Chapter 1262 Being Lied To Taylor paused, his eyes wide in disbelief. If it weren't for the fact that the sky hadn't fully darkened he might have thought he was dreaming. What was going on? Reuben was practicing martial arts when he heard hurried footsteps outside. He stopped and wiped the sweat off his brow before looking up at Taylor. "What's the matter? Why are you in such a rush?" By this time, Noah had arrived as well. He didn't understand why Taylor was in such a panic and looked over at him.
Taylor, now calmer, decided to address the situation methodically without mentioning the fake doctor. "Dad, weren't you feeling weak in your limbs? How are you suddenly able to practice martial arts?" "I've recovered," Reuben replied with a hearty laugh, clearly in good spirits. "I feel particularly strong today." Taylor frowned. "Recovered? Dad, I need to tell you that the person who treated you earlier wasn't Dr. Harper's assistant but was an imposter.

Please allow Dr. Harper to examine you again." Noah's face turned serious as he understood the gravity of the situation. “A fake dogtor? No wonder you asked Dr. Harper those questions earlier.
"Check the hsurveillance footage right away. Zachery, call the police. I want to know who has the nerve to fool us like this." Zachary, who hadn't liked Wynter ever since she arrived, was eager to take action. Now it made sense she was an imposter after all! "Mr. Whitman, I'll handle it right away!" Zachary was more proactive than anyone at times liked this Reuben's smile fell, and his face darkened at the mention of calling the police. "Enough! Who said you should call the police? "Haven't you seen how much better I am feeling? My limbs feel strong, and I can get out of bed and walk around now. Why do you want to call the police?" "Dad, I-"Noah tried to explain.
Reuben waved his hand dismissively. "You don't know the full story, so don't try to lecture me. Leave your office tactics at the door, they're not welcin our house. The person who treatedwas not a fake doctor.
"Though young, her medical skills are exceptional. Her acupuncture and massage techniques are top-notch. She might even be better than most traditional medicine practitioners in Hawford!" Chester felt like he had heard this somewhere before. Many elderly people fell for scams like this.
He couldn't help but chuckle softly before explaining to Noah, "Mr Reuben may have encountered a professional scam artist in traditional medicine, it's easy to fake results.
"A few acupuncture peedles and spsychological suggestions can make someone feel more energetic temporarily.

"In Hawford, there are very few skilled acupuncturists, and they are all m elderly with years of experience. It's unlikely that a young person could be that proficient." Given the emphasis on practice and accumulated experience in medicine, Chester's point made sense.
Even Noah was curious about what kind of scammer could foot Reuben. "Dad, how about you let Dr. Harper give you another thorough check-up first?" Noah's main concern was Reuben's health. Everything else could be dealt with later.
Reuben understood his sons' concern, so he glanced at Chester, "I know you mean well. If it puts your minds at ease, we can have another check-up." Chester sighed in relief before giving Noah a knowing look. At least Reuben wasn't duped too badly.
