Although initially skeptical, Sir Runo fully trusted Richard after witnessing his accurate diagnosis.

Richard’s ability to identify the issue instantly confirmed his status as a true miracle doctor in his eyes.

Sir Runo glanced at Richard who was now focused on picking out the specific acupuncture needles he’d need for the treatment.

“Move out of the way,” Sir Runo ordered the butler and walked out, deciding to handle Delilah personally.

When he got outside, Delilah marched towards him with a serious expression. “I need to see the card,” she said.

“Goddess,” Sir Runo said, “I’m sorry. The card… it’s in the young man’s possession now.”

“What?!” Her eyes narrowed. “You handed it over to him?”

“I had no choice,” he replied, his voice firm. “I had to follow the requirements of the card…”

“How could you trust that man?? A nobody?” she interrupted him and scoffed, crossing her arms. “You have to take the card back.”

“I’m sorry, the card can not be retrieved once returned.”

“What!” Delila

    “Goddess,” Sir Runo excitedly called, snapping Delilah out of her thoughts. His eyes sparkled with awe and immeasurable joy as he jumped off the bed. “You wouldn’t believe it if I told you,” he inhaled deeply to calm his excitement. He clasped his hands together briefly before letting out an excited laughter.“My wife’s condition wasn’t actually an illness… it wasn’t! Her meridians had been sealed by a martial arts master…” his words spilled out in quick succession as though he couldn’t contain his excitement. “She couldn't move! She couldn’t talk! Or even blink! But now she can move!..” he exclaimed with tears in his eyes. “The young man managed to undo the blockage in such a short period of time! We’ve been trying to find a solution for years now, but he did it so easily, Goddess. He is indeed a miracle doctor!…”He was so immensely grateful that even a blind man could sense his overwhelming joy.The old man didn’t stop ranting while Delilah had completely zoned out again. Her

    Richard’s eyes widened at Delilah’s utterances. What does she take him for? ‘Consider allowing me to pursue her??’Richard didn’t expect Delilah to be so narcissistic, and hung up the phone on her. “What?!” Delilah exclaimed, her eyes widening when she realized Richard had hung up on her. She glanced at her screen, pressed the phone to her ear, and screamed, “Hey!” repeatedly, her anger growing sharper with each shout. “The audacity?!” she growled. Just then, her driver touched the communication device in his ear, listening intently. A moment later, he nodded sharply and said, “Understood,” his tone brisk and focused.“Your Grace, a report has just come in that the Grovers have been tracked down.”The Grovers were criminals they had been pursuing for a long time now. A slow, predatory smile instantly spread across her face. “Good,” she murmured, her voice low but laced with menace.“Do I have to tell you to turn the car around and go after them before you do?” she snapped at th

    The crowd gasped, heads turning to see who this bold bidder was. Seeing Cane’s high bid, many of them became intimidated and withdrew.The auctioneer raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed. “Two million dollars! That’s an extraordinary one!…”“Two million dollars is a lot!” one of the bidders whispered to his partner, his eyes widening.“Right! I bet no one can go above that. I wouldn’t even dare,” he replied. Suddenly, the CEO of Ghevar pharmaceutical company stood up and shouted, “Two point five million dollars!”Everyone gasped louder, their eyes finding the elderly man. “Two point five million!” The auctioneer’s eyes widened, and his lips stretched into a wider smile. “Wow. Do I hear a Three million? Three million anywhere?”Cane glanced at the CEO, chuckling and shaking his head, pride evident in his expression. He rose with pride and raised his paddle. “Three point five million.”“This man must be loaded!” a young lady said to her friend, staring at Cane lustfully.“Yes he is!

