Everyone in the living room looked at Luke and Selina when the both of them walked in. Selina is an exceptionally beautiful woman, and Luke is also rather handsome. So when people saw the two of them, they thought they were a couple. Luke looked around the living room, and suddenly, he noticed a very attractive girl sitting on a sofa. That girl is at the age of twenty or twenty-one. She tied her hair in a ponytail. Her skin is white and smooth. She has a pointed chin and expressive eyes. She was dressed in a simple style, a white t-shirt and a pair of jeans. She is absolutely no less beautiful than Selina. “She is Ivanka. She is Xie Family’s daughter. Stop staring at her.” Selina said to Luke in a low voice. Selina then walked to Jake, the current head of the family, and said to him: “Sir, this is the doctor I mentioned before. His name is Luke.” Luke nodded at Jake slightly. After a moment’s silence, everyone in the room burst into laughter. “What? How old is this kid? Twenty? Is he a doctor? Are you serious?” “Selina, what were you thinking? How can he be a doctor?” Jake frowned and said: “Selina, maybe he is a doctor. But he is too young to be a good doctor.” Actually, he didn’t believe Luke was a doctor at all. He thought Luke was just a liar. Ivanka looked at Luke curiously, but soon, her curiosity became contempt. She didn’t think this young man is in any way special. And of course she didn’t believe he could cure brain cancer. Selina smiled bitterly at that time. She also began to question her judgement and she was regretting that she brought Luke here. Luke wore an indifferent expression when everyone was questioning his ability. He said calmly: “We have never met before. How do you know that I’m not a good doctor?” People laughed even harder after hearing what he said. “Young man, do you know what is this place? This is Xie Family! You are at the wrong place if you want to swindle money! We are not fools.” Evan said. He is a young man in Xie Family. Luke became angry. He glared at Evan, and suddenly, he flicked a sliver needle towards Evan, and Evan was hit by the needle. The next thing people knew, Evan stopped laughing and collapsed on the floor. He screamed in horror: “I can’t move! I can’t move!” People surrounded Evan to check on him. Only Selina looked at Luke. She remembered a few days ago, Luke also used this technique to deal with Snake. Jake was so shocked. At that time, the hunchbacked old man walked in. Jake said: “Peter, why are you here?” Peter is the butler of this villa. But he is not just a butler. He is also Jacob’s best friend. They went to war together when they were young. Peter has also been protecting Jacob over the years. Without Peter, Jacob would have been murdered long ago. So Peter also has a very high status in this family. Peter looked at Evan, and he seemed very shocked. He then looked at Luke and said: “Young man, now I know you are not an average person. Can you make Evan recover?” People were all shocked when they heard what Peter said. They didn’t know it was Luke who made Evan collapse on the ground. “You are a smart man.” Luke looked at Peter. He then walked to Evan and removed the needle. He said flatly: “Stand up. Do remember to think twice before you say anything out loud.” Evan then jumped up angrily. He wanted to quarrel with Luke, but he suddenly realized he was moving again, so his anger turned into excitement. He shouted: “I can move! I can move!” People in the living room were now looking at Luke in a completely different way. Selina also sighed with relief. She felt rather glad. Peter said: “Evan, you should really thank this young man. Without him, you would be forever paralyzed.” “Peter, what are you talking about? Who knows what kind of trick did he just use to make me fall down? I won’t thank him!” Evan still couldn’t believe Luke. Luke only shook his head and said to himself: idiot, and looked away. Suddenly, the door of a bedroom was pushed open, and a middle-aged doctor walked out. Jake then rushed to the doctor and asked: “Doctor, how is my father?” Doctor Hu sighed deeply and said: “It’s not very good.” People’s face all changed. Jake’s face crumpled. He couldn’t believe what he just heard. Selina said in a low voice: “Doctor Hu is the best doctor in this filed. Does it mean there is no hope at all?” Luke shook his head. He said: “Not necessarily. The fact that he can’t cure the patient doesn’t mean no one can cure the patient.” Doctor Hu heard what he said. He looked at Luke and frowned. “Who are you?” He asked.
