"Henry, since the first time I met you, I have trusted you! So I hope you won't ruin it!""Of course, Mr. Cloyd! I always stand by what I say! I am even willing to guarantee it with my own life if I lie or endanger Miss Isabella's safety!"After hearing Henry's sincerity, Cloyd finally made a decision."All right, everyone, follow me!"Hesitantly, the head of the Richardson family approached the door.Knock! Knock!"Master, are you all right?"But there was no answer from inside.Cloyd was a little worried. "Should I abandon my plan?" he wondered.Aware that the man was hesitating, Henry looked at him seriously and nodded to assure him that everything was all right.Cloyd put his hand on the door and knocked harder."Master, forgive me! Is everything okay?"As before, after a few seconds of waiting, there was still no response from inside.This time, Cloyd was worried.Not only was he worried that something might have gone wrong with Orin's treatment, but he was even more worried abou
With these words, Henry stared straight into Cloyd's face.Although Cloyd didn't want Henry to go too far with his guest, he reluctantly accepted the young man's challenge.For the sake of his daughter, he would do anything."Master, as Henry said, I will give you anything you want!" Cloyd bowed again, sincerely pleading for his daughter's recovery.Seeing this, a cunning light shone from Orin's face."I did not expect that my visit this time would bring such great benefits! This family is truly foolish, allowing me to manipulate them so easily!"He then looked at Henry and continued to speak in his heart. "But I can't let this rat live much longer, or he might cause me trouble later!"Orin closed his eyes and raised his face, pretending to be deep in thought."Cloyd, you made a big mistake by disobeying my orders! However, since you show a strong intention to rectify it, I will give you one more chance!"He opened his eyes and stared sharply at Cloyd, "Give me 1 billion dollars and l
Despite trying to choose his words carefully, Cloyd couldn't hide the disappointment on his face.He had hoped that this young man could help him persuade Master Dalbs to cure his daughter.Instead, he made the only person who could help his daughter leave.Before this, Cloyd had great faith in Henry.However, Orin, a renowned master healer, had gained recognition throughout the country over the years. How could Henry, a mere college professor, compare?Not only did Cloyd's faith in Henry begin to wane, but he felt a giant hammer strike his heart as he thought about his daughter's condition."Forgive me, my love! This is all my fault! I should have been able to protect you better!" he cried in his heart.While everyone else was drowning in sadness, Henry felt both joy and guilt.Joy, because he could finally get the old fraud out of the house.Guilt, however, for letting everyone sink into sadness and despair."Even Zane, who seemed so strong and resilient, looks like he has no hope!
Orin couldn't finish his words.What was happening in front of him was truly beyond his expectations.The Four Corners Illusion Spell is a protective spell placed at the four corners of a person or object.With this spell, anyone with malicious intentions towards the person or object will believe that they control or possess it.When in fact they only control it in their minds.When Orin ordered everyone to leave earlier, suspicion arose in Henry's heart."This is really strange! Why did he ask everyone to leave? If he really wants to heal Miss Isabella, couldn't he do it without all this drama?"So to protect Isabella, Henry pretended to tidy up the girl's bedsheets when he was actually casting his spell."Why? Are you surprised?" Henry grinned slyly."I can do it because I am a sorcerer too!"Just as Henry finished his words, Orin pulled a flat object out of his pocket and pointed it at Henry.Snap!The sound of a camera shutter from his phone was heard at the same time as the light
Disappointment was written all over Cloyd's face.However, a few moments later, he seemed to be deep in thought."Can you treat different diseases? I mean, you're an expert in ancient culture, right?I am curious if your knowledge system is sufficient to deal with modern problems?"Henry was a bit surprised by the question.Indeed, he possessed various knowledge about magic, potions, and if he accessed the archives in his mind, he might also have a complete set of medical knowledge about various diseases.Therefore, he said confidently, "Of course! Ancient treatments are reliable!If they're being neglected now, it's because the original knowledge of these treatments has started to disappear!Besides, mastering such treatments requires dedication and extremely high expertise!As fewer people study them, we'll find fewer of these types of treatments in the modern world!And to make matters worse, those who claim to have mastered ancient treatments are mostly just scammers looking for p
At 2:00 in the morning.When Henry arrived at his apartment, he packed some clothes.He didn't bring all his things because he wanted to go to Fairfield right away."No one will notice me if I leave now!"Henry locked the apartment door and put the key in an envelope, leaving it outside Margret's apartment door.With his suitcase in hand, he boarded the bus that would take him to Fairfield.After more than an hour, the bus began to enter the Fairfield area."No wonder Fairfield is the richest in Waterside! Even early in the morning like this, this city is still very lively!"In addition to the cars still moving on the streets, several nightclubs in some corners of the city were crowded with visitors.Their voices, combined with the thumping music played by the disc jockey, could be heard for hundreds of feet.Seeing this, Henry, who had initially thought of renting a hotel room, changed his mind."Didn't Margret give me a business card? Maybe I should go there right away!"After getti
For the next two hours, Henry cleaned the entire apartment: the living room, the bedroom, the bathroom, the kitchen, and the backyard.He also cleaned out the refrigerator and took out some food like vegetables, chicken, and eggs that were still usable.After cleaning all these ingredients, Henry turned on the stove and started cooking.In fact, Henry had a talent for cooking, a skill he inherited from his mother, as Harriett told him.As a result, the delicious aroma of stir-fry filled the kitchen in an instant.At that moment, Mia, still asleep in bed, suddenly felt disturbed by the tantalizing smell wafting into her nostrils.Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Mia woke up and stared into the kitchen."This food smells amazing! Who's cooking in the kitchen?"But before she could get off the couch, she was surprised again.Looking down at her body, she was still covered by a thick blanket, something she had never received in her life, except from her mother or her late father."Really? He cove
In the next fifteen minutes, they found themselves in a supermarket not far from Mia's apartment.Mia grabbed a shopping cart and pulled Henry toward the grocery section.The girl's first destination was the cereal aisle.As she picked out different kinds of cereal from the shelves, Mia glanced to her right and left from time to time, as if to make sure no one was watching."Are you okay?" Henry asked."Yes, I'm fine, of course!"She then walked over to the refrigerator, which contained several kinds of meat.She chose several kinds and took some pieces of beef and chicken out of the glass case and placed them in the cart.Once again, she went through the same routine of looking around to make sure the surroundings were safe.Since leaving the house, the girl had suddenly become quiet, and Henry, curious about her constant scanning, teased her."Don't tell me you don't have any money on you! Honestly, if someone sees what you're doing, they'll think you're about to commit theft."Henr
