The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 919 Try It



Isla had no respect for Damian.

At the end of the day, he was just a doctor, and not even from a well-off family. Isla's family and her husband's family were both second-tier families in D.C. with real power.

Damian, being just a doctor from a small clinic, didn't warrant any respect from her!

Her disregard for him made Damian's face feel like it was on fire. But there was little he could do because Isla's family was influential in D.C., a place where he couldn't afford to make enemies.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Despite being one of D.C.'s top doctors, it was all just reputation; he was basically an outsider with decent skills. He'd spent decades building his reputation, and if he ticked off Isla, she could easily ruin his hard work overnight.

If he ended up in bad terms with her family, he might lose everything, even face jail time for fraud!

Damian knew he had to tread carefully. He couldn't confront Isla directly, but he had to make sure Daniel, who was also a country doctor and younger to boot, didn't outshine him!

If Daniel actually treated Isla's

stomach issue successfully, he

might become quite the sensation in

D.C. That was something Damian

simply couldn't let happen. He

couldn't allow such a thing!

So, he began plotting. His goal? To take down Daniel, if not literally, then by tarnishing his name and driving him out of D.C. once and for all!

After thinking about it, he decided to make Daniel perform the treatment, and then he'd set him up for failure, making sure Daniel knew his pain!

"Isla, if this country doctor says he can help treat your stomach pain let's all be witnesses and have him do it right here! I want to see if this scan artist can actually cure you in three minutes!

If he succeeds, I'll pay the hundred dollars for your session. But if he fails, how should we deal with him? Afterall, he's the one treating you and wasting your time!"

Damian, playing the clever fox, knew if he wanted to hurt Daniel, he'd have to let Isla decide the punishment.

He could see she didn't trust Daniel and only got mad when she heard the quote for treatment.
