Gus only had a one percent chance of survival, but some fresh graduate who was thought to be Gene''s lover managed to seed with that chance?!


    Hell, the man could even talk now!


    Paco felt as if his world was crumbling around him, as if the decades of medical knowledge he had did not amount to a couple brats.


    Around him, his assistants were gaping in shock.


    Paco could not do it! What gave those two the right to seed?


    Was it even possible that their medical skills were superior to Paco''s despite being less experienced?


    "Do you know the name Frank Lawrence?"


    Gus rasped at Winter and Jean Zims, though his eyes were still closed.


    "Frank Lawrence?"


    Winter and Jean traded nces.


    "He''s my brother," Winter replied.


    "He''s my mentor," Jean said at the same time.


    Gus nodded and sighed in turn. "So it really was him... He saved my life again."


    Then, turning toward Paco and his assistants, he said quietly, "Frank Lawrence is mentor to Kenny Loggins of Morhen. That makes these girls Kenny''s peers."


    At those words, Paco lost his bnce as his knees buckled, and he dropped to his knees in front of Winter.


    Kenny Loggins was the owner of Morhen''s Loggins Apothecary, and his name was known throughout Draconia!


    On top of that, he was an undisputed miracle worker in Draconia!


    Forget Paco no one working in Zamri Hospital was even qualified to invite Kenny over for a seminar.


    And yet, Paco was mocking Kenny''s peers?!


    Who did he think he was?!


    Moreover, he had heard Gus mention Frank Lawrence, and it just so happened that the person who famously saved Gene''s life was also a youth named Frank Lawrence!


    Everything became clear as day, as


    Paco realized instantly that Winter was appointed chief not because she was Gene''s lover, but rather, her very presence was an honor to Zamri Hospital!


    "I-I''m so sorry, chief! I was ignorant and spoke with insolence... I''m sorry!"


    Seeing Paco kowtow to her, Winter quickly pulled him to his feet.


    "Please stop this, Dr. Nellis! You''re right-I got this job thanks to my brother and Gene Pearce''s influence, and I''m still young and


    inexperienced. I still need your help and guidance from now on..."


    Her humility left Paco awash with emotion.


    His assistants had heard the rumors as well and were terrified when they found out that Winter was Frank''s sister.


    They went down on their knees and apologized too.


    "Hey... Are you guys just hanging me out to dry here?"


    Gus wasying on the trolley bedThis content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    with an awkward look on his face as he did his best to turn his head, finding only chaos as people were wiping tears, kowtowing,


    apologizing, or shing bitter smiles.


    "Huh? What''s going on? Aren''t they..."


    Just then, Frank was leading Winter''s ssmates as they strode down the hallway.


    He was worried and came over to check on how Winter was doing on her first day as hospital chief.


    As soon as he arrived at the entrance, he found the young women storming out.
