At that moment Damien leaned back slightly, his gaze steady as Mr. Leo’s polished words lingered in the air. Despite the businessman’s smooth denial, Damien’s instincts flared. He knows something, Damien thought, his mind piecing together the subtle tension in Mr.Leo’s tone and posture.“Mr.Leo,” Damien began, his voice calm but deliberate, “if I’m wrong about your access to the herb, then I apologize. But if there’s another reason—perhaps something personal—maybe we can work together instead.”Upon hearing what Damien just said.Mr.Leo’s brows furrowed slightly, his usually composed demeanor slipping for a fraction of a second. “What are you implying?” he asked, his voice still measured but carrying a hint of wariness.However Damien kept his tone neutral. “I’m suggesting that if you need the herb for a reason—like a medical condition—I may be able to help. My focus isn’t just on acquiring the herb but ensuring it’s used to its fullest potential.”At that moment Mr.Leo’s lips presse
The understated miraculous Doctor. Chapter Fifty Three
The hum of the car’s engine was a low, steady rhythm as Serenity and Elvis sat across from one another in the back of the luxurious vehicle. The tinted windows shielded them from the curious stares of passersby as the chauffeur navigated the city streets.Serenity’s sharp eyes remained fixed ahead, her posture regal yet commanding. “The purpose of this visit is clear,” she began, her voice steady and purposeful. “I need to find the person who treated Sophia’s grandfather, even though I have spoken with Sophia about it, and she didn't give me the response I wanted, it would be better to visit the family, knowing they would see reason and give the contact.”Elvis, seated across from her, raised a skeptical eyebrow. At that moment he adjusted his tailored suit, his expression doubtful. “You really believe this person exists?” he asked, his tone polite but edged with incredulity. “We’re talking about an illness even Kyle couldn't handle. How could someone come out of nowhere and suc

Upon hearing what Serenity just said.Elvis Immediately raised an eyebrow. “Alternative methods?”Without wasting any more time She tilted her head slightly, her expression unreadable. “Their phones, their movements—everything can be monitored. If they’ve had contact with him, it will leave a trace and I'm going to get it.”At that moment Elvis frowned, the hint of unease flickering in his eyes. “You’d go that far?”Serenity’s gaze remained fixed on him, unwavering. “This isn’t just about finding a healer,” she said firmly. “It’s about understanding who he is, what he’s capable of, and why he’s remained hidden. If I have to cross a few lines to get those answers or get him to treat me grandfather, then so be it.”At that moment the car grew quiet again, the weight of her words settling over them. Elvis knew better than to argue. Serenity’s determination was unyielding, and once she set her sights on something, there was little anyone could do to stop her.And without being told he kn

The corridor leading to the main hall was filled with an air of anticipation, whispers following the commanding presence of Serenity as she walked with Dr Elvis, and her entourage. Heads turned, eyes filled with awe and respect, but no one dared to meet her gaze directly.Except Damien.He spotted her ahead, her figure unmistakable, flanked by two towering bodyguards. While others instinctively moved aside, bowing their heads or stepping back, Damien didn’t falter. He kept his stride steady, his expression calm, as though he were simply walking toward his next destination.Upon seeing Damien walking forward her direction Serenity sharp eyes caught sight of him, her brows lifting ever so slightly at his indifference.She knew only few men could maintain such composure in her presence, and she wasn’t accustomed to being treated so casually by Damien, after everything he has done she couldn't believe he still has the guts to show his face again.At that moment her lead bodyguard, a tow

Seeing what was happening Serenity watched the scene unfold from a distance, her sharp gaze fixed on Damien. She crossed her arms, her posture exuding quiet confidence, but internally, her thoughts were anything but neutral.“Here we go again,”she mused, her lips pressing into a faint smirk.“Always in the middle of something, always scheming.”She had seen enough of Damien to form her own conclusions. To her, he was nothing more than a cunning opportunist, someone who knew how to manipulate people, and situations to his advantage. The way he had navigated the Ryan's family and collected the exclusive card in the process only fueled her belief that he thrived on clever deceptions.And now, with Mr. Leo standing before him, Serenity couldn't help but scoff inwardly. Without being told she could tell he was up to something again, and from the look of things Mr. Leo is falling into his tricks.At that moment She observed Mr. Leo’s cautious demeanor, the way he seemed to tread lightly a

As the tense atmosphere lingered in the room even more, Dr.Elvis saw this as an opportunity to prove his worth towards serenity.Without wasting any more time he stepped forward, his calm demeanor and sharp eyes giving him an air of quiet authority. He glanced at Serenity, silently aligning himself with her stance, before addressing Sophia’s family directly.“I understand your hesitation,” Dr.Elvis began, his voice measured and deliberate. “You’re protecting someone who has done a great service for your family, and that’s commendable. But think about the opportunities you’re passing up.”Hearing what Dr.Elvis just said.Sophia’s father shifted uncomfortably, his hands clasped tightly in front of him. “Opportunities?” he asked cautiously, his voice betraying his unease.Immediately Elvis nodded. “If you reveal the identity of this mysterious healer, you wouldn’t just be helping Serenity achieve her goals—you’d also be securing a valuable ally for yourselves. With just one call, I w

