Chapter 158 Let You Give Up
Holbrook Davis watched the exchange unfold in front of him, and his irritation only grew. The disrespect from these two men was intolerable, especially toward a doctor of his caliber. In his mind, the situation was ludicrous. They came here seeking his teacher, but when they finally encountered him, one man insulted him, and the other acted as though he wasn't even present.
His respect for these individuals—particularly Bob Redman—was nonexistent. Holbrook was a respected Chinese medicine master, someone who had spent decades honing his skills. And yet here were these foolish, arrogant men, acting like they owned the world.
"Old man, what the hell did you just say?" Bob Redman's voice was filled with fury, the tension in the air palpable.
Bob's patience had worn thin. For days, he'd been holding in his anger, but the words from this man were the final straw. He was about to lash out, but Mason White, his more composed companion, immediately intervened.
"Master!" Mason White's voice was sharp, urging Bob to rein in his emotions before they spiraled out of control.
Bob took a deep breath, swallowing his anger and trying to calm his raging nerves. His glare, however, was still fixed on Holbrook Davis. "I'll let it go this time, but if this so-called highly skilled doctor turns out to be a fraud, I'll tear down this damn clinic."
Holbrook Davis's sharp eyes locked onto Bob, his face a mask of distaste. Despite Bob's threat, Holbrook remained unphased. He was not one to be intimidated by hollow threats.
Mason White, however, sensed that the situation needed to be de-escalated. He quickly turned to Holbrook, his tone polite yet urgent. "Sir, you mentioned that your teacher was with us. Could you clarify what you meant by that?"
Holbrook's gaze flickered between the two men, and then, as though he could no longer suppress the truth, he pointed toward John Lopez, who had been standing silently.
