To be honest, if President Mackintosh hadn’t witnessed Paul’s amyotrophic lateral sclerosis being cured by Leo with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that Leo could save Martin’s legs. Now, it was a different story; he estimated that Leo would create another medical miracle.
In the following days, Leo, Sophia, and Jessica take turned caring for Martin. Additionally, the bandage soaked in medicinal solution on Martin’s left leg needed to be changed every 24 hours.
Martin woke up shortly after entering the intensive care room. After a few days of care and recuperation, his complexion improved significantly compared to when he was injured, and the deterioration predicted by Archie did not occur.
After a complete medical examination, it can be concluded that Martin’s left leg had been saved.
Archie found it all quite incredible. He couldn’t fathom how Martin’s leg, which should have been amputated according to all reason, was saved solely by some herbal powder.
Even more astonishing was that the muscles and bones in Martin’s injured leg had actually regrown. In just a few days, the knee bone had returned to its normal form, and the wound had started to scab over.
Archie couldn’t believe it unless he considered it a medical miracle.
In the intensive care room, Martin sat leaning on the bed, holding a chicken leg and looking at Leo. “Leo, you’ve saved my old life. If I had lost my leg, I really don’t know how I would have lived.”
“Hey! Mr. Henley’s injury is still recovering. Why are you giving him greasy food? Didn’t the nurse tell you to be cautious?” Archie walked in from outside, scolding Leo upon seeing the chicken leg in Martin’s hand.
Leo casually responded, “It’s precisely because his injury is recovering that he needs to supplement nutrition. No need to be cautious.”
Leo’s words instantly infuriated Archie. “I’m the doctor here. If I say you need to be cautious, then you need to be cautious!”
“Humph, daring to call yourself a doctor, almost sawed off my leg!” Martin glanced at Archie, coldly snorting.
Martin’s words immediately made Archie’s face awkward. He wanted to argue, but in the end, he said nothing.
Leo’s miraculous powder had delivered a heavy blow to him.
At this moment, President Mackintosh appeared outside the ward door. After glancing inside, he softly called, “Dr. Bloomer, could you come out for a moment?”
After Leo came out, President Mackintosh pulled him to a secluded corner and whispers, “Dr. Bloomer, I’ve read your father-in-law’s examination report. Not only has his leg been saved, but the recovery is quite good. At this rate, he might be able to walk on his own in a month.”
“No need for a month, at most half a month, and he’ll be walking again,” Leo smiles.
“Really?” President Mackintosh’s eyes brightened. “Your medicine is truly miraculous. No wonder it can cure ALS. I came to talk to you about the possibility of cooperation with our hospital. If your unique medicine could be used in clinical practice…”
Leo interrupted directly, “President Mackintosh, I’m sorry, but cooperation is not possible. My medicine cannot be produced in large quantities.”
“Oh, why is that?” President Mackintosh was puzzled.
Leo explained, “Because my medicinal powder requires a thousand-year wild ginseng and five-hundred-year-old Fire Lingzhi, which are impossible to mass-produce.”
“Can’t regular ginseng and Lingzhi be used as substitutes?” President Mackintosh persisted.
Leo shook his head, “No, even if regular ginseng and Lingzhi are used as substitutes, the resulting powder would be ineffective.”
Leo didn’t mention that during Martin’s treatment, he used spiritual energy. So even with the thousand-year wild ginseng and Fire Lingzhi, without the assistance of spiritual energy, the effectiveness would be greatly reduced.
President Mackintosh sighed deeply, expressing regret as he shook his head. Then, his expression became somewhat embarrassed. He lowered his voice again and said to Leo, “Dr. Bloomer, are you satisfied with the care your father-in-law is receiving from the hospital staff?”
“Very satisfied, thank you, President Mackintosh.”
Leo understood that if it weren’t for President Mackintosh’s special attention, those doctors would find fault, and Martin wouldn’t have been able to stay in the high-end intensive care room.
President Mackintosh wore a pleasing expression on his face, then said, “Dr. Bloomer, could you sell me some of that medicine you used for your father-in-law? I’m getting old, and in case of a fall or injury…”
Doctors and nurses passing by couldn’t help but glance when they saw President Mackintosh and a young stranger talking quietly in the corner. They naturally assumed that Leo was trying to flatter President Mackintosh. If they knew the true situation, they would likely be astonished.
Leo smiled, “President Mackintosh, there’s no need to buy. I’ll give you the remaining powder.”
“Really? Thank you so much!” President Mackintosh excitedly shook Leo’s hand.
In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. Under Leo’s dietary adjustments and traditional medicine, Martin’s recovery was remarkably fast. Just after half a month of hospitalization, he could slowly walk again.
Jessica handled the discharge procedures for Martin and took him home.
During this period, something else happened. Bruno came to the hospital and, in front of many doctors and nurses, knelt before Leo, earnestly pleading. Unable to endure the unbearable feeling of near-death at noon every day, Bruno finally came to Leo for an antidote. With Sophia’s general manager position restored by Bruno exercising his chairman rights, Leo gave him the antidote and warned that if such a thing happened again, the consequences wouldn’t be as simple as feeling near-death.
On this morning, after driving Sophia to work, Leo headed to the location of the Seven Stars Sword Sect’s sect.
As his Audi reached the foot of the mountain, Leo noticed a red Porsche blocking the road in the middle.
Frowning, Leo stopped the car.
Two people stood in front of the Porsche. One had a slender figure, tight-fitting clothes outlining exquisite curves, fiery red hair cascading like flames on her shoulders, complemented by a delicate face, possessing a natural charm. Leo’s keen eyes discerned that the woman’s hair wasn’t artificially dyed but naturally red. In addition, Leo sensed a faint, elusive fire energy lingering around her.
Beside the redhead was a burly figure, standing over six feet tall with short hair and a stern and imposing demeanor. His silver-colored eyes had a faint glint of lightning, giving off a powerful sense of oppression.
