Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1256

While the Smiths had also met up with others to attempt to treat the illness, none of them had been able to

produce any substantial results. It was around then when they came across the incredibly skillful Dr. Mabb and

began asking for his help.

After several visits, those from the Smith family even got to know both of Jace’s apprentices a bit better. The man—

who was around the age of thirty—went by the name of Walbridge Lumb. As for the other apprentice, she was a

twenty-three-year-old-woman by the name of Brianna Zeigler.

Regardless, while it was true that Dr. Mabb had already made multiple visits before this, he hadn’t been able to

discern what the issue was with her yet.

“…If there isn’t anything else, I’m going to go have a look at grandma first. Though all of you needn’t be too

worried since her illness isn’t that major,” said Gerald rather confidently.

Upon hearing that, Walbridge’s expression immediately turned fierce, though he had already been hostile from the

moment Brianna had said that Gerald could be a doctor as well.

‘Is this guy trying to steal our business or something? Though he’s younger than me, to think that he said that the

illness wasn’t anything major when even the master hasn’t been able to identify her illness! The f*cking nerve of

this guy!’

“It’d do you well not to be too arrogant, young man,” said Walbridge with a slight frown, clear dissatisfaction in his

voice.

“He’s right, Gerald… I don’t mean to be rude, but I’ve never heard of you studying medicine before…” added Helen

who truly didn’t have any intention of looking down on him. However, treating illnesses and saving lives was no

trivial affair.

What more, she knew that Gerald was a student from the faculty of literature. Even if he was a rich heir, that didn’t

automatically mean that he was a master in all other skills as well. While those from the Smith family were willing to

believe in Gerald’s words, the risks involved were simply too high for them to rest easy.

Sensing that their hesitation was sound and they truly didn’t mean anything else, Gerald simply shook his head with

a slightly bitter laugh. Truth be told, he had already mastered three religions and nine schools of thought. With that

in mind, what was medical expertise to him?

Naturally, Gerald knew better than to blame Mrs. Smith and the others. After all, they knew little about what had

happened to him in the past two years. For ordinary people, such a leap in ability would most definitely sound

illogical.

Regardless, they saved the chit-chat for later and began walking toward the room where Serenity was in.

Upon entering the sickroom, Rita—who had been staying by her grandmother’s side this entire time—instantly

turned around to see who had entered. Noticing that Gerald was also present, Rita flashed a smile at him before

saying, “So you’re here too, Gerald! Regardless, my grandmother’s already woken up, Dr. Mabb!”

Hearing that, Serenity—who was still lying on the bed—called out in a weak voice, “Dr. Mabb… Dr. Lumb… Dr.

Zeigler… And Gerald… I’m glad to have all of you here… Getting… straight to business, I’ve already been sick for

two years now, Dr. Mabb… While it only attacks occasionally, every time it happens, it gets more and more

serious… Despite me saying ‘occasionally’, it’s happening way more times than before…”

It was obvious that she hadn’t expected Gerald to want to cure her illness as well, which was why she was only

looking at Jace as she explained her recent conditions to him.

“Each attack usually lasts for less than an hour. While I do wake up after that, after a short while, the attacks

usually return for another four to five times before finally stopping. I’ll be frank and say that I can’t bear it

anymore…!” added Serenity with a sigh.

“There’s no need to be so nervous, Madam Smith. My master’s been researching your illness this entire time. While

it’s truly an odd illness, master’s finally managed to gain some results from his investigation efforts. We’ll have you

look at it now! I assure you that master’s findings are much better compared to the nonsense some people who

lack self-awareness are capable of spouting!” replied Walbridge with a smile as he took a peek at Gerald.

“Haha! I’m afraid that you won’t be able to find anything wrong with me if you’re doing my check-up now… I’ve

already seen several other doctors, and none of them had been able to diagnose anything wrong with me until my

headache struck!” said Serenity in a smile of resignation.

“…Oh! I… see. Right, right!” replied Walbridge slightly awkwardly as he took a step back.

“…Regardless, if you’ve truly found the solution to my illness, could you treat it immediately, Dr. Mabb? I really

don’t wish to suffer so much anymore!” begged the old lady.

Jace himself simply remained silent.

Gerald, on the other hand, simply looked at the wall clock in the room before saying, “There’s no need to be

impatient, grandma… Let’s just wait for an hour and five minutes to pass. Your attack should trigger then and I

believe that Dr. Mabb will only be able to cure you when you’re suffering your headache!”
