Curtis' face and neck flushed all over and he took in a deep breath, as he heard Adam's statement. He couldn't believe that his actions would come back and bite him in the butt, and he internally berated himself for uttering those words to Adam, he had arrogantly thought he was right and had spoken so carelessly. Now those very words were back to haunt and hunt him down, From where he stood, Adrien could see the various emotions that passed across Curtis' face and he smiled to himself, the bastard deserved the comeuppance that was coming to him. Wanting to add salt to the injury, he exclaimed loudly, “We don't have all day Curtis, people have their meals to get back to, and your delay is delaying them as well" and he winked right after his speech, Adrien ached to stick his tongue out for good effect but decided to take the mature route. Curtis' face and neck couldn't get any redder than they already were, it was already as red as cherry, anything further than that, Adrien felt the f
"What?!” Adrien's loud voice reverberated through the room, his voice was so loud that it got a few people cowering, Curtis inclusive who immediately lowered his head, Adam couldn't believe his ears and he sought to understand Curtis better, he raised his head slightly to look at Curtis, his forehead creasing as he did, before glancing at Adrien, he raised his eyebrow at him, who shrugged in return. “What do you mean by, you do not have it?” he queried, his voice laced with anger Still on his knees, Curtis became fidgety as he swallowed the lump in his throat, he had dug his grave with his own hands, Amber couldn't stay still as she kept shuffling on her feet, time was of the essence where her father's health was concerned, Glancing over at Curtis, her face reddened as her eyes saw him, it was all because of him she was in this agitation mess, if he hadn't messed with Mr Adam, she and Mr Adam would have been headed over to her father right this minute, 'I ought to show him
After the restaurant squabble and ignoring both women, Amber and Adam arrived at Rowland's Mansion, it looked like a castle in a fairytale and was a beautiful sight to behold. Coming over, Amber had made her driver drive faster than normal, a journey that would usually take about thirty minutes, took about fifteen to twenty minutes. As far as Amber was concerned, time wasn't on their hand so Amber tried racing against time. She quickly led Adam into the main building and straight to her father's room, where an almost lifeless man was lying on the bed, He was pale and hooked to different machines and tubes, there was a constant beeping sound in the room, getting closer Adam could tell that the man struggled to breathe despite the machines he was connected to, the man really didn't look good and was on the brink of death. Two other people were in the room but Amber and Adam took no notice of them at all as they rushed into the room, “Amber, thank goodness You're back" A young ma
The tension in the room was palpable as everyone listened to Adam. Dr Carl took in a deep breath that was audible as he let out a gasp, he slowly and forcefully expelled the breath, and his eyebrows drew close as his brain processed what Adam had said, His lips pulled back in disgust as he straightened himself and advanced towards Adam, his muscles were visibly tightened as he moved. In all of his years and career, nobody had dared to challenge him in this manner, Him? The great and famous Dr Carl, he who was a consultant at other famous and acclaimed hospitals, yet a fellow who had never seen the four walls of medical school had the impertinence to challenge him! “If you're able to do the impossible, I will revoke my license and will declare to the world that I have met someone who surpasses me in the medical field, in fact, my phone is with my assistant, if you're able to prove me wrong, he would open my social account and announce on all platforms that I Doctor Carlos Orlof has m
“His blood has been infected with an untraceable substance, hence that's why he's this way" Amber and Brandon's eyes widened as their skin paled, Brandon couldn't help but gasp at the utterance, “W-what the hell are you talking about?!” Adam paid no attention to Brandon's question, he turned to face Amber and doled out a few requests, “I would be needing a little turmeric, cinnamon, and lemon rind. I would also be needing an Azure Aloe oil, as well as some hot stones, get all of those things as soon as you can” Amber readily nodded her head and turned to instruct one of her bodyguards to get the required items, she couldn't trust her brother to do them or get the items correctly. “Delay any further and lose your job and your life" She called out to the bodyguard as he stepped out the door, hearing her threat the guy hastened his steps, A few minutes later, he came back cradling the aforementioned items and gingerly handed them over to Amber, who walked to where Adam was and pla
Seeing his assistant's countenance, Dr Carl's eyes followed the direction of his assistant eyes, and he instantly paled and his eyes widened. His jaws were almost dropping to the ground, while he had his hand over his mouth. This was unbelievable, and unfathomable at the same time not only was Mr Mason no longer pale looking on the bed, but his body was moving a little and his breathing was getting to normal, this was unexpected, for someone who they had written off as dead a few moments ago, it seemed he was coming back to life, “This can't be, maybe it's just the body trying to prepare for death" he tried to console himself beneath his breath, How could something as insignificant as a few herbs and all, have the ability to bring an almost dead person back to life? He shook his head to clear it, it was unbelievable and not medically possible therefore he refused to see what was before him and so he kept his thoughts and words to himself, hoping for the worst. “What’s happening?!”
Amber smiled slowly seeing her father regain consciousness, and with trembling hands, she covered her opened mouth with the free hand as tears seeped out of her eyes, Brandon heaved a sigh of relief and sagged his body against that of his sister as he watched his father come out of his previous state. “He's awake" “Oh my gosh, it's a miracle" “I cannot believe my eyes" A few of the bodyguards began to exclaim, their eyes bulging and their mouths wide open, blinking rapidly as they watched everything unfold, it was like a scene out of a movie for them all. Amber couldn't stop the tears that flowed freely from her eyes, turning towards Adam she smiled in relief, the smile reaching her eyes as she bowed to Adam, “Mr Adam, I'm thoroughly grateful. I do not know how to thank you, Sir" Adam’s cheeks flushed slightly while he nodded his head at her and smiled genuinely, clearing his throat he informed her, “I would prescribe some other herbs for you to administer to him, majority of t
While Adam had been at the Rowland Mansion saving a life, a total number of about fifteen men were in an enclosed room planning to end his own life, These people were the ones who had employed the men Adam had killed and injured while he was trying to rescue his daughter. “What do we know about this fellow and how are we going to stop his reign before he becomes more or less like a virus and interferes with our plans" One of the men Travis Lee raged, Adam's attack on their warehouse had cost each and every one of them a great loss and none of them was finding it funny, “We still do not know much about this fellow, but one thing we can clearly see is that he's a man with extraordinary strength, he alone was able to wipe out most of our able-bodied men in that location!” A few people nodded their heads in agreement, they had watched the video a couple of times and seen how fearless and dauntless Adam had been in the face of danger. Adam had even given them a parting gift by looking
