Many modern medicine practitioners looked down on alternative medicine, but Woody would never speak ill of modern medicine.
In his opinion, the skills of different doctors might differ, but all forms of medicine were the same. They were created to save lives. There was no need to compare them with each other.
Kevin asked with a frown, “What should I do, then?”
“Pull yourself together. Treat your job properly and more passionately. Focus your efforts on practicing medicine. Help more people and save more lives. That’s how a doctor should be.”
Kevin was taken aback. It seemed like he had been enlightened.
He nodded deeply toward Woody and said sincerely, “Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Henderson. I know what I must do now. Thank you for your generosity. I’ll be taking my leave.”
After that, Kevin was no longer the haughty and arrogant man he used to be. He focused his efforts on saving lives and medical research.
In the end, he became a truly renowned specialist who was known internationally. Helen looked at Woody with admiration. She was totally impressed by him.
Woody would have forced the others to submit with his skills, but he chose to talk sense into Kevin. It was hard to find someone with such good character.
“I hope all of you will keep what happened here today a secret.”
Helen said to Dwayne and the others, ” No one must know that my father had woken up. Tell everyone that he’s still in a coma, understand?”
She wanted the culprit to lower their guard. They might just show themselves if they thought they had succeeded.
Judging from Helen’s determined expression, it was clear that it wasn’t the first time she had done something like this.
Dwayne nodded nervously. ”
Understood, Ms. Cartwright. We’ll keep our mouths shut.”
They didn’t really want others to know about this humiliating incident, and with Helen’s orders, none of them would dare to talk about it.
After they left, Helen said respectfully, “I have no way of repaying you for saving my father’s life. I wish to organize a charity banquet in your honor. That way, I can collect more donations as thanks for your help.
“Next Monday, my father will also show himself as a completely new person. He will be able to intimidate those plotting against him and catch them off guard.”
Woody asked, “Do you know who the culprit is?”
Helen nodded. “I have a good idea. My father suddenly went on the straight and narrow. He didn’t allow illegal businesses to operate anymore. That must have affected many people’s bottom line.
“Their threats fell on empty ears, so they went with an underhanded tactic. As soon as my father died, they would be able to seize control again.”
Woody nodded. “I’ll agree to it.”
News quickly traveled to Dickson’s ears.
“Great news, Pamela! The Cartwright family will be organizing a charity banquet. They will also be announcing the list of best partners. This is a great opportunity for us!”
If they got what they wanted, their family’s business would be able to double their profits or more within a year.
“This is a very important matter. You have to focus on preparing for it. Failure is not an option.”
Pamela’s eyes lit up, but they quickly darkened again. “But I promised to stay here and take care of Mom and Brutus.”
Trudy, who was still groaning a second ago, quickly became excited. She sat up abruptly and yelled, “We’ll survive. You don’t have to stay here. This opportunity only comes once a year. You have to go. We’ll be fine.”
