His forehead was marked by a mark that looked like a serpent coiling around a scepter as a strong force accumulated there.
For a brief moment, something changed inside him. He was still breathing. He was granted a second chance.Henry later found himself resting on the beach when he opened his eyes once more."Oh my God, what actually happened? I'm supposed to be dead. Is this actually real?" he felt the mark on his head.He then turned his gaze to his chest.Even though his body had healed and there was no visible scar, his clothing was still torn.And he could definitely feel the residual holy energy in his body. The overwhelming sensation was beyond words.It was too late to worry too much. He raced to the hospital because his mother was still there.He appeared to be a ghost to onlookers at this point. He ran like he was about to loose something precious."Oh my God, what kind of terrifying thing is this? He looks like a mad man?" Some of the onlookers saidHenry was blind to the difference in their looks. He just wanted to get moving.It was still possible to save his mother.He didn't sweat on the way. Everything appeared so easygoing. He reached his mother's ward in a hurry.He glanced at Josephine Brown, his comatose mother.Grabbing her hand, Henry instantly focused his mind and used his divine power to examine his mother's physique, based on what he remembered.His mother's physical state soon became apparent to him.Overwork and numerous undiagnosed illnesses were the root causes of his mother's health issues. Her intestines were not functioning regularly due to severe damage to her liver and tumors and ulcers in her stomach."Heal them all!"Henry softly concluded his mantra, and a moment later, a blue light flickered from his mark.Josephine was laying on the hospital bed when a soft force enveloped her and swiftly removed the illness from her body.She started coughing!The blue light vanished soon when his mother coughed, and the blue light gradually faded."I think I had a dream..."Josephine sat up and opened her eyes. She was surprised to discover that she was in a better frame of mind than when she was in her twenties and that she had never been so comfortable.Henry hesitantly inquired, "Mom, how are you feeling?""I'm feeling great, my dear son. What happened? Why do I suddenly feel better?""Mother, this might be a blessing from God!"Henry did not address the legacy of the healing abilities since he could not come up with an explanation.This was, after all, an anomaly that defied scientific understanding.Josephine was used to a hard life, and her frugal nature was already engrained in her. "Perhaps so. Since I've recovered, let's get out of the hospital soon. The daily expenses here are quite high.""Mom, don't worry. Let's go for a checkup first."Henry was concerned even though his mother was doing well.The hospital was enraged upon learning the examination's results.The attending physician for Josephine saw the results and leaped to her feet. "Oh my God, I can't believe it. This is a miracle. Mr. Brown, your mother is really blessed by God. She recovered in just one day. From the examination report, your mother is not just cancer-free, but extremely healthy as well."It's a miracle, the other physicians exclaimed with excitement as well.Henry left the director's office and took care of the discharge processes. "It's all thanks to the doctor's treatment that my mother is well," he said, knowing full well what happened.An employee ran out to him as he was ready to sign the discharge papers, "Mr. Brown, please wait a moment. I still have to process your refund.""A refund?" Henry thought he could have misheard. How could there be a refund when it was already good enough that he owed the hospital nothing?"Yes, the payment was transferred to us half an hour ago. It was paid by a lady named Emily Millers.""Is it actually Emily?" Henry exclaimed, shocked and stunned.Even though Emily had not been kind to him, he was still incredibly appreciative of all that she had done behind his back.Henry helped his mom to the door, where he waited for a vehicle. Five black cars sped in and immediately stopped, halting before Josephine's wheelchair.Without delay, Henry moved forward and embraced his mother.His mother might have needed to visit the hospital once more if he had been any slower. "Hey, what are you guys doing?"Henry said with anger.Henry felt Josephine tug his arm. "Henry, calm down. I'm fine. We'd better not cause any trouble."At this point, almost a dozen strong men stepped out of the vehicle. On their shoulders, they were all tattooed with the same green skull logo.Henry knew what the symbol meant. It represented the members of