    Richard’s eyes widened in disbelief.He had personally diagnosed Sir Morrigan with Viperis, which was a poison highly difficult to treat–one that even he couldn’t cure without the rare herbs, so how could he possibly be awake?“Is he really awake?” Richard asked again, his brows furrowing in disbelief. “Yes! You can come and see for yourself.”Richard drew in a slow breath, his frown softening. The news seemed almost impossible, yet he hesitated to completely dismiss it.After all, miracles were not out of question in such a vast world, he thought. “I’ll be there shortly,” he said, his voice steady but laced with intrigue.He turned to the driver, urgency in his voice. “Change of plans. Please head to Ironvale. And step on it please,” he simply instructed.After a while, they were almost at Delilah’s villa. Richard couldn’t be more relieved that there was now hope for Sir Morrigan to officially dissolve the engagement. But suddenly, the car behind them surged ahead and swerved sha

    The groans and pained demeanor of the criminals vanished in an instant, their expressions shifting. Their eyes narrowed as they glared at Delilah, who was now casually approaching Richard.Rage burned intensely in their eyes. What they felt went beyond mere anger. Right now, they’d rather die trying to kill the renowned war goddess than face prison.Richard’s sharp eyes caught the dangerous glint in their eyes. His face hardened and he immediately became alert, sensing that something was off. But in contrast, Delilah seemed unconcerned about the criminals she left behind as she walked toward Richard with a smug expression. Suddenly, the men quietly moved closer and helped each other up. They locked their arms together tightly before forming a diamond shape with their index fingers and thumbs as they chanted in low, guttural voices in an attempt to combine their powers. A faint glow burst out of each of them and merged into a swirling orb of energy aimed directly at Delilah. And

    Delilah was barely conscious, her face contorted in agony. She was in excruciating pain, and her heartbeat slowed down, almost coming to a stop.Richard’s hands moved instinctively, checking her pulse, heartbeat and breathing first. He realized her pulse was weak and fading, and every other thing wasn’t looking good. Without hesitation, he grabbed an emergency antidote from his kit, injecting it into her arm. Despite the hostility Delilah had always shown toward him, he couldn’t just stand by and let her die. “Come on,” he muttered, feeling her pulse and hoping for a positive change. He tilted her head back to ensure her airways stayed open, and elevated her legs slightly to improve blood flow to her vital organs and keep her warm. After more than ten minutes of emergency treatment, Richard finally sighed in relief, his tense shoulders dropping as he wiped the sweat from his brow. Any further delay, and Delilah’s life would have been beyond saving. After confirming that her v

    Samuel managed to stabilize Delilah’s vital signs, spending half an hour gradually bringing her back to consciousness. He checked her pulse again and realized it was no longer weak and now stable. “She should wake up any moment now,” he said with a nod of relief.Suddenly, Delilah sneezed lightly, barely above a whisper. “Oh my God!” Helen, Delilah’s assistant exclaimed as she ran to her side. “My Goddess you’re awake!”Delilah squinted as she slowly took in her bright surroundings, while Helen helped her sit up. When she saw Helen and Samuel, she was surprised, her brows furrowed in confusion. She glanced at Helen and asked with a soft, rasped voice, “What happened?” “Mr Samuel here found you lying on the sofa looking very pale. Your pulse was very weak and.. and your heartbeat was slow. I thought you were going to die,” she replied, sadness evident in her voice. “But he saved you!”Delilah looked away, her brows furrowing as she recalled the dangerous event from earlier. “It

    Janae seemed a bit confused with Richard’s request. It was the first time she had been asked to prove her identity, but she complied regardless. “Uhm.. this is Janae Vester,” she said after hesitating for a moment. Lydia and her mother exchanged another sharp glance, but their hostility remained unchanged. If anything, it seemed to intensify. Lydia’s lips twisted into a sneer. “Is that so?” she scoffed, her voice dripping with mockery. “You really think you can fool us, Richard? Hired an actress to play along with your lies, right?” She laughed dismissively. “Nice try, but we are not buying it.” “As for you,” Lady Wilson began, her eyes blazing with anger. “Whoever you may be, do you not have any dignity?” she asked Janae. “This is Janae Vester,” she mockingly repeated Janae’s exact words. “How dare you conspire with him to deceive us? You must think we are stupid. In fact, you and this useless thing that hired you are the stupid ones.” Her voice trembled with fury, a

