"Grandpa's condition isn't as simple as you think!" Lucy exclaimed.Upon hearing Ethan's words, Lucy grew anxious. If it were a regular treatment, Lucy would not have objected. In fact, she would have been delighted. However, his condition was far more complex.Julian's condition was not at all like what Ethan and the others imagined. If Lucy recalled correctly, Liam had indicated that the life-threatening factor for Julian was poisoning. Although the toxins had been purged, allowing an uninformed doctor to intervene recklessly would only escalate the danger.Travis scoffed. "Not simple? Indeed, it isn't. Doctor Nashman has just assessed, and now the old man's condition seems stable. I believe it was this young lad you brought in who delayed Grandpa's treatment, causing him to go into a coma!"Lucy's face flushed with anger. "You all knew how critical Grandpa's condition was then! If it weren't for Grandmaster Burrey's skill, how could Grandpa have recovered as he has?"Travis s
Travis could not stop smiling. If my old man can wake up that quickly, you'll be the Hill family's savior. We'll make sure to repay you properly!"Travis then turned to face Lucy with a sneer. "Did you hear that? It's all because you brought in that useless Grandmaster Burrey that delayed things. Otherwise, Doctor Nashman would have definitely cured Grandpa's illness much earlier!"Lucy was angry. "You..."However, Travis did not pay attention to Lucy's reaction. He turned to the other members of the Hill family and said, "It's by luck that we came here today. Otherwise, who knows how Lucy would've tormented my old man. By then, we might not even have the chance to regret it!"Ethan, standing at the back, let out a heavy sigh.When Travis and the others came to find Lucy, he still supported his daughter. However, regardless of what the members of the Hill family said, Liam remained calm, standing at the back.The reason he also let the so-called 'Doctor Nashman' continue with the
Julian, who had only shown slight movement in his eyes, began to tremble.The sight filled Travis with excitement as he enthusiastically exclaimed, "Doctor Nashman, your method is truly remarkable! My dad is starting to react now. Is he about to regain consciousness? Should we increase the power of the machines?"Seeing signs that Julian was about to awaken, Travis was impatient. However, despite his words, Harold remained silent.Watching Julian lying on the hospital bed, Harold gradually frowned. Julian's response to stimulation was a good sign, but the extent of the reaction caught Harold off guard. Julian's response indicated a highly active brain, but the electrical stimulation administered earlier was far from reaching that extent.Harold was puzzled. "Could it be that Mister Hill Senior was already on the brink of consciousness?"However, before Harold could begin to reexamine Julian's condition, he suddenly noticed that Julian's trembling was escalating rapidly, to the
Travis did not know what to do.Both Harold and the Hill family were panicked. They simply could not comprehend how the situation had suddenly deteriorated to such an extent.Soon enough, the nurses rushed into the room with various emergency equipment. Travis anxiously urged, "Doctor Nashman, the nurses and emergency equipment are here! You must save my dad! I beg you!"However, Harold hesitated when the nurses handed the adrenaline to him. He had no idea what to do. In his understanding, a mental spasm was fundamentally irreversible! The Hill family became even more nervous."Doctor Nashman?""Grandmaster Burrey, what's going on?"Lucy stood at the back, her face filled with anxiety as she looked at Liam. Julian's state was truly terrifying.Unlike the others, Liam remained calm.He stepped toward the hospital bed and said, "Don't worry. I already told you, using this method might have consequences you can't handle."Travis looked at Liam fiercely. "It's because of you!
