"The Longs have sent people to arrest you, and they'll be here soon. Hurry up and hide!"Chad was shocked, but he remained composed. He carelessly took a puff from his cigarette."Bring it on! I did not kill him!"However, Ivy panicked. "The Longs don't think so. They—"As she spoke, Justin led a dozen men into the shop and surrounded Chad."You useless piece of shit. I'm surprised you're still alive after deceiving the Harts and the Hawthornes."But you ran out of luck this time. Tie him up!"Immediately, one of the men reached for a rope, intending to bind Chad. However, as soon as that person approached Chad, he collapsed to the ground.No one noticed what Chad had done. Everyone was shocked!"Chad, you'd better do as I say. Otherwise, I'll shoot you!"Justin was brutal. He pointed a gun at Chad's head.He wished he could kill Chad. He found out that Ernest had recovered from his illness when he met Bill that morning.It meant that Justin had hired the European medical t
"He's the loser whom Matilda divorced?""Yes. According to Justin, he deceived the Harts and the Hawthornes, hindering Bellenuite Group's financing.""That's ridiculous! After messing with the two families, he still has the cheek to trick our family. What gave him the arrogance?""What should we do to this man? Why don't we fake a car accident and kill him?"The elders of the Long family, who were in their 80s, talked among themselves about Chad's death. They made no attempt to discover the truth.As for Chad, he had not taken his eyes off Stanley's body since he arrived.Stanley was not dead. The simplest way to prove his innocence was to make Stanley awaken.Chad was not worried about the Long family framing him as they desired.Chad sneered and whispered to Justin, "You are dead this time!"Chad chuckled. He could not be bothered with that asshole.Justin was exasperated. He quietly delivered a hard kick behind Chad's knee.He expected Chad to fall to the ground and kneel
Stanley sat up and began vomiting big, sticky clumps of black and brown. Its stench was revolting.Chad dusted the vomit with powder. Legions of black-colored bugs swarmed out of the pile soon after.Those bugs made a buzzing sound.The Long family's elders were knowledgeable. One of them immediately exclaimed."Those are intestinal parasites. Don't panic, everyone. Stanley was poisoned with an intestinal parasite. He was not dead!"Frederick Long was the elder who identified the intestinal parasites. He was a minister in the South when he was younger. He had heard of witchcraft practices involving intestinal parasites.Frederick realized Chad was not as useless as Justin claimed.He took a fearful step forward and bowed to Chad."Thank you, Dr. Jennings. Where are you from, Dr. Jennings?"Chad remained silent. He turned to Tiffany, who was lying on the ground, struggling with the pain in her leg.She screamed in horror."Grandpa Frederick, don't let him trick you! He's a co
A loud roar erupted in the plaza. People were collapsing to the ground.Someone laughed. "What a show. I was hoping there'd be more!""What's going on with me?""I'm so tired! I need to sleep!"At the plaza, the Long family members dozed off on the ground.Everyone there had collapsed in a matter of seconds.Frederick realized right away that everyone had been secretly attacked by intestinal parasites. He, too, collapsed to the ground after yelling."Oh, no. Everybody, move out!""What's happening?"Justin collapsed before he could even struggle.Eventually, only a few people were left standing in the plaza—Chad, Stanley, Tiffany, and a dashing middle-aged man with a slim build.As he made his way to Tiffany, the man's gloomy gaze was fixed on Stanley."Sorry! I've caused you to suffer. It's my fault!"Tiffany stumbled backward in fear. She refused to acknowledge that the man in front of her was her biological father.After all, her status as a Long could be advantageous
Immediately, Stanley made a phone call and ordered a batch of sulfur powder.As more people at the manor awoke, they began sprinkling sulfur everywhere.Stanley stood in front of a desk in the study room two hours later.Frederick had just awoken, and he immediately instructed Stanley to inform him of the situation."I only found out today that my daughter and son are not my own—""Yeah, I'm aware of that!"Frederick interrupted Stanley and expressed his opinion."Tiffany doesn't carry the Longs' blood. Cut her off as soon as possible."As for Nathan, he's your uncle's son. You'll have to turn a blind eye to that."Stanley remained silent. It was improper to wash one's dirty linen in public. He still had to keep secrets hidden.Given the circumstances, Stanley had to bear the burden.However, Stanley could not bear it. "I'll do that, but I must divorce Sandra!"Frederick shook his head in frustration when he heard her name."Fine! The elders will agree to it. Plus, we'll g
"Mr. Jennings, please mind your words. I am here on behalf of Mr. Sachs to discuss compensation."I am here to inform you that Mr. Sachs intends to file a lawsuit against you. And he intends to file for both civil and criminal charges!"Sonya was a lawyer. She delivered the message to Chad with a smile on her face.Chad stared at Sonya. He realized she was a beautiful lady, but she was in relatively poor health.Furthermore, her health problem was systemic. It would not have been detected even if she had gone to the hospital for a body checkup.In the modern era, hospital equipment could only detect a disease after the patient's symptoms had manifested.Sonya's condition was unique. It was often referred to as wasting away by the Mystic Healers.It was as if when a human's life was over, the result would be to waste away and die.However, there would not be any symptoms.Chad turned to Sonya and said solemnly, "Firstly, you'll die in three days. I'm telling the truth. Secondly
"We can write to the senior level and have the compensation processed."Certainly, the compensation must be within reason!"The case was rejected, and the courthouse agreed to compensate on behalf of Chad!Sonya found Chad impressive because of that.It was already a privilege that the court did not accept Chad's case. The fact that the courthouse would make the compensation on his behalf was quite appalling.Sonya had handled countless strange cases as a lawyer for several years, but that was her first encounter with something like that.She wondered what Chad's background was that allowed him to have such a privilege.However, Celine did not understand the situation. She went berserk when she found out Chad could not be sued."Get your manager here. What do you mean we can't sue him? Do you know who John Sachs is?"He's my son. He is also the brother of Bloomington's female entrepreneur, Matilda."He was beaten up and is now suing the person who hurt him. What's wrong with
"No longer need to be treated? Have I recovered? Didn't you say that I would be dead in three days?"Sonya pretended to be surprised and mocked Chad. At the same time, she assessed him."You haven't recovered, but you're no longer curable. Please return and prepare for your funeral!"Chad stood up and motioned for Sonya to leave, but she remained motionless.Her logic prevented her from believing Chad, but she had a feeling he was telling the truth.Sonya trusted her instincts. She relied on her intuition as a lawyer over the last few years and won a string of court cases.That was how she rose through the ranks in the legal profession. Sonya was irritated at that point, but she did not leave."I am now your patient, Mr. Jennings. Please do not use this opportunity to avenge your grievance. Instead, do your job as a doctor."Chad glared at her and said, "I'm not a doctor. And you are indeed incurable!"Bang!Sonya was enraged. She slammed her palm on the table and pointed at
