Hera was not in the mood to joke around with Nash now.
She knew that Nash had some medical skills.
However, her grandfather had already been diagnosed with advanced stomach cancer.
At present, there was no medical technology in the world that could cure advanced-stage cancer.
20 minutes later, Hera’s car stopped in the parking lot of the city hospital.
Nash let out a relieved sigh.
That was even more thrilling than when he helped a group of international mercenaries drive a tank five years ago.
As soon as they got out of the car, they saw someone pacing back and forth at the entrance of the hospital.
Hera rushed over in a hurry. “Dad, Grandpa, he…”
His eyes were red, and he said in a hoarse voice, “It’s not looking good. He probably won’t make it through tonight!”
When Nash approached, Harrison looked at Nash and said, “The old man keeps calling your name as if he has something to tell you!”
Nash had already heard Hera mention it before. He also guessed that Herman probably wanted to tell him about his origin.
They followed him to a ward in the oncology department.
Herman was wearing an oxygen mask, and the curve on the heart rate monitor jumped extremely slowly, with a strong smell of death emanating from his body.
Compared to yesterday, Herman seemed to have aged 20 years overnight.
Nash furrowed his eyebrows.
Something was not right!
How could his condition become so severe overnight?
A faint light flashed in his eyes, and he instantly saw through the old man’s body.
The malignant tumor in the stomach had ruptured, and his entire chest cavity was filled with tumors.
The tumor the old man had yesterday was not this severe.
Even if the cancer cells had spread, it would be impossible for the entire chest cavity to be filled with them overnight.
Nash narrowed his eyes, and a mission from five years ago came to his mind.
Five years ago, his master arranged for him to go to Dallard to collaborate with local mercenaries to strike a biochemistry laboratory and rescue a fellow countryman who was an experimental subject in the laboratory.
That laboratory had a biochemical agent that could accelerate cell growth.
The accelerated growth and spread of cancer cells in the old man’s body indicated that someone had injected him with that forbidden biochemical agent.
“Grandpa…”
Hera, with red eyes, held her grandfather’s hand and looked at the lifeless old man, unable to hold back her tears.
Harrison leaned over to Herman’s ear and whispered softly, “Dad… Nash is here!”
The old man’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and then his vacant eyes slowly opened.
He opened his mouth, but nothing came out.
Harrison pressed his ear against the old man’s mouth but could not catch a single word.
“Dad…”
Hubert stumbled into the ward with a chubbier woman by his side.
“Dad… how are you doing?”
Hubert walked to the hospital bed in tears with a distraught expression on his face.
The chubby woman also pretended to wipe away tears that were not there and sobbed, “Dad… you can’t die… This family can’t be without you!”
Sighing, Hubert said, “I can’t make out what Dad wants to say at all!”
“Dr. Tanner, please come in!”
An old man in a white coat respectfully brought in an elderly man dressed in traditional clothing who was carrying a wooden box in his hands.
“Dr. Tanner!” Lauren’s face lit up when she saw the elderly man.
Dr. Brian Tanner was a miracle doctor.
He was Jonford’s number one physician and the vice president of the Jonford Traditional Medicine Association.
He was one of the most influential traditional medicine practitioners in the country.
He possessed extraordinary healing skills and was capable of curing diseases with his medicine.
Brian was over 70 years old, and his silver hair was combed back. He had a ruddy complexion and sharp eyes and did not have a single wrinkle on his face.
He looked at Lauren and then at Mr. Dean, asking in surprise, “Were you two talking about the same patient?”
Lauren realized that Mr. Dean had also invited Dr. Tanner to treat her father-in-law.
Mr. Dean was also taken aback. Did old Lewis’ daughter-in-law also know Miracle Doctor Tanner?
“Dr. Tanner, the situation is urgent here. Please help me take a look at my father’s condition!” she pleaded with a mournful face.
