“The effect should start showing now,” Kayson mumbled as he began to train his grip strength.Three people were not able to sleep tonight.One of them was Heirein, who felt itchy all over.Another one was Lindsy, who was chuckling under her blanket. The last one was Kayson, who had accidentally killed Atticus because he couldn’t control his power.Kayson spent the entire night learning how to control his power and did not rest until dawn.At about eight or nine in the morning, Zachary called him for breakfast.Lindsy had put on light makeup, and it made her look even more charming.While walking beside Kayson, she gained a lot of attention from the crowd, and some even threw envious gazes at Kayson.After they finished their breakfast, they headed to the Roselle Lodge. Today, the Roselle Lodge was having an open house party.Of course, all of the guests who came here were influential figures. Zachary was counted as one, and he was greeted respectfully by the man at the door.
The commotion had caused the guests to start gathering around them.Zachary was someone rather famous, so it went without saying that many people could recognize him.But then again, most of the people who came to the Roselle Lodge today were people of consequences.“Isn’t he Zephyr Hamilton, the patriarch of the Hamiltons?”“Is it true that Zachary killed Mr. Hamilton Sr. with his medical skills? Unbelievable!” “It is true. I heard that Zephyr went to look for Zachary’s help when his father fell sick, and then his father passed away the next day.”“Zachary only told Zephyr that the treatment failed and nothing else. Zephyr was furious and threw him out.”“Why have I never heard of this thing before?”“That’s because a bigwig supported Zachary and prevented the event from escalating.”“Besides, that person who supported Zachary came from a big background. The Hamiltons didn’t want to offend that person, so they didn’t go around and tell people about it.”Kayson had good hear
“Hah! What a cocky brat!” Zephyr sneered coldly. “I’ll take Zachary’s life for sure! I’d like to see what you’re going to do to keep this old thing alive!”Kayson turned his head around to look at Zephyr. Just when he was about to do something, Zachary sighed. “Kayson, don’t. Zephyr hasn’t done anything that deserves him to die.”Zephyr was stunned, and he chuckled, “What do you mean by that, Zachary? You make it sound like this kid could do anything to me.”Lindsy chimed in angrily. “Kayson can kill your man in one punch. Try it yourself if you don’t believe it!”“Really? I can’t wait to see that.” Zephyr scoffed and turned around to walk away.Since the master of the lodge had stepped in, everyone lost their interest and began to go away. The middle-aged man who talked to Kayson earlier on walked forward and handed him a name card.“Young man, let’s make friends.”Kayson took over the name card and smiled at him. “Mr. Gently.”“Haha, if you don’t mind, you can call me Uncle
There was still some time left before the auction startedHowever, the master of the lodge, who had not revealed their face before the public, had prepared wine and food to entertain their guests.Kayson had eaten quite a lot of food. Due to the commotion caused by Zephyr, many people were looking at Zachary from time to time.Yorrick had already left. He had come here to invite Zachary to become the medical consultant for his company. Since Zachary rejected his invitation, he had no reason to stay any longer.“Grandpa, try this cake! It’s tasty!” “It’s okay. It’s too sweet for me. You can have it all to yourself.”“Cake needs to be sweet and creamy. If not, it won’t be tasty!” Lindsy said happily as she enjoyed the food here.Kayson was having a good time as well.At that moment, two figures showed up.“Zachary Ewell!” Someone shouted, and his voice sounded familiar.It was Heirein.Zachary frowned slightly. He did not expect Heirein to be so persistent. Even though he d
“That’s not necessary! I can cure him!” shouted Tanner.He would rather die than give Zachary a chance to show that he was better than him!After that, he changed to another treatment method.This time, it showed some effect, and Heirein was no longer itchy.However, it lasted only about 10 seconds, and Heirein began to squirm and twitch violently on the floor again.“Mr. Smith, it’s coming back! It’s coming back again!” Tanner’s expression changed, and he mumbled, “This… This can’t be…”Heirein’s arms were filled with scratches, and blood was oozing out of them. He looked miserable, and the crowd looked at him in fear.Kayson looked at him indifferently and stood as stiff as a ramrod.Lindsy, who was standing next to him, asked, “Kayson, will he be okay?”“Don’t worry,” Kayson said calmly.He knew what he was doing and was not stupid enough to kill Heirein here.“He’s so scary,” commented Lindsy.There was a mixed expression on her face. Since her college days, she had b
No one paid attention to Tanner’s unwarranted shouting. Even if it were part of Kayson and Zachary’s plan, it proved that Tanner was no better than them.Moreover, anyone could tell that Tanner was only making such remarks because he was afraid his reputation would be ruined.“Zachary…”Tanner’s expression was very unpleasant, and he was gnashing his teeth in resentment because he was badly humiliated today!“Just wait and see!”Tanner did not want to endure the mocking glance cast by the others like he was a clown anymore.Hence, he turned around and left in quick strides.Kayson took a glance at Heirein and casually said, “Not leaving with him yet, Mr. Rockwood?”Heirein’s expression changed, and he said anxiously, “I’m not going to feel itchy again, right?”“If you aren’t up to your little tricks, I think you won’t suffer from another attack anymore.”Heirein’s expression was rather unpleasant, and he took a recalcitrant glance at Lindsy soon afterward.Lindsy did not f
”The name of the flower is Augblood Bloom, which is said to be effective in rejuvenating one’s blood. It’s effective in making an older person younger by seven to eight years upon consumption.“The starting bid is $300,000.”As soon as Eira’s voice faded, a middle-aged man who looked a little over 50 years old raised his bidding paddle.“$380,000!”“410,000!” Someone bided.Zachary asked softly, “Are you interested in getting that?”“No.” Kayson shook his head. “I have quite a number of prescriptions that can produce similar effects.”“Ah?” Zachary was astonished. Soon afterward, he said smilingly, “You must give me a prescription later so I can treat myself. I get tired so easily recently.”Kayson chuckled and said, “I’ll write you the prescription later, and you can prepare one for your own consumption.”“I shall accept your kind offer then!”Soon, a business owner won the Augblood Bloom with his highest bid of over $640,000.Afterward, two more tonics were auctioned, but
A middle-aged man with thick brows and large eyes was seated in Room 5, located on the second floor. “Who’s this young man downstairs?”“I’m not really sure. However, he’s sitting next to Zachary, and he seems very close with Zachary’s granddaughter. It’s possible that he’s the boyfriend of Zachary’s granddaughter,” reported the subordinate standing next to him.“Send someone to inform Zachary to yield the item out of respect to me, Howard Rosweld. The Bocca Fruit is of utmost importance to me.”The subordinate turned around in preparation to dispatch the order.Howard called out to him and said, “If he doesn’t give up, tell him that Sir Osborn wants it.”“Yes, sir.”…A steward-looking man made his way to Kayson.Zachary’s expression turned solemn upon hearing the message. Soon afterward, he said, “Please help me reply to Mr. Roswell that we need the Bocca Fruit to save a patient’s life, so we can’t yield.”Upon hearing, the steward said in all seriousness, “Mr. Ewell, Sir Os
