2024-11-07 23:07:13Thea adores her grandfather, Thor so much that she had spent most of her time looking for a cure for his sickness and she was willing to spend every dime on him.
But at that moment, for the first time in her life, she wishes that her grandfather doesn’t wake up. Well, that’s till Alex leaves the house. That means she would still hold the authority of the Walton’s family.
He was acting like he wasn’t affected by her presence and it really hurt her pride. She was the goddess of war. He wasn’t aware that he was dealing with a tough person.
Instead of giving her a response, Alex rushed over to check the old man that was lying on the bed after he had noticed that his fingertips were white. He checked his pulse and muttered, “it is just as I thought, he has been poisoned by the two-headed snake.”
Thea’s forehead creased into a frown, ”My grandpa was poisoned? Does he really have poison in his system?”
“Yes, it is the most toxic poison that is currently in existence. If I had discovered this earlier, I would have been able to do something about it right away but it has been over six months since he has been poisoned, I am afraid curing him right now is far-fetched.”
“The medicine that can cure it is very scarce and difficult to acquire. It will take a lot of work to get it. Kudos to the doctors you have employed in the past, they must have exhausted all their abilities trying to keep Lord Walton already but couldn't do anything about the poison. They are the reason he is not dead yet.”
She scoffed, “I had thought that you were just an ordinary doctor from the medicine village, little did i know that you are not just a doctor but a lunatic in a doctor’s form. I almost fell for your acting.”
Thea barely had any knowledge about medicine but she had reached out to the most famous doctors to come treat her grandfather but Alex stood before her to ridicule them by saying they had exhausted their power as if he was better than them.
Alex got up from Lord Walton’s side and dazed Thea. “I am aware that you do not see me as a potential healer for your grandfather but trust me I did not tell a lie about what is wrong with him.”
Thea could not hold but be marveled at the words that he spewed shameless. It was unmatched to the fools that bluff to her while she is on the battle ground.
“At least, you are now aware that my grandfather will not be able to do anything about the marriage contract since he can’t speak and the authority of this house now belongs to me, so as i said earlier, rip off the contract and let’s go back to our various worlds like we never met.”
Her tone was firm and obvious that she had made up her mind. She hates his guts and she wanted him to see her place as the war god of Mericania.
“I will look for the medicine within a month and return to treat Lord Walton.”
“Why do you want to come back here? I will hire better doctors than you to fix my grandpa if I can, so do not come here saying you want to treat him. I will not let you touch him and say the nonsense you were spewing about the two- headed snake.”
“Why not? It seems to me that you loved your grandpa, do you not want him to regain his health back?”
“Because of your bad intentions, you are trying to impress me so I can marry you.”
“I see that you are delusional, Miss Thea.”
“You are the delusional one that thinks that your lies can get to me, a mere village doctor diagnosing that my grandfather had been poisoned when many renowned doctors did not find the cause. I can see right through you.”
“I am doing this to treat your grandfather because he had helped my family and my master in the past, not because I want to marry you. I have to leave right now. As you can see it is quite late. I need to get to my destination to have a good night's rest.” he smiled at her.
“If you dare return here in a month’s time, i will show you why I am called the war god of Mericania,”
Without giving her response, he got up, carried his little bag and left the Waltons residence.
Just then, thea’s phone rang and she picked her phone up at once, “Dr Norton, how may I help you?”
David Norton is the most famous Orthodox medical doctor in Mericania and he had ranked number one in the ranking of orthodox doctor for the past ten years and he was the doctor that has recently treated Lord Thor Walton.
“Ms Thea, I am calling to inform you about what you have discovered about your grandfather’s condition. I have reached out to retired medical doctors in my line of practice, I even went to the extent of reaching out to people I have cut ties with because Lord Walton's sickness was so peculiar and I finally got to the roots of it.”
Thea was filled with hope for her grandfather, she had been looking forward to when she would see him next and how up to him that she was now the War god of Mericania..
“Please, tell me what you found.”
“Lord Walton is not ill neither is he suffering from an unknown ailment. He is in a coma because he had been poisoned and it's not just any poison. He had been poisoned by the two headed snake. It is the most toxic poison in the world. It is really a miracle that he is alive right now.”
Her eyes glimmer with hope for her grandfather, “Please do anything in your power to heal him. I will pay you any amount that you ask for.” She said in a pleading tone.
David heaved a heavy sigh, “the poison has spent too long in Lord Walton’s body which has caused it to spread. I am afraid that there is not much assistance I would be able to offer to him. But I think..” he trailed off.
She was curious to know what he had to offer.
“what do you think of?” she asked.
"According to what I can remember, there is someone that can heal your grandfather, he is the divine doctor. His powers are said to have brought some back to life from the dead.”
Thea had heard tales and rumors about the divine doctor but she didn’t believe them to be true since he was nowhere to be found. Even the Healers card that people called the ticket to get to see him was nowhere to be bought or found.
“Doctor David, if you get in touch with this divine doctor, please let me know I will also start looking for him from my end! Thank you.” She said then she hung up.
Then she suddenly remembered that Alex had mentioned that her grandfather was poisoned by the two-headed snake.
She shrugged the thoughts off, “Scammers like him are usually lucky with their guess. It can’t be!”

