Larry flipped through the medical report and said, "The patient has been bedridden for too long. He has
low levels of immunity, and there are signs of joint contracture along his Achilles tendon. Also, he did
not maintain a proper dietary intake, so his body lacks the necessary vitamins and nutrients, or in other
words, he is malnourished."
When Larry noticed the frown on Kingsley's face, he hurriedly added, "However, due to the patient's
active lifestyle prior to this, his body is still in relatively good health. The aforementioned symptoms will
not pose too much of a problem."
"Explain."
"Malnutrition can be easily addressed with a gradual increase in dietary intake, while the Achilles
tendon contracture can be remedied with physical therapy," Larry elaborated. "It's clear that the
patient's family has taken very good care of him. The patient doesn't have any of the usual rashes,
sores, or inflammation that we usually see in bedridden patients."
Kingsley nodded. "This means that he will fully recover once we look into his nutrition, treat his
paralysis, and conduct physical therapy?"
"Yes… Uhh, actually no…" Larry's expression became a little awkward. "About that… Let me be frank
with you. His injury is on his lumbar spine, and it has been a very long time, so there is very little hope
of him regaining the ability to walk…"
Kingsley had a faint smile on his face. "You don't need to worry about that. I have my ways of treating
him."
All the other doctors present, including Larry, were left speechless.
Even Alice muttered under her breath, "Kingsley, what are you saying? Even I can tell that there's no
hope in treating his injury. Don't make a fool out of yourself by speaking so carelessly."
Kingsley smirked and did not bother defending himself.
All would be proven once he performed acupuncture on Joshua the day after tomorrow!
Kingsley lowered his eyes to gaze at Joshua, who was lying on the hospital bed. He spoke
reassuringly, "Did you hear that, Mr. Johnson? The doctors said that your body is in good condition.
The hospital will be giving you nutritional supplements for the next two days, so just stay here and have
a good rest. You don't need to worry about anything else."
Overwhelmed with emotion, Joshua trembled as he grasped Kingsley's hand and declared, "Thank
you. Really, Thank you so much, Mr. Nicholson. I never thought that I would be able to get such a
thorough medical checkup."
"You don't need to thank me. This is all credited to Leroy's excellent performance at the company, and
it's the company that's providing this benefit in return."
He took a look around the room and asked curiously, "Didn't you tell Leroy about you coming to the
hospital? Why isn't he here?"
Joshua wiped his grateful tears away and explained, "I did tell him, but he said that he was supervising
on-site, so he couldn't leave."
Kingsley nodded in understanding. He recognized that this was Leroy's way of repaying him.
He could not help but sigh at Leroy's innocence and sincerity.
"Don't worry, Mr. Johnson. The company will ensure that Leroy takes a few days off to come and
accompany you," Kingsley said. "Make sure you rest well over these two days. I'll start your treatment
the day after tomorrow."
"Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Nicholson. I am forever in your debt…"
Joshua's tears were streaming down his face as he thanked Kingsley profusely.
At the same time, all the other doctors exchanged glances with one another and shared similar looks of
derision.
They were all specialists in different medical fields, and they had looked into Joshua's injury in great
detail. There was no hope for recovery at all.
Yet Kingsley kept repeating that he would be treating Joshua in a few days.
How could that even happen?
However, none of them dared to voice their doubts due to Kingsley's status.
They could only purse their lips and exchange scornful expressions with one another.
Alice noticed their behaviors.
Her lips twitched as she decided to find a time to knock some sense into Kingsley.
Where did he learn to talk big at such a young age?
Now that Kingsley was assured about Joshua's condition, there was no need for him to stay on any
longer.
He needed to head back to Coliree Group and see if Lancer had any updates after his interrogation
with Jonas Kolstad and Karl Osberg.
"Alice, could you look after Mr. Johnson for a bit?" Kingsley asked. "I'll get his son to come over this
afternoon."
"Alright. Don't worry, I'll be here at the hospital, so you don't need to be concerned about Reene or Mr.
Johnson."
Just a moment ago, Alice had been contemplating how she intended to lecture Kingsley for his actions,
but looking at his face, she lost all the fight in her.
It seemed like no matter what Kingsley asked of her, she would agree without a second thought.
She wouldn't even hesitate at all.
After instructing Larry and the other doctors to take good care of Joshua, Kingsley and Alice exited the
ward.
In the corridor, two people stepped out from the restrooms dressed in cleaners' uniforms.
They were carrying a mop and several rags with them, and their expressions were filled with discomfort
and contempt.
It turned out to be Jennifer Crawford and Brian Malkovich, the two who had mocked Alice.
"It's you?"
