“How is it? Can you cure her?” Martin asked skeptically.

“It’s a bit tricky but I can do it.” Henry nodded.

“Alright then I’ll let you have a go. But bear in mind if anything happens to my daughter I’ll see that you pay for it severely!” Martin threatened.

“Don’t worry I know what I’m doing.”

Just as Henry took out a needle and was about to apply it a roar sounded at the door.

“Hold it!”

“Stop whatever you’re doing!” The voice bellowed.

Owen Reed strode in imposingly and shouted “Uncle Martin we do not know this man! We cannot let him put Sophia’s life at risk!”

“I understand that you’re worried for Sophia, Owen. But we do not have any better alternatives now. He is our only hope.” Martin shook his head.

“Who says we have not got any better alternatives? See who I brought!” Owen gestured dramatically and directed everyone’s attention to the entrance.

In came a podgy old man dressed in a loose green robe. He made his way confidently.

“Dr. Oliver?” There was an instant uproar

    He then took out several needles and swiftly inserted them into Sophia’s skin on her nape her navel below her knees on the base of her feet and on her back. His movements were so swift and executed with such ease and skill that his audience was left in awe. By the time his needles were all in place wisps of cold air slowly came out of Sophia’s limbs. “And for the last one!” Oliver produced a needle that was thicker and longer than the rest and inserted it straight on top of Sophia’s head. Soon a great deal of mist emerged from all over Sophia’s skin. For a brief moment everyone in the room was surrounded by an eerie chill. “Alright the coldness is now expelled. It won’t be long now before the patient comes around” Oliver declared confidently. “No wonder you’re a world–renowned miracle healer. Your acupuncture therapy is just plain magical!” Martin exclaimed excitedly. His gloom and anxiety from earlier on were swept away in an instant. “That’s right! With Dr. Oliver around an

    “Buddy please try your best to save her. No matter what the outcome is, we can take it!” Diana looked at him with resoluteness, her mind made up and ready to face any consequences. “I can help her but when I’m done I hope Mister Patel will deliver on his end of the promise.” Henry approached Sophia who was still unconscious on her bed and helped her sit up. With just one hand he applied needles at 13 different pressure points on Shella’s body. His technique was extraordinary.When the 13 needles began to rotate on the spot in the pressure points he gave Sophia a strong smack on the back. Sophia wavered, her head jerked upwards and she spat several white crystals which landed on the ground with a resounding thunk. The crystals were a murky white color and gave off a bone–chilling mist. “The coldness has crystallized?” Oliver’s expression was one of disbelief. No wonder his acupuncture served no purpose. It turns out that the coldness that Sophia’s body had been absorbing over the

    “Who else but me?” Owen made his way in haughtily. He had in his hands a small red wooden box that held the Auric root. “Hey buddy! Uncle Martin’s given me the Auric root. It’s mine now!” Owen patted the box smugly with a Sneer. “So what if the rascal stole the limelight today? Ultimately I’m the one who benefited from it! At the end of the day he’s just a lowly peasant!” Owen thought. “Martin Patel! You are an influential person with high social standing and you carry the honor of the Patel family with you! How could you go back on your words and betray someone who has helped you? Are you not afraid that you’d be ridiculed?” Henry slammed his hand on the table and stood up. He was truly angry. He could understand Martin’s previous change of mind as it was a matter pertaining to his daughter’s health condition. Oliver had a reputation for having great expertise in his field which naturally made him more deserving of trust on Martin’s end. But now it was a different case altogethe

The two chatted about many things until Mia suddenly spoke up.“Henry I need a favor from you.” “What is it?” Henry asked suspiciously. “I’m going to a reunion with some of my classmates later can you come with me and be my bodyguard?” Mia was very straightforward. “The Philip family has so many bodyguards why do you need me? I’m not interested” Henry refused. “How can those men compare to you? Well to be honest with you there’s a really annoying guy among my classmates who’s been pursuing me. I told him I have a boyfriend but he doesn’t believe me. That’s why I need you to come along.” Mia pouted. “In conclusion you’re just using me as an excuse! That makes me even less interested.” Henry shrugged. “Hey! I consider you a friend and you won’t even help me with this small matter? Where’s your loyalty?” Mia had a displeased expression on her face. “What do you mean? Don’t talk nonsens

It was so damn infuriating to talk to this guy! “Punk you’ve got a sharp tongue but what good does it do? You will always be inferior to me in every way. In the face of my complete dominance sweet talk and flattery will get you nowhere!” Sebastian sneered. “Oh so what?” Henry retorted. “You…” Sebastian’s mouth twitched feeling annoyed.