A flash of annoyance crossed Harold's face. However, he seemed to reconsider something, hastily shutting his mouth and stepping aside for Liam.Harold held up his hands. "You all heard that. He asked me to step aside. If anything happens to Mister Hill Senior, it's not my responsibility!"Harold was unsure how to deal with Julian's condition, but Liam unexpectedly took the blame himself, so why not let him?"What an idiot," Harold muttered, looking at Liam as if he was a fool.Meanwhile, Lucy tensed up, her hands clenched tightly together. She did not doubt Liam's medical skills, but Julian's condition looked truly dangerous.Lucy trembled as she asked, "Grandmaster Burrey, do you need us to leave?"She still remembered Liam once saying that he did not like having people around when he was treating someone. However, Liam shook his head. He looked at Julian and calmly replied to Lucy, "No need. This time, it's not exactly treatment."Harold sneered. "Not exactly treatment? You'
However, the shock they were in had far from subsided.Even after the tremors in Julian's body had lessened, Liam did not cease his movements. He raised his fingers from Julian's forehead, his eyes narrowing slightly.Liam once again formed a sword with two fingers, pointing toward Julian's abdomen as he lightly pressed three inches below the navel.However, he seemed remarkably gentle compared to the first time. It even made one doubt whether those two fingers had actually touched Julian's abdomen.Although Liam's actions were delicate, a muffled sound rang out when he touched Julian.The entire room seemed to shake suddenly.An inexplicable shock, centered around Liam, suddenly spread outward.Lucy's eyes widened. "What's happening?!"The sudden anomaly startled Travis even more. "What's going on?!"The unexpected situation made Travis wonder if he was hallucinating.Everyone, including the members of the Hill family, glared at Liam with wide eyes.However, no one noticed
Travis trembled, staring blankly ahead. "Did my dad really recover?"The intense shock made him momentarily forget the pain from being slapped. It was not just Travis, but Harold was also filled with horror. He could not imagine someone being able to control neurological spasms in an unconscious state, let alone without using any medical equipment.Just with two fingers! It was beyond what Harold could comprehend. The huge room fell into a dead silence. All eyes were fixed on Liam in the center of the room. "I might have misjudged at the beginning. There may be some issues with his condition. Otherwise, it'd be impossible for him to recover so quickly." Harold simply could not believe that someone in their world had such an ability. His two fingers could calm the spasms of someone in an unconscious state.Harold continued explaining, "Mister Hill Senior's condition has stabilized, but after experiencing such an ordeal, it may not be easy to make him fully conscious again.
Upon witnessing the scene before them, Lucy, standing with a water pitcher on the side, was suddenly dumbfounded. It was not just Lucy. Everyone from the Hill family, including Travis, froze in place. The way it appeared, Liam was indeed the revered Grandmaster Burrey. Moreover, the attitude seemed just as respectful. Travis's heart was suddenly filled with a sense of foreboding.Lucy hurriedly offered Julian the cup of water. "Grandpa, have some water first!"Though Julian had been unconscious for several days and had just recovered from a serious illness, he could manage some simple movements after experiencing the discomfort of awakening. However, he paid no attention to Lucy whatsoever. In fact, since Julian had regained consciousness, he had not paid any attention to anyone from the Hill family.Suddenly, Julian seemed to realize something as he lay in bed. His body stiffened, and he looked up in panic at Liam."Grandmaster Burrey, is it because of me that you've broken
"I didn't expect that I hadn't found you yet, and you came right to my doorstep!"Speak! What is your purpose for following behind Elsa and the others and coming to my Nosh family's banquet?"He stared at Liam, his eyes gleaming with a chilling light.As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Nosh family in Juneau, Andy was no pampered, unskilled rich second generation. He was very intelligent!Andy clearly knew that following behind Elsa and the others without being noticed, and even sneaking into the villa without alarming security, was no ordinary feat.All of this was not something just anyone could accomplish!Therefore, when facing Liam, he did not act rashly.However, Andy was quite clever, but there were always those at the scene who did not understand the situation."I didn't expect this b*stard to dare follow us the whole way!" Michael suddenly reached out, pointing at Liam while speaking harshly, "And you still dare tell Mister Andy Nosh that we brought you here!"We
He noticed this scene.Andy's expression suddenly darkened, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.This villa was his private residence.Although it had been provided for the evening banquet, most of the villa contained Andy's personal belongings, especially on the second floor, where his bedroom was.If it were not for today's public display, Andy would never have allowed someone like Elsa to go up to the second floor of the villa!And now, someone actually dared to step onto the second floor of the villa without his permission!They were really courting death!"Who allowed you to go up there?"Andy's face was gloomy, and his voice was icy cold."Do I need your permission to go up there?"Liam looked down from a higher vantage point, answering淡ly."Do you dare speak to me like that?"As soon as Andy heard Liam's words, his expression changed dramatically.As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Nosh family, one of the most influential families in Juneau, the future
