After listening to Jennifer's raging words, he gave out an exasperated sigh.
He didn't want to argue anything with her, he just cut off the line.
Jennifer fumed when she saw the call was aborted. She turned to her Mother, “The bastard just cut me off! Can you imagine, Mother?”
Jessica Rodriguez snorted angrily, “Roman needs to be arrested. He had offended us and surely, we must take revenge.”
“Try getting some thugs and get him captured.” She added, gritting her teeth furiously.
Jennifer nodded her head in response, “Sure Mom! I will get it done. Atkinson must have his revenge on Roman.” She sneered.
In a luxurious mansion, people were gathered in one place. Worries were displayed on their faces.
The Lord of the Xander Family was unconscious on the bed. The Xander Family had worries and fear on their faces.
They were anxiously waiting for someone, they felt restless.
One of the Xander family members spoke out in rage. “Where is she? When is she bringing the cure? We've been waiting for the past two hours and nothing is yet to be done.”
“If anything happens to the Lord, I won't take it easy with her. I assure you!” He added, walking to and fro in the room.
Everyone was worried as well. They looked at the Master of the Xander who had turned pale.
While the room was tense, someone ran into the room and announced.
“She is here! Angelique Brown is here!” the person uttered.
The moment Angelique Brown walked into the room, everyone stood up to her.
One of them spewed out angrily, “What makes you come late? You want the Master of the Xander to die. If anything happens to him, you are going to face my wrath.”
“You are to be blamed for all that is going on with the Master! Your company produced a fake drug which caused the Master's sudden illness.”
“If anything happens to the Master, your companies will be liquidated and I'm going to make sure the Brown Family suffers!”
Hearing the angry words of the Xander Family members, Angelique sighed frustratingly.
They wouldn't have been talking to her like this if the Pharmaceutical companies hadn't made mistakes on the drug.
For the sake of the company's reputation, she had to tolerate the insults.
Angelique voiced out, “Everyone, you need to be calm. I'm also trying my best to save the Lord of Xander.”
She continued to say, “Look here, I brought a doctor that could treat the Lord's illness.” She pointed at Roman, putting smiles on her face.
Everyone's gaze turned to the direction she was pointing at. When they glanced at the person, they were disappointed because Roman was young and he wouldn't have had any experience in Medicine.
The first son of the Lord of Xander, Reuben, angrily shouted at her. “Angelique, what do you mean he is the doctor? Don't you see how young and inexperienced he is? I don't believe this, are you trying to get my father killed?”
The other members supported him, “Yes, you are right! Is this how you are going to treat our Master? Don't be ridiculous, Angelique. Could your Doctor know about what's wrong with the Master?”
“I can see you are trying to kill the Master of the Xander Family. Look at how shabby your Doctor looks! Are you sure he isn't a quack Doctor?”
Everyone bursted into laughter as they stared at him in disgust. They all looked at Roman as an inexperienced doctor and wouldn't be able to treat the Old Master of the Xander.
Roman frowned slightly, they didn't know him and now, they are mocking him. He could see how arrogant they were.
Still, he didn't bother to utter anything from his mouth.
Reuben spoke directly at Angelique, “As if we knew you are incompetent. We've called an experienced Doctor and he will be here anytime soon.”
At that moment, the Doctor walked into the room, and Reuben rushed towards him instantly, “Dr. McKenzie, Please save my father! You are our last hope!”
The Doctor known as McKenzie is ranked among the Top 20 doctors in the city.
So everyone believes he is the right person to cure the Lord's illness.
Smiling, he uttered. “You don't have to worry about anything! The Lord of Xander will wake up soon!”
Hearing that, the family members heaved a sigh of relief while Reuben turned to Angelique Brown, “By the time my father wakes up, the Brown's corporation is going to be ruined.”
“You are going to be punished severely, I will never go back on my words!” He added, his tone tinged with fury and wrath.
Angelique cowered in fear, and stuttered, “Mr. Xander, you don't have to do this; Let's settle this amicably. The Lord will be up on his feet very soon!” She implored, “Why don't let Mr Roman gives it a try first?’’
Reuben flared angrily, “What nonsense are you sputtering out of your mouth? How can you suggest that I let your quack doctor treat my father? You really want my father dead, Angelique!”
Angelique was short of words. She didn't understand why they all disagreed to let Roman treat the Lord.
Roman, on the other hand, didn't bother to meddle into their conversation. He walked closer to the bed and inspected the Lord of Xander.
Due to his ability, he was able to identify the type of illness.
“The Lord's illness is not ordinary, and it won't be easy to cure it.” He stated, and all attention turned to him.
Reuben refuted. “What are you doing over there? You are nothing but a quack Doctor. You don't know anything about the illness, so move away!”
The Doctor walked closer to him, and smirked rudely, “What do you know, gentleman? Are you telling me you know what's wrong with the Lord? C'mon, you are just an ordinary doctor, and you wouldn't be able to know what is wrong with him.”
With that, the Doctor pushed him slightly away from the bed and inspected the old man.
He turned to Reuben, and mumbled, “The Lord's sickness can't be cured completely but it has to be maintained through drugs!”
Roman frowned deeply at the doctor, and disagreed, “That isn't true. The illness can be cured but it's not an easy task. It has a cure.”
Doctor McKenzie grabbed him on the collar, and refuted. “Gentleman, you have to keep shut. Do you want to teach me how I'm going to do my job?”
Roman was angry. He pushed the doctor, and reaffirmed. “I'm telling the truth. The Lord's illness can be cured. You just have to trust me!”
Reuben snapped angrily, “Angelique, where have you gotten this man? Can you see how he manhandles the doctor?”
“Please, Mr McKenzie! Can you continue with the treatment? I just want my father to be alive, he doesn't deserve to die now!”
Dr McKenzie nodded his head slightly, and started to inject the Lord.
Roman was terrified and shouted at the doctor, “You are killing the old man! You can't cure him using this.” He turned to Reuben, “You need to stop him! He is killing the old man!” He muttered but no one believed him.
Yet they shouted at him, “You are nothing compared to Dr McKenzie! Do you know who he is? He is one of the Top 20 doctors in our city and you are claiming he doesn't know what he is doing!”
“You really need to be punished for slandering Dr McKenzie! This is an embarrassment to him!”
“If you utter any more words, you are going to be beaten to a pulp!” This time around it was Reuben. He flared him contemptuously.
Noticing how Xander's family had threatened him, Roman decided not to say anything again as he watched the doctor perform his duties.
However, within some minutes, the Lord's face turned pale and his heart rate reduced sharply.
“What's going on, Doctor? Why is the Lord's condition getting worse?"
Roman was the first to notice it, and attracted the attention of others.
Murmurs filled the room instantly, as they all looked panicked.

