King's Back

Chapter 9 Your Kidney Is Weak

Dolcie felt quite embarrassed. Jackson was still her husband after all, which made it ridiculous for Logan to say this.

But Jackson looked calm, as if it weren’t his business at all. He knew Dolcie, a woman like her would not fall in love with a man like Logan Harper.

However, Jackson still failed to know what the woman was thinking. At an occasion like this, Dolcie hoped to see Jackson fight back, but he didn’t. The good impression he just built in her mind collapsed once again.

“Logan, why did you say such nonsense when you are not drunk yet?” Dolcie replied politely.

“Dolcie, I am not drunk, I mean it. The reason why I want to meet you so desperately is to ask you to cure my sickness.”

Dolcie was stunned, “To cure your sickness?”

She wasn’t a doctor, how could she help cure his sickness?

In order to successfully pursue Dolcie, Logan also made some other preparations. He smiled and said, “I will leave suspense here first. Although I have lots of money, and could afford any kind of doctors, yet you’re the only person who can cure my sickness.”

Dolcie looked at Logan, who was still talking and smiling, he didn’t seem to be sick at all.

In fact, Logan wasn’t sick, he had already prepared it. If Dolcie asked why he was sick, he would confess that he actually had a lovesickness, which would sound very romantic.

But before Dolcie could talk, Jackson said abruptly, “You’re sick indeed.”

Logan was dazed for a while, and he smiled, “You’re right, I am sick.”

“I’m not joking, you are sick for real.” Jackson said playfully.

Now Logan was annoyed. He was trying to be romantic, but Jackson was cursing him.

“So, Mr. Owen you’ re not only good at French, but also medicine?”

Jackson smile slightly, “Better than you at least.”

Logan was infuriated at once. Damn, this guy was acting against him ever since he came. It was so disgusting and uncomfortable.

If it wasn’t the presence of Dolcie’s family, he would have already knocked over the table.

“Although I am not very knowledgable, my family owns several famous hospitals in the Y City. I think I know some medicine as well.”

“Mr. Owen, you look quite confident. What’s the reason for you to say that I am sick. And what is my sickness?”

Jackson answered: “Mr. Harper, though you look vigorous, yet you are in poor health. If I’m not mistaken, you must have a pain in the back, feel cold at the limbs, feel dizzy frequently, and sweat in the middle of the night while sleeping.”

Logan was shocked, the symptoms described were accurate.

This garbage did know something about medicine.

Logan’s family owned a few hospitals, allowing him to go through body examination. The result showed that he was just sub-healthy and weak, not a big deal.

“Mr. Owen, I’m sorry, but I don’t have any of these symptoms. I am very healthy.”

Jackson ridiculed: “You know the answer better than anyone else.”

Logan was a little scared, he snorted and said, “It sounds as if you’re saying something real. Then tell me, what exactly is my problem?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Jackson asked back, “Do you have any of the symptoms that I just mentioned? If you don’t tell me the truth, it’ pointless for me to tell you what the illness is.”

“I have. But that’s because of the lack of exercise. I am busy at work usually.”

Jackson laughed, “Mr. Harper, your illness doesn’t form in one day. The problem is that your kidney is weak. You must have tried hard recently to replenish your kidney. What you eat is lamb, dog meat, and leeks.”

Logan looked awful. Sweat emerged from his forehead. He was replenishing his body recently, how did he know that.

“Nonsense! It must be caused by overwork.”

Jackson said contemptuously: “Overwork can indeed lead to weakness in the kidney, but your weakness is due to your overindulgence in sexual desires. You must have masturbated twice every day. I recommend you to stop doing this, otherwise you will be impotent soon and age fast.”

Logan’s face darkened. He did have the habit of masturbating. But how could this guys say it out in front of so many people, wasn’t it intentionally said to embarrass him?

Especially when Jackson said that Logan was impotent, Martha’s expression changed. She was hoping to marry her daughter to Logan have a grandson. If he was really impotent, then what about the future of her daughter?

Dolcie’s expression looked unnatural. She felt disgusted by the weird habit of Logan, who was already a middle age man.

Seeing the strange expression on members of Dolcie’s family, Logan couldn’t hold his anger anymore, he said: “Mr. Owen! I didn’t expect you to be so sneaky in order to maintain your marriage with Dolcie.”

“I have divorced for many years, spending all my time on work, how come I would overindulge in lust.”

Martha suddenly realized something, and hurriedly took over the conversation, “That’s right. Logan is the boss of a big company, and he would never do such thing. Look at you Jackson, so weird in appearance. You must have masturbated a lot all these years, since you sleep in different rooms from Dolcie.”

Jackson didn’t say no, because he did sleep in different rooms from Dolcie all these years.

On the one hand, it was because of Dolcie’s parents. On the other hand, Jackson was also responsible for this. He never asked to be in the same room with Dolcie, which gave Dolcie the impression that Jackson was a coward.

Although they had married for three years, yet Dolcie was still a virgin. Logan certainly caught the point, his heart trembled and thus looked at Dolcie differently.

Originally, he just thought Dolcie was a second-hand product, but now it seemed she was a brand new one. He decided to try harder to get Dolcie.

A few minutes later, all the dishes were served on the table.

Logan poured some red wine for the ladies politely and some for himself.

Jackson reminded him coldly: “Mr. Harper, your kidney is weak. You’d better not drink any wine.”

Logan raised his eyebrow. He was actually good at drinking wine, plus he wanted to show off in front of Dolcie’s family. Therefore, he just sneered at Jackson’s friendly reminder.

“Mr. Owen, you keep saying that my kidney is weak, I am afraid that you are the one who’s weak. How about we drink together, and see who got drunk first.”

Dolcie realized that the two were going to have a competition in drinking wine, and she was about to dissuade them. But before she could talk, Martha stopped her.

Martha had been annoyed by Jackson long ago, especially in an occasion like this, how dare he keep messing around.

An experienced person like Logan must have an outstanding drinking capacity. By the time Jackson got drunk, he would make fool of himself. In this way, the last bit of good impression Dolcie had for Jackson would go away.

At that time, what their relationship needed the most was a simple push.

“What? Don’t tell me that you dare not drink wine with me.”

Seeing that Jackson remained quiet, Logan thought he was scared.

“Sure, why not.”

Jackson smiled lightly. Drinking red wine was nothing to him, his health would be perfectly fine even if he drank pure alcohol.
