Chapter 1957 Shaneâs Unexpected Encounter
Chapter 1957
Ever since he had started working, Shane often slacked off, only to read
novels.
Out of all the novels he read, dozens of them had the premise of masters
emerging from the mountains with their opening on how the protagonist
used the wornâout trick to approach the heroine.
As a result, he could only rely on this for his approach. Who would have
expected that it would work, even though itâs an old trick?
Sonia was surprised. After shooting a glance at her best friend, Rhea, she
turned to meet Shaneâs gaze, even grabbing his hand in anxiety.

Whoa! Such an action caused his heart to flutter. Could this actually work?
Could my luck with women be turning around? Did the authors of the novels
lie?
âShane, judging from your unusual build andâ¦. different appearance, you are definitely a master from the mountain,â she said in one breath. âYou guessed

it right. My grandpaâs critically ill. Would you be able to save him?â

It was only then that Shane realized that he had made a correct guest. Man,
Iâm such a lucky one. âYe-â
He was about to answer with confidence when Sonia interrupted, continuing,
âMy familyâs not an easy one to handle. So, if you can cure my grandpa, a
handsome reward will be waiting for you. However, if youâre a fraud, youâll
meet your downfall.
Shane tensed up at that. Smiling, he quickly changed his approach. âWhat I
meant is destiny has brought us together. Iâm probably meant to help you. I
just remembered that I have urgent matters to attend to, so why donât we-
Screw it. I better split while I can. I barely know anything about medicine.
Shane knew his place well enough to know that life did not imitate art. He
wasnât a divine doctor from the mountains. If he was caught masquerading
as one, the consequences would be severe!

As he was about to leave, the woman in white yoga pants grabbed his arm,
feeling agitated. âShane,â she asked, âhave we met before?â
âWhat do you mean?â
Had a beauty like her approached him in such a manner moments ago, he
would have been ecstatic! However, he now responded with an air of
caution, âMiss, donât hit on handsome guys with such a method. I donât know
you, so thereâs no point clinging to me like a leech.â
He tried to break free from her grip to avoid being dragged back to practice
medicine and run the risk of being caught.
Yet, she exclaimed in excitement, âYou must be Manuelâs junior, arenât you?â
Manuel? Shane was taken aback. So, itâs not my dashing looks that you
chatted me up.
âSonia, I think your grandpa might just be saved!â she continued. âManuel is a
divine doctor with unparalleled skills. If this man here is his junior, his skills

should be just as good.â
Shane was speechless yet again. What kind of logic is that? Even Einstein and
Socrates canât hold a candle to you!
âRhea, are you sure?â Such words made Sonia just as excited. She tightly
gripped Shaneâs hand, and as her eyes sparkled, she asked, âSir, are your
medical skills and those of your senior really as awesome as what Rhea
said?â
âWell, our average level is rather high. Think of it as an eightâstory tall
building.â He reluctantly released Soniaâs hand but was adamant about
telling the truth. With Emmanuelâs skills comparable to a 15âstory building and
mine only at the first story, averaging it out brings us to the equivalent of an
eightâstory tall building.
âThen, quickly save my grandpa!â At that, Sonia yanked Shane along with her.
âMy father also added that my grandpa has only three more hours to live,â
she continued, by way of explanation. âIf we delay any longer, weâd be too
late!â

Rhea had no idea that Emmanuel was in Yeringham and never thought of
reaching out for help.
If Shane could admit it, he did not want to leave with them, but it was hard f
him to refuse when the two innocent ladiesâSonia and Rheaâyanked him
along.
Iâd have to take the risks to reap the rewards. I mean, nothing ventured,
nothing gained. Ah, forget it. If itâs meant to be, itâs meant to be.
Caught being a rock and a hard place, he eventually decided to take the risk
and go for it! My medical skills? Sorry, I have none!
Not long after the ladies pulled Shane into the Toma familyâs place,
Emmanuel also arrived with Jake, only to be held back by the guards.
âMy apologies, Mr. Fletcher. Old Mr. Toma is critically ill, so the Tomas arenât
welcoming any visitors.â

âWhat? Heâs critically ill?â Jake paled. Turning to Emmanuel, he continued, âMr.
Lowe, sh*t has just hit the fan.â
