"Slow down, my love! I can't keep up with you moving so fast!"A girl's melodious voice sounded as Henry opened the door to his apartment.Thunk!In an instant, his body tensed and his heart raced wildly."Isn't that Darcie's voice?"Darcie Baker was the first girl Henry had met since moving to Waterside City six years ago.Since their first meeting, she had been exceptionally kind to Henry, even offering to let him stay in the same apartment.They started dating two years later. But to this day, on their fourth anniversary, Henry had never laid a hand on Darcie, let alone kissed her.Aside from dining out and going to the movies, the furthest they had gone was holding hands.After graduating from college two years ago, Darcie had become a bank teller. Meanwhile, Henry, who had studied Ancient Culture at the University of Waterside, had completed his bachelor's and doctoral degrees in just five years.He has been teaching at the same campus since a year ago."Oh, darling, you're so na

"Aunt, how is Uncle? What happened to him?"Henry hugged his aunt who was sitting in a chair next to the hospital bed.Hearing the question, Harriette's cries only grew louder."Aunt, it's okay. Everything will be fine! Tell me what happened!""The doctor examined..."Harriette choked back her tears and continued, "The crash not only injured his chest, but also caused problems with his heart. If he doesn't get surgery soon, the doctor isn't sure if Nick will survive for another three days!"What?Henry held his aunt even tighter. He could see that his uncle was quite injured, but he hadn't expected his condition to be this bad."But don't worry! If everything goes according to plan, your uncle will be undergoing surgery tomorrow morning."When Henry heard the word "surgery," he knew that the cost would probably be considerable. But he didn't care. He just wanted his uncle to be all right."Auntie, I'm going to look for a loan; hopefully I can get the money before the surgery tomorrow!

Henry's answer satisfied Naomi, but it didn't sit well with the three men."Young man, I know you want money! But don't think you can cheat Mrs. Richardson in front of us! I'm going to give you a chance to leave right now, or we're going to take firm action!" Ruben declared.He still believed that Henry was only pretending. Therefore, even though his lips told him to release Henry, he reached for his phone to call security and have Henry dragged to jail."Doctor, I know that in this hospital, your words are like a law that can make or break someone's life. And I know that you don't trust me. In that case, why don't we make a bet? If I can't cure Miss Isabella, you can punish me as much as you want. But if it turns out that I succeed..." Henry stopped speaking."Say what you want!" Ruben urged impatiently."You need to apologize to me and fire this man!" Henry pointed at Andrew."What? How dare you! If you try anything with me, I'll kill you!" Andrew moved forward to strike Henry, but

"What?"Henry had never expected Cloyd to be so ruthless."He not only looks authoritative, but also very decisive. There's no point in me explaining anything to him. I'm not sure he's going to listen," Henry thought. Nevertheless, he remained calm.Besides, wasn't this the right moment to test the extent of the power the god Athar had given him?With such thoughts in mind, Henry clenched his fists slightly."If they dare to touch me, I won't hesitate to fight back."One of the four bodyguards grabbed Henry roughly."Kid, who told you to bother our boss's family? You'll have to face the consequences!"But before he could carry out his intention, Henry noticed a subtle movement in Isabella's fingers. He quickly raised one of his hands."Wait! Look at this!" he pointed at the girl.His words silenced everyone. A moment later, their eyes were fixed on someone lying on the bed.Naomi immediately broke free of Cloyd's embrace and hurried to the bed. Isabella's eyelids slowly opened and the

"Don't say a word to him!"Suddenly, a cry echoed from the front door.This time, four burly men entered the lobby.Each held a blunt weapon.Judging by their uniforms, they appeared to be security guards, similar to the ones Henry had tossed aside earlier.Of the four security guards, the man at the front appeared to be the most senior and authoritative.His gaze was piercing, and from his face, he seemed to be approaching his fifties. Compared to the other three men, this man appeared to be the strongest.Seeing the reinforcements, the security officer lying on the floor quickly got up and joined them."Mr. Ferguson, he... he's a troublemaker!"The man named Walton Ferguson paid little attention to the security officer's words. He strode toward Henry with an air of arrogance."Are you here to cause trouble?" The middle-aged man asked dismissively."Sorry! You must be mistaken! I'm not here to cause trouble. I just came to meet someone.""Then you must be a criminal! No one comes to
