A group of men surrounded Quinin and a glim expression flashed through his face.

"What's the meaning of this?" Doctor Col face tightened.

"Don't take it the wrong way. I just want to have a little chat with the young man.." Xerxes stepped forward revealing her vibrant and suffocating aura even though she did nothing.

The other men beamed with an excessive amount of jealousy. A lowly look the man has been able to catch the attention of the almighty heiress.

"Ok..."

"I'm sure you already know who I am. I was informed that prior, Doctor Col noted that you would be able to help with my brother's case."

"So I wanted to know. Are you a well-trained doctor by any means?"

"I only know a little about medicine and nothing more. I'm sorry to disappoint you." Ended Quinin with a blank face.

"Oh... I must have gotten the wrong idea. Thanks for entertaining my curiosity." The bitter pill of disappointment rose through the throat of the heiress and she turned around to leave.

Doctor Col said nothing.

But before she left, the Director, followed by Ben and the other doctors rushed panicking into the halls.

"Is there a problem Doctor?" Xerxes inquired.

"This case Lady Xerxes. I'm sorry but we can do nothing about it. It's Haitus. The disease from three years ago.

We tried all we could do to stabilize the vitals of the patient but it was of no use. We can only assure you of a few hours with him before he eventually ends his course on earth."

Xerxes froze first with shock and then with fury.

"Didn't you tell me that you could help after carrying out the test?" Her face burned with rage that sent the Director falling back in his steps.

"Why didn't you inform me earlier that it was Hiatus!" She stood out more angry than emotional.

"We.. thought we could do something about it." Ben shook his head, his gaze falling on Col.

"Didn't you say that you would be able to do something about it earlier? Or you were just bluffing?

You gave us all the false hope. Now see where it has landed us all." Ben needed someone for the blame to be pushed on. It would be better if the Doctor was even stripped of his license. Ben has always thought that the person preventing him from rising through the ranks was Doctor Col.

"Everyone was there when he said those words. Right?" He turned to the other Doctors.

They could only nod their head in agreement. Frightened at what the outcome would be if they did otherwise.

Having issues with Doctor Ben was more like making life a living hell for yourself at the hospital.

"I never said I could." Doctor Col frowned at how manipulating the young man could be.

"I only recommended someone to which you declined."

"Oh. Your farmer friend?" Ben was choking with his laughter. The hands of the Doctor squeezed tightly, unable to do anything.

"Quinin?" Xerxes spilled with desperation itched in her throat.

"Then let him start working on him right away!" Shocks ran through the crowd like a wave.

Xerxes was desperate. The life of someone who dared to her was on the line. She had briefly forgotten what she had been told a few moments ago.

Besides, there was nothing to lose and a lot to gain if the one perfect chance worked out in their Favour.

Ben chuckled, thinking that he had heard wrong.

"I think you're making a terrible mistake. Doctor Col was only pulling a prank on us. Tell him Col how stupid you were."

"I wasn't joking when I said what I said." Col rebuke sternly and turned to Quinin, his expression softened.

"I'm very sorry for everything Doctor Quinin. But if you could help for your uncle's sake." His eyes formed a whirlwind of emotions as he spoke.

"Col what's wrong with you? Lady Xerxes. You aren't going to let someone who has barely been in the four walls of a medical school come close to someone close to you, right?

In ten years from now, I don't think he would even be able to get himself a license." The director spoke out of desperation while gritting his teeth.

"What's the percentage of him surviving?" Xerxes inquired.

"None."

"But wouldn't it be better to give the young man a dignified death?"

Xerxes slapped the direction right in the face, shattering the glasses.

"Any further words and you will be the one ending up without a license."

"I'm very sorry about that Doctor Quinin. If there's anything that you can do to save him."

Quinn nodded his head and proceeded into the operation room. The doctor stood back and watched while Doctor Col served as the assistant.

Quinin taking two shots of needles pulled off fluid right from the spine, replacing them with a dose of water.

The eyes of the Doctors widened. The central nervous system is the most complicated in the body

Even if the young man had a chance of survival before, now he wouldn't.

"Are you out of your mind?" The Director barked. "Do you want to damage him?"

"He was poisoned, dude. And thanks for your delay. It has affected his life force. This's the only way to save him."

"Huh? Poisoned. That's Haitus. You don't even know the proper diagnosis. Then how do you even intend to help you man?" Ben was going to use the slightest opportunity to make a shade out of Doctor Col and anyone who was related to him.

Everyone muttered curses at Doctor Quinin. Even Xerxes had her heart at the bottom of her stomach.

However, eventually, the breath of the man on the bed steadied after the last procedure and his vitals machine started beeping normally.

After a few moments, he was totally fine. Like nothing had happened to him in the first instance.

A hurricane of shocks pummeled forcefully through the spine of everyone that stood in the halls.