Alex has traced a place he knew by memory in an area not so far from the Waltons Estate. Though the Waltons estate has changed because of the development, the areas around it still retained its old features so I could tell that I wasn’t in the wrong place.He was standing in front of his Uncle, Victor Miller's house. 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. It was evident that she had just taken a shower. She looked in her father’s direction and saw the stranger standing near him.“Who is this fucking Creep?” She screamed before racing to her room.“Miller, re

Alex understood why Donald was the richest man in the city. 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 been waiting by the door for him to show up. 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. Her eyes were puffy as it was obvious that she had been crying for days.“Is this the doctor you speak of?” her eyes flashed with anger and disgust. “Donald, did you seriously bring a rat to

“Will my daughter still survive this after getting the treatment from this?” Donald Bourne was not sure of agreeing to his wife's choice so he wanted to confirm.He was only going to let him touch his daughter because his wife had told him that he was the best doctor in their city. The person he wanted it to be was Alex.“I cannot say till we all see it but be rest assured that since I am here, your daughter cannot pass away,” Alex assured him, “But there is a condition, you will have to get me the White Snake Flower.”“I will get you anything you want as long as you save my daughter’s life. 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. I will make sure he doesn’t get it.”He brought out the cure he had prepared for Bella. He filled the syringe with some liquid. He wa

Alex glanced at him with a smirk on his face, “I’m not taking apprentices yet,”“Please when you decide to start accepting them, kindly contact me.” He bought out his name card and handed it to Alex. “I have been learning the supreme techniques since I was in medical school but I have not been able to master it.”It was no doubt that he wasn't able to learn such technical skills. 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. He has had many clients that are requesting for treatment but he was not able to attend to their strange illness because he didn’t know how to use the supreme technique.Everyone in the medical industry knew that the supreme techniques could revive anyone that was at the point of death.Seeing how Alex had performed it without making any

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.

I just want to rest a bit before heading out.” he said.“Sure, come with me, please.” the receptionist replied politely. He wanted to serve Alex to his satisfaction because of how rude he was to him earlier.That time he was aware that he was a VVIP, his job really depended on how he treated the guests.As they walked down to another room, they ran into a woman dressed in a long black and shiny dinner gown.

The line went silent as David Norton did not know how best he would explain to Thea about what had transpired between him and Alex.“Give me an answer. We both know that my grandfather doesn’t have much time. I need to find this man as fast as I can. No matter what it takes.” Thea said she could barely mask her desperation any more.“I met this young man at the Bourne’s mansion when I was about to treat their daughter. We had a little conflict so I wasn’t able to get his contact or even get his personal information.” He said in a small voice.Thea immediately understood what Dr Norton said. She understood that the top orthodox doctor in Mericania would not believe that there was someone better than him.“Thank you, Dr David. I will try to contact the Bournes about it.”Though the doctor was young, he was able to treat the Bourne’s young daughter that Norton wasn’t able to heal. It is possible that he will be able to heal her grandfather too. Now that her hopes were high, she was goi

