2024-10-28 14:58:43As soon as Liam spoke, the room erupted in anger. It was one thing if he did not know how to heal Natalie, but what he was saying now was outright insulting.
“Who the hell do you think you are to question Dr. Barret?” Michael snapped irritably, “Do you even know who he is?”
“I think it’s time you leave since you’re just going to keep interfering with Dr Barret’s treatment.” He demanded coldly.
Liam shifted his gaze across the room and was met with cold, annoyed looks.
He shrugged and heaved a tired sigh.
Over the years, he had cured thousands, but he had also seen hundreds of people die because they refused to trust him. As a healer, he couldn’t force his treatment on anyone.
“Believe it or not, you are actually putting her life at risk by leaving her in the hands of that man.” He said his voice calm but resolute, and without waiting for a response, turned and walked out.
“Get out!” Lisa roared with anger.
However, just when Lisa roared, she heard a scream from a maiden.
"Madam...Miss Natalie..." The maiden's voice trembled.
Lisa turned back shockingly, and she was frightened by what she saw.
Natalie started moaning in pain, her body trembling in discomfort.
Lisa rushed to Doctor Barret, panicking,
“Doctor, please do something.” Lisa cried out.
Noticing that Liam had left the room, Doctor Barret sneered and turned back to the girl, “That arrogant bastard thinks he knows more than me?” He said, his pride clearly hurt.
Lisa tried to smooth things over with him,
“Doctor Barret, please forgive us. Just save my daughter.” She said apologetically, trying to appease him.
“That’s okay,” he replied, and turned towards the maids,
“Hold her still, I’m going to administer the shot.” He added with a look of confidence.
Without question, some of the maids held Natalie down and he administered the injection.
Almost immediately, Natalie’s body became relaxed.
“I told you she’ll be fine,” Doctor Barret said with a smug smile.
“Just give her five more minutes and she’ll be able to get up on her feet.”
For a moment, it looked like he was right. Natalie’s breathing calmed and she became more relaxed.
But, precisely ten seconds later, her breathing suddenly became heavy, and her body shook violently.
Lisa gasped, her mind racing in panic as Natalie vomited blood, and her nose began to bleed, “Doctor, what’s happening to her?”
Mark’s face drained in color as he watched in horror, blood starting to seep from Natalie’s eyes and ears.
“Do something!” He shouted at Doctor Barrett, “I thought you said she was going to be fine, how can this be happening?!”
Doctor Barret stepped back, his confidence shattered, “I…I don’t know how this is possible.” He stammered, staring helplessly.
Michael snapped, his heart racing, “You’re supposed to be an expert!” He yelled helplessly, not sure what to do, “Don’t just stand there, do something! She’s my daughter!”
If his daughter died, he would never be able to forgive himself.
However, right at that moment, he suddenly remembered what Liam had said, his eyes widening in shock.
The young man was right.
Just as he realized this, his phone suddenly rang, stirring him out of his thoughts.
He quickly glanced at the screen and saw that it was Jack Gunter.
Without delay, he quickly answered the call, “Mr. Young, has the Young Master arrived yet?” Jack’s voice came over the other end of the line.
“Young Master? What are you talking about?” Michael asked in confusion.
“I asked Master Moran to help treat your daughter. He should have arrived by now. Haven’t you seen him?” Jack asked curiously.
As soon as Michael heard those words, his hands weakened in shock, his eyes widening as realization hit him like a punch.
The young man he’d just driven away was the famed Master Moran, and the thought made his stomach churn in fear.
Without hesitation, Michael ran out of Natalie’s room, fear and panic surging through him.
He could not believe he’d just spoken so rudely to his young master and only hope of saving his daughter’s life.
He reached the driver just as Liam was waiting for a taxi.
Desperate, he threw himself in front of the car, dropping to his knees with hands clasped in a plea.
Startled, Liam frowned and stared at the man blocking his path.
He stopped the car and quickly stepped out, approaching him with concern,
“Young master, please forgive me,” Michael cried, his forehead pressed to the ground, “I had no idea who you were… You’re the only one who can save my daughter. She’s dying in there. Everything you said was true. Please, please help her.” Michael begged.

