Chapter 318
Don Albert shot Jason an intimidating glare and said, “Master Wade is our leader, your disrespect to him is equivalent to making us your enemies. If you dare blurt a single nonsensical statement again, I’ll break your leg!”
Jason’s face turned green and blue as the VIPs chided him continuously, shocked and speechless.
At this moment, Anthony yelled coldly, “Come here, Joshua Lynch!”
Joshua shuddered in astonishment when his name was called.
Others might not know it, but he knew very clearly whether his magical elixir had cured Anthony’s illness. He could still deceive them earlier, but now that the real man was here, his bluff would be exposed!
Nevertheless, he stepped forward with his head hanging low and greeted, “Master Simmons.”
Anthony rebuked angrily, “I heard you say that you cured my illness with that pill in your hand, is that true?”
Joshua started frantically, “I’m sorry, Master Simmons. I was just talking nonsense and bragging about something I didn’t do, please forgive me…”
Actually, Joshua knew full well that after he had sold the pill to Anthony, he did state that the pill was quite powerful and that it had relieved his injuries very well, but it was not so miraculous as to heal it completely. Earlier, he was simply bragging to boast about the pill’s effect, but he had never expected to see Anthony appear right in front of him.
He was extremely nervous and edgy as the majestic Anthony stood in front of him. Though he was regarded as a well-known Chinese medicine doctor, he paled in comparison to Anthony, who was the
president of the Chinese Medicine Association. If he offended him, his license as a Chinese medicine doctor could be revoked.
All his hard work in his whole life would go down the drain by then…
Anthony didn’t want to forgive Joshua so easily. He shouted at him coldly, “You’ve insulted Master Wade, apologize to him right now!”
Joshua felt annoyed by Anthony’s demand. Why? Why did he have to apologize to that loser? Even if he bragged about his ability, it didn’t mean that he was worse than Charlie!
He pursed his lips in agitation and said, “Master Simmons, I admit that I did lie about your part, but that Wade dude was talking nonsense. He insulted my drug, so why should I apologize to him?”
A layer of furious gloom covered Anthony’s face. He dragged Joshua aside and chided, “You fool! Do you know who made the pill you’re holding? It was Master Wade’s work! How dare you show off your skill before an expert? Idiot!”
“What?” Joshua cried out in disbelief, “Charlie Wade made this pill?”
Anthony said coldly, “Frankly, Master Wade refined a more effective and powerful magical elixir a few days ago. My old injuries were fully cured by his magical pill! How dare you question him?!”
Joshua shuddered in jittery, sweat drenching his forehead. He quickly explained, “Master Simmons, I’m so sorry, I didn’t know that Master Wade was the one who refined this pill. I wouldn’t have done what I did if I had known it…”
Before he could finish, Anthony interjected furiously, “It’s too late! After this, I’ll suggest to the health department that they permanently revoke your medical license!”
Blood drained Joshua’s face as he listened to Anthony’s announcement. Cold sweat drenched his body and he started shaking in panic and fear.
Then, he regained his composure, knelt in front of Charlie with a loud thump, and pleaded as he wailed, “Master Wade, please, I’m sorry, please accept my apology! Yes, I lied to everyone! I didn’t make that pill, I simply bought it. I didn’t even know if it’s able to cure quadriplegics, I just took it out to fool you… Please, please, I’m sorry for looking down on you and for offending you, please forgive me!”
Kneeling on the floor, he slapped himself and apologized profusely. Tears covered his face, body, and the floor…
