Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 2850

They found themselves having sacks slipped over their heads! It was clear that Joseph didn’t want them to see where they were going… and when they finally had their sacks removed, they found themselves standing before a lonely house surrounded by desolation… Without knowing this place properly, it was evident that escape was nigh impossible… No wonder he had been able to remain hidden for so long!

Either way, when Joseph finally began inspecting Jacob’s body, Ellen couldn’t help but gulp a little. After all, she had simply applied some allergen drugs on Jacob’s skin, and if Joseph was a competent doctor, then they’d surely be found out in no time!

As expected, it didn’t take long for him to ask, “…You’re saying the doctor only gave him ten days left to live?”

Nodding in response, Ellen retained her calm façade as she replied, “Yeah… The doctor living on the bridge in town said it, and everyone says he’s a great doctor… However…”

“…Go on.”

“…Well… Brother was honestly a fit man before this but… I don’t know how he suddenly ended up this way. Sadly, the doctor on the bridge was the only person we could afford to visit, so… Anyway, how’s Brother looking? If he can be saved with just a bit more money, then I’d like to cut our deal while we can.”

“…What are you even saying? I just asked a question. He’s in terrible condition. Now wait here while I go get more things for the diagnosis.”

After leaving the room, Joseph grabbed his phone and began calling the doctor that Ellen had mentioned… and the second the phone was answered, he was quick to ask, “Hey, you’re treating a brother and sister right now, right? The brother that has a simple skin disease? Why’d you tell them that he only had ten days left to live?”

Shaking his head, Joseph then cleared his throat and began ‘inspecting’ Jacob’s body again… and after a while, he was prompted to say, “…Forget ten, he’ll probably die in a week if he doesn’t receive treatment. You’re lucky you found me, otherwise you’d never gain access to the expensive drug that I’m about to use on him. With that said, be sure you keep your part of the deal.”

“I-if you can cure him, then I’ll do anything you say! But… s-show me the results first. Otherwise, I’m not sure I can trust you…” bargained Ellen. She was doing this to make it seem like she still wasn’t fine with selling her body for free, which would further lower any remaining suspicions that Joseph had.

It worked, of course, and since Joseph already knew that the infection would go away on its own after a while, he simply smiled and applied some medicine before saying, “There, he’ll be fine in a bit. Now then… Why don’t you play a game with me…?”

Watching as Ellen got pulled into another room, Jacob couldn’t help but anxiously exchange glances with the frightened Ellen… But sadly, they knew that they had no choice but to continue playing along!
