"What do you mean, Dr. Jennings?"Gerard looked at Danton. He seemed fine except for some light injuries. He did not understand what Chad was saying.Chad glanced at Violet and said, "Her action of pulling out those silver needles was equivalent to ending his life."Then, Chad looked at his phone and said confidently, "He will only live for another 15 minutes. You better hurry up."Gerard trembled and begged Chad. "Please, Dr. Jennings, save him. He is my eldest brother's only son."Chad interrupted Gerard. "I can't save him. I'm leaving."Chad strode away after he finished speaking. Gerard knelt on the ground, refusing to rise. He continued to shout at Chad's back."Please, Dr. Jennings. If you agree to save him, I can give you all my assets."However, Chad replied, "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in wealth or anything else."Violet looked at Chad as he walked away. She could not believe her action of pulling out a few silver needles would kill Danton.She also did not under
After cleaning up Danton's remains, Violet asked in confusion, "Mr. Pulmano, where did Dr. Jennings come from?"Gerard crouched slowly and tidied Danton's shirt. Then, he answered, "Dr. Jennings is from the Mystic Pavillion!"Mystic Pavillion!Immediately, Violet froze.Ordinary men might not have heard about the Mystic Pavillion, but Violet did.The Mystic Pavillion was an organization that emerged eight years ago. It was said that the members of the organization were all great doctors.They were said to be able to bring the dead back to life.Violet only knew about the Mystic Pavillion after following Gerard.Before she met Chad, she always thought the Mystic Pavillion was only a myth.She never thought it existed, and Dr. Jennings was one of the members.Violet had to calm herself down after seeing the house full of corpses. "Mr. Pulmano, what should we do to these corpses?""As usual!"Gerard got up on his feet and said calmly.Violet nodded and went out to make a phon
Chad looked at the first light outside the window. Listening to Matilda lashing out over the phone, he said listlessly, "How'd I go against you? Aren't you being too ridiculous now?""You messed up my partnership. How dare you call me the ridiculous one? Chad Jennings, how dare you be so unreasonable?"Matilda fumed as she yelled into the phone.Chad was extremely sleepy and he said impatiently, "You're too innocent. Even without me, the partnership wouldn't go through either."However, those words sounded like Chad was humiliating her on purpose. She shrieked, "Chad Jennings! I'm warning you. There better be no next time. Otherwise, I'd make you pay the price!"Then, she hung up. Chad was so exasperated, that he could not be bothered anymore.He coldly flung his phone onto the table and cursed under his breath, "If it wasn't for my sister being there too, you think I'd save you?"Suddenly, Chad's phone rang again. It was an unknown number. He did not want to answer the call.
Chad grinned. He called out to the man selling breakfast at a roadside stall."Sir, I'd love a bowl of mushroom soup and two pieces of pretzels!"On the other end of the phone, Moris paused for a moment. His face was covered in wrinkles and weary. He let off a self-deprecating scoff and hung up.That morning, many in Bloomington noticed the Drunken Beauty Bar that was initially located downtown got suspended.A sign was put up on the construction wall: [Tatum Supreme's 366th Hypermarket. Opening soon in Bloomington. See you soon!]That was what meant by Gerard the night before. Any place where someone from the Pulmano family member dies, would be acquired by the Tatum Supreme Group and be turned into a hypermarket.Chad who was enjoying his breakfast did not bother with the news. He needed to visit Sonya's father.When he returned to his shop, he even bought breakfast for Sonya.When Chad arrived at the Hall of Herbs, Sonya woke up.Since she took the Life Extension Pill, she
"Dr. Jennings, what do you mean?"Caroline was confused. The past few years after being chased out of the family, Mr. Walt often called them.Mr. Walt would ask about Darren's condition and expressed his frustration.Caroline thought Mr. Walt was still concerned about Darren and that it was the other family members who wanted them out of the house.Chad pointed at the black cat and said, "It wasn't a stroke. Instead, it's Toxoplasmosis!""Toxoplasmosis?"Caroline was shocked. She wondered if the cat had anything to do with the sickness."Toxoplasma parasite is a type of parasite that lives on cats' bodies. It has extremely tiny larvae."But, it could enter a human body to be fertilized via a person's mouth, nose, and wound."Once the larvae reach the brain following blood flow and hatch, the person would have symptoms similar to a stroke."Chad said seriously as he sat by the bed, checking Darren's pulse.Caroline was shocked. Sonya even dropped the black cat to the floor an
A miracle took place. Darren who did not speak for years due to the stroke spoke up!Caroline and Sonya burst into tears. They were in disbelief.Then, Chad took out a scalpel and lightly made an incision at the spot where the needle was inserted.As the incision was made, the end of the needle was taken out.Around the needle, was a tiny white worm. That worm was so tiny it was almost invisible to the naked eye!Chad finally exhaled after seeing the worm."Thankfully, this worm didn't take his life!"Unexpectedly, Darren made a turn on his own.After all, he did not move around for several years. His body was rather weak and he exhausted his energy from just turning his body over.Looking at the near-invisible worm on the needle, Darren was furious."Dad, you've finally recovered!"Sonya saw her father turning his body on his own and burst into tears.For the past few years, Sonya and Caroline suffered immensely.When they saw Darren recover, they thought all of that was
Harry Walt, one of the most popular people in the Walt family from Century City, was the most renowned lawyer in the country.He stood at the door, and behind him was an old man with gray hair dressed in a suit.Before the door was opened, Harry said to the old man respectfully, "Mr. White, please do as we've discussed."Robert White was an acclaimed neurologist."Mr. Walt, don't worry. Live or die, it all depends on the patient!"Harry nodded in relief. The door opened.It was Caroline. "Harry, why are you here?"As they spoke, she let the two of them into the hall. Harry was straightforward."Caroline, I brought Mr. Robert White, a famous neurologist to treat Darren."Caroline glanced at the closed bedroom and said, "He's still resting. Can you wait for a while?"In the bedroom, Darren was indeed resting. At the same time, Chad did dry needling recovery treatment for him.The conversation from the living room could be heard clearly in the bedroom.With his eyes closed,
"Darren, wake up! Darren!"Caroline's cry echoed from the room. Harry and Robert heard and breathed a sigh of relief.After all, none of them wanted to murder even if the subject person was in a vegetative state that was bedridden for years.At the balcony, Sonya held the urge to cry and hid at the balcony with Chad while eavesdropping.Harry and Robert entered the bedroom.Robert did a brief check on Darren and confirmed his death.Harry looked at Darren's body, feeling like a weight was taken off his shoulders. He comforted Caroline. "Caroline, I'm sorry. Please take care!""Harry, it's okay. I've thought about it for a long time. I knew this day would come, sooner or later. It's good that he's gone. It's a relief."Then, she started cleaning up Darren's remains.Harry helped as everyone remained in silence.After changing Darren into a suit, Caroline said, "I'll give Sonya a call and tell her to come home. Darren said he didn't want to be cremated."So we've bought a ce
