Upon hearing what Serenity just said.

Damien stared at his phone, his brow furrowed in disbelief. He couldn't believe the level of narcissism Serenity had just displayed. It was as if she expected the world to revolve around her, and he found himself growing more and more irritated with each passing second.

“Unbelievable,”

Damien muttered, shaking his head.

“How can someone be so full of themselves?”

With a sigh of exasperation, Damien pressed the end call button, cutting off Serenity mid-sentence.

Meanwhile, Serenity was left staring at her phone in shock, her eyes wide with disbelief.

“Did he just... hang up on me?”

she whispered, her voice trembling with anger

immediately She clenched her fists, her body shaking with rage.

“How dare he?”

she seethed, her eyes blazing with fury.

“I am the War Goddess! No one hangs up on me!”

As her eyes adjusted to the light, she realized she was lying on the sofa in the villa, with Elvis and her assistant by her side.“What's going on?”Serenity asked, her voice hoarse and barely above a whisper.Elvis leaned in closer, with a relieved smile on his face.“You're awake,”he said softly. “How are you feeling?”Serenity furrowed her brow, trying to remember what had happened. “I'm not sure,”she admitted.“What happened to me?”At that moment her assistant stepped forward, her expression a mix of concern and relief.“We found you unconscious outside, and we brought you inside. Not long after Doctor Elvis came,”she explained.“He spent the last half an hour stabilizing your vital signs and bringing you back.”Upon hearing what her assistant just said, Serenity eyes widened as the memories came rushing back.

Isn’t that stupid?”Her mother crossed her arms tightly, her face twisting with anger. “You have some nerve,” she spat, directing her fury at Sophia through the phone. “How dare you conspire with him in this charade? Do you think we’re fools?”However Sophia's calm voice broke through the storm of accusations. “I don’t know what this is about, but I assure you—”“Don’t bother,” Jessica interrupted, her tone icy. “No one here is falling for this pathetic little stunt. Honestly, Damien, this is low, even for you.”However Damien opened his mouth to respond, but Jessica's mother 's sharp voice cut him off. “Enough! Do you think lies will get you anywhere?

He knew that Damien valued his privacy and wouldn’t appreciate his identity being revealed casually. “It’s better you don’t ask,” Ryan muttered, his tone final.Just as his companion began to reply, a familiar voice broke through the market’s noise. “Ryan!”Jessica appeared, weaving her way toward them with her usual confidence, a bright smile lighting her face. “What a coincidence seeing you here!” she exclaimed, her tone warm.At that moment Ryan's expression immediately cooled, his posture stiffening. “Jessica” he said, his response devoid of enthusiasm.His smile faltered slightly, but he pressed on. “I didn’t expect you at the antique market. Are you looking for something specific?” He hadn’t wanted to come to the market in the first place, knowing full well the tension between Jessica and Damien.

Do you even know what you’re doing?” She leaned slightly toward the stall owner, speaking loudly enough for the gathering onlookers to hear. “Well if you don't know, let me tell you Ryan came here with me. He’ll be here any second, and trust me, he won’t let someone like you try to act smart.”Her words were meant to cut, to humiliate. She raised her phone, tapping out a quick message to Ryan, clearly summoning him to the scene.

But think about the opportunities you’re passing up.”Hearing what Dr.Elvis just said.Sophia’s father shifted uncomfortably, his hands clasped tightly in front of him. “Opportunities?” he asked cautiously, his voice betraying his unease.Immediately Elvis nodded. “If you reveal the identity of this mysterious healer, you wouldn’t just be helping Serenity achieve her goals—you’d also be securing a valuable ally for yourselves.