If I had left this compound, your daughter would be dead before I could return.” Michael’s face crumbled with regret and fear. He broke down begging earnestly, the reality of his mistakes flashing before his eyes. “Young master, please forgive me. I didn’t know who you were.

After Natalie had been stripped naked, Liam took a deep breath and began the procedure. He looked at Natalie, steadying his breath, feeling the flow of energy through his body. He rubbed his hands, and then pressed them gently over her body, transferring the healing energy from his hands onto her body, and after a short while, he stopped.The water in the bathtub turned murky brown with a foul smell.It was as if the toxins from Natalie’s body were being rapidly expelled and neutralized by the chemicals in the bathtub.About an hour later after he had completed his treatment, Natalie’s face became less pale and filled with life immediately. She slowly blinked her eyes open, gradually regaining her consciousness.Although her vision was still hazy, she could see a faint figure towering over her and immediately screamed.“Who are you?!” She shouted, her face tinged with fear and confusion.She had been unconscious the whole time Liam was treating her, but in that moment she was suddenl

After Liam left the mansion, he drove straight to his newly gifted mansion, exhausted from his day. However, as soon as he walked into the house, his phone suddenly buzzed. Heaving a tired sigh, Liam retrieved the phone wondering who could be calling at this time. Seeing it was Mia, he hesitated for a while and then answered. He had barely said hello before Mia’s annoyed voice sounded, “Listen, my grandfather has demanded that we register for our marriage first thing tomorrow morning. I’ve tried to talk him out of it and convince him that we don’t need to rush into it, but he won’t let up. So meet me at the registrar's office tomorrow morning, do not keep me waiting.” Liam hesitated for a while. He could tell from her tone that she did not want this marriage, but there was not much he could do. “Okay, I’ll be there.” “Does it not bother you?” Mia sharply interjected, her voice tinged with anger and frustration. “I mean you are about to enter a fake marriage with a complete

Outside the hall, several young people were gathered, watching as Victor attempted to break his own record. Liam glanced and could see a man firing an arrow at a target with several others. Suddenly the announcer yelled in excitement, “Ladies and gentlemen, I can’t believe it. Victor Carpi has set a new record. He’s the undefeated archery champion of the world!” Victor turned around, bowing gracefully to the cheers and applause from the crowd and then he spotted Yona and approached her with a smile. “Yona, Mia, I’m glad you could make it.” But just as he spoke, his eyes fell on Liam and immediately, the excitement on his face slowly faded. “So he’s here too.” “Yeah unfortunately so. He’s Mia’s husband, they
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Liam Wins?
However, Liam did not pay attention to Victor's provocation; he remained confident, but the people around him booed. "Country bumpkin, just admit defeat! Victor scored full marks! Don't be a clown!" Liam ignored the people around him and took the bow and arrows handed to him by the staff. Victor looked at Liam in disbelief, "Kid, don't you understand the rules of archery? I've already scored full marks; there's no way you can beat me! I advise you to admit defeat early and divorce Mia!" Liam glanced at him mockingly, "The competition isn't over yet, and you already think you've won?" Hearing Liam's words, Victor sneered, "Fine, then let me see how this clown will perform!" Liam ignored the surrounding boos and jeers and easily picked up the bow and arrows. Just when everyone thought Liam was going to embarrass himself, he surprisingly pulled out three arrows in one go! Before the laughter could start, Liam quickly shot all three arrows within three seconds, and the onl
THE VENGEFUL HEIR President Young
Author’s POVMichael frowned upon seeing the crowd that formed. He had come to meet a friend and did not want to be disturbed and so waved his hand in displeasure, and immediately his bodyguards formed a wall, blocking off the guards. The camera flashes and whispers were cut short as his secretary stepped forward, her voice calm yet commanding,“Everyone please remain calm. Mr Young does not want to be disturbed, but he has told me to inform you that he will be hosting a charity banquet to express his gratitude to the divine doctor for healing his daughter.”The announcement sent a shockwave of excitement across the crowd. Soon they started whispering about the exclusivity of the event.Liam on the other hand did not look so interested. He knew the Young family was prominent, but seeing the reaction from the crowd, he could not help but be impressed.“Huh,” he scoffed with a thoughtful look, and Mia who was standing beside him turned around.“So President Young is so prestigious, int

