............"Screech...!"A car came to a stop in front of a large estate. The entrance stood grand, equipped with multiple cameras and guards looking sharp as the car halted."Open the gates!" When a lovely face appeared alongside a beautiful voice, the guards eased up and opened the entrance.The car passed through into a pavement adorned with glistening crystalline stones, each catching the sunlight and casting subtle reflections.Inside, the estate unfolded across a vast 35,000 square meters. A sense of space and tranquility permeated the surroundings.As the car traversed the path, it was bordered by a profusion of flowers on either side, their colors blending into a vibrant tapestry. The artistic lawns and ponytail trees added a touch of natural elegance.It circled around a thoughtfully designed fountain featuring a statue of an old man in a contemplative pose, water gracefully dropping from his palm. The soothing sound of water added to the serene atmosphere.After smoothly
............"Oh, come on! Big sis, that hurt my feelings a little, and why are you apologizing to this little twerp?" Aryan Vasudeva stood in the opulent Grand Hall, his disdainful gaze fixed on Aarav, who stood uncomfortably in modest attire.Maya, torn between her brother and the guest, wore a conflicted expression."And who are you, trash? How dare you try to fool my big sis!" Aryan's voice reverberated through the room, his posture radiating disdain."Aryan, please be respectful to Mr. Veridian. He's not someone you can belittle. Get that into your thick skull!" Maya's tone grew stern, frustration lining her face as her little brother continued to insult Aarav in front of her."Sis, why are you getting angry at me for this trash? You probably got fooled by this scammer. Look at his clothes; they're all dirt cheap!" Aryan Vasudeva pointed accusingly at Aarav, his eyes scanning the fabric with an air of superiority.Silently enduring the humiliation, Aarav felt the weight of disda
............"This is...!" Aarav stood there, sensing a sudden resonance in his body. Delving deeper, he understood something inside the room, making his divine energy react."Please come in, Mr. Veridian!" Maya, entering inside, gestured for Aarav to enter the room, observing his hesitation."Ohh, yes." Aarav snapped back to his senses upon hearing Maya's words and followed her inside.The interior featured a unique color palette that harmonized with the soothing atmosphere. Pots with various plants caught Aarav's eye, and with a glance, he identified them as high-level herbs, recognizing their potential usefulness in his hands.Apart from that, a simple table and a reclining chair occupied the space.A painting hung behind them on the wall, and as Aarav's gaze fixed on it, he once again felt a tingling sensation, prompting him to take a closer look at the artwork."Are you interested in that painting, Mr. Veridian?" Maya asked with a small smile, noting Aarav's focused attention o
............"What's going on? Why is the room vibrating...!" Maya, standing outside, felt the mysterious disturbance and grew curious about what was unfolding inside."Knock...knock...!!"Maya gently tapped on the door, right after the room stopped vibrating."Yes, Ms. Vasudeva!" Aarav opened the door, looking at Maya with a puzzled expression."Ummn...are you ready, Mr. Veridian!" Maya asked, deciding not to probe about the earlier disturbance in the room."Ahhh...yes, I am ready. Please bring your grandfather here, along with the herbs I mentioned before!" Aarav nodded, briefly forgetting the reason for his visit. Seeing Maya, he remembered that he was there to treat her grandfather, gesturing for her to bring him for the treatment."Ohh...yes, please give me a moment!" Maya smiled and went back to bring Allen Vasudeva.A moment later, she brought him with her, but there were also a familiar and two unfamiliar presences with them."Haha, Mr. Veridian! You got me anxious waiting fo
............Suddenly getting an idea, Aarav cast a provocative gaze at them."How about we make it interesting? If I manage to completely cure Mr. Allen here, you all must bow in worship whenever our paths cross in the future!" Aarav suggested, a mocking grin playing on his lips.Aryan, visibly angered, retorted, "And what if you fail, huh?""If I fail," Aarav responded with a sly smile, "I'll bow to you three and call you grandpa. So, are you up for the challenge, or are you chickening out?""Hehe... who's chickening out now? Alright, the bet is on. Just remember, you started this bet, so no one can accuse us of bullying you later!" Arjun exchanged glances with Dr. Hughes, both nodding as he turned to Aarav, giving him the same provoking smile, accepting the bet."Great... Mr. Allen and Maya will witness this bet so no one can go back on their words!" Aarav grinned widely, seeing them fall into his trap.Both Allen and Maya nodded in agreement."Alright, please enter the room and l
............Arjun shook his head in denial, muttering, "This has to be some trick. It can't be true!"Dr. Hughes, skeptical, crossed his arms, saying, "Miracles don't just happen. There has to be a scientific explanation for this."Aryan, frustrated, argued, "There's no way mere herbs and words can cure someone completely. It's absurd!"Arjun's cold and angry voice cut through the room, "Hey, Trash, what game are you playing? Explain, or you'll know what happens when you offend the Vasu family."Dr. Hughes, still skeptical, insisted, "We need evidence and proper medical examinations. This is too unbelievable."Aarav, calm in the face of doubt, said, "Sometimes, things happen beyond our understanding. Miracles exist in simplicity."Maya, overcome with emotions, blurted out, "But Grandpa is healed! I can't believe it, but it's true!"Aryan, Arjun, and Dr. Hughes exchanged doubtful looks, unwilling to accept the seemingly miraculous cure."Master Vasudeva, let me do a checkup on you. I
............(Aria Veridian POV)"Ahhh... so boring. Seriously, when is my brother coming back?" I sighed, throwing my hands in the air as I lounged on the worn-out couch after savoring the warmth of the breakfast he specially made for me."Oh, what's this card?" I recalled seeing it on the slightly cluttered table. Grabbing it, I discovered it was his credit card, and strangely, he left the PIN code too."Why would he leave this behind?" I wondered, thinking he might have forgotten it amidst the morning rush."Ahhh, maybe he left it for me!" I mumbled, realizing he intentionally left the card for me.Looking at the small piece of paper with the pin code, I almost missed, and understanding that my brother left it for me, a mix of emotions overcame me – a blend of gratitude, confusion, and a touch of melancholy."Ahhh, Big brother. I really...really love you. I hope I can repay you for everything you did for me!" I muttered, hugging the soft pillow tightly, my fingers tracing the edge
............'Ohhh...no...this is bad, what should I do!' My legs almost gave up on me, and my body shivered unconsciously as I started to panic, unable to think of any bright ideas in this terrifying situation.Feeling extremely terrified, I hesitated for a moment, my eyes widening as I took a step back in fear."Clannnk...!"Unintentionally, my foot stepped on something hard, creating a sudden loud clank noise that echoed through the dimly lit alley.The three scary men turned abruptly towards me, their eyes narrowing with curiosity and suspicion sparked by the unexpected sound."Oh, what's this?" one of them grumbled, eyeing me suspiciously. His gaze felt like icy fingers crawling down my spine.Panicking, my breath became rapid, and my heart pounded in my chest like a drum."Whoosh...!"I managed to take three hurried steps, but before I could get any further, a strong grip seized me from behind, halting my escape."Trying to run, eh?" sneered one of the men, his voice dripping w