    “He only knows how to talk big but he’s actually just a coward!” “What a wimp disgusting loser!” Remaining silent would have been better for Henry as anything he said only led to contempt. “Punk it’s obvious that you don’t have the guts nor the ability to fight. Why pretend to be tough? If you kneel down and beg. I might teach you a few moves so you won’t wet yourself from fear the next time.” Sebastian sneered. “If you’re so capable then take down those two behind you first.” Henry pointed his chin to the door. Sebastian turned around in surprise and saw that there were indeed two more people. Both of them were bald one dressed in green and the other in black. They were muscular and burly men with fierce eyes and bulging biceps. “Oh! Who are these two men who don’t fear death?” Sebastian smirked scornfully. “Was it you who injured our men?” The bald man in green spoke first. “Yes it’s me. What are you going to do about it?

Mr. Layren.” Davina nodded. “Yes, yes, nice to meet you, too. As expected of a daughter of the Harris family–you’re the very embodiment of beauty and grace!” Robert looked delighted.

  • Getting Rid Of Them

    “Brown” was the pinnacle of power. Many people shared the same surname, but there was only one family that held that type of emblem. That family incurred fear from countless others, and no one dared to challenge them. “The Brown Emblem! W–who are you?” Peter gripped the badge with both hands, his body began to shake, and beads of sweat ran down his forehead. “You must be blind! This is Sir Damon Fletcher!” The large man hollered. “Damon Fletcher?” At the sound of the name, Peter immediately paled in fear. Not many knew of that name, but that man had a popular nickname–the Executioner! He had an infamous reputation for being the human butcher who sliced people like butter. There were three great generals in the Brown family–the Executioner, the Sword Whisperer, and the Drunken Maniac. Each one of them was enough to shake the country. The Executioner, Damon Fletcher, was the strongest of them all. He was so terrifying that kids would cry at the mention of his name. Rumor had it

Why do you still have feelings for that asshole? I’m telling you, Micheal’s the better man for you. He’s leagues above Henry! I’ll show you Henry’s true colors right now!” Mrs Miller yelled and began the playback, showing exactly what happened. By the time they reached the middle of the video, everyone had frozen in dismay. “Micheal Clark?” Mrs Miller was rooted to the spot as she stared in disbelief at the man violently assaulting Emily in the video.Everyone else’s jaws had dropped as well. Never in their dreams would they have imagined that the person who kidnapped Emily and tried to assault her would be Micheal, a respectful man from a noble family. How could this be possible? However, the video was right before their eyes. It turned out that the despicable person had been the “decent” man, Micheal, instead of H

    “I planned to finish you off in one go, but I changed my mind.” Henry approached calmly, his overwhelming presence making it hard for Michael to breathe, and Michael’s hand began to tremble uncontrollably. “Stop right there! You better stop, or I’ll fucking shoot your Michael yelled.However, Henry continued his way forward as if he hadn’t heard the other man. “You’re dead meat!” Michael gritted his teeth and aimed the gun at Henry’s head before pulling the trigger. Ear–splitting bangs rang out as the chamber was emptied of bullets. However, Henry had disappeared. Abruptly, he appeared less than two feet away in front of Michael. “You-” Startled, Michael tried to jerk backward, but Henry grabbed his hair and slammed his head into the wall with bang. Michael immediately passed out, his head bleeding. “H–Henry Now that the danger had passed, Emily’s body finally relaxed, and she fell into slumber. Henry glanced at the fallen man and pulled out his phone to call someone. 15 minut