    Richard carefully reached for a small leather pouch in his kit and opened it. In it was an array of neatly arranged tools and vials. He took a slender pair of forceps and used them to pick up a small, round pill from a compartment lined with velvet.He needed to administer the Curexol pill to the boy. But the boy was unconscious, how would he swallow?Richard assessed the situation in his mind for a moment. Just then, he crushed the pill into a fine powder, mixing it with a small amount of sterile water from a vial in his kit.With a syringe, he drew the liquid mixture before gently removing the tubing from the boy’s nostril. “He can’t breathe without it. What are you doing?!” Christopher’s wife shouted but her husband held her back.Richard carefully tilted the boy’s head slightly to the side to prevent choking as the child’s chest heaved faintly, his body instinctively struggling to draw air.“Breathe,” he murmured in the ears of the boy. And with delicate precision, he inserted t

    Moments later, Richard arrived at Christopher’s house in the latter’s luxurious ride. “We’re here,” Christopher informed as the driver turned into the driveway, leading them to the front of the house. He had brought Richard to see his son, intending for Richard to gain a deeper understanding of the boy’s condition. Seconds later, the car came to a halt and both men alighted. “Please come with me,” Christopher led Richard into the room where his son lay. They walked into a large room, the beeps of medical monitors echoing softly in the room. The young boy was still on the bed, his frail body barely lifting with each shallow breath. There was also a nasal cannula fixed in his nose for delivering oxygen directly to him. His skin was very pale and his sunken cheeks made him look even fragile, with dark circles underneath his closed eyes. Next to the boy was a woman seated. She was lost in thoughts when they walked in that she didn’t even realize. “Darling,” Christopher tapped he

    “I will reveal the doctor’s identity to you…” Daniel suddenly stepped forward and said, his words cutting through the tension in the air. Everyone’s eyes snapped at him, their expressions a mix of surprise and disbelief. Is he okay in the head? They thought. How could he utter such a statement right after grandpa’s declaration?Sir Vester turned to face him, his eyes burning with a seething anger that was very evident. Janae’s brow furrowed with shock and concern, while Collin’s lips parted as if to say something, but no words came out. Delilah, however, was the first to react. Her eyes widened for a brief moment before a sly smile tugged at the corner of her lips. “Really?” she asked.“…if you promise to leave my family alone,” Daniel added, his voice firm but strained, as though he was weighing the consequences of his words. He could not shake the feeling of everyone’s eyes on him either. Delilah’s smile widened into a grin. She arched one eyebrow, and purred, “well, well… Oka

    Back in the estate courtyard, Delilah expressed her gratitude to Janae and her family. Her lips curled into a gracious smile as her gaze swept over the private area that had been prepared for her and her entourage. The lavishness of the area spoke volume of the effort Janae’s family had put in, especially for an impromptu visit. The large table alone was set with an abundance of delicacies; exquisite wines, rare fruits, and curated dishes befitting nothing less than the status of a war goddess. “Truly,” she said, her voice smooth and warm, “your hospitality is remarkable. It’s no small thing to welcome a guest… particularly one who arrives unannounced.”Her smile deepened, a clear air of authority mingling with her gratitude. “To have gone to such lengths on my behalf is beyond what I could have expected. You’ve really outdone yourselves.”Though her words seemed sincere, they carried an undertone that made it clear she accepted their efforts as only natural for someone of her sta

    Just as Richard brushed past Delilah, and as the latter prepared to keep moving, Mr Christopher coming from the opposite direction quickly called out to Richard. “Mr Richard, I’ve made my decision concerning the herb,” he said, his tone respectful.‘Herb?’Richard quickly stopped to listen to what he had to say. He had been anticipating his response all evening anyway. But Christopher didn’t say any other word, his eyes darting around as he suddenly realized his voice was a bit loud, drawing the attention of everyone, including Delilah. He quickly looked around the room, and seeing the curious stares fixed on him, his cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and nervousness.He met Delilah’s gaze and quickly looked away, holding back the lump that formed in his throat. ‘Why was he loud?’ Janae thought to herself, her stomach tightening as Christopher’s voice echoed through the room, a little too loud for her liking. She bit her lower lip, anxiety creeping up her spine. In lite