I’ll get you to where you want to go.”Mia’s frustration increased, tired of his incessant pretentious acts.“You don’t have tickets either. Stop acting like you can just magically fix everything.”Liam chuckled softly, unfazed by her words. “Maybe you should stop underestimating me.”Mia huffed, but there was something about Liam’s calm demeanor that kept her waiting around a bit longer. Finally, she gave a reluctant nod, “Fine. Let’s go home.”Going back to the Stevens mansion with Liam was a feeling she had to get used to. With Liam around, she constantly felt like her space was being intruded upon and knew it would take some time to get used to that, but if she could not do anything to convince her grandfather about getting a divorce now, time with Liam would be

Get into President Young’s banquet?” “This isn’t some joke, Liam.”Yona chimed in, “Why are we even wasting our time listening to this braggart? We all know he doesn’t have any connections to get into any place.”Liam flashed them a cold smirk, ignoring them, and turned toward Mia, his gaze softening as he stared at her, “Would you like to go to the banquet with me?”Mia froze, caught off guard by the question. She did not know if she could trust Liam, but his confidence about getting them in had left her intrigued.

I'm the heir
After waiting patiently for a few moments, the gates finally swung open and the security guard ushered Lord David in. As the man walked into the building, his eyes widened in shock. The entire mansion was crawling with tons of security men and exotic cars. If Lord David didn’t already know Liam, he would have sworn this mansion belonged to one of the top families in the city. Shortly after he entered the building, Laura quickly approached him and when Lord David saw her, his eyes flashed in recognition, “You,” he paused, staring at her inquisitively, “Are you working with Liam?” He asked. Laura however did not answer his question. She flashed him a soft smile and gestured toward the front entrance of the building, “He’s waiting for you inside.”Lord David glanced around the mansion again and was filled with more confusion. He could tell that this building was worth at least a hundred million dollars. At this time, his mind recollected when Liam gave him that card. He had assured him
Facing The Truth
Lord David now had strong suspicions about Liam’s identity. No one, not even the Young family had the authority or influence to do what Liam just did. There was something about his best friend’s grandson that did not just come from courage. Although he was fairly certain that Liam was more than he put on, Lord David was determined to uncover the secret of his true identity. Without wasting any time, called his butler, gave him an address, and left the mansion. He knew exactly where to check for Liam. Although he’d been friends with Shawn for years, David had never bothered to visit Shawn at his home here in the city. He knew that if there was anywhere Liam would be through all of this, it would be at the Moran’s family house.The drive to Shawn’s home was filled with anticipation and curiosity. Lord David, although determined, did not know what he was going to do when he confirmed his suspicions. This whole thing had become more difficult for a man his age to keep in control. Realizi
Who should save the family
“What?!” Lord David exclaimed, reading the news headline again.The rest of the family quickly pulled out their phones and glanced at the screen. Yona was so shocked that her phone fell to the ground. She stood in utter shock, trying to process this.Every news channel carried the news, circulating Peter’s involvement in illegal activities, his ruthless business strategies which have forced a lot of small companies out of business, and ultimately his attempts to repeat the same thing with the the Steven’s company.Mia stood frozen in place. Somehow she suspected that Liam had something to do with this, and so decided to check the report for any clue. She scrolled towards the bottom of the page to check the journalist that wrote this and immediately she saw the name, her eyes widened in extreme shock.‘Chloe?’ She muttered inwardly, trying to wrap her head around this. She knew Chloe was determined to uncover Peter’s secrets and publish them for the world to see, but she hadn’t actuall
Family Meeting
“This is the main reason why these things are happening to this family. We are divided and struggling within ourselves when we should be working together for the best of the company and the family. And all this for what? Just so one of you can become the next head of the family?!” He paused, shifting a sharp gaze across the room.“I’m very disappointed in everyone in this room, and you can be rest assured that none of you are fit to lead this family.” Lord David added, “Do you think that I built this company, struggling with anyone for it?” He asked and without waiting for an answer, quickly added,“I labored, sweated, and endured so much so that you all can stand here today, but none of you have ever shown the same dedication towards making this company better and now thanks to you, I’ve lost everything I spent my entire life laboring for.”“Why are we standing around here when the person that we should be holding responsible is out there moving freely? We should call the cops right