Chapter 135 - Lawfully.
A slow silence settled over the ornate hallway, as Thea Walton’s words reverberated off the walls. Her piercing gaze moved from one brother to the next, waiting—expecting—a scramble. Maybe even a power grab.But what she got was something entirely different.Riss Smith, the eldest and the quietest of the trio, took a step forward. His face was unreadable, cold and unmoving, as though he were carved from marble. He looked Thea straight in the eye, not with awe or admiration, but something cooler… more calculating.“No,” he said flatly.Thea blinked. “Excuse me?”“I said no,” Riss repeated, his voice calm but final. “We won’t be competing for your affection or favor under your terms. We’ll do this among ourselves, the way brothers should.”King’s jaw tightened. Vonn shifted where he stood.Thea’s brows furrowed slightly. She hadn’t expected this especially not from the most stoic of the three.King stepped forward next, standing shoulder to shoulder with Riss. “I may be cocky, but I’m n
Chapter 134 - She is here
The atmosphere inside the Smith Mansion was tense with unsaid words and rising testosterone. The grandiose living room, adorned with gold accents and oil paintings of past generations, echoed with the subtle sound of polished shoes pacing on marble. King Smith strolled in with a noticeable swagger, the corner of his lips curled with a self-satisfied smirk.He threw his jacket carelessly onto the velvet couch and plopped down like he owned the entire world.“Where have you been?” Vonn asked, arms crossed, standing in front of the fireplace. His deep voice vibrated with restrained irritation.King didn’t answer right away. Instead, he reached for the crystal decanter on the glass table, poured himself a drink, and sipped it slowly. Theatrics. He wanted to be seen. He wanted them to notice.“I just came back from seeing her,” King finally said, deliberately emphasizing the pronoun as if Thea Walton had become some sort of divine entity to be worshipped.Vonn’s nostrils flared. “You went
Chapter 133 - A Smith
Thea Walton was not one to entertain second chances.But King Smith was not like other men. he was a smith, a man that was from a fmaily that beffitted her title compared to that of alex.When he showed up at Walton Medical Headquarters uninvited, bearing a silver case of rare healing herbs from the Eastern Isles, the guards paused, but Thea didn’t send him away. Not immediately.He had come dressed in charcoal gray, no flamboyant cologne, no flashy rings, no entourage. For once, his hair was combed back neatly, and he carried himself with a seriousness that almost didn’t fit.Almost.Standing before her office doors with a slight tilt of his head, he waited for acknowledgment. When it came, he stepped forward and spoke, not with arrogance, but something close to humility.“I behaved poorly last time,” he said, voice low. “I came to you as a man chasing a trophy, not a partner. For that, I apologize.”Thea stared at him without emotion, hands folded behind her back.“And what do you w
Chapter 132 - How to get Thea
The golden lamps in Riss Smith’s private study glowed with a quiet menace, casting stretched shadows across the leather-bound books and antique chess board that adorned the far wall. He sat behind a carved blackwood desk, a glass of golden whiskey in one hand, and a sealed envelope in the other.His father’s words still echoed in his mind like a mantra.“The one who marries Thea Walton… inherits it all.”Forty-seven hospitals. Pharmaceutical dynasties. Medical research empires. Titles. Legacy. Power.And all that stood between him and the throne was a woman who refused to kneel.Thea Walton.She wasn’t just beautiful. She was dangerous. She had honor braided into her spine and stubbornness carved into her bones. She was not the type to be wooed with roses and poetry. Her heart was forged in battlefields, not ballrooms.And Riss Smith… he was a tactician, not a poet.But this time, he couldn’t rely on brute wealth or cold strategy. No. Thea Walton would not fall like other women had.T
Chapter 131 - Tina's ex returns
Tina stood by the window, her delicate fingers wrapped around a porcelain teacup that had long gone cold. The early morning sun streamed through the sheer curtains, turning her soft beige robe into a glowing silhouette. Her thoughts were distant, but her lips wore a smile, the kind that still lingered from the night before.The memory of the orphanage was still fresh.Alex Cole’s voice, his steady hands when he helped carry the supply crates, the way the children laughed and clung to his sleeves. Most of all, his words.You did well.It wasn’t flattery.It wasn’t indulgence.It was honest. Direct. Alex Cole had looked her in the eyes, not as prey, not as a woman he had to avoid, but as someone worth recognizing.And then there were his last words before she dropped him off at the intersection.I wouldn’t mind seeing it again. The place. The kids. You.She had replayed that line so many times it echoed now more than her own heartbeat.She had won a small piece of ground in his heart. I