the shark loan who Henry had previously borrowed money from.Henry was seized by the collar by a burly man who stepped forward. "You piece of trash, how quick are you to forget you came to our office to borrow money few months ago?"Months ago, Henry had gone and borrowed a huge amount of money from the loan shark in order to buy drugs for his mother since no one was willing to give him any money.And now they were back to collect it and Henry doesn't have any money to repay the loan he took.Henry remained calm. He gave the hefty man holding him a chilly glare.Josephine went forward quickly and gave the strong man a hug around his arm. "Sir, it's our fault. I apologize. Please how much is the money? We'll pay back.""The money is five hundred thousand dollars. But since it has been a month, the interest has increased to a million dollars," the man said.Josephine and Henry became shocked. How could they add half of the money he borrowed as interest when it was barely a month. The amount was unfair."Please sir, it's unfair. We don't have such amount. It will be good if you reduce the interest so that we can pay it." Josephine pleaded.With a strong swing of his arm, the burly man said, "You're an old hag who's like a piece of trash. Do you think I have the time to reduce the interest because you and your wretched son can't pay the amount? Who do you think you are? Get lost."After making the statement, the burly man grabbed Josephine's wheelchair and threw it out."Mom!" Henry said, shoving the strong man aside and grabbing his mom."Today, I'm going to disgraced you and make you kneel in front of the hospital!" The shark loan members angrily exclaimed."Then let's see whose fist is harder."Henry would never have lowered his head or compromised his dignity for the benefit of a nasty person if he hadn't been endowed with heavenly power."Who dares to put up a fight with the Shark loan members? Do you want to die?"At this point, the head of the shark loan owner, Lucas, stepped out of a car wearing sunglasses. Rebecca was there, too.Has she found another rich man quickly and dumped Jacob? such a shameful whore.It appears that the Wayne family were the owners of the shark loan business where Henry came to borrow money from. Henry never knew that the Lucas family owned the business neither was he aware that the head of the shark loan was Jacob.Lucas had begged his father for the opportunity to run the business so he'll be able to use it and sho
"We need to find a new apartment. Our former one is no longer save..." Henry told his mother when they arrived home.Josephine wanted to turn down the idea but after seeing what happened earlier, it was best they packed out of their current apartment."They'll continue to hunt us. It's no use running away." Josephine said.Holding his mother's hand, Henry careful explained, "I'll find a way to pay them back. but first, I need to ensure you're save. This people are dangerous."Nodding, the both of them spend their time packing their precious belongings. After they were done, Henry flagged down a taxi and helped put their small luggages into the car."Take us to south town,"Henry told the driver their address and the car drove off.*******"Henry, you shouldn't have been so impulsive just now..."As Josephine spoke, she glanced worriedly at Henry in the car.Henry cut her off before she could say anything more, assuring her, "Mom, don't worry. It'll be fine."Josephine could not calm he
After she was done talking, she turned towards Henry "Come with me after you've cleaned things up. I have something to tell you." She then went back to the car.Henry said goodbye to his mother and got into the car after packing the belongings.Emily buckled up her seat belt and turned on the car while they speedily drove off.Finally, the both of them arrived at a mall entryway. Henry walked behind Emily as she led the way.Gazing sideways, Emily's hips wavered with each step. It was quite alluring. After seeing it, Henry's mouth felt parched. Suddenly he was bumped from behind by someone, and he threw himself over Emily, giving her an unconscious hug. He put his hands on her chest.Simultaneously, some information concerning Emily emerged in Henry's consciousness.[Status: She has an upcoming sickness...][Cause: She was cursed]While Henry was trying unconsciously to take the curse off of Emily's body, she violently shoved him away, "You pervert, what are you doing?" She warned him
