Harvey shifted uncomfortably, his expression darkening. If Douglas died from his gift, he would be directly responsible. He had not even gotten his hands on Christina yet, and here he was, possibly killing her grandfather.
Quickly pulling out his phone, Harvey made a call “Dr. Aicker, this is Harvey Weller. We have an emergency. Please come immediately!”
Christina turned desperately to Andrew and pleaded, “Andrew, you’re a doctor. Please help Grandpa! He was fine just a moment ago!”
“I warned everyone that the pill was fake and dangerous,” Andrew replied coldly. “The entire Stevens family, including you, accused me of being petty. Now that there’s trouble, you conveniently remember that I’m a doctor?”
Christina’s face flushed with shame, but her pride would not let her admit her mistake. “We can discuss that later! Please just help Grandpa first!!
Andrew stepped forward, quickly pressing several pressure points to stop the bleeding. With some therapeutic massage, Douglas’s breathing eventually steadied. Then, Andrew had Leroy carry Douglas to bed.
Despite the family’s snobbery, Douglas had always been kind to him, so Andrew could not ignore his suffering.
“Mrs. Stevens, Christie, Leroy–don’t worry,” Harvey announced confidently once Douglas was stable. “I’ve already called Dr. Cedric Aicker.
Irene gasped, wide–eyed. “You mean the Dr. Cedric Aicker, the most renowned physician in Jayrodale?”
Harvey nodded, smiling with pride. “That’s right.”
The Stevens family erupted in impressed murmurs.
“The Aickers are Jayrodale’s elite, and Dr. Aicker rarely sees anyone!”
“As expected of Mr. Weller, even Dr. Aicker will come at his call!”
They were so impressed by Harvey’s connections that they completely forgot his fake pill had caused the problem, ignoring Andrew’s life–saving intervention.
“Andrew, Dr. Aicker will be here soon, so we don’t need you here. Dad will be just fine without you,” Irene stated coldly.
Andrew laughed. “So, you’re saying I wasted my time by helping?”
Irene huffed. “Think what you want. All I’m saying is, whatever we need done, Harvey can
make it happen.”

“Mom, that’s too harsh. Andrew did stop Grandpa’s bleeding in the
“So what?” Irene snapped. “His basic skills can’t compare to Dr. Alcker’s. As soon as Dr. Aicker arrives, Dad’s condition will be completely cured
Harvey smiled and chimed in, “While Andrew didn’t do much, we should still appreciate his concern. Once Dr. Aicker arrives, Mr. Stevens Senior will be fine, but we should thank Andrew for his good intentions!”
Andrew raised an eyebrow. “Are you saying I’m incompetent and was worried for nothing? Perhaps you can explain what caused Mr. Stevens Senior to bleed?”
Harvey could only force an awkward smile to hide his embarrassment, while his eyes flashed dangerously. He was enraged that a nobody like Andrew kept challenging him. Did he think being Jayrodale’s most prominent bachelor meant nothing?