Everyone was also scared, as murmurs filled the room. “Is the Master going to die? Please Dr McKenzie, save the Lord!”“What is going on, doctor?"“Nothing must happen to the Master!”The room was tense as everybody's hearts were overpowered with anxiety and fear. Dr McKenzie was also confused at this stage, he didn't know what to do . Roman shouted, “Calm down everyone. The Lord will be saved, you don't have to worry. His condition isn't beyond cure!” Everyone glanced at him in a confused manner. Did he really know what he's saying? They tried to ridicule him but he wasn't important at the moment. He felt their gaze on him, so he continued, “The drug injected into the Lord's body reacted as a poison. That causes the changes in the Lord's body and if he isn't treated right now, the old man might die.” Everyone exclaimed, “Poiso

Chapter 8Upon hearing the words from Reuben, the Doctor suddenly felt agitated. He cowered in fear, he knew what the Xander's family could do. Anything coming out from them, they really mean it. Quickly, he stuttered as he tried to beg for forgiveness. “Please Mr Reuben, I'm sorry for the mistake. It won't happen again, my injection hasn't worked on him. It was Roman who treated the Lord.” He claimed, trying to appease Reuben. Everyone was glaring at him disdainfully, and wondered how he could be shameless to claim what he didn't do. Obviously, his apologies won't work. Reuben shot him a deadly glare and said, “If you've claimed you're not good enough to save the Lord's life, it would be better and okay." He paused, and looked into his eyes sternly, “But you tried to stop Mr Roman from saving the Lord just only to save your dignity. Do you think I will forgive you for that? No!”“Please Mr Xander, accept my apologies! Just use this as a warning to me. It won't repeat itself." Dr.