The room erupted in chaos as Sophia’s grandfather’s face turned ashen, his hand trembling on the head of his cane. “Michael!” he roared, his voice strained yet furious. “How dare you make such a decision on behalf of this family!”However Michael flinched but stood his ground. “Grandfather, I’m only trying to protect us—”“Protect us?” the old man spat, his voice rising. “You’re throwing away everything we stand for! Do you understand what you’re risking, you're a disgrace to this family?”Immediately he pointed at him.“I forbid you to say anymore words.”Seeing the deadly look on his grandfather's face and his words.He understands what it means.And he wouldn't want to cross the line.The strain in his voice echoed through the room, his fury palpable. Suddenly, he doubled over, clutching his chest, his face contorting in pain. At that moment a harsh, wet cough escaped his lips, and to everyone’s horror, flecks of blood stained his hand.“Grandfather!” Sophia said, rushing to
The understated miraculous Doctor. Chapter Fifty Nine
Hearing Mr.Leo's wife's threatening words, Damien didn't say anything but continued walking closer to the boy.However Mr. Leo stood by the door, his arms crossed tightly as he watched Damien approach the bedside. Though his expression was calm, the tension in his shoulders betrayed the storm of doubt and desperation raging inside him.For some reason he was having a second thought, he wasn't sure if Damien could actually save his son. At that moment his gaze flickered to his wife, who sat silently by their son’s side, her eyes red from exhaustion and worry.‘I don’t know if this will work,’ Mr Leo said to himself, His jaw tightened with frustration, he knows full well what his wife would do to him if for some reason something happened to their son now. His voice was low, almost hesitant. ‘But we’ve tried everything else. We’ve seen some of the best doctor's, and none of them could even give us answers, it wouldn't be bad to try at least in this situation we have nothing to lose.

Chapter Hundred and Nineteen
Damien had just stepped into the lobby, his steps steady and deliberate, his mind already focused on leaving the suffocating atmosphere behind. He gripped the jar of herbs tightly, a reminder of why he wouldn’t let himself be dragged into London’s game.Suddenly, the door to the VIP room swung open behind him with a loud thud, drawing the attention of patrons scattered across the lobby. London stormed out, his face twisted with irritation, flanked by the restaurant manager and several security guards. Their hurried steps echoed off the polished, and before Damien could fully process the commotion, London’s sharp voice rang out.“Stop that man!” London barked, pointing at Damien like an emperor issuing an order. “Don’t let him leave!”The security guards moved swiftly, forming a line that blocked Damien’s path. Their expressions were professional but firm, and it was clear they had no intention of letting him go. Immediately Damien halted, standing tall and calm, though the tensio

Damien crossed his arms, his expression unwavering as he stared down London’s smug facade. The tension between them was palpable, thick enough to cut through. London’s arrogance was grating, but Damien had no intention of caving in to his demands or his schemes.“Think about it,” London sneered, leaning forward with a condescending grin. “I’m giving you an easy way out here, Damien. Just pay for the damn artifact, and this whole mess goes away. You’re lucky I’m even giving you this opportunity.”Damien chuckled, the sound dry and humorless. “Think about it?” he repeated mockingly, shaking his head. “There’s nothing to think about, London. I’m not paying a single dime for something I didn’t break. End of discussion.”Immediately London’s grin faltered for a moment before his arrogance returned in full force. “Who do you think you are?” he demanded, his voice laced with disdain. “You’re acting like you’re untouchable, like you’re above all this. Let me remind you, Damien, you’re sta
Chapter Hundred and Seventeen
At that moment Damien folded his arms, his jaw tightening as he fixed his unyielding gaze on the manager and London. “How sure are you,” he said evenly, his tone laced with quiet authority, “that I was the one who destroyed the artifact? Are you relying solely on his word?” He gestured toward London without breaking eye contact with the manager.Immediately the manager's face hardened, and he puffed up his chest as though trying to assert his authority. “Mr. London is a valued VIP cardholder in this establishment. He has no reason to lie,” the manager snapped. “You are clearly the one who caused this mess, and I suggest you stop playing games and pay immediately before this escalates further.”Damien raised an eyebrow, his calm exterior a sharp contrast to the heated accusations being hurled at him. His thoughts churned, frustration simmering just beneath the surface. He could feel the weight of the trap tightening around him, but he refused to let them see him falter. This was no