But as soon as he grasped the old man's soul by the arm, he became aware that the man was being drawn away by an unseen force."You can't!"Henry drew the old Papa away. He had a gut feeling that even God would fail to save the man if he failed to retrieve his soul!The ambulance also showed up at the site at this point. The old man received rapid initial diagnosis and treatment from the physician and nurses.The doctor paused his work after a while, placed the hearing aid away, and gave the granddaughter a regretful look."I'm sorry, Miss. He can't survive."The granddaughter fell onto her Papa, sobbing uncontrollably."No! It can't be like this! You must have a way!"The physician was accustomed to this type of conduct. With a sorry shake of his head, he hurried on to the next patient.The granddaughter called out to the throng while raising her head in desperation."Preserve him! Is there anyone who can help my grandfather?""Whoever can save my father, I'll give them half of the B
Henry received a red square box from the policeman after he had explained the circumstances."Ms. Sophia Benjamin asked me to pass this to you. She said it's a small gift from her."Henry accepted the red box without protest.There was no reason for him to turn down Sophia Benjamin's gift—he had just saved her grandfather.After this encounter, Emily changed her mind and went back to the car. Originally, she had planned to bring Henry over to make some purchases.Henry was forced to leave the accident scene and get into his automobile.Emily wanted to tell Henry how sorry she was for what had happened just now in the car.But up until now, she had always taken the lead in their relationship.She found it incomprehensible that she now needed to apologize to Henry.Consequently, her final words were a rebuke, even though she truly wanted to apologize to Henry."The next time you encounter such a situation, don't make a move so casually. If you make a mistake today and cause an even grea
As Lucas and his thugs prepared to leave, thinking they had avenged themselves, Suddenly, Men dressed in black emerged from another corridor, blocking their exit. Lucas, surprised, demanded, "Who the hell are you?"One of the mysterious figures coldly replied, "Just consider us the consequence you didn't anticipate."Before Lucas could react, the men swiftly overpowered him and his gang. Fists flew, and in a matter of moments, Lucas and his thugs found themselves beaten and tied up. The leader of the group stepped forward, observing the thug who laid sprawled on the floor groaning in pain.Lucas, struggling to speak, managed to utter, "Who sent you?"The leader smirked, "Let's just say it's someone who's had enough of your little games."As Lucas and his gang groaned in pain, Sophia Benjamin stepped out from a hidden corner, with a determined look on her face. She had been silently observing the incident, and now she had decided to intervene.With a composed tone, Sophia said, "I sug
The Miller family's much-anticipated art exhibition had finally arrived, transforming the Skyler Hotel into a beautiful showcase of creativity. The walls of the hotel were decorated with various types of paintings, sculptures, and other artistic expressions from each family member. The day has finally arrived, and most members of the millers family were excited and nervous. The Skyler Hotel's expansive hall was filled with various artworks, setting the stage for the Miller family's exhibition. Each member had carefully prepared their pieces, hoping to captivate the audience with their unique art.The guests, some who were art enthusiasts and curious onlookers, began to trickle in, amazed by the diverse collection on display.Emily's sister, Vanessa, and her husband, Robert, took their positions beside their artworks with an air of proudness. They spoke loudly, comparing their art with the rest of the family.Vanessa dramatically pointed toward her painting, "Robert, darling, tell
As the laughter and various discussion was ongoing in the exhibition all by all who had gathered, , a mysterious figure dressed in pure white entered the venue. The air shifted as the mysterious man began to stroll through the gallery, carefully examining each piece with an intensity that caught everyone's attention.Henry, still explaining his art, sighted what the man was doing and whispered to Emily, "Looks like we got ourselves an art police who just arrived out of the blue. We better brace ourselves."The mysterious man, with an air of authority, approached each piece, offering thoughtful critiques. His evaluations ranged from poetic praises to witty observations, adding a touch of sophistication to the evening.When he reached Vanessa and Robert's art, the couple put on their best charm offensive, ready to win over the mysterious art critic. Vanessa, with a coquettish smile, said, "Oh, we were hoping someone with a discerning eye would appreciate the beautiful essence of our w