    Suddenly, Delilah’s steps faltered, and then she stopped entirely, her piercing gaze locking onto a young man approaching her path. The quiet ripple of her stopping send waves of unease through her entourage who immediately halted as well. “Who’s that? Does he have a death wish?” someone whispered, their voice tinged with disbelief, as everyone's gaze fell on Richard.Another voice chimed in, hushed but urgent. “Is he not afraid? Or he doesn't know who she is?” “Who doesn’t know who she is?”He’s got guts!Richard, on the other hand, strode casually, his eyes fixed on his phone, oblivious to the fact that he was on Delilah’s path.Delilah tilted her head, her sharp eyes narrowing in scrutiny at the approaching figure, wondering who had so much courage to disregard her presence–Her presence no one had ever dared to disregard. Just then, Richard lifted his head just to meet Delilah’s furious gaze. The moment she realized it was Richard, her eyes widened in surprise. Her brows quic

    Delilah stepped out of her red Mercedes Benz, her heels clicking against the polished stone as Samuel followed closely behind her. Behind them was her entourage including a procession of guards dressed in coordinated black suits marching in disciplined silence. As they moved, their footsteps echoed faintly in the open space, announcing their presence. Delilah’s black evening dress flowed gracefully around her as she strode forward majestically, her sharp gaze scanning the surrounding courtyard.“Look! She’s here!” Daniel whispered in awe, his voice barely audible over the collective gasp that rippled through the few guests nearby. The entire family moved quickly to greet Delilah with great respect. Janae stepped forward first and lowered her gaze, bowing slightly. “Welcome Goddess Delilah,” she said warmly, “it’s an honor to have you here. Thank you for gracing us with your presence tonight.”“Thank you, Janae,” she said, offering a small and approving nod. “Congratulations on su

    Meanwhile, Delilah was still seated in her car, engaged in a conversation with Samuel Orchid. “Do you think he’ll be in attendance?” she said to him, her keen gaze fixed ahead. “Who?”“The healer who treated Sir Vester. Why do you think I’m here? He’s the sole reason why I’m attending this event. I have to find him,” she turned to Samuel. Desperation was evident in her eyes as she spoke. Finding someone had never been a difficult task for her, and this wouldn’t be either. “If I can’t get my hand on the miracle doctor himself, I will definitely find this particular healer,” she added with finality.Samuel let out a deep sigh, his eyes narrowing in doubt. “I still find it hard to believe that someone could cure an illness the mighty Doctor Ben failed to treat,” he said, shaking his head.“Right, it’s unbelievable,” Delilah said. “But Doctor Ben himself witnessed everything in person. Even he was in awe… this healer is exceptional.”“What if he’s the miracle doctor?” Samuel suggeste

    Richard stopped Christopher gently, quickly blocking his path. He had this pressing feeling that Christopher was hiding the truth. And he knew his instincts always turned out to be true. ‘Is he lying because he might also need the herb for a medical condition?’ Richard thought to himself, his brows lifting. “Mr Christopher,” Richard began but got interrupted by Janae. “Are you sure you don’t have the herb?” she asked, stepping closer. “I was almost completely sure you had it.”“Or didn’t you?” She added, evidently confused. Christopher sighed, almost getting upset. “Ms Janae, if I say I don’t have it, then I don’t have it,” he said, trying to sound as polite as possible. “Why would I lie? “Maybe because you might need it for a medical condition,” Richard said, his words quick as he gazed at him intently. Richard’s speculation shook Christopher because he knew it was true. Now even if he tried, he couldn’t exactly mask his pretense.“Mr…” he inhaled deeply and continued. “Mr Ric
