2024-11-06 20:12:59“I have dropped out of the marriage contract, so it is no longer valid so if you have come to beg me to take you as my husband just forget about it and leave. If you have some shame, you will find someone else to marry since you are so desperate to get married.”
“Thea, you must be mistaken,” He said subtly, “I did not come here for you. I have come to see Lord Walton.”
“If you have come to persuade my grandfather I am afraid that is another impossible task for you because this engagement will not go on.” the rigid expression she was wearing when he came back, only that she was looking at him with disdain now.
“The marriage contract had specified that neither of us had the right to call off this marriage, only Lord Walton has the power to do that and that's why I have come to see him. You don’t not have a say in this!”
She scoffed in disbelief, “What? I am the current War god in Mericania and you say I have no say about my own marriage? How dare a mere doctor say this to me? Did the isolation that you went through in the medicine village affect your head?”
“Ah, it must be the marriage contract, the silly agreement that our parents have made, that must have given you the illusion that we are on the same social level when you hold no candle to me. Now let me tell you clearly, we do not match each other. Look at me, the position I hold in the society, how could I marry a mere doctor?”
She spoke so highly to him but he wasn’t shaken. “I am only here to meet Lord Walton,” he insisted.
“I let you in after you told me who you were because of my grandpa and the respect I have for him but you should learn to know your place.” She said in a much calmer voice.
“Our social stance is miles apart, even your generations to come will struggle to catch up with mine. This marriage should not go through because you can't handle a woman like me.”
Thea saw that he was unfazed with what she said, her icy glare returned to her face again, “Don’t tell me you haven’t burned the marriage contract, have you?”
Alex shook his head, “I told you earlier, only Lord Walton can say that we are not going to go through with this marriage again.” He remained calm as usual, he knew that he could not use fire to fire with such a strong headed woman.
She brought out a pistol from her pocket and aimed it at his chest.“I was being lenient with you earlier because I thought you were sensible and civilized enough to understand the situation of things but you are making me use the hard route on you. You better throw your copy of the marriage contract in the fireplace or I will kill you for disobeying a War god. Trust me, one click and a bullet will pierce your heart.”
“It’s been a while since I used my gun last and my hands have been itching to use it again. Many people have fallen by my gun and I don't care if I had to add more people to it. It will be quicker to kill you than to let you burn that paper but I am giving you the opportunity to do the latter. So choose wisely.” She offered.
Alex showed no fear even though this was the first time someone was pointing a gun at him. It would only take him a few seconds to take the gun from her because of his swift reflexes. Besides, he could see that she was not holding the gun like she was going to pull the trigger, only a fool would not sense that.
“I don’t care if you decide to shoot me here, I have only made one request since I got here. Take me to Lord Walteon . He is the one that has the final say over this marriage.”
“Arrrgh!” She growled out in anger. She sent daggers at him with her eyes filled with rage and fury. She had no plans to shoot him, she just wanted to shake him up a bit but he was even unshaken, which made her more angry.
Her parents had informed about the marriage contract after she had won the war and was eligible to qualify for the potion of the War god.
She could not believe that her parents had picked her future husband for her when she had lived her whole life keeping her head up and living independently. They didn;t not even pick someone of a high status but they went to pick someone like Alex, an ordinary doctor that had no social importance.
Many suitors, wealthy men, dukes and even the crown prince had asked for hand in marriage but her parents had hooked her up with a doctor that didn’t even have his training under the most famous doctor in Mericania.
“Since you are here to see grandpa, I should take you to him. Come with me!” She turned on her heel and walked to the elevator which took them straight to the sixth floor.
Thea led him into a huge master bedroom where Alex saw Lord Thor Walton lying lifelessly on the bed, he had an oxygen mask attached to his nose.
“That is my granada who you seek , he fell into a coma six months ago and he hasn’t woken up since then. I have even reached out to the best doctor here in Mericania, Doctor Norton, he is yet to find the cause of his ailment nor the treatment.”
“I am the one that has his authority now with me, you can’t get anything from him now as you can see. This is the last chance I will give to settle this amicably, Burn up the contract and I will do any favor that you ask for.”

Just as he was about to ring the doorbell, his phone rang, and he picked up,“Hello?”“Hello, Divine doctor, I am David bourne. the one that received your number after showing you the healer’s card that your sister had given me. I am calling to ask if you can come and check up on my daughter right now. She is in a critical condition, she is unable to breathe properly.”"It is late now and it will be hard to find a taxi, send a car to the location I will send to you over a text.” he replied to him.“Okay sir.

He could not believe that Alex Cole, his friend's son, was standing in front of him. “I have been looking for you. I am glad God listened to my prayers and sent you my way.” he rubbed Alex’s shoulders before pulling him for a hug. He pulled him into the main lounge in his mansion. Victor Miller had spent a lot of money modernizing his home.“Molly, Rena!” He called his wife and his daughter, “We have an important guest.”As they got to the main lounge, Molly was standing there, watching the TV, just in her bathrobe.