She’s Perfect For It
“We are going to use the media to expose him,” Liam said with a mischievous smile. “This whole time, Peter has been the one using the media for his ambitions and stirring problems for us in the media. Since he wants to play that way, then I think we should give him a taste of his medicine,” he said and immediately shifted his gaze to Jack, “I want everything you have on Peter Nelson all over the media in the next hour.”Jack remained frozen the whole time, trying to process everything Liam said. Although he felt dreadful about stirring Peter up, he couldn’t refuse an order from Liam either. “I’ll talk to some journalist and get this going.” Jack replied, but Liam quickly cut him off, “No, no. I don’t think that is necessary. I already know the perfect person to use for this.” He said, his lips curving slowly,“Do you remember the journalist I asked you to look into?” Liam asked, staring directly at Jack.“Use her, “ he added before getting a response. “I think if we give Miss Chloe s
Flipping The Cards
After the call, Liam heaved a tired sigh and started walking towards the door. He felt tired and just wanted to finish dealing with all of this, but it seemed that as he finished with one problem, another one opened up.However, he knew he’d have to be ready for what he must do if the Tribunal chose not to support him. Although he knew their power still did not match his, they could pose an obstruction to him and make things harder for him.Suddenly, his phone buzzed. Liam thought it was Jack, but as he retrieved it, he saw a string of news flashes.Intrigued, he glanced at the screen and he froze instantly when he saw the notifications.It seemed that Carl had already informed Peter that he had been kicked out of the company. The Nelson group had just launched a hostile takeover of the Steven’s Group. Liam clenched his fist till his knuckles almost turned white. Peter had just called him out with this hostile takeover. At this time, Liam planned to show Peter Nelson just who he was
Drawing Sides
Melissa was shocked when Liam defended her. After everything that she had done to him, he was the last person she thought would come to her rescue. Liam shot her a knowing look and walked in between her and Lord David, “You know what I’m saying is right Sir, we can’t focus on what needs to be done about Carl, if you’re thinking of what your daughter almost did.” Lord David stood quietly, reflecting on Liam’s words. After a while, he heaved a deep sigh and turned towards Melissa, “He’s right, but I’m very disappointed in you Melissa. You’re supposed to know better than that.” Lord David scolded.“How will the rest of the family react to this and more importantly, what do we do about Carl? He’s behaving like an outlaw and we can’t allow such wildness in our family amid all the internet bashing we’re going through,” he paused, drawing a deep breath, “He can’t work at the company anymore. He’s become a liability and threat to this family and I need everyone to see the gravity of his acti
To Melissa's Rescue
The crowd gasped again when Carl fell flat on the floor. They were so stunned at Liam’s quick maneuver and strength. With just one strike, he knocked Carl out like he was a child.They shifted back unconsciously, watching Liam with fear and apprehension. Liam could see the dreadful looks on their faces, and even Lord David was stunned. Although what he did was not so incredible, he knew that it didn’t look easy. He had just gotten fed up with Carl's nuisances and decided to put him out cold, at least for a few minutes. “I’m sorry about that, everyone. This is a work environment, but it seemed Carl had forgotten that as well.” He said, and just then some security officers that Lord David had called arrived, quickly approaching Carl. They jacked him up and started dragging him towards the exit of the room, Carl regained his consciousness just then and slowly blinked open his eyes to see himself being dragged out.He started resisting, kicking, and trying to break free of the man’s grip
Fired
“I’ve made up my on what to do,” he said and shifted his attention back to the crowd. “First I want to sincerely apologize to everyone here. I can’t help thinking some of this is my fault. I’m the one who brought Carl into this family and company. If it wasn’t for me, he wouldn’t be here and the damages he’s caused us wouldn’t have happened. For that, I’ll take full responsibility for all the losses incurred by everyone on this board.” Hearing this, Liam stepped forward, trying to interrupt him,“Sir, are you sure about…” he started to speak, but Lord David interrupted him, stopping him mid-sentence.“I know that even though we are a family here, we all still have our own individual families and a member of mine has disrupted things in yours,” he paused, shifting his gaze to Carl. Carl held his gaze down, ashamed to look at Lord Steven now.“That is why I’m going to pay off all personal debts incurred by what my in-law has done, and in return, I ask that none of you should take up a