Chapter 130 - And all three of you want her
The dining hall of the Smith estate was a temple of wealth and power. Golden chandeliers dripped light from above like molten stars. The table beneath them was a stretch of mahogany longer than most banquet halls in the city, polished to the point where one's reflection could be seen in its surface. At the head of it all, Wade Smith sat like an emperor enthroned.Trim City's wealthiest medical tycoon. A man with power not only in hospitals and pharmaceuticals but also across underground networks and private research organizations that stretched beyond Mericania’s borders.His three sons sat along the table, each one radiating a different flavor of ambition.Riss Smith, the eldest, with his golden cufflinks and prideful eyes. He wore his tailored suit like it was armor. Vonn Smith, the second, was more refined, quieter, but with a sharpness in his gaze that betrayed a calculating nature. And then, there was King, the youngest, but the most brash. His smile could disarm any woman, but h
Chapter 129 - Duke Lin
The wind that blew through the Walton Estate carried the scent of trimmed rose bushes and the faint sting of polished steel. The sky had long faded from blue to amber, and the estate grounds were already bathed in a warm, orange glow as dusk crept in from the hills.Inside the sitting room of the Walton main residence, two women sat with very different expressions.Thea Walton, the War God of Mericania, sat in quiet poise. Her military-styled coat rested on the back of her seat, revealing the sleeveless black dress that clung to her form. Her eyes were narrowed slightly, but not from anger she was deep in thought. Still, beneath her stillness, an undeniable impatience lingered.Beside her, Hannah Stone paced the room in tight, agitated circles. Every third step, she would stop, whirl around, and begin her rant again with renewed vigor.“This is ridiculous,” Hannah snapped, flicking her long dark hair behind her shoulder. “How long have we been waiting? Twenty minutes? Thirty?”Thea d
Chapter 128 - You did well
The morning sun had just begun its slow climb, casting honey-colored rays upon the bustling roads of Trim City. Inside the luxury sedan, the air was silent, save for the soft hum of the engine and the occasional shift of tires on asphalt.Tina Snow sat beside Alex Cole with a demure expression, her hands folded on her lap, her posture elegant and composed. She wore a soft fragrance today, something faint and unfamiliar. The kind of scent that did not announce itself but lingered gently, just enough to be remembered.She had spoken only once since he entered the car.“I’m taking you somewhere,” she said, a mysterious smile playing on her lips. “But you’ll have to wait and see.”He did not press for details. He simply leaned back in his seat and allowed the silence to stretch between them like a fragile thread. His eyes occasionally drifted to her reflection in the window. She was dressed like no version of Tina Snow he had seen before. No bright lipstick. No high heels sharp enough to
Chapter 127 - Orphanage
Alex stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the collar of his clean white shirt.His hair was combed, his shoes clean, and his cologne subtle. He checked his watch. He still had twenty minutes before he was supposed to pick Tina up.The last time they saw each other, things had ended on a tense note. But she had reached out, apologized, and asked for another chance. He agreed. Today was supposed to be that second chance.His phone buzzed on the table.Alex picked it up.It was a message from an unfamiliar number."This is Hannah Stone. Lady Walton would like you to come for lunch today. She has something important to discuss with you. Regarding Lord Thor Walton."Another message followed immediately."This time, we are not taking no for an answer."Alex narrowed his eyes.The tone was direct, almost aggressive. Hannah’s reputation as Thea’s right hand was well-known. She didn’t sugarcoat anything, and she certainly didn’t waste time repeating herself.But it was the second part of th
