An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1281
“Dr. Busch? Is Dr. Busch here?” Everyone immediately gathered around Brooke when they saw him and left Dustin alone. Dustin’s performance earlier might have been impressive, but it was different when compared to Brooke.
After all, Brooke had been famous among the people for many years. His reputation in the community was irreplaceable.
“Dr. Busch! You’ve finally arrived! Harmony Healers was almost in trouble earlier!”
“Yes, that’s right! Someone would have died earlier if not for this doctor here. He saved the reputation of Harmony Healers!”
“Dr. Busch, is this doctor your new apprentice?” The crowd bombarded Brooke with questions, eager to satisfy their curiosity.
Under the relentless questioning, Brooke was completely dumbfounded as soon as he entered. He stood rooted to the floor, confused.
“Everyone, please … calm down.” Brooke raised his hands in an attempt to quiet the crowd. When the noise finally died down, he asked, “What actually happened? Tell me slowly.”
“I’ll do the honors! I was a storyteller at the library!” A man volunteered himself and recounted the incident that happened earlier in an exaggerated manner.
He emphasized how Dustin saved and revived Eleanor and the heroic details. of how Dustin saved the reputation of Harmony Healers.
The way he told the story drew the crowd in. When he finished, most women applauded and looked at him admiringly. His way with words made him attractive to the ladies.
“So that’s what happened.” Brooke nodded swiftly when he heard the story. He walked toward Dustin with a smile. ” Young man, thank you for helping us..
“It’s surprising that you have such amazing skills as a doctor at this young age! After all, a hero can be anyone!”
“You’re too kind, Dr. Busch. It was just a simple technique. Don’t mention it.” Dustin said humbly. “Good, you’re humble and calm. Very good.” Brooke nodded with an approving smile.
Too few young people were studying traditional medicine, and the gifted ones were even rarer. He had been searching for a successor but hadn’t found a suitable one.
Dustin’s appearance gave him hope. Even though he did not see his skills personally, he was sure that this young man before him was extraordinary.
“Dr. Busch, I came to visit with a purpose. May I speak to you in private? Dustin said politely. “Of course, please go upstairs.” Brooke didn’t reject and invited Dustin to the second floor right away.
Harmony Healers was a three-story building. The first level was the clinic, where they would treat patients. Brooke lived on the second level, where he’d also have guests over. The third level was closed to the public.
Dustin followed Brooke to the second level. When he entered the living room, he saw a pretty girl lying on the couch, playing with her phone.
The girl was wearing a t-shirt paired with shorts. She lay there lazily as her long, fair legs swung back and forth. Her slender and fair legs were lovely, with smooth and flawless skin. It was like a piece of perfect artwork.
“Young man, please meet my granddaughter, Harper Busch. She’s quite talented in both traditional and modern medicine.” Brooke said with a smile.
“Nice to meet you, Ms. Busch.” Dustin greeted politely.
