Krisville Hospital suddenly held within its walls a gloomy ambiance.

Several faces could be seen carrying sad expressions while the leader of the search team chortled with excitement.

It was obvious to all that the Wilkins' had the leader of the search team deep in their pockets as he seemed overly interested in seeing the seizure of the hospital rather than the safety of the children that he was pretending to be fighting for.

Loretta's panicking features intrigued the leader of the search team and he turned his attention to her, “Oh.. sweetheart, are you sad about this fool's impending demise? Don't be, I'm more than capable of replacing him.”

Loretta ignored his remark, wondering how a thug could have been sent to supervise the search.

Several seconds soon turned into minutes but Ethan still appeared totally fine.

The man wiped his eyes a couple of times in disbelief.

How was he still standing?

Ethan smiled on noticing the shock on the man's face.

“Perhaps I should have another cand

    Meanwhile, Dominic Wilkins and the sturdy fellow were in Madam Comfort's living room, giving her the good news.“Grandmother, I have delivered on my promise. In a little while from now, Krisville Hospital will be back under our custody.”Madam Comfort gave a satisfactory nod as the tension that she initially felt dissipated.“And that loser, what did you do to him?” She enquired.Dominic chortled excitedly, “He will be lucky if he even makes it out of jail alive. His days of causing trouble are over.”Madam Comfort's excitement was equally visible after she heard Dominic's response.Farrell was just walking in when he heard what Dominic said.“You've dealt with the situation already?” He asked Dominic in shock.“Yes, cousin. It's all taken care of. That fool would wish he never crossed us,” Dominic responded, beaming with pride.Farrell was slightly relieved, though he had some doubt in his mind.“Are you certain of that cousin? Is that jackass really not going to be a problem anymore

    All the members of the Wilkins family that were present at Madam Comfort's mansion, turned their attention to the door, wondering who rang the doorbell.It was quite surprising because Madam Comfort had very recently issued key cards to every member of the Wilkins family to enable them to easily get into the house, so they knew whoever was behind the door was most likely a stranger.One of the servants quickly went to check who it was and after a couple of seconds, the servant returned with a small box, “Sorry Ma'am, a delivery boy just brought this for you,” the servant bowed respectfully before presenting it to Madam Comfort.Madam Comfort frowned slightly as she wondered who the box was from.The sturdy fellow who was carried away, glaring at one of the beautiful servants, suddenly forced his attention to Madam Comfort and saw her observing a box.“Forgive me, Madam Wilkins, I almost forgot about that. That's our latest product that just hit the market. And the sales have been very

    Another member of the Wilkins family asked Dominic in confusion, “What did you put in the candies? This happened immediately after she had one of them.”Dominic shook with fear as he glared at the sturdy fellow.“I thought I asked you to handle my grandmother’s gift personally.”The sturdy fellow gave Dominic a confused look, “Mr. Wilkins, I personally took care of everything, just as you requested.”“Then why is my grandmother this way, you moron!” Dominic suddenly yelled, his fear giving way to fury.“We need to get her to the hospital!” Another member of the Wilkins family yelled.Dominic instantly composed himself as he picked up his phone but a call came in at that instant and it was from the hospital.As Dominic picked up he heard a panic-stricken voice at the other end of the line, “Hello Mr. Wilkins, I'm afraid I have rather disturbing news.”Dominic yelled in fury, his phone crashing down from his hands.The other members of the Wilkins family became instantly disturbed.“Wha

    Dr. Kris ran several checks on the little boy over the years from his mother.There was a sad expression on Dr. Kris' face as he gave them a nod that signified that the boy was no more.The woman cried uncontrollably as severe other parents came to console her.At that instant, the hospital doors flew open and several people rushed in with an unconscious woman.Dr. Kris froze instantly as he recognized them.“What…are you guys doing here?” He asked, glaring at them.He suddenly recognized the woman they were carrying. She was none other than Madam Comfort.“We brought our Grandmother for you to treat. We heard you successfully treated those kids with similar illnesses. Be quick and attend to our Grandmother!” A member of the Wilkins family ordered Dr. Kris.“You must be mistaken to think you can just walk in here and order the doctors here around.” Ethan's voice rang out, startlingly them instantly.His gaze focused on the dead child as he spoke.Dominic gritted his teeth upon hearing

