Chapter 334
"Well, I'm not sure either, but whether our guess is right or not, we'll find out sooner or later," Dunstan said as he
walked into the clinic with Yolanda.
"By the way, Dr. Henderson, we've sold out all the cold-prevention medicine we made earlier. Should we prepare
more to sell?"
"Already?" Yolanda raised an eyebrow, realizing she had underestimated the number of people living in the area.
"Make more. You can decide how much," she replied.
Yolanda knew that giving Dunstan sauthority over small matters like this would help him feel more valued,
motivating him to work harder.
During their tworking together, Yolanda had cto understand that Dunstan's issues stemmed from the
high expectations placed on him because of Derek's reputation. When he couldn't meet those expectations, he
would lose confidence.

To address this, Yolanda assigned him tasks within his capability, gradually building his confidence by offering
praise and rewards when appropriate. So far, her approach seemed to be working well.
Yolanda didn't go to Willow Creek Clinic the next day. Instead, she visited Cinnamine Pharmaceuticals. Cianna
was nearly finished with the handover process. Yolanda took the opportunity to visit the research department to
check on the progress of the formula she had provided.
In the morning two days later, Yolanda arrived at Willow Creek Clinic and noticed that the pasta restaurant across
the street had been replaced by a traditional medicine clinic called Healing Haven.
The sign, designed in a classic, antique style, had already been hung. Since it was a new opening, the clinic had
hired several young, attractive women in dresses to hand out flyers at the entrance.
"Ms. Henderson, you're finally here!" Dunstan greeted her as soon as she entered the clinic. "That clinic opened
yesterday. They even had a whole performance. It was quite the event. To top it off, they're offering free
consultations for new patients, and there's a 15% discount on all medications!"
Dunstan pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.
"That explains why we haven't been having many patients today. Apart from the regulars, everyone else has
gone over to that new clinic!" Clearly, Dunstan found Healing Haven's method of getting customers shameless.
"I've seen stores hold clearance sales before, but I've never seen a clinic offer discounts. Aren't they breaking
the rules and stealing business?"
He ranted, but when he noticed that Yolanda's expression remained unchanged, his curiosity got the better of
him.
"Ms. Henderson, they're obviously engaging in unfair competition and taking our patients. Aren't you upset at
all?" he asked.
"What's there to be upset about? You've had a much quieter day, haven't you? You even have tto eat,"
Yolanda replied calmly. Usually, meals were out of the question when things got busy at Willow Creek Clinic.
Sometimes, they didn't even have tfor breakfast.
Yolanda had many ways to make money, but she hadn't taken over Willow Creek Clinic for that reason. As long
as Healing Haven was a legitimate clinic, she didn't mind if they attracted patients by their means.
"What positive thinking, Ms. Henderson..." Dunstan muttered, still feeling frustrated. But since the boss wasn't
worried, there was no need for him to get worked up either. "If it were me, I'd definitely go have a word with their
boss!"
"You're too hot-headed," Yolanda commented. She took a sip of her tea. "Being impulsive is also prohibited,
especially in a clinic."
"Understood. I'll be more careful from now on!" Dunstan replied. He was now fully obedient to Yolanda's advice.
Sometimes, her words had even more sway than those of Derek.
"I'd better get back to work. | still need to sort out those 400 packs of herbal medicine today."
A commotion at the front entrance caught his attention as he spoke and began heading toward the back.
"Doctor! Where's the doctor? My friend needs help! It seems like his appendicitis is acting up!"
Hearing this, Dunstan immediately turned back toward the examination area. "What's wrong? Quickly, get the
patient onto the bed over here!" he instructed while grabbing the stethoscope from the desk to examine the
patient.
Willow Creek Clinic differed from most traditional medicine clinics in that while it specialized in traditional
medicine, it also incorporated modern medical practices. This made it a go-to place for patients with acute
conditions, as they knew they could receive more comprehensive care here.
