I Am The One Chapter 23 - Where Shall I Take You?
Henry took off his jacket and wrapped it around Hallie's lower body.Since the girl was very drunk, Henry had no choice but to carry her.As they left the restaurant and walked along the sidewalk, everyone who saw them couldn't help but comment."Wow, that young man is really romantic! He's carrying his drunk girlfriend!""It's very hard to find a responsible young man like him these days! That girl is so lucky! She must have done a million good deeds in her past life!""They look so compatible! One is handsome and the other is very beautiful! May heaven bless them with many offspring!"Not only Henry, but Hallie heard these comments as well.She wrapped her arms around Henry's neck and was in his embrace, feeling unexpectedly comfortable and peaceful, a feeling she had never experienced from anyone before."My dear, listen to what people are saying! They're all praising us! You should feel lucky to have a girl as beautiful as me!"Hallie's face was flushed from the alcohol, so she co
I Am The One Chapter 24 - You Must Know This Is Our Last Meeting!
"Oh, I almost forgot something!" Harriette said.Carrying a bag and placing it on the table next to Hallie, she continued, "I just went shopping. I don't know what kind of clothes you like, but I'm sure this will fit you!""Auntie, why are you doing this? You shouldn't go out of your way for me!" Hallie said with a regretful and grateful expression at the same time.The cold expression that had been on her face for so long vanished without a trace. What was visible was the face of a young girl, full of care and charm."What are you saying?" Harriette said, holding Hallie's cheek lovingly. "You helped us pay for my husband's medical expenses, which I'm sure were very expensive! If it weren't for that, I wouldn't be able to express my gratitude to you!"Harriette thought Hallie was Mr. Richardson's daughter. That's why, without Henry having to ask her, Harriette immediately treated Hallie very nicely.These words made Hallie furrow her brow. "I don't even know this family or have helped
I Am The One Chapter 25 - You Haven't Paid Yet!
Immediately after the group left, a message arrived on Henry's phone.Ding![All administrative matters have been taken care of; you will start working at Fairfield College next week!I can't help you anymore because I have to go back abroad.For the time being, if there's anything you need, please see Oliver! He will help you while I'm gone!]After reading the message, Henry went to Rainford College and packed all his belongings, mostly books and some antique items.Then he went to his apartment.Henry's apartment, which was actually Darcie's apartment, but Henry paid half of the monthly expenses, was on the third floor of a reasonably decent building.Henry climbed the stairs with a hint of uneasiness in his heart.They hadn't had a heart-to-heart since two days ago, when he'd caught the girl with another guy.Although Henry still harbored considerable anger and disappointment toward her, he wanted to end their relationship on good terms.After all, Darcie had been kind to him for t
I Am The One Chapter 26 - Magic Shadow
As soon as Henry entered the door of the apartment, he felt a negative aura pressing down on him, as if he were in a closed room filled with smoke.Not only did it feel unhealthy, but it also made it difficult for anyone inside to breathe.The next moment, Henry's ears caught the panicked voice of a young woman coming from one of the bedrooms."Mother, please wait a moment! I'll go buy the medicine," the young woman said as she placed a warm compress on Margret's forehead."Mia, hurry! I can't stand it anymore!""Wait, Mother! I'm leaving right now!"Before she left the room, Henry had entered.In front of him lay a woman who looked very old.With dark circles around her eyes, she looked ten or twenty years older than her actual age.When Henry had met her a month ago, she had a healthy and slightly plump body. But now, aside from the skin clinging to her body, there wasn't much fat left on her face and body."You...! Why are you here?" The young woman became very angry when she saw H
I Am The One Chapter 27 - The Drugstore
With a bottle in his hand, Henry hurried to a traditional medicine shop that the girl had pointed out."Follow the road next to this building for about 300 meters, then turn right to the end of the road! On the left side of the street you will see a shop with a strange appearance, that's the place!" Mia said earlier.Henry had turned to the right from the alley.As he was about to reach his destination, he half ran.About half a kilometer later, he saw an old shop on the left side of the street.At the top of the store was a sign that read "Traditional Medicine".As Henry opened the door, the sound of a bell rang above his head.The first thing he saw was a cash register filled with tightly sealed half-liter clay jars.There were 20 such jars in total.When he turned his head to the side, his eyes fell on wooden shelves filled with large glass jars.Inside these jars were plants, leaves, and roots of various kinds, soaked in liquid, each jar containing a different colored liquid than
I Am The One Chapter 28 - Death as Expiation for Sins
Henry put his hand to his nose and smelled a strong and foul odor coming from the room."That smell! No doubt, this is the place!"As Henry entered the room, the first natural reaction he felt was that his stomach was churning and he might vomit at any moment.And how could he not?There were carcasses of pigs, snakes, and other animals lying on the floor.Meanwhile, at the far end, there were dozens of jars filled with thick liquid containing human hair.From their color and shape, they were definitely the hairs of several people."Damn it! These must be the hairs of the people the old man used for his magic!"Henry was about to approach the jars when he felt something move quickly toward him from the side.Woosh!The attack was incredibly fast, even faster than the attack by the security guards who had surrounded him at the Emgrand Hotel yesterday.If he didn't have the Seed of God within him, the attack would have undoubtedly crushed his organs or even caused his death.In response
I Am The One Chapter 29 - Another Request
For a moment, Henry's body tightened.He couldn't believe what had just happened.Someone had borrowed Henry's hand to end his own life."You're a good man, old man! May you rest in peace!" Henry said as he placed his hand on the old man's face and closed his eyelids."How is that? The only person I could ask just died! What should I do to find the magical object?" Pondering various options, Henry returned to the storage room behind the old shop.Pinching his nose with the index finger and thumb of his left hand, Henry walked around the room looking for clues. But until a dozen minutes later, he saw nothing.Just as his heart was about to give out, his eyes fell on a pile of jars containing liquid and human hair.Suddenly, his mind remembered the bottle he had brought earlier."Isn't the shadow in that bottle still there?"Henry rushed to the front room to retrieve the bottle.As he re-entered the storage room, the bottle vibrated quite strongly.Although he found it strange, a glimme
I Am The One Chapter 30 - Call from Mr. Richardson
"I didn't ask you to be her boyfriend! I just want someone to protect her! If you're willing to do that for me, I'll be very grateful!"Hearing such a request, Henry seemed hesitant.On the one hand, he would gladly help Mia or anyone else in need, as long as he could do something for them.But if he had to take care of Mia, he was afraid that he might not be able to do that.Besides not knowing Mia yet, he wasn't sure if the girl needed his help."Miss, Mia is not a child anymore! I'm sure she can take care of herself!"Margret shook her head."No, you don't know the truth! I've never told her how her father died!You know what, he died because of magic!That's why I need your help!Besides being a good person, you also have knowledge of magic!I can die peacefully anytime if someone like you takes care of her!"Her husband died because of magic?Henry furrowed his brow.Why did she not tell him earlier?"I'm sorry, I can't," Henry said.Then he bowed his head for a moment.His face