    Ethan ignored Dominic as he took in several slow breaths.Several curious gazes could be seen focusing on him as he inserted the silver needles into the boy.With each insertion that Ethan made, a green glow flashed, signifying that he had inserted all the silver needles into the deepest acupoints.Shocking expressions filled the faces of all who were present at the hospital, including the members of the Wilkins family.The mother of the boy who was still sobbing, also watched Ethan with curiosity.As Ethan inserted the last needle into the boy, the green glow suddenly flashed brightly all around the boy and his eyes instantly opened.There was a look of disbelief on the faces of everyone as they saw what Ethan had just done.“That's impossible! No one can do that.”“I thought the art of raising the dead was a myth!”“Who is this guy?”Several comments flew between several of them as they glared at Ethan and the little boy.The boy's mother, out of shock, hesitated before hugging her

    There was a mischievous glint in Ethan's eyes as he spoke.The members of the Wilkins family clenched their jaws as the pain and exhaustion from kneeling tortured them.Ethan smiled as he stared at them in satisfaction.Dr. Kris was initially stunned when Ethan commanded them to kneel and they obeyed without any hesitation.The Wilkins family he knew would never cower before anyone, yet here they were trembling before someone without a powerful background.It was unfathomable to him.“I'll only treat Madam Comfort after you all kneel and tender an apology to Dr. Kris.”Farrell gritted his teeth furiously but didn't utter a single word. He had been silent since his family brought in Madam Comfort.His body still ached from the last beating that General Cage gave to him and since General Cage was still present at the hospital, he decided to stay silent so there wouldn't be a repeat of what initially happened.Though Dominic was also furious, he knew better than to refuse to do what Etha

    Tim was in his office preparing a report for Ethan and Loretta when Sarah walked in.“Mrs Lopez, good day…” Tim greeted her in shock.“Oh Tim, relax. Why are you so surprised to see me?” Sarah asked with a mischievous smile.“I came to give my daughter a surprise visit, where is she?”Meanwhile, the Wilkins' gathered around Madam Comfort. They were relieved to see her fully conscious again.For several minutes she had drifted in and out of sleep, causing them to worry about her.“You are at home, Mother,” Madam Comfort's oldest son told her.The Wilkins family was a large family with several of them overseeing their business interests outside Stanberry.After news of Madame Comfort's health situation broke out, they all rushed down to see her.Madam Comfort had slept throughout the drive from the hospital to her home. After waking up, it took a few seconds for her eyes to get accustomed to the brightly lit room again.The sturdy fellow heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Madam Comfort

    The men from the health department that went to search Krisville Hospital returned to their office looking very unkempt.Their colleagues glared at them with obvious irritation as soon as they saw them.“What happened to you guys? I had to cover up for you guys while you were away, I hope you brought back some goodies for me.” One of the officers asked them with excitement. He believed that such a quiet task that took so long was sure to bring a huge compensation.The leader of the team jerked the officer by the collar, “Do we look like we had fun where we went to?”The officer swallowed hard, realizing that things had not gone as planned for them.“My apologies then. I misread things,” he responded with a forced smile as the leader of the team released him.He had more problems on his hands than a nosy colleague. Ethan had evidence that could put him and some of the others into a lot of trouble. His thoughts now were how to retrieve them.But how was he going to accomplish that? He t

    Gripping the club, Chuck suddenly swung it hard in Ethan’s direction, aiming for his head, but Ethan's sturdy grip easily caught the club in mid-air.Chuck struggled to retrieve the club from Ethan's powerful grip but all his efforts were in pain.“Is that all you've got?” Ethan suddenly asked after watching Chuck struggle to retrieve the club from his grip.Chuck’s frustration was immediately palpable as he tried to land a punch on Ethan’s face but Ethan stopped it with only one finger and swung the club at Chuck's face.“Bang!” In another second Chuck was on the ground with blood oozing freely from his mouth.All the other customers who had initially looked down on Ethan, suddenly gawked at him.“You've simply been a pawn, so I'll spare you and your men.

I was just about to put this poor fool in his place before you showed up!” Chuck responded, ignoring Mr. Orlando's outburst.Mr. Orlando gritted his teeth. It was almost impossible for him to deny his involvement any longer, “You had a very simple task! Take the money quietly and leave, yet you blew it, you and your incompetent crew!” Mr. Orlando ended his statement, with an irritated expression on his face.Loretta couldn't contain her shock! She and several other customers, including Gabriella, gawked at Ethan and Mr. Orlando.“Let me guess, the last robbery incident here was also planned but you took the fall for it while Orlando here pulled some strings to get you out!” Ethan responded glaring at both Orlando and Chuck.“I'm also guessing t
