The old-aged doctor was startled at the amount. "Sir, how can I address you? I know you're a good man, but 30 thousand i s too much!”
"Oh, not at all, not at all! I'll need to trouble you to look after the store today! And my name is Fane Woods!”
Fane chuckled and then looked at his lovely wife who was standing beside him." I’ll leave with my wife first." He then added.
"Alright, Mr. Woods. I'm Terrance Chaffry, just call me Terry.”
Terrance chortled warmly and sent the two off at the entrance.
"Fane, I know you’re trying to help, but you're too generous, don't you think so?" When they got out from the apothecary and on their way back home, Selena could not hold back but tease Fane. "You’re too generous that you scare the old doctor!”
"Haha! It’s okay. Terry and his family don't seem to be doing well. And it's obviously not easy to survive in Swallow City. After all, to own a house in Swallow City is challenging for ordinary people and it's indeed burdensome. Terry is a kind man; h e works just to lessen the burden on his son’s shoulders."
The corners of Fane’s mouth faintly curled upward. "Sigh! Parents will always worry about their children!" Fane whispered with emotions.
"You’re right. We're not lacking any money anyway, at the same time, we can help people! Besides, once we make a name for your medical skills here, I believe that all those rich people will come to us and by that time we'll earn back all the losses!"
Selena smiled at Fane. Fane could definitely be called a genius doctor with his outstanding medical skills. And with such skill, Fane could make as much money as he wanted, unless he had no desire to do so.
The couple soon went back to their home. A t this time, Caleb arrived at his home as well but with a severe nosebleed.
Initially, Caleb thought that with the aid from Peace, getting Selena would be a piece of cake. However, little did he expect t o get bruises on his face in the end; he did not even get to touch a single strand of Selena’s hair!