    Seeing what was happening Serenity watched the scene unfold from a distance, her sharp gaze fixed on Damien. She crossed her arms, her posture exuding quiet confidence, but internally, her thoughts were anything but neutral.“Here we go again,”she mused, her lips pressing into a faint smirk.“Always in the middle of something, always scheming.”She had seen enough of Damien to form her own conclusions. To her, he was nothing more than a cunning opportunist, someone who knew how to manipulate people, and situations to his advantage. The way he had navigated the Ryan's family and collected the exclusive card in the process only fueled her belief that he thrived on clever deceptions.And now, with Mr. Leo standing before him, Serenity couldn't help but scoff inwardly. Without being told she could tell he was up to something again, and from the look of things Mr. Leo is falling into his tricks.At that moment She observed Mr. Leo’s cautious demeanor, the way he seemed to tread lightly a

Heads turned, eyes filled with awe and respect, but no one dared to meet her gaze directly.Except Damien.He spotted her ahead, her figure unmistakable, flanked by two towering bodyguards. While others instinctively moved aside, bowing their heads or stepping back, Damien didn’t falter. He kept his stride steady, his expression calm, as though he were simply walking toward his next destination.Upon seeing Damien walking forward her direction Serenity sharp eyes caught sight of him, her brows lifting ever so slightly at his indifference.She knew only few men could maintain such composure in her presence, and she wasn’t accustomed to being treated so casually by Damien, after everything he has done she couldn't believe he still has the guts to show his face again.At that moment her lead bodyguard, a tow

    Upon hearing what Serenity just said.Elvis immediately raised an eyebrow. “Alternative methods?”Without wasting any more time she tilted her head slightly, her expression unreadable. “Their phones, their movements—everything can be monitored. If they’ve had contact with him, it will leave a trace and I'm going to get it.”At that moment Elvis frowned, the hint of unease flickering in his eyes. “You’d go that far?”Serenity’s gaze remained fixed on him, unwavering. “This isn’t just about finding a healer,” she said firmly. “It’s about understanding who he is, what he’s capable of, and why he’s remained hidden. If I have to cross a few lines to get those answers or get him to treat me grandfather, then so be it.”At that moment the car grew quiet again, the weight of her words settling over them. Elvis knew better than to argue. Serenity’s determination was unyielding, and once she set her sights on something, there was little anyone could do to stop her.And without being told he kn

    The hum of the car’s engine was a low, steady rhythm as Serenity and Elvis sat across from one another in the back of the luxurious vehicle. The tinted windows shielded them from the curious stares of passersby as the chauffeur navigated the city streets.Serenity’s sharp eyes remained fixed ahead, her posture regal yet commanding. “The purpose of this visit is clear,” she began, her voice steady and purposeful. “I need to find the person who treated Sophia’s grandfather, even though I have spoken with Sophia about it, and she didn't give me the response I wanted, it would be better to visit the family, knowing they would see reason and give the contact.”Elvis, seated across from her, raised a skeptical eyebrow. At that moment he adjusted his tailored suit, his expression doubtful. “You really believe this person exists?” he asked, his tone polite but edged with incredulity. “We’re talking about an illness even Kyle couldn't handle. How could someone come out of nowhere and suc

    At that moment Damien leaned back slightly, his gaze steady as Mr. Leo’s polished words lingered in the air. Despite the businessman’s smooth denial, Damien’s instincts flared. He knows something, Damien thought, his mind piecing together the subtle tension in Mr.Leo’s tone and posture.“Mr.Leo,” Damien began, his voice calm but deliberate, “if I’m wrong about your access to the herb, then I apologize. But if there’s another reason—perhaps something personal—maybe we can work together instead.”Upon hearing what Damien just said.Mr.Leo’s brows furrowed slightly, his usually composed demeanor slipping for a fraction of a second. “What are you implying?” he asked, his voice still measured but carrying a hint of wariness.However Damien kept his tone neutral. “I’m suggesting that if you need the herb for a reason—like a medical condition—I may be able to help. My focus isn’t just on acquiring the herb but ensuring it’s used to its fullest potential.”At that moment Mr.Leo’s lips presse
