Cain mentioned that if someone with enough medical skills and talent use the Celestial Herb for research, they might be able to develop the recipe for the Hundred-Cure Elixir.The Hundred-Cure Elixir would purify anyone of all toxