Juliette was in a pool of tears that she didn't realize Raphael Gauthier had been stuck in thoughts.

“Where's your father?” he asked once again to temporarily flinch Juliette out of her whimpering.

“He's in his abode. Your old neighborhood,” she managed to respond before returning to her saddened gesture.

Raphael Gauthier stared at the old man who nodded his head knowing why his student gave him that look.

“I'll be there in less than twenty minutes,” he boldly said before ending the call.

The old man stood from his chair after being seated for almost two hours. He embraced his student and patted his shoulders.

“Dear student. The young master. The time has come for you to officially practicalize all you've been learning.”

“I believe Juliette's call was for a reason and a call for a greater good. The question is are you ready?” he made some statement before asking Raphael Gauthier an intriguing question.

Raphael Gauthier unleashed a complicated emotion: the fact Mr Alain was his godfath

    “Neck Infection? Huh?” Juliette reactively responded with her eyes popping out in shock and confusion.Raphael Gauthier calmly nodded his head and returned to his healing process. He rubbed a reasonable quality of his mixed healing ingredients on Mr Alain's neck on the exact spot where the boil had grown.Doctor Maurice sneered loudly. His ego bruised the most after hearing Raphael Gauthier diagnose what was wrong with Mr Alain. He hated Raphael's impassive aura and his easiness in making serious issues seem very easy. [He couldn't just fathom how he does that]“Neck infection and so on? What's so special in his diagnosis thus far? Why do you feel so special when you aren't?” Miss Genevieve came all out against Raphael Gauthier who was still running the herbal ingredients.Raphael Gauthier finally decided to have her time since he was done rubbing Mr Alain's neck with what was inwardly prescribed.“Really?

    All eyes went directly towards the necklace. It had been a dramatic day that no one noticed what he had been wearing around his neck.Raphael Gauthier at that moment knew how tactical he needed to be to avoid drawing unwarranted attention on the necklace he was wearing.He knew for a fact he couldn't reveal the potency of the necklace and why he always had it on his neck.“Thank you godfather I'm happy you're awakened after about twenty-one days,” Raphael Gauthier said while offering a hug which Mr Alain reciprocated.“Oh, you love my necklace. It's simply a beautiful gift,” He casually responded to avoid further questions or explanations.All eyes left the sight of the necklace and gazed back at Mr Alain.“Godson thank you for coming through when I was near to breathing my last breath,” Mr Alain lacked words to express how grateful he was.He held onto Raphael Gauthier's right finger while the great healer glanced at the reddish swollen boil and noticed the size had gradually subside

She promptly disentangled from her teary state and had her eyes fixated on his eyeballs.“Huh?”“Sir-sir… Sir, you'd help me?” she managed to spill out while uncontrollably gazing at him.Raphael Gauthier beamed a little bit and understood how surprised she was that someone was willing to stand by her in her time of despair.“Of course, I'll. You're my friend, remember?” Raphael Gauthier boldly responded with a calmer tone.“Oh my goodness!” She screamed in joy with her eyes widened.In reaction, she stood from the office chair and desired to kneel before her boss in appreciation.However, before she could squeeze her knees, Raphael Gauthier intervened and held her hands, hence stopping her from indulging in such an act.“No need to fall on your knees.

Little wonder Celine ran to his office to have him duly informed.“Sir. I'll be at my office. The staff is still producing more wines for our New York City clients,” Celine quickly said while making efforts to walk back to her office.“Good. They had already paid over sixty percent of the bill.

    “I don't care if I die the next minute or get arrested and pay for my crimes. As long as I divulge what has been hidden for decades, then my part has been done,” Hugo mouthed with a short gasp breath, his face gripped with sweat as he held onto his step-older brother.All along, Raphael had presumed his younger stepbrother was bluffing about having information to spill. It seemed like he had finally gotten his attention.“Really? You got any information?” his brows raised in keenness.Agathe waved at the medical personnel who sheepishly departed from the room. They had already overstayed. It's family time!“Yes, I do, dear brother…”“I know none of my words would change the past and the evil I've done to you, which led to the death of your mother, banishment, and many others, including sleeping with your ex-wife,” he spilled those hard words out. And once again, the ugly past flashed before Raphael’s face.Agathe strode towards him and patted his shoulder; she understood how painful i