Elsa lifted her head and looked at Andy."I didn't mean that."Upon hearing this, Andy shook his head.He squinted as he examined Elsa, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.The fearful attitude that Elsa and Michael showed in front of him made Andy feel quite proud. This situation proved that he held supreme authority in their hearts.As long as this was the case, it meant he could easily control the Link family!However, controlling subordinates required more than just authority. It needed a balance of both favor and power!Only then could he leave a deep impression on the other guests at this banquet!"What I meant was, since you're unwell, you should get more rest."Andy's tone changed, and he smiled warmly, speaking in a friendly manner."As for the matter this time, I've understood it, and of course, you're not to blame.""Thank you, Mister Nosh!"Hearing Andy's words, Elsa's face lit up with surprise, and she repeatedly bowed to thank him."No need to thank m
"Don't say it's some kind of accident."Andy completely ignored Michael, once again disgustedly waving his hand at Elsa, who was still nearby. He wrinkled his nose at the faint smell of urine floating in the air. "Get away from me.""Eh! Alright, alright!"Elsa quickly nodded, retreating another step.Michael closely followed her, a forced smile on his face.In front of Andy, they did not dare show any of the unreasonableness they had displayed earlier when facing Liam!"Who would wear something like this to Mister Andy Nosh's banquet?""Not just the clothes, didn't you smell that urine odor coming from her?""I remember, they're from the Link family, the ones collaborating with Mister Andy Nosh on that cosmetics brand, right? This is just hilarious!"…Hearing this, other guests at the banquet could not help but burst into mocking laughter."That damn scoundrel, making me lose face like this. Once I get out of Mister Andy Nosh's house, I'm going to find him!"Hearing the v
It was precisely because of this series of reasons that, to avoid unnecessary trouble, they decided not to drive to the dinner. That's how they happened to run into Liam.One could say that a series of coincidences aligned to create the situation that unfolded today.Not far from the scene, the woman and the man turned a corner and entered a secluded villa area. Following the narrow path inside, they arrived at a mansion guarded by security, a lavish estate."We are here to attend Mister Andy Nosh's dinner."They quickly handed the invitation, which they had been holding, to the security at the door.This mansion was one of Andy's properties."Elsa Loony, Michael Link?"The security guard took the invitation and looked suspiciously at the man and woman standing before him."Yes, it's us! It's us!"The woman, Elsa, quickly nodded.Upon hearing this, the security guard squinted and gave Elsa a once-over, his eyes briefly flashing over her tattered clothing.Elsa smiled awkward
"We've been preparing for so long, just for this banquet hosted by Mister Andy Nosh!"The woman cried with a long face and said, "Now that it's come to this, if we go to the banquet, aren't we just going to embarrass ourselves?""Umm..."Hearing this, the man turned around, looking at the woman whose clothes were torn into shreds, emitting a foul smell of urine, and was momentarily stunned.Forget about the woman's feelings. Even the man himself felt that his mother was somewhat embarrassing at the moment."We should hurry back and let me take a bath and change clothes!"The woman stopped in her tracks and anxiously spoke to the man."Mom, there's no time!" Hearing this, the man lowered his head and glanced at the time. A troubled expression crossed his face. "You know, Mister Andy Nosh can't stand people being late!""We'll explain it to him, he'll definitely understand." He lifted his head to look at the woman.This banquet was truly important to them; otherwise, they would
Seeing this, the man whispered, "Also, the paramedics said that if we don't cut open your clothes, you might really lose your life..."Hearing the man's words, the woman's face immediately turned pale!"I..."She glanced at Liam, then turned to look at the other paramedics nearby, opening her mouth but unable to say a word.This time, the woman, having understood the situation, looked as if she had lost everything.There was no longer the slightest hint of the arrogance and insolence she had shown earlier!"Now that you've woken up, are you going to the hospital with us or not?"Looking at the woman, the paramedic continued with his previous question."If we don't go to the hospital, will my mom suddenly have another episode?"The man spoke up."After the epilepsy situation stabilizes, it should be fine for now. Actually, if your mom hadn't acted rashly earlier, it should've been okay," the paramedic glanced at the man and said, "But the condition still exists, and further tr
Whizz—The moment the man replied, the emergency responders immediately used medical safety scissors to cut open the woman's clothes.Unlike Liam, they were not careful about the expensive clothing. Under their hands, it quickly became nothing more than tattered cloth barely covering her body.However, the man stood quietly by the side, not uttering a word.He knew very well that if he said anything that could delay the treatment now, he would probably be signing his own death warrant!The emergency treatment continued for a while, with a few minor accidents along the way.But in the end, the result was relatively good."Phew…"The emergency responder who had spoken earlier let out a long breath and stood up."It's done. The patient's condition is stable."He turned and looked at the man standing beside him."Stable…"Hearing this, the man paused, then looked down at the woman lying on the ground and opened his mouth. "But my mom... why hasn't she woken up yet?"Not just no
"Be careful?"The woman sneered and reached out to pull the Harvest Union Golden Needles from her abdomen. "This worthless thing? What do I need to be careful of?"If you want it, take it back!"The woman had her own malicious intentions. With force, she hurled the Harvest Union Golden Needles toward the opposite direction of the road!If it had been any other needle, thrown so recklessly onto a wide road, it would likely have been impossible to find.Fortunately, the Harvest Union Golden Needles transformed into a subtle golden streak mid-air and flew directly into Liam's hand.However, this phenomenon was so subtle that no one noticed."What now? I've already returned your useless needle!"The woman then raised her head arrogantly, her expression filled with contempt. "What could possibly happen to me?""Such theatrics!"The man standing next to her sneered as well. "I thought you actually had some real skills…"But then—Thud!Before he could finish his sentence, a muff
