The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 974

“What if my stomach still hurts after these two treatments?” Aaron asked, anxiety creeping into his voice.

“If your stomach still hurts after two treatments, I won’t charge you a single cent for any additional treatments!” Damian replied confidently.

Hearing this made Aaron feel a bit more at ease. He nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll send you another $1.5 million.”

As soon as Aaron agreed, Damian displayed his electronic payment details. With tears in his eyes, Aaron pulled out his phone to transfer the money, feeling like his heart was breaking with every tap.

By the time he finished, he had paid Damian a total of $3.5 million. That was a staggering amount!

For an average person in Washington, D.C., making just over $1,000 a month, $3.5 million was equivalent to nearly thirty years of salary! Despite this hefty sum, he still wasn’t sure if it would actually cure his stomach pain. What if he spent all that money and didn’t see any results? That would be a disaster.

Once the money was sent, Aaron noticed Damian wasn’t making any move to treat him. Panic set in.

“Damian, I’ve sent the money. When are you going to treat me? My stomach keeps getting worse! I can’t take the thought of these parasites in my belly any longer! If you don’t hurry up and get rid of them, your reputation as one of D.C.’s top doctors will be on the line!”

Damian didn’t seem rushed. After all, he wasn’t the one suffering—Aaron was.

Sure enough, after the needle went in, Aaron felt a noticeable decrease in the pain. For a brief moment, he could breathe easy.

But just as he began to relax, the pain shot back even stronger.

“Ah... oh no...” Aaron cried out in agony, his voice echoing through the room as he shuddered in discomfort.

After his scream subsided, he looked at Damian, clutching his stomach. “Damian, what’s going on? Your treatment didn’t help at all; it made my stomach hurt even more!”