  • I'll Have My Fill

    Henry hummed. He was about to say something else when his phone started ringing. Emily was calling him. Muffled noises could be heard as soon as he picked up. “Let me go. I want to go home.” Emily demanded weakly. “What do you mean ‘go home“? Look at how pretty Estelle Hotel is. Let’s keep drinking there.” Micheal cackled. “You can go alone. Piss off.” “Fucking slut! You better appreciate the chance I’m giving you. You don’t have a say in this. You’re drinking tonight. Get in!” As the phone fell to the floor, the cursing became softer until it completely faded away. Henry’s face darkened immediately, and the air around him became unbelievably cold. “What’s wrong, Mr. Brown?” Peter shivered. A loud slap rang out as Henry struck Peter across the face, causing the latter to fall to the floor. “You motherfucker! You better hope your son didn’t make a mistake, or I’ll destroy your entire family!” Henry opened the door and dashed out. “Huh?” Peter covered his cheek with a hand, d

  • Don't Be Rash

    “Don’t be rash, Micheal!” Peter warned gravely. “He has the Philip family to support him, and now, he has Eric Morgan‘s support as well. We’ll sink further if you do anything to him!” Alas, those words failed to reach Micheal, who has lost repeatedly to Henry recently. Today’s incident only fueled his anger, and his hatred toward Henry peaked. “Micheal, leave this matter to me. You should take a break for the next two days. Just don’t get into any trouble.” Peter instructed his son seriously, who didn’t reply as he began to plot his revenge. Soon, night fell. Inside Midnight Rose, Emily downed shot after shot in a corner. Julia sat beside her, her face full of worry. This was the first time she saw Emily like this. Emily refused to return to the company or care about what was going on, completely abandoning her strong woman character and letting herself go. Julia heard that it was because of Henry, but was it worth it? “Please stop drinking, Ms. Miller. Let’s go back. Your

  • I Won't Beg

    “The Philip family sure is bothersome. I have a feeling that our financial issues have something to do with them.” Peter pondered. “What do we do now, Dad? Should we fight to the death?” “No. We aren’t at the end of our rope yet. Let me make some calls. Peter pulled out his phone and began asking for help. The Clark family still had some friends and partners, so they’d definitely pull through as long as he managed to raise the funds. “Hey. Mr. Paul, it’s me. I’m kind of short on cash, so do you think you could help me out? I’ll pay you back with interest after the turnover.” “Hi, Mr. Andrew. This is Peter Clark. I’m calling to ask for a lavor.” “Hey, Mr. John. I need your help.” Peter made call after call to any of his friends who were well off. However, his face darkened with each call he made. As soon as they heard that he was trying to borrow money, these people who claimed to be his friends immediately changed their attitudes and came up with all sorts of excuses to refuse

  • He Got Lucky

    “That much?” Micheal’s expression drooped. “Would Morgan agree to loan us three billion in one go?” “Morgan controls one–third of all the cash flow in flaz city. What’re three billion dollars to him?” Peter took a sip of tea and said casually, “Not to mention, I even came here personally. Would he dare to say no? He should be happy that our family is cozying up to him on our own accord instead.” “That’s true.” Hearing those words, Micheal let out a sigh of relief. The Clark family did have prestige out there; Morgan had to give them some respect. As the two were speaking, the door suddenly opened, and a few people entered. The one in the lead was none other than Eric. The moment they met. Peter stood up and extended a hand, his face full of smiles. “Hey, Mr. Morgan! Long time no see. You’ve gotten much more handsome!” However, when he saw Henry behind Eric, his smile froze on his face. “Punk, what are you doing here?!”“You’re here, so why can’t I be here too?” Henry retorte

It helps clear up circulatory pathways and heal internal injuries. Give it a try.”“Okay!” Without another word, Eric took the pill and swallowed it.As soon as the tablet entered his system, it turned into a rush of warmth that spread through his body..Instantly, he felt his mood lift, and his body felt better in a way he couldn’t explain.The pain in his lower back had also improved significantly.“Amazing This is amazing!
