Chapter 324
Leon paused for a moment, but quickly agreed, "Of course, no problem!"
He smiled. "I didn't expect someone your age to be so committed to charity. That's really impressive!" As he
spoke, the taxi pulled up in front of the hospital.
After getting out of the car, Leon and Yolanda headed straight to the second floor, where the special care unit
was located.
As they approached the room, Leon noticed two burly bodyguards standing at the door with grim expressions.
Clearly, Logan had posted them there to prevent any trouble.
Leon greeted the bodyguards, who recognized him, and they allowed him and Yolanda inside.
The room was crowded with people. The most noticeable figures in the middle of the group were a square-faced
man in a suit and a middle-aged woman quietly weeping by his side.

Yolanda glanced around the room and quickly deduced that these two were Logan and Monica.
By the bedside stood a small, frail old man with his eyes closed, checking Adrian's pulse.
"That man is a miracle doctor found by Mrs. Fuel's, Miguel Haslingden," Leon whispered.
Yolanda shot a deeper glance at Miguel but said nothing.
Miguel continued with his eyes closed, muttering things in a language no one else understood. This only made
Logan and Monica revere him even more. Yolanda, however, could hear him clearly-he was reciting traditional
medicine theory while taking Adrian's pulse.
To Yolanda, this was as absurd as an accountant reciting multiplication tables while doing taxes. Without even
hearing Miguel's diagnosis, Yolanda had already taken a dislike to him.
After a few more minutes, Miguel finally opened his eyes, stroking his white beard, looking all-knowing and wise.
"Dr. Haslingden, how is my son's condition?"
"Is he in any danger?"
Logan and Monica spoke in unison, their eyes full of hope as they looked at Miguel.
Since Derek was away in Creybia for a consultation and Logan couldn't find anyone else, they were now pinning
their hopes on this miracle doctor Monica had found to save Adrian.
"Mr. Fuel, Mrs. Fuel, to be frank, your son's condition is quite tricky," Miguel said, shaking his head and sighing as
if there was little he could do.
This reaction sent a wave of dread through Logan and Monica.
"Dr. Haslingden, are you saying you can't save my son?"
"Please, think of something! We're begging you!"
"There is a way..." Miguel said with a faint smile, pausing just enough to catch Logan's hopeful gaze. "I have a
method that could save Mr. Adrian, but....."
"But what?" Monica interrupted, her voice filled with urgency. "Dr. Haslingden, whatever the cost, we will pay it!
We'll do anything to save our son!"
"It's not that extreme," Miguel chuckled. "The method I'm thinking of is a secret passed down through the
Haslingden family for generations. We don't reveal it to just anyone. Using it will drain my energy and even
shorten my lifespan..."
Hearing this, Logan immediately made a promise. "Dr. Haslingden, if you're willing to proceed, I'll give you 500
million dollars as compensation for the toll it takes on you."
"Please, save my poor son! He's only 20 years old, and his life is just beginning!" Monica took a step forward,
pleading desperately.
At the stime, Logan pulled out his pen and checkbook, wrote out a 500- million-dollar check on the spot,
and handed it to Miguel.
"Dr. Haslingden, I'm counting on you!" Logan said. "And from now on, the Fuel family will forever be in debt to
the Haslingden family. If you or your family ever need anything, | will spare no effort to help you."
