Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Clarence did not say more. He simply asked James to sit down, preparing to start his treatment.

Suddenly, Belle and Melody walked into Thirteen Hall with an elderly man, looking to be in his sixties. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

“Melody, Belle? What are you doing here?” Clarence was a little surprised.

Belle looked contemptuous. “What’s the matter? You opened a clinic across from Humanity Hall to rob us of customers, but you won’t allow us to challenge you?”

“Challenge?” Clarence was stunned.

Melody nodded with amusement. “Yes! A challenge. What’s the matter, Master Howard? Are you afraid to agree to a challenge?”

The rich men around them instantly had their interests piqued.

“Challenge?”

“This is going to be a good show!” 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

“Is the old man... Master Williams?”

“It’s really Master Williams. Master Williams cured my wife’s infertility!”

“Master Williams cured my mom’s illness too!”

“Why is Master Williams challenging Clarence? Will he even agree to it?”

Everyone was discussing the challenge that had just been proposed.

Clarence knew Master Williams too. He was the chief practitioner at Peony’s clinic, and he had spectacular medical skills.

If Master Williams had not owed Peony a favor, with his incredible skills, countless dignitaries would have been bursting through his door if he had opened a clinic.

Belle looked at Clarence with amusement. “Clarence, I wasn’t expecting you to do something like this!

“Just say it straight to our faces if you have a problem with the Murphy family. Do you have to resort to such a sly trick?”

Melody sneered and said, “Humanity Hall is a product of Mom’s hard work. What do you plan to do by opening a clinic across from it?”

Clarence knew the two of them had misunderstood the situation.

Jackson had given him the clinic. Clarence had not been expecting the clinic either!

Clarence definitely had also not been expecting Jackson to gift him a clinic right across from Peony’s Humanity Hall.

“I didn’t...” Clarence started to explain.

Belle roared, “That’s enough! You don’t have to explain. Will you take on the challenge or not?”

Clarence frowned at Belle’s aggressiveness. He was no pushover.

Not to mention, Thirteen Hall was open for business for the first time today. Who would come to Thirteen Hall if he dared not take on other people’s challenges?

Belle and Melody’s plan was to embarrass Clarence on day one!

Even if Thirteen Hall was open for business after today, who would come to see him?

If Master Williams beat Clarence today, it would be an advertisement for Humanity Hall as well as an insult to Clarence’s Thirteen Hall.

They had no intention of giving Clarence a chance to succeed!

After thinking everything through, Clarence nodded. “Okay!”

“Good!”

Belle and Melody looked at each other, both seeing a glint of success in the other’s eyes.

Belle continued, “I must say, a challenge like this is too boring!”

“Why don’t we add some stakes to it?”

“What stakes?” Clarence sounded calm.

Belle smiled like she had something up her sleeve. “If Master Williams wins, your clinic’s ours!”

“What if Master Williams loses?” Clarence looked at Belle.

“Haha!” Belle shook her head in amusement. “Clarence, do you really think you’ll beat Master Williams?”

“Young man, I’ve been in the traditional medicine industry for nearly 50 years. If I lose to you, I’m willing to be your apprentice and fill prescriptions for you!” Master Williams snorted softly. He felt like Clarence’s words were an insult to him!

Lose to Clarence?

No way!

Maybe somewhere else in the country, there were people more accomplished in traditional medicine than Master Williams.

However, there was no way one of those people was Clarence.

‘How dare this immature and inexperienced brat challenge my medical skills?’

Belle and Melody did not stop Master Williams.

They also believed that there was no way Master Williams would lose.

They were going to get an extra clinic, and they did not even have to lift a finger!

The clinic was at least five thousand and three hundred square feet, so based on Mediterranean City’s land prices, it was worth at least two hundred million dollars!

They had hit the jackpot!

They could now buy all the sports cars, coats, jewelry, designer bags, and premium cosmetics they had ever dreamed of!

Just as Belle and Melody were fantasizing about their unrealistic daydreams, Clarence pointed at James.

“This is my clinic’s first patient. He has had seventeen years of rheumatism in both legs! We’ll each handle one leg, and whoever can cure him wins!”

The expression on James’ face was a little grim.

An expert calligrapher like him was now just a tool for a competition?

However, James was not mad.

Clarence had detailed his struggle with rheumatism so easily and concisely before this.

Master Williams was famous in Mediterranean City and was usually very hard to get a consultation with.

With these two willing to treat his rheumatism, James decided to allow them to try.

“Okay!” Master Williams nodded slightly and walked up to James. He observed James, listened to his breathing, asked him a few questions, and felt his pulse.

Then he went back to Humanity Hall, grabbed some medicine, and started to boil it in front of everyone.

Clarence was standing by indifferently, quietly waiting.

“Aren’t you going to do something?” Master Williams looked at Clarence strangely.

Clarence smiled. “There’s no rush.”

“Hmph!”

Master Williams snorted coldly and continued boiling the medicine.

Crack!

With a clap of thunder, it began to rain all of a sudden.

James’ expression instantly turned very grim, a layer of sweat quickly coating his forehead. The rain had started to fall, and his rheumatism had struck him once again!

Both his knees instantly started to feel like countless ants were gnawing on them. The pain was unbearable.

“Alright, drink this medicine.”

Master Williams got up slowly and poured out a bowl of medicine for James.

Without a hint of hesitation, James downed it. After about five minutes, his legs grew warm and the pain all faded!

“Huh? It no longer hurts.” James was overjoyed.

Master Williams said casually, “Your illness isn’t too serious. I’ll give you some medicine for a month, and you’ll be fine after that.”

“That’s great. If I had known it was that simple to cure, I would’ve sought out traditional medicine a long time ago!” James regretted his past decisions.

He used to take painkillers for the rheumatism pain in his legs.

If he had known it would be so simple to treat, why suffer for more than a decade?

“Hmph! See that, Clarence? You’ve lost!” Belle sounded like she had anticipated this outcome.
