The butler chid in: "Although I’m not very fond of him, his dical skills are indeed impressive. When the plague broke out in Esteria, nurous officials were dispatched to deal with it to no avail. In the end, it was Dr. Hale who resolved the crisis."
Indeed, it was during that plague in Esteria that Simon Hale earned his fa overnight.
His na has been recorded in nurous dical texts since then.
This is also why, despite his disdain for Simon Hale, the butler still showed him so respect.
He and Zachary laid it all out, mainly because they felt that July Quinn’s remark urging Simon Hale to relinquish unearned glory was truly over the line.
Yet, they hadn’t expected even more outrageous things to follow.
"It was just a minor plague, and only he would use such an affair to glorify himself," July Quinn said with utmost disdain.
For a small matter like the plague, the Monroe Family has already resolved it countless tis as recorded in many of their dical books.
They never, however, made a grand show of it as Simon Hale did, making it known to everyone.
They usually poured the brewed dicine directly into the water supply, silently nipping the disaster in the bud.
As for fa and fortune, they never cared, which allowed the vile Hale family to exploit the situation.
"Just a minor plague? You make it sound so trivial. If mishandled, it could kill many people."
Feeling that his significant historical achievent was so undervalued, Simon Hale felt like he was being thoroughly humiliated.
Zachary and the butler also felt that July Quinn was being excessive and tried to persuade her.
But July Quinn remained extrely disdainful, especially towards Simon Hale, as if looking at sothing as insignificant as mud on the ground.
A glint of cold light flashed in Simon Hale’s eyes: "Since you look down on my dical skills so much, how about we have a dical duel?"
In fact, this was a plan he had long envisioned to get the Westmarch Divine Doctor thrown in jail.
Even if July Quinn hadn’t provoked him, he would eventually propose this competition.
With July Quinn’s impulsive nature, she would certainly agree to the challenge.
Once July Quinn accepts the challenge, even if she really has the Monroe Family’s dical skills, so what?
She’s still so young, she definitely hasn’t mastered everything.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to cause her so incident, she would then spend the rest of her life in prison, not obstructing his future anymore.
Yet, in all his thorough planning, Simon Hale hadn’t anticipated July Quinn’s response: "Not interested. You think just because you want a challenge, I’d waste my ti with you? Like sitting around doing nothing all day, relying on trickery to get by?"
Simon Hale: "..."
The damage wasn’t severe, but the insult was intense, that’s the gist of it.
Luckily, even Zachary couldn’t stand it any longer and said at the right mont: "Young woman, actually, Dr. Hale doesn’t an anything else, just a friendly competition. If you win, it proves you truly have exceptional dical skills and can take on the role of the director at Rosewell Hospital."
July Quinn followed his words and continued: "And if I lose, it would an I faked my dical skills, can’t take on the director role, and would end up in jail, right?"
Zachary didn’t respond, but that was indeed his implication.
And July Quinn saw through his intentions, "Such a frivolous competition, I’m not interested in participating."
She was a true heir of the Monroe Family’s dical skills.
Having her compete against soone who rely read a volu of Monroe dical books is like a university student competing with a kindergarten kid.
A showdown with such disparate strength wouldn’t be aningful even if she won.
However, Simon Hale perceived her reaction as a sign that she lacked genuine dical skill, deliberately avoiding it!
