Chapter 18 Strange Uncle

1096 Words
When they sat down in the living room, Guyatt made them a cup of tea, and then sighed with emotion, “Boss, I never expect you to marry her. You know, she has been at the forefront over the years. If I had known that she was your wife, I would never have let these guys be so arrogant.”   Hearing it, Charlotte also recalled the grievances she had suffered over the years and couldn’t help silently lowering her head.   Samuel shook his head and smiled lightly, “Well, it is all my fault. If it weren’t for the years when I only paid attention to my career and ignored them, they wouldn’t be reduced to such an extremely poor situation.”   “But luckily, I come back in time. No one can bully them in the future!”   With that, Samuel turned to look at Charlotte and Olivia, and then smile faintly.   Guyatt also nodded and laughed, “Boss, of course, I believe in your words. Don’t say those hooligans in London, even in the Manchester, it is also...”   Before Guyatt finished speaking, Samuel suddenly gave him a stare and hinted that he should shut up immediately.   “Ahem...Charlotte, you needn’t think too much. I was just talking nonsense, um... I drank too much. By the way, boss, why do you come here? is that serious?”   Samuel nodded. He picked up Olivia and walked to him.   “My daughter is seriously ill. Her illness is getting worse with the treatment of those charlatans. I don’t believe them, so I can only come to you to have a look.”   “That sounds terrible!”   Guyatt was a little angry and said in a deep voice, “Boss, if I am right, is a man named Caleb making trouble for you?”   Samuel raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, “Yes, do you know him?”   “Hum, everyone here knows this scum!”   Guyatt snorted and resumed, “In fact, I was bored in my spare time, so I just wanted to keep muddling in that hospital. Only once I offended him, he kicked me out of the hospital directly. You know, it is just because I did well at something.”   “I shouldn’t let him go easily last time.”   Samuel nodded and said with a wry smile, “By the way, you are the apprentice of the medical sage. You can even be the head of the hospital in Manchester. Will it upset your master if you work here?”   When he heard it, Guyatt’s face darkened.   “My master told me on his deathbed that I can’t expose myself to anyone unless you come to me.”   Hearing it, Samuel also sighed.   “Well, let it go today. You check Olivia first. No matter how much it costs, I am willing to afford it as long as she could be cured.”   “Don’t worry, boss. You saved my life. You know, I couldn’t have a chance to be the apprentice of the medical sage without you. I will repay you for your kindness all my life. Now, it is absolutely my duty to treat my niece!”   With that, Guyatt rubbed his hands and then smiled at Olivia and said, “My sweet niece, let me have a look, okay?”   However, Olivia was unwilling to be close to this “strange uncle”, just shuddering in Samuel’s arms.   “Dad, he is so strange. I am scared.”   Hearing it, Samuel and Charlotte looked at each other and then couldn’t help laughing.   Rubbing Olivia’s head gently, Samuel comforted her, “Olivia, don’t worry. He is entire without malice. Look, Mom and I are here, right? It’s okay.”   Samuel’s warm words and Charlotte’s encouragement made Olivia relaxed and then she chose to trust them.   Guyatt shook his head with a wry smile and joked, “Am I so strange?”   Guyatt let Olivia lie flat on the sofa, then took out the silver needle and gently stabbed her.   “Ah! It hurts!”   Tears misted her eyes and she quickly struggled to stand up.   Samuel hurried forward to hold Olivia’s hands and comforted her, “Don’t worry, I am here. Hold on for a while, then your illness will be completely cured and you will be able to travel outside with us.”   Hearing his words, Olivia nodded gently and stopped screaming for pain.   A few minutes later, Guyatt slowly pulled out the silver needle, grim-faced. Then he said, “Damn it! Caleb, that bastard, how can he hurt such a little girl! s**t!”   Samuel asked in a deep voice, “What is going on? Is that very serious?”   Guyatt shook his head and explained, “Her illness could be easily cured in every hospital, but that bastard should have deliberately dragged on to make it much more serious.”   At this time, Charlotte also nodded and said with guilt, “It’s all my fault. I couldn’t raise money to pay her medical expenses before, so Caleb drove us out.”   “Charlotte, it’s none of your business. I am not an unfit father.”   Samuel’s eyes darkened and then he continued, “Guyatt, how long will you cure her illness?”   Guyatt smiled, held out a finger and said, “An hour each day, less than seven days. A course of acupuncture will be given to her and her illness will be cured.”   Guyatt’s words gave Samuel a short break.   Charlotte was even more excited and bowed to Guyatt continuously.   Guyatt stopped her with a wry smile. “Charlotte, stop doing that again. It is my duty. If you still bow, I’m afraid that boss will kill me.” he explained.   Having heard it, Charlotte gently nodded.   Then, Guyatt took Olivia to a room and set out to do acupuncture treatment. Charlotte asked curiously, “Samuel, why have I never heard that medical sage?”   “Medical sage...Um... it is a legend many years ago...”   Samuel’s eyes grew misty. It seemed that he was recalling something in the past.   An hour later, Guyatt came to them with Olivia. At this time, Olivia looked much better than before.