His house was fully decorated with gold, the exteriors obviously cost millions of dollars but the inheritors cost two times more.“Doctor, you are here!” Donald’s face lit up as soon as he saw Alex.

He had told his wife to let the doctor she had brought go so that he would make their daughter cripple but she was crying begging that he stay till the divine doctor that he called arrived.Mr Bourne was also standing by the door.

If you want hundreds of them, I’m willing to give you.”Alex laughed knowing that Donald doesn’t know how rare the White snake flower is. It’s impossible to find one, not to speak of ten.Dr Norton scoffed in his mind, “He dare ask for that rare herb? Such a thief.

Many students found it difficult to handle needles and master the supreme techniques. His master had told him that the reason why he had been able to grasp the skill at once was because he was talented.Dr Noton was rooting for a positive response from Alex in the future.

Take a look at his clothes and the car? Their qualities do not match each other. He only rented the car to show off and pretend like he is rich so he can deceive people.”“He is not the owner of the car. I know him so well.

Thea sighed in relief. She had thought for a moment that Alex was some secret powerful healer or highly skilled medical practitioner..If that was how it turned out, she wasn't sure how she would have felt about it. Anyway, his secret was out.Being a martial arts master herself, she understood what kelvin had said and affected his wife. “It is no surprise that your wife had struggled with her illness for about two years, you guys have been taking the wrong path over the time that you have been seeking a cure.”“It is indeed something that a novice will not be able to treat. Only Martial artists or Masters would be able to handle it.”Kelvin nodded in agreement with her, “I didn't expect that Mr Cole would be a martial arts master at his age and yet he is not even recognised in Trim city, even if the whole town is Mericania.”Martial arts masters are quite easy to spot in Mericania as long as they showed their skills. They are also quick to get hours to their name because of their e

If Kelvin had not witnessed what Alex had done earlier he would have ordered him to give him the healer's card then he would hand it over to the War god.But now things are a bit different now. Alex had not completed the treatment, but he was able to diagnose the sickness so quickly.His son might not have a clear idea of who Alex meant by the martial arts master but he was aware that his family was receiving warnings from a martial art master in the past.They had done a lot of things to protect themselves from their attacks so he didn't expect that his wife would have gotten hit by them.He thought that they stopped seeing their threats because they were tired of sending attacks that were rendered useless.Now that he believed Cole was an authentic person who knew what he was doing , he stammered "Mr Cole.. what so you sug…”“Inform her that I took the card with me.

“How could you mess this up, you idiot? Even after I warned you.” Kelvin Gomez scolded his son as soon as Thea Walton left their residence. “I had entrusted this task to you and you still picked up the wrong person. What should I do about you?”He didn't yell at Alex but he was focused on his son who had managed to make such a terrific mistake of picking the wrong person when his mother was in need of good treatment urgently.Killian faced his father and kept his chin up, “I did not pick up the wrong person. I am so sure that I got the description of who you had given me. The Divine healer could not make himself here so he had to send Alex to come in his place so that he could treat mom.”Before Killain could continue to speak his defense, Alex walked to him, “Where is the healer's Card?”Killain’s eye met with Alex when he demanded for the card, for some reason, his eyes looked different for it radiated this domineering and commanding presence, though he had not sensed it before but

Thea looked at Alex with disbelief in her eyes, Killian Gomez had gone to pick the Divine doctor and it turned out to be her good-for-nothing betrothed.It was quite strange for the Gomezs to bring such a person as the Healer. If Alex was there it only means that thinks he's the Healer.That could not be, for Alex is a young guy and the history and rumors about the Divine healer had alway mentioned how they had been alive for so many years, for they had been around for decades.Many of them have grey hair and grey beards. But he didn’t match up with that description of the timeline.Gomez was always wearing a look of disbelief on his face. He was confused as the man before him was wearing clothes that were not befitting for a doctor. Most Doctors love to wear expensive clothes to show how much they earned from working.The divine Healer would be earnrng so much butthus man before him was just wearing low end clothes. Though they were new, he could tell that he could not be the divine

If he had done that he knew he could not possibly think about the consequences of his actions.“You cannot tell Molly about this, though.” Alex added.A fortune hunter like her would go berserk and start fawning over him if she found out about her.If she did that to him, he had the option of ignoring her and even helping her if she tried to call him, but the problem was with his Uncle.

Alex stood at the entrance of the bookshop like the person who was coming to pick him up had said. He had gotten there on time but it seemed like the person was running late but he was in a good mood so he was not annoyed that the person was running late. He was just waiting as he admired the clothes he was putting on plus the new pair of shoes he was also putting on. They were enough to lift his mood. A part of him still thinks that no one was going to show up because his Master, Dustin, might be playing a huge prank on him. Dustin had instructed him to wear some new clothes and shoes which seemed to catch everyone's attention. But he must wear a black cup from a counterfeit band named Gushi. Even if it was a prank, there was nothing he could do about it after all Dustin was the one pulling the strings.
