Severin picked up the phone, looked at the caller ID, and saw that Sheila was the one calling him. He could not help but frown because she was an unusually difficult girl to deal with. Unfortunately, ignoring her call would be unwise because she was the daughter of Brookbourn Mansion's leader.After putting some more thought into it, Severin accepted the call with some reluctance. "Hello, Sheila. Is something the matter?" he asked as soon as the call connected."My handsome Severin! Please come as soon as you can! My dad just vomited blood this afternoon, and now he's unconscious on the bed! I don't know what to do right now!" Sheila's voice sounded helpless over the phone and she was already choking up.Severin frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "But, when I went there this morning, your father kicked me out and accused me of being a quack with no medical ethics. If I'm honest, I have no intention of treating people who make such remarks about my ability!"Sheila w

"Let's head on in then!" Severin felt a headache coming on when he looked at the lovestruck little girl in front of him, so he walked briskly into the house and left Sheila following right behind him.Before long, they arrived at the door of Zachariah's room, but Severin stopped outside the door just as they were about to enter. He motioned for Sheila to stop and keep quiet too.There was a discussion going on inside the room, and the people inside comprised the Ballards' relatives who lived at Zachariah's home.One of the men could not help but say, "Do you think the head of our family is going to die like this? He hasn't woken up yet, and judging from his complexion, his life is probably in grave danger!""Sheila went downstairs to pick Severin up, and I wonder if that guy is even able to cure his illness. This is just too strange. He was fine earlier this morning, but then he vomited blood and passed out all of a sudden!" a woman said.The man sighed. "I don't know what's going

At that moment, the door opened and Severin walked in with Sheila. She looked calmly at Sean and Darcy, who felt a little guilty when she stared at him.Sean thought for a while and said to Severin, "Mister Severin, you need to save the head of our family. He vomited blood all of a sudden this afternoon and passed out soon after! He hasn't woken up since then. I wanted to get someone to send him to the hospital, but Sheila says that you can save him because you're aware of his condition!"Severin smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry. He'll live through this now that I'm here!""That's…that's great." Sean froze for a moment and forced a smile, but there was an imperceptible look of disappointment in his eyes.Severin took out a small box, placed it to one side, and took out several silver needles as he turned to Sean and Darcy. "You may excuse yourselves. Sheila can stay here and keep watch. Mister Zachariah will wake up soon, and all you need to do is wait downstairs!""Is that s

Severin was speechless for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Sheila truly was a master at taking advantage of the situation!Zachariah frowned, and it was evident that he had been put in a tight spot by Sheila's proposal. Judging from how Zachariah reacted, Severin knew that the man still did not think too highly of him, but he was nonetheless quite happy that the other party looked down on him because he had always intended to keep a proper distance from Sheila. He immediately smiled and said, "I can't accept that either. Please don't be silly, Miss Sheila! You're Mister Zachariah's treasured daughter, and it'll be a big loss for the Ballards if you marry me!"As he spoke, he removed the silver needles one by one and changed the subject without giving Sheila a chance to interrupt. "Like I said earlier this morning, you were poisoned. There was an obscene amount of poison in the mouthful of black blood that you spat out earlier. What I did was force your bo

After Zachariah heard that, he could not help but laugh and say, "I'm a bit of a snob. I like to judge everything by its value in money because I've always felt that people tend to do things only for money. Individuals like you are a rare gem, Mister Severin!"Sheila then said to Zachariah, "Dad, when we entered, we heard Sean and Darcy talking about—"Before Sheila could finish speaking, Zachariah stretched out his hand to tell her to stop and interrupted her, "Say no more. I might be unconscious, earlier, but I still heard what those ungrateful people said about me. They are utterly despicable! I really didn't expect that they'd plot to kill me and you for the sake of money!" After he finished speaking, he clenched his fist and said, "I'll go down soon and tell them to scram. I want them to leave here with nothing but the clothes on their backs. I'll have their bank accounts and all credit cards frozen, and they'll have to leave the company too."Zachariah became angrier the more

"Zachariah! It's good to see you back in the pink of health! Everyone is worried about you!" Darcy also walked over and smiled with concern.Zachariah sneered in his heart. Had he not overheard the conversation between the two when he was unconscious, he would have thought the two of them were good-hearted relatives. His face darkened and he snorted coldly, "Bodyguards, please!"A group of bodyguards then rushed in from outside.Zachariah immediately said, "Did you think I wouldn't hear what the two of you said earlier? You were hoping to see me die so you could divide my assets among yourselves, and you even said that you'd cause an accident to kill my daughter. I might be unconscious and unable to open my eyes, but I heard every single thing you said!" After ending his sentence, he took a step forward and glared at the other party as he said, "I have never treated you unfairly, so it brings me great disappointment when I found out how ungrateful the two of you are.""Seriously?

Zachariah felt emotional as he looked at the family-less old man who had devoted more than thirty years of his young life to the Ballards. "Worry not. I'm fine. Mister Severin said that I was poisoned, and most of the poison in my body had been forced out. He'll give me an herbal prescription for us in a bit, and I just need to boil the herbs into a drink!"The old butler breathed a sigh of relief and said to Severin, "Thank you, Mister Severin!"Severin, who had been secretly paying attention to the servants, smiled at the old butler and said, "You're most welcome. Sheila and I are friends, so it's only right that I help her out!"He then asked someone to take out the paper and pen, wrote down the prescription, and handed it to the old butler so he could arrange for someone to get the necessary herbs."Sir, how could you be poisoned when you've been at home all this time?" The old butler could not help but ask Zachariah as he tried to think of what could possibly cause the poisoni

"I see. It's a slow-acting poison that takes a long time to kick in but is extremely deadly. Have I got that right?" Sheila sighed lamentably. "I didn't expect Lena to be that sort of person. Our family has always treated her very well, and she has worked many years for us."Severin smiled and said, "Lena looks like an honest person, and she wouldn't have understood what she had been doing. She must've placed the incense under someone else's instruction, and now that I've rid you of your poison, Lena will very likely meet the person who told her to do it. We just need to follow her to find out who's the true culprit!"Zachariah gave Severin an enthusiastic thumbs up. "You truly are amazing, Mister Severin. I am fully convinced by your abilities, for you have a perceptive mind in addition to your excellent medical skills. You have my utmost admiration."Sheila finally had a realization. "Now I understand why Lena panicked and had such a frightened look when you yelled at her earlier.
