Chapter 229 Failed Again And Again
Just moments ago, at the cafe, Mason had been rejected by Ninette, which had already put him in a foul mood. Thus, being treated with such cold indifference by Duncan only added fuel to his irritation. He was so infuriated that he felt like smashing Apricot Hall to pieces.
Damarion then said, “Please calm down, sir. Mr. Cooper is impulsive and has offended you and your master. Please do not take it to heart…
“Get out, get out, get out!” Duncan exclaimed, as if shooing away a fly.
Damarion had no choice but to pull Mason away, deciding to return once Duncan’s anger had subsided.
After leaving Apricot Hall, Mason wore a disgruntled expression and said, “Mr. Gallegos, he’s just a lousy doctor. Why do we need to be so polite to him? If we smash up Apricot Hall, I refuse to believe that the so–called miracle doctor wouldn’t show up.”
Damarion scolded, “Mr. Cooper, remember, we are here to ask for someone’s help. If you dare to act recklessly again, don’t blame me for punishing you on behalf of your grandfather.”
Damarion appeared to be Mason’s b*dyguard, but in reality, his status was much higher. After all, he was a martial artist. His presence was not merely to protect Mason. More importantly, he was there to restrain Mason’s actions, to prevent him from acting impulsively and causing trouble.
Looking back, it seemed like the right decision for him to join Mason. If Mason was left to his own devices, there was a chance that they would never get to meet Emrys in their lifetime.
“All right, all right, I promise to keep my mouth shut next time!” said Mason.
The following day, the two of them returned to the Apricot Hall, yet they still hadn’t encountered the legendary Dr. Lund.
Damarion said to Duncan, “Sir, if your master arrives, could you please help make a phone call? Thank you.”
He left a business card on the consultation desk.
Duncan did not pay him any attention.
That infuriated Mason even more.
He didn’t utter a single word, yet Duncan maintained an indifferent demeanor. He truly held a grudge.
On the third day, the two visited again, only to receive the same response that Dr. Lund was not in. With no other choice, they left in disappointment.
That time, even Damarion was getting a bit impatient, feeling as if Emrys was deliberately playing games with them.
Not long after they had left, Emrys arrived, accompanied by the couple, Richard and Lydia.

It was once again the day to give Richard his acupuncture treatment.
After successfully administering the acupuncture to Richard, Emrys asked Duncan, “Have those two still not given up?”
Back when Emrys was on the phone with Duncan, he had already recognized Mason’s voice from the receiver. In an instant, he understood what was going on. It turned out that Mason had come to Jadeborough for medical treatment.
Although Emrys didn’t know who Mason was seeking medical help for, Emrys couldn’t help but praise the latter for being so dedicated. Despite coming to seek medical help, Mason didn’t forget to meet with an old friend from his university days before doing so.
If the patient who was waiting for treatment had known about that matter, they would have undoubtedly been profoundly moved.
Duncan replied. “They came every day, but I paid them no mind. Those who dare to disrespect you, I certainly wouldn’t show them any kindness. Humph!” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He gave a rather haughty huff.
Emrys couldn’t help but chuckle. Suddenly, he caught sight of a business card on the consultation desk and asked. “Is this the card they left behind?”
“Yes, I had forgotten to throw it away,” answered Duncan.
Duncan was about to throw away the business card when he heard Emrys say, “Give them a call and. have them come over!”
“Are you planning to step in and help them, Master Lund?”
“Let’s see how things go.”
Duncan himself had some distaste for those two, mainly directed at the young man who lacked manners. However, since Emrys had spoken, he had no choice but to comply. He made a call to them, “Dr. Lund is willing to meet you.”
Mason and Damarion quickly arrived.
From a distance, Mason could see a familiar figure standing at the entrance of Apricot Hall.
Mason’s pupils slightly contracted, and then he walked forward with a smirk. “Oh, isn’t this the madman who calls himself Empyrean Lord? What are you doing standing at the entrance of Apricot Hall? Could it be that you’ve contracted some unspeakable disease?”
“Indeed. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. You know, my girlfriend is so beautiful that I just can’t control myself. If it happens too frequently, it can easily le