    Ben quivered from the weight of the shocks that came crashing on him. "What he needs now is a lot of rest." Quinin pulled off his gloves and turned over to Doctor Col. "I'm running late." Doctor Col nodded. Quinn had already done more than enough. Doctor Nam was still dumbstruck. The disease that had taken the life of three of the most powerful men in the city, three years ago was cured in just a blink of an eye. "Was that the lifeblood technique?" From the books of medicine history, it was stated that the greatest Doctors in the ancient past had developed this after the black death. It saved the rest part of the world. This technique could control the life force of the individual in any way that they wanted. It could work miracles. Healing incurable diseases. And just in the same way, it could only be a deadly instrument. Director Nam's face ran over with beads of sweat. If he could get Quinin to become a doctor in the hospital, then the name of Eastside hospital was defini

    "Oh!" Xerxes remembered that she had read something like that. But Emily Famous was already hinting at having a relationship with someone else. Plus, over the years, nobody had sighted the two loving couples together. This ship was going to wreck and she would just be waiting patiently to take the ruins for herself and build a cruise ship. "I wouldn't mind a little compensation?" The young lady remained determined. Just then, a bang was heard just ahead of them. The cars came to a halt "What's wrong?" Xerxes inquired. "I will check it out. Just give me a few seconds." The assistant replied. He got out of the car while the rest watched closely. George was encased closely by a convoy of cars. A group of fully armed men stepped forward. Broad chested and eyes filled with murderous intent. Quinin recognized one of them in an instant. It was the same man that had looked at him with a death stare earlier that day. He had come back for him. Just as he noted he was going to do. Qu

    They attacked from every side, not leaving any breathing space. The leader of the gang beamed brightly with smiles. However, Quinin remained unfazed. With steps mixed into the air and we're barely noticeable to the human air, his hands tore through their jaws, knocking them out cold. Xerxes' skin tightened with shock as Quinin dusted off himself. His poker expression returned and he got into the car where George had been taken to. Taking a pill out of his pockets, it slipped into the mouth of George and dissolved almost immediately. His wounds healed slowly and the swells all reduced. He handed over a few more to the one taking care of him. "One tonight and another tomorrow morning and he would be as good as new." Xerxes remained calm. But her inside was shaken with astonishment. How could someone be betrothed to such a person and not want them? Instead going for someone who wasn't even a tenth his worth. "Well. It's an opportunity to get what isn't valued for myself." She smi

    Mr. Famous's face gleaned. "Yes! Should there be a problem?" Emily blinked with a sense of disgust twisting it's way into her stomach. The rest of the family went into the Villa while Quinn remained in the waiting room. "Grandpa, tell me this is a prank. It's someone else right? I mean I can even accept a farmer if he is well to do. Not a pathetic looking one." Her voice tightened. "Dead people don't tell jokes and I am already closer to that." Mr. Famous said gravely. Emily squeezed her hands tightly. She never wanted to get married to someone that she didn't even know in the first instance, talk less about someone who looked like they had just been picked off from the gutters. "He is poor, stinks, and has no future ahead of him! I can't get married to him. I believe if we give him a good amount of money, he would break the agreement without blinking." With a firm stance, Mr. Famous shook his head. "I have already made my decision, Emily, you are getting married to him." A g

    The guards of the Han family fell into the range of the most deadly group in Eastside. And Han had a potential connection with the outside world. Emily stuttered violently. "Yes. That's more like it." Vince staggered off from the floor, supported by two guards. "For that taunt that tried to touch me. I'm going to spare him, to the brink of death if you come with me, and he apologies. If you don't follow these instructions strictly, then I would have no choice but to kill him!" Emily, still flustered, could only attempt to bow her head to apologize. It wasn't for Quinin but her grandfather. If he could react in such a manner just to get her to marry him, she could not even dare to think about what he would do if anything happens to Quinin. However, Quinin stopped her. She flashed a frown at him. "What do you think you're doing!" She growled. "Your dumb ass is the reason that I got into all of this in the first place. And you're still trying to make things worse.

    The ambiance of Quin’s new location was lovely; one of the most pleasant placed he had been to. The mansion that stood in the middle of the vicinity was so magnificent that Quin stared for a while before he returned his gaze to Doctor Col who had been standing next to him since they got out of the vehicle. “I wasn’t quite sure if this would suit your taste, Doctor Quin. But I hope you can please make do with this little space until we can be able to figure out a way to get you somewhere more befitting of someone of your standard.” Quin sighed, eyes on Doctor Col who bowed in deep reverence. For a few seconds, he refused to even say a word, but the Doctor was hoping to get a positive response from him. “This will do, Doctor Col. I have no need for anything conspicuous at this moment.” Quin was very brief with his speech, and that made Doctor Col sigh in deep relief. “Really?” He asked calmly to be certain that Quin was not going to have a change of mind, but the young Docto

With no cure. Twenty-four hours was all it took to take a life. "We should inform the heiress." "About what?" The eyes of the Director were cocked in a questioning manner. "About the situation.

Nobody will come here if anything happens to him. We can at least try." "Or you aren't the great Doctor that you say you are." Ben scoffed. Col racked his head.