    For the greater good of his power and what it believes in, Hugo Lambert should be saved by his older stepbrother despite the pains he has inflicted. GrandLord Raphael Gauthier, in a state of pain and anger, understood that and had to do the needful.‘Hugo you've fought so hard against death. Time to come back to us,’ GrandLord Raphael Gauthier communioned with the deteriorated state of Hugo Lambert.He believed he could hear his words. One of the containers had a well-prepared honey with herbal ointment in it as his inner power whispered what he should do.Agathe Lambert muttered a thousand prayers in her heart as her hands shook in fear. She might not be a great fan of Hugo from inception but she wouldn't want him dead either. The medical personnel stood in disorientation as they beheld the unprecedented movie being played before their eyes.GrandLord Raphael Gauthier signaled Agathe Lambert, who assisted in slightly opening Hugo's mouth to enable him to pour the herbal medicine insi

    Agathe Lambert was struck in a state of slight confusion and vibrantness. She quickly strode towards where Hugo Lambert had laid for over a week as his health deteriorated. The medical renowned doctors followed behind to witness what would unfold sooner.It wasn't a pretense that the medical experts had little or no hope of what the GrandLord could do differently. They engaged in indistinct communication amongst themselves while their faces were etched with doubts, disbelief, and slight confusion.Grand Lord Raphael Gauthier stood face to face before his stepbrother. He exhaled deeply with his eyes intentionally closed while he trailed his oil-soaked right finger on his chest towards his abdomen back to his chest and throat.Agathe Lambert instantly wondered what Raphael's right finger was doing on Hugo's chest. She somewhat feared that he might want to avenge what happened to his late mother. The medical personnel maintained their indistinct conversations with their heads and eye gou

    She knew GrandLord Raphael Gauthier was quite an intentional human and wouldn't mouth those unexpected words if he didn't mean them. Nonetheless, she couldn't control how astonished she seemed.For a moment she gave up on GrandLord Raphael Gauthier ever believing her about Hugo Lambert or what he had to tell him. She believed the past ugly incident would cloud his judgment on believing her.“The more time we waste the less chance he has to survive the poison,” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier quickly spoke out.He promptly offered Agathe Lambert his right hand as an aid to lift herself off the ground. He went ahead and offered her a white handkerchief to wipe off her tears while she made efforts to stand.The driver had his mouth slightly opened at how he thought he'd soon head back to the mansion or the office. However, his boss had other plans for the day.“Why the sudden change of heart? I could swear you would have zoomed off without looking back,” Agathe Lambert hinted as her eyes popp

    He tutted his lips even more in disagreement and displeasure with his lips curved in disbelief and contempt. He shook his head more often while anticipating what Agathe Lambert would say next.She wasn't making any single sense with her words about Hugo Lambert's poisoned state and his request to speak with him. Agathe Lambert temporarily went speechless while glancing at him and other gatekeepers who could grasp the building conversations.“Drop this trick to get me to heal him 'cause that's not happening. He caused the death of my mother. You wasted your time in making me come over,” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier blurted out while taking a step backward.He felt there were no more words left unsaid with his younger step-sister and got to head back to the mansion or, better still, see how Pierre was handling business in his absence.It was better than being at the wrong time at the wrongest time. Driving from the mansion on Agathe Lambert's request seemed like a waste of time.“Good day

    “Several medical professionals have conducted several diagnoses, but he's none responsive to their treatments,” Agathe Lambert, after a few moments, uttered more words to establish clarity.She had anticipated to bark at her immediately when she uttered the last words or even an immediate response which he didn't. Hence, she had to delve back to words that would build stamina to whatever his thought organs were entertaining.GrandLord Raphael Gauthier intentionally kept mute and steadily set his sight on her believing she got more words unspilled. His eyebrows were raised more with his two hands placed across his waist while trying to make sense of where Agathe Lambert was driving.“Hugo?” he somewhat mouthed with his eyes blinking. “Poisoned?” His last words followed with a question. “By who?” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier promptly inquired with a somewhat calmer tone. “When?” he went further in striding towards the path of questions.Questions engrossed in inquiries which was all Grand

    GrandLord Raphael Gauthier hastily mouthed with his eyebrows raised in building annoyance. He kept his sight steadily on Agathe Lambert striving to make meaning to her last statement. He knew she wasn't joking but needed a form of clarity in her speech.Agathe Lambert vividly remembered all that transpired between Grandlord Raphael Gauthier and Hugo and should be the last person to make such statements when the GrandLord is concerned.Agathe Lambert was somewhat confused about what to respond with as her gaze quickly dropped off. She reactively took two steps backward in perplexed thoughts. GrandLord Raphael Gauthier was swift enough to understand his younger step-sister's last action. He positioned his hand in an akimbo posture while still glaring at her.“I left my mansion for Hugo? That betrayer? You're kidding huh?” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier mouthed once more but his voice heightened this time.Still maintaining his body posture, he took one step forward in search of a response f
