“Responsible? He’s a crazy person now! Even the doctor said he’s incurable! How the fuck are you going to be ‘responsible’ for him now?” Mrs. Hart continued screaming at him.She had only managed to conceive and give birth to one child. Now that her son was finally all grown up, he was suddenly declared clinically insane. She was already in her mid-fifties. Her son meant everything to her.Connor also looked at Isaac with pleading eyes. He felt awful about everything, but he still trusted Isaac. After all, it was his own decision to send Cameron to Isaac. Now that something had happened to his son, he couldn’t push the blame all onto Isaac either.“I will cure Cameron,” Isaac said softly.Just then, Dr. Spade suddenly laughed. “Excuse me, sir, but with my 30 years of experience in the field, I can tell you that Mr. Hart Jr.’s insanity can’t be cured that easily.”“Apothecary, let’s go in and take a look,” Isaac said, ignoring Ian altogether. He waved his hand, and Harry followed him in
“Mr. Garten, how certain are you that your method will work?” Connor asked, glancing at Isaac with a pained expression on his face.If he didn’t let Cameron go, at least their son would still be alive. If he let Cameron go, what if he died, just as Silvia feared?“Fifty percent. This is the fastest method I can think of and the only way to reverse this,” Isaac said in a low voice.“A—Alright then, I’ll trust you. Dr. Spade, please bring them to the morgue!” Connor said, gritting his teeth and making his decision.“Mr. Hart, please reconsider! It’s just too risky! And there aren’t any other previous cases of insanity that have been cured this way before. These two bastards may not even know what they’re talking about!” Ian anxiously said.What he said was mostly true. However, it was also because he wanted to use the opportunity of being Cameron’s doctor to get closer to Connor.Mrs. Hart, on the other hand, fell to the ground and started throwing a huge tantrum on the floor, crying and
Connor walked up to Silvia and looked at her coldly, saying, “If Mr. Garten can’t cure our son, then no one else in the world can do so. If you don’t know anything, then keep your mouth shut and wait here! If our son ends up dying, then there’s nothing I can say because that’s my fate. No one else is to blame.”Connor had always been the calm and steady one, but even now, he was seething with anger. Mrs. Hart was terrified and dared not move a muscle. Even Ian dared not make a fuss anymore.A janitor came along and set up an umbrella and a few chairs. Connor, his wife, and his secretary waited under the shade.There was nothing Ian could do but leave, no matter how much he didn’t want to.It got dark. The building was still silent without a single peep. Occasionally, the trio would get spooked by a wild cat hissing and meowing in the bushes.Sometime past midnight, just as Connor and the others were on the verge of falling asleep, they all suddenly heard a chilling scream from inside.
Mrs. Hart couldn’t thank Isaac and Harry enough. She even invited them over for a meal, but they politely rejected her.Cameron wanted to leave with Isaac at first. However, seeing the longing expression on both Connor’s and his wife’s faces, Isaac laughed and said to him, “Go back with your parents. I’m sure you will achieve great things if you manage to follow in your father’s footsteps.”Cameron’s eyes turned red when he heard those words.Last night, he had seen with his own eyes how Isaac brought out each and every corpse in the morgue, shifted them to a different place, and then covered them up with white clothes.It was precisely these actions that triggered something in Cameron and made him come back to his senses.However, he really wanted to continue following Isaac around.“Isaac, don’t you want me anymore?” Cameron asked, his eyes reddening with tears.Isaac rolled his eyes and smacked him on the back of his neck. He chided him and said, “Excuse me, but why are you so eager
However, Emily quickly realized that something was amiss. She got up and walked over to the president’s office, where Allegra was in the middle of a phone call.After she put down her phone, Allegra said, “Is something the matter, Emily?” Emily went forward and went over what had just happened. Frowning, she said, “Ms. Booth, is there an issue here? Our project is such a huge one, and we’re not lacking funds. Why would they be unwilling to collaborate with us? Why don’t we talk to Mr. Garten about this?”Allegra immediately waved the idea off. “There’s no need to inform Isaac. We can’t go to him whenever we have a problem. How about this? Why don’t you make some inquiries and ask a few more companies?”“We’re going to start operations soon. If we don’t have the materials, it will be a waste to get the heavy machinery running.” Allegra looked to be in low spirits. “Alright, then I’ll put my ear to the ground. I’ll report back to you later.” After seeing that Allegra was unwilling
The second Isaac finished speaking, Old Brooks’ face turned pale. “Then let’s both have a look.” Connor waved a hand and turned around with Isaac.Isaac was the one to push the door open and the first to enter the private room. Looking around, he found several men sitting around the table and a handful of gaudily dressed young women. One of the men currently there drinking, a woman in his embrace, was a red-faced Andrew Booth. Beside him was a trembling and hunched Barry Cox.Was this really Barry?Isaac’s eyes narrowed, and a freezing aura emanated from him.A while ago, he’d gone back to Barry’s old place to treat his son. Barry had said he would settle his family’s affairs before returning to Cloud City to find him back then. Why was he now here without letting Isaac know?The men around the table all seemed to have imbibed a lot. The middle-aged men were all red in the face. Since they all wore white shirts, it looked like they were influential people of some sort. At that
“I’m the vice director of the Urban Management Bureau; how’s that for you? Trust me. I can get you dragged out of here with just one phone call.” Seeing that Isaac was silent, the bald man assumed he was scared. He pointed at the other three men and said coldly, “This is the head of the Law Enforcement Unit, this man heads the Traffic Bureau, and this one the prison. If you know what’s good for you, you better apologize and get the fuck out.”“Oh, I see. So everyone here’s an influential person.” Isaac grinned.“We’re good pals with Mr. Brooks, too,” the bald man huffed. “So I don’t care what business you’re in because you fucked up today.” With the admiring way the woman in his arms was looking at him, the guy became even more arrogant. However, no one noticed that Andrew’s face had turned grey.“Mr. Brooks, is it? Mr. Brooks, why don’t you come inside?” Isaac turned to look outside.Old Brooks immediately came in, his head bowed and body trembling. With him was the general mana
Barry changed his clothes before entering Isaac and Connor’s private room. He had never dreamed that he would be sitting at the same table as the top dog in Southland and having dinner with him. Not only that, Connor’s wife and son were here as well.In the other room, Old Brooks was still on the ground, body trembling.“Mr. Brooks, he’s gone now. You can stand up, can’t you? Who’s that punk, anyway? He seems so haughty,” Old Brooks’ cousin from Seascape asked in displeasure.At the same time, the supposedly influential men in the room felt their legs shaking from fear. They surrounded Andrew.“Mr. Booth, hurry. Quick, call your uncle to come and save us. Th—Things are getting serious.” The bald man scrabbled at Andrew, his voice tearful.Andrew gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with coldness. He took out his phone and called Edward.Right then, the sound of footsteps came from outside. Louis marched in with several men in black jackets.The men looked up to watch this and su