At that moment Damien turned back to face London, his patience visibly fraying. He kept his expression calm, but the sharpness in his eyes was unmistakable. “London,”Damien said, his voice steady but cold, “you’re really starting to test my patience. I’m telling you now—stop pushing, or you’ll regret it.”At that moment London smirked, leaning back in his chair with feigned confidence, though there was a flicker of unease in his posture. He tapped his fingers on the table, clearly trying to provoke Damien further.“Regret it? Is that supposed to be a threat?” he sneered. “Because honestly, I don’t see how someone like you could possibly make me regret anything.”Damien didn’t respond. He had already said enough. With a measured sigh, he turned around ready to walk away and end the pointless conversation. But just as he was about to leave, a loud crash echoed through the room.Spinning back around, Damien saw London standing beside the remains of an antique vase, shards of porcelain

Then Damien Seated again.Since Landon wants to talk big he's going to give him a piece of that also.Damien leaned back in his chair, his expression blank as he listened to London’s proposition. The air in the VIP lounge seemed to grow heavier with each word that left London’s mouth, the arrogance practically dripping from his tone.“Look, Damien,” London began, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the edge of the table. “I called you here because I’m a reasonable man. I want to offer you a deal—a clean deal, no strings attached. Name your price.” He leaned forward, his eyes narrowing. “Whatever it is, I’ll pay it. Just walk away from Sophia. I don’t want to see you anywhere near her. No calls, no meetings, nothing. Leave her life entirely, and we’ll both go on our merry way.”At that moment Damien’s lips twitched, a flicker of amusement flashing in his eyes. He couldn’t hold it in any longer. A chuckle escaped him, growing into a full-blown laugh that echoed around the room. Then h

Damien leaned forward, his gaze locked on London as the soft hum of the restaurant buzzed around them. His patience was wearing thin, but his curiosity outweighed his irritation. “Alright, London,” he said firmly, “I’ll ask again. What do you want in exchange for the herbs?”At that moment He braced himself, fully expecting London to demand something petty or vindictive—most likely related to Sophia. Probably wants me to stay away from her, Damien thought. It would be typical of London, a man driven by his insecurities and possessiveness.To Damien’s surprise, London leaned back in his chair, an amused smile creeping across his face. “Nothing,” he said casually, swirling the wine in his glass. “I don’t want anything.”Damien froze, his eyebrows shooting up in disbelief. “You don’t want anything?” he repeated, his tone skeptical. “You’re just willing to hand over the herbs, just like that? Without asking for anything in return?”At that moment London chuckled, clearly enjoying Damien
Chapter Hundred and Thirteen
At that moment Damien paused, his curiosity piqued despite himself. “Yes, I’m looking for that herb,” he admitted cautiously. “Why are you calling me about it, London? What’s your angle?”Immediately London’s voice came through the line with an air of confidence, almost as if he had been waiting for this question. “What if I told you I could help you get it? Not just eventually, but immediately,” he said, his tone laced with an undercurrent calmness.At that moment Damien’s eyebrows furrowed. The proposal caught him off guard. It had taken Serenity, with all her connections, some effort to acquire the herb, and she had only managed to secure it because of her family’s reputation. The idea that London, of all people, could deliver it so effortlessly seemed far-fetched. Still, Damien couldn’t dismiss the possibility entirely. What is he playing at? Damien thought. How could he have access to such a rare herb?Though Damien no longer desperately needed the herb—thanks to Serenity—his mi

At that moment Damien's fingers hovered over the steering wheel as his phone buzzed incessantly, the familiar number flashing on the screen. Immediately He clenched his jaw, his mind racing back to the unpleasant memories tied to that name—London. Their first encounter at the restaurant had left a bitter taste in Damien’s mouth, followed by that late-night call filled with hollow threats over Sophia. He had no patience for this man, no desire to hear whatever excuse or venom he wanted to spit this time.However The phone continued ringing, loud and persistent. Damien stared at it, his lips pressed into a thin line. ‘Not now. Not ever,’ he thought. With a deliberate motion, he reached over and silenced the call. The buzzing ceased, and the car fell into silence once more, save for the low hum of the engine.Then he exhaled deeply, gripping the wheel tighter as he focused back on the road. But his resolve was tested again when the phone lit up for the second time, the same number gla

Damien leaned back in his chair, his tone laced with reluctant acceptance. “Alright, Sophia. I’ll think about it.”Sophia, not one to let her guard down, immediately followed up. “Don’t just think about it, Damien. You need to let me know soon. The dinner is tomorrow evening, and my grandfather is really looking forward to seeing you.”At that moment Damien exhaled deeply, his reluctance obvious. “Fine. Don’t worry. I’ll think about it and give you an answer soon. But don’t expect miracles.”However Sophia, sensing she had gotten as much commitment as she was going to get from Damien, let out a small sigh of relief. “Thank you. Just… don’t forget, okay?”At that moment the call ended, and Damien tossed his phone onto the desk, rubbing the back of his neck. He didn’t like being cornered into decisions, and this was no exception. Yet, a part of him knew he wouldn’t simply dismiss the request outright, Sophia had been so kind to him. With a grunt, he pushed the thought aside, deciding
