Chapter 839
Quentin narrowed his eyes and asked, “Are you sure Ken Swanson isn’t in cahoots with his brother?”
Melody Fox quickly vouched for Ken Swanson.
“Master, I can swear to God that Ken Swanson and Ulric Swanson are definitely not the same kind of people. He’s just like us. He can’t wait to get rid of Jennie Taylor and Ulric Swanson.”
Quentin Parker pursed his lips and said, “I thought so too. You’ve known from me since you were young how dangerous malicious doctors are. If he was that kind of person, the two of you wouldn’t have gotten together. Therefore, in front of the Special Task Force, I vouched for your husband. The people of Floassian restaurant will only keep an eye on Ulric Swanson in the future, not Ken Swanson.”
Melody Fox’s eyes lit up. He said gratefully, “Thank you, Master…”
“Alright, why are we thanking each other? But if it’s possible, I need you and Ken Swanson to cooperate with the Special Task Force and gather concrete evidence that he and Jennie Taylor are working together.”
“No problem. We’ve always been collecting such evidence. Unfortunately, Ulric Swanson is too careful. We haven’t made any progress yet.”
“There’s no hurry. As the saying goes, you can’t eat hot tofu if you’re impatient. As long as you guarantee your safety, you can slowly collect them. We’ll think of a way over there. Oh, right, there’s another private matter that I need your help with.”
“Why are you being so polite with me? Just tell me what you need me to do.”
“I’m living in Herbathrive’s staff dormitory now. It’s close to Herbathrive, but the Special Task Force’s people often need to look for me. If I’m bumped into by Herbathrive’s staff, it won’t be easy to explain. That’s why I want you to buy me a villa. I don’t want a suite. I want a villa that’s safer and more private. It’s also exquisitely decorated. It’s the kind that can be moved in with bags. The price isn’t a problem.”
“Master, what are you talking about? Why would I ask you to pay? I’ll buy it. I guarantee that I’ll buy something that suits your taste.”
Quentin Parker was very determined.
“It’s not like I can’t afford this bit of money. Don’t fight with me over this bit of money. In the future, when I’m too old to walk, you’ll be filial to me.”
Melody Fox could only agree. “Alright.”
“By the way, the bank card I’ve asked Colin Herbert to give to you, use that card to pay. You know the password. It’s the day you became my disciple.”
Melody Fox nodded repeatedly, but in her heart, she was certain that Quentin Parker’s money was definitely not enough to buy a house.
After all, her master had lived in seclusion in the mountains for so many years. The current house price of Silverlake was already a deterrent price compared to decades ago. Moreover, his master wanted a single villa.
However, she did not intend to use Quentin Parker’s money.
However, since her master had said so, she would just symbolically ask the salesperson to deduct more than $100, 000 when the time came.
However, she did not know if her master had more than $100, 000 in his bank card…
“I understand, Master. Coincidentally, I’m free now. I’ll do it right away. I’ll try to let you stay there tomorrow and the day after.”
“Go on.”
Quentin Parker poured himself a glass of water and drank it slowly.
Coincidentally, David Marrow rushed over.
“Doctor Mu, I’ve finally found you. Someone has registered for your consultation.”
Quentin stood up slowly. “That person has good taste. Let’s go!”
Melody Fox could not help but smile when he saw Quentin Parker pretending to be calm but actually in a hurry. In the eyes of outsiders, his master was Herbathrive’s new doctor, so everyone preferred to register as an old doctor. As a godly doctor, he had yet to see a patient.
Although her master did not say it, he actually hoped that someone would look for him to treat his illness, right?
After all, it was quite uncomfortable to have nothing to show off.
Sure enough, just as Melody Fox had predicted, Quentin Parker came to the consultation room and sat down. Seeing that the patient had not come up yet, he could not wait to ask David Marrow about the patient’s symptoms. David Marrow happened to know the patient’s symptoms, so he said truthfully, “This patient’s symptoms are very strange. His stomach is harder than a rock, and there’s water in his umbilical cord…”
After David Marrow finished speaking, Quentin picked up the medical prescription and wrote it down. As he wrote, he muttered, “It’s better to use the Cang Shu to make a thick soup and wash it with the Cang Shu for two copper coins, musk for two cents, boiling water to mix it…”
David Marrow looked down and saw that not only did Quentin Parker write the prescription, but he also wrote the usage carefully.
He could not help but be stunned.
“You haven’t even met the patient and you’ve already written a prescription?”
“Didn’t you already describe it to me? The patient’s abdomen is as hard as iron and stone. Water comes out of the navel and transforms into the form of an insect. It wraps around the body and bites. The pain is unbearable, and it can’t be swept away… This is a classic case of abdominal sturdiness. After knowing the symptoms, just prescribe the appropriate medicine. It doesn’t matter if you see it or not.”
“Yes…”
David Marrow took the prescription and went down.
The patients who received the prescription were dumbfounded.
“Dr. Marrow, are you sure you’re not joking with me?”
“I’m sure of it. The medicine that Doctor Mu prescribed will definitely cure your illness! If it still doesn’t work, come and look for me directly. I’ll personally compensate you double the money you used to spend in our Herbathrive!”
David Marrow was the only employee in Herbathrive who knew Quentin Parker’s identity. Naturally, he dared to guarantee this.
The patient had already seen several doctors in Herbathrive, but the effect was not obvious. This time, he was still skeptical.
“Then I’ll believe you for the last time… If the medicine prescribed by Doctor Mu still doesn’t work, I don’t want you to compensate me. You want me to cut the queue and register me to assign me to Miss Fox.”
“No problem!”
It was publicly acknowledged that Melody Fox was difficult to hang up. After receiving David Marrow’s answer, the patient took the prescription and went to get the medicine.
On the other side, in the backyard.
As soon as Quentin Parker left, Melody Fox began to investigate the house for sale around Silverlake.
The houses she had bought before were all suites, or the one in Ford Nelson, courtyard house. It did not meet her master’s requirements.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Melody Fox called Nana Jensen.
“Nana, I need your help with something…”
After explaining the purpose of the call, Nana Jensen readily agreed.
“Leave this to me. Give me ten minutes, and I’ll get someone to find the most suitable house for you. Oh right, is there a price requirement?”
“No, no matter how expensive it is, as long as the other conditions are met.”
“No problem!”
Not long after the call ended, before ten minutes had passed, Nana Jensen called.
“Sister Melody, I’ve found it for you. It’s just that the price is a little high. It costs nine digits…”
“Like I said, price isn’t a problem. Which neighborhood?”
“Left Antin Zhi. It’s a place directly opposite Mr. Swanson’s Serenity Villa.”
Melody Fox had an impression of that villa area. She asked, Can we go and see the houses now?”
“Of course. I happen to have a free time now. Shall we meet at Zuo’an Tingzhi’s sales office?”
“Okay.”
Melody Fox cut off the call and walked out like the wind. “Aaron Berg, let’s go to Tingzhi.”
“Yes!”
After Aaron Berg and Melody Fox, who were waiting in the car, sat down, they immediately stepped on the accelerator.
