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. Quinin squeezed his hands tightly. He knew that he would come but why did it have to be now? "What do you want?" George's stern voice inquired. "The man in the car. Get him out to us and we would have no issues at all." "Then you better start going already. That man is under the protection of the heiress of the Lincoln family. Leave now and we will forget this ever happened." "Oh, the heiress." The eyes of the thug brightened. "That would be Killing two birds with one stone." A bounty had already been placed on Xerxes in the underworld unknown to them. Anyone that was able to get the heiress would receive unimaginable wealth and connection that would serve them the rest of their lives. Luis' face deemed with a smile hidden underneath his murderous intentions. "Then I would have her outside the car if you don't mind. I heard she's pretty pretty. I could do a little touching before we eventually get to our final destination." George gnashed his teeths at the provoking words. The members of the gang drew closer, encircling the guard. Quinin wanted to go outside but Xerxes stopped him. "You can't leave. I haven't had you for myself yet. And I'm sure George would be able to take care of this." She stressed, still calm, making a joke even at the expense of such a situation. "I doubt George will be able to help." "He sure will. He's trained by the household of the Lincoln family. To not only assist me but also to protect me. There's nothing to be worried about." A loud bang was heard. The words in Xerxes lips froze. A slap just sent George flying to the other end of the street. "Do you have any other person that needs to be taught a lesson?" The leader of the gang inquired. Xerxes was still too dumbstruck to speak. Before she even realized what was happening, he had already stepped out of the car. Because the issue with her twin brother was an emergency, Lady Xerxes had not gotten the luxury of getting proper protection for herself. "Trying to be a coward again?" "Is running away really the only survival skill that you have? What happened to those large hairy balls of yours?" The leader of the gang mocked. "I wonder why the leader was so afraid of you when you're nothing but a weakling. This would be me showing him that he had mistaken you for someone else and you're nothing." He gritted his teeth. Xerxes shook her head. She was a beneficiary of the young man and could not even help. He was about to be delivered to the cold hands of death. She had never seemed so helpless all her life. If he decided that he wanted to run away, then Xerxes was definitely not going to fault him for it. , it would be the wise decision to make at this instant. The only problem was, how Quinin intended to pull such a feat. "If you don't mind. I'm running late. So kindly get out of my way." Quinn remained calm and unfazed, staring up at the rage boiling through the blood of the gang leader.

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

Doctor Col who was surprised that Quin could say such a thing to the Mayor had no other option than to go after Quin at once, leaving Oliver who remained on his knees. Oliver gasped loudly the moment he heard Quin’s utterance, but he also knew that his father deserved to die. Five years earlier, Quin had been summoned to the Mayor’s Villa to help with a little fever that was troubling his wife. Quin instructed that nothing else be given to her after he had given her just a pill to take, but the Mayor’s Physician was not satisfied with what the ordinary farmer had instructed them to do.He was equally angered by the fact that his duty was shifted to someone else who was younger, and who he considered unprofessional and unfit compared to him. Unfortunately, the Mayor’s wife almost died after the Physician decided to go against Quin’s instruction.

Screams."Pervert!"Emily grappled to the bed sheet, stumping out from the bed with a face widened with shock."Did you dare to touch me last night?" She growled at the young man lying on the bed."Wow, what a pretty way of saying good morning and thank you for last night!" Quinn face ran cold."Did you?" Emily's brows twitched."Why should I? There's nothing to amuse me with."Emily bubbled with rage. She was the gem of the Eastside city and also the heiress of the fastest-rising company in the city.Men would lurk after her like ants to sugar from afar, it would be a dying wish to even lay on the same bed with her.Yet, some farm-looking boy just discarded her like a heap load of garbage. It was difficult to point out what she was angry at, his comment or the fact that she could sense that she had been taken advantage of."You're not only a pervert but also irresponsible?" Her eyes popped up."Getting drunk and ending up in a room that isn't yours? A well thought out definition of r

Before Emily could give a response, he already stepped forward with a glamour to his face. Seeing the commotion involving Emily, was another way to shine forth his proposal. "Hello Mr. Farm boy. Seems you're new in town." He observed. "I should give you a survival tip. When you come into a new place. You do a thorough study on the people you should and shouldn't mess with." He smirked. "And such persons include myself and Lady Emily." "If that's all you have got to say, please excuse me, I have an appointment to catch." The crowd was awestruck. Nobody would dare to speak to Kelly in such a manner. If someone else were to be in the shoes of Quinin, they would be shaking in their booths already. "Because you're new.. I am going to let that slide." He slapped on Quinin's shoulders multiple times. "And we a no will all pretend like today is a normal day and let you off the hook, only if you apologize to Lady Famous for your insolence." His words flashed with murderous intents as h

Quinin waited patiently, far away from the drama. The crowd was already clearing out and he opted to get the gift later in the day. A brand new Porsche stopped right besides Quinin, and the rest members of the crowd almost gawked their throats out. A man who was well-known to everyone in the city stepped off the card. Mr. Nam, one of the first five power-ranking men in the city, known to have built his own empire. "Sir. Quinin. I'm very sorry I came late. It will not happen again." He apologized gravely, bowing multiple times, even though it was just a few seconds. "It's fine. Just get me to the hospital as soon as possible." "Okay, sir." Nam quickly opened the door and walked in. A group of pedestrians watching from afar were stunned. Mr. Nam , known to be powerful and ruthless, acting with so much caution around someone was unheard of. "Isn't that the guy that quarreled with Kelly a few moments ago?" Someone in the crowd inquired and his words were met with mocking l

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.

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

The Hatuis surfaced three years back, taking the life of five prominent men in Eastside city. Up till this day, nobody knows exactly what it was. It disappeared with no trace afterward. 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. The earlier the better for all of us." Doctor Col informed. "We aren't going to do any such thing. Do you understand who heiress Xerxes is and how this is going to impact our hospital? 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.