You don't know what this means to me.” Quickly, she brought out his phone and put a call to her assistant about convening a press conference. It hadn't rang twice when the assistant's voice was heard. "Good day, Miss Brown! I saw your call.”“Yess! Lord of Xander had been cured. I decided to convene a press conference, and a business party afterwards. Can you do that?” Angelique Brown muttered. The assistant's voice hinted with surprise, “Really ma'am! Wow, I'm so happy right now! When will the press conference come up?”" Tomorrow will be fine! Yeah, we should do it tomorrow!” Angelique replied while nudging at Roman for his response. Roman also nodded his head in response. After some minutes of discussing about the conference, Angelique ended the call, and turned to Roman with a broad smile on he

Chapter 10“And who are you to tell me that, Katherine? You're Not the owner of the estate, are you? Why are you disturbing me?” Roman asked coldly. Jennifer's friend, Katherine, was shocked by his countenance. In the past, Roman wasn't quite bold but here he is, talking back at her. She turned to the man in the car, “Can you hear what he is saying? An ordinary person can't be granted access into the estate, right? What the hell is he doing here then?" She asked. The man who had driven them into the estate was a salesman of this estate. He felt nervous as he saw how cheap Roman's clothes are. He responded, “With the cheap clothes he has on, I'm sure he is not a resident of this estate” A sly smirk appeared on her face, “What? You aren't a resident, so what are you doing here, Roman? Don't tell me you are here begging for shelter or food!” She muttered. “, you aren't supposed to be in here, don't tell me you lure your way into the estate. Are you trying to steal from someone?”“T

Chapter 11The onlookers stared at Roman in disgust, they called him some names that aren't honorary. He was labeled as a thief, a Liar, a Pauper and all sorts of. Roman couldn't help but get angry at those words. He clenched his fist angrily, and tried to suppress the anger he felt at the moment. He is intolerant to insults. He won't let them go scot free. He's surely going to make them regret their actions. He watched them keenly, and continued to tolerate the insults and humiliations. His expression had turned stoic, and he was glaring at the onlookers, especially Katherine and the salesman maliciously. Among the bystanders, an old woman and her husband were glaring at Roman contemptuously. “Can you imagine the nonsense he is sputtering out of his mouth?" The Old woman said disparagingly to her husband who stood beside her. “Right? I'm stupefied that he owned the No. 1 Villa! Did he know how much the house was worth? He had claimed the Villa shamelessly. He really needs to be

Are you claiming he is the owner of the No. 1 Villa? How possible is that? He is a live-in son-in-law, and was married to my friend.” “How can he afford a Mansion worth over 150 million? I don't believe that, you should check the profile thoroughly, there might be a mistake!” Katherine added while staring at Roman with contempt. The Administrator shot a dangerous glance at the lady. She made him look like he was lying. “What do you mean there might be mistakes? I've been working for the company for the past ten years, and there's nothing like that. You should apologize to Mr Cooper for the humiliations!” The Administrator muttered. The Old woman chimed in furiously, “Why should we apolo

I mean, do you all agree with the woman? You have to get on your knees and apologize to me!” Without any hesitation, everybody nodded their heads in agreement. They really want to know the end of this matter. “Okay then, Let's move to the No. 1 Villa!" He said smugly, and turned to the Administrator, "The matter is about getting solved. You don't have to call the Head Office! I will sort this out myself!” The Administrator nodded his head, and replied. “Once again, I'm sorry about the humiliations you passed through in the hands of your neighbors. They don't really know who you are. I apologize on their behalf, sir!” He bowed his head as he pleaded with him. Roman smiled sheepishly, and looked up at t

I heard most of the houses in the Grand Pavilion don't have a private swimming pool, why is this mansion different?” She muttered in confusion, and had a glance at the swimming pool. Funny enough, it was a real swimming pool. Roman closed the gates and smiled smugly, "Yeah, because it's the expensive building in Grand Pavilion Estate. You expect it to be expensive, and have no difference from the other building. C'mon Katherine, you aren't a dullard, are you?" He continued, "There are two pools in this bui

Katherine, who had found her confidence back, spoke with arrogance. "Do you hear that? I heard the man is working in the Public Relations, you can imagine how powerful he might be.” “You don't have worry that, Kate! I will be waiting here for her son!" He turned his gaze to the salesman. “Mr. Salesman, won't you apologize to me? Are you also waiting for the woman's son?” Roman muttered. The salesman snarled at Roman, "I don't ever believe you are the owner of the mansion. I am going to investigate on this matter. I promise, you are going to beg for mercy by the time I found out the truth.” His voice was tinged with fury and rage. He turned to the Administrator, “Can you what he is saying? He wants to know the owner of the No 1 Villa!” He bursted into laughter, and abruptly, his expression changed to that of seriousness. "Why don't you tell him the real owner?

He totally understood what she's talking about but he didn't want to talk about it. “Angelique, you shouldn't talking about this! We are going for a party, remember!" He mumbled, trying to divert away from the conversation. A sly smile flashed across her face, she totally understand Roman's words. Yet, she wasn't going to give up. She continued, “Why did you rejected me? Am I not beautiful enough? Is there something I'm doing that you don't like? Roman, please tell me, what's going on?"
