncan, “Sir, could
you please call your master? We truly have an urgent matter and need the help of Dr. Lund.”
Upon hearing that, Duncan softened his tone, and his countenance relaxed. “I’ll give it a try!”
After dialing Emrys‘ number and having a brief conversation, Duncan turned to the two people and
said, “My master is currently busy. Why don’t you first tell me what the illness is? If it’s urgent, he will
come right away. If it’s not, we can wait a bit, or I can take a look first.”
“Wait? What kind of doctor is this? He’s too arrogant, Tell him that, no matter the cost, we can afford it.
Have him come over immediately!” Mason spoke without restraint, and as a result, his voice was
clearly heard through Duncan’s plione receiver.

After a moment of silence, Emrys‘ voice resonated, “Tell them I’m busy. They shouldn’t wait any
longer.”
“Gentlemen, my master has made it clear that he is not available. He suggests you return from whence
you came. Leave!” said Duncan, without any courtesy, after hanging up the phone.
He was a man of temper who had already retired. Yet, he came out to practice medicine, driven by
curiosity and a quest for knowledge in the field of medicine. He hoped to learn the acupuncture
techniques from Emrys, which could be considered the most fulfilling event of his life.
As for treating the patients, it was secondary.
If the patient’s attitude was sincere, Duncan was always more than happy to help with the treatment.
After all, a doctor’s heart was one of benevolence.
However, if the patient had a bad attitude, Duncan would simply extend a cold hand, pointing outside,

That was especially the case for the inexplicable young man before him. Mason didn’t show a shred of
reverence. From the moment Mason arrived, he displayed an arrogant and domineering demeanor. It
seemed to Mason that as long as he had money, he could point at anyone’s nose and speak loudly.
What irked Duncan the most was that, despite clearly being on the phone with Emrys just moments
ago, Duncan had the audacity to raise his voice and cause a ruckus. It was the epitome of rudeness.
That had already crossed Duncan’s forbidden line.
Duncan had two major taboos. The first was disrespect toward medicine, and the second was
disrespect toward teachers. Anyone who exhibited those two types of behavior was not welcome!
In the world, doctors could generally be divided into two categories. One type was motivated by money,
while the other was influenced by the patient’s attitude. Both Duncan and Emrys belonged to the latter
category. They only cared about whether the patient was genuinely seeking help. If the patient’s heart
wasn’t sincere, what was the point in treating their ailments?
“D*mn old man, such a temper! If we’re in Juxshire, I surely will have killed you!” Fury flickered in
Mason’s eyes.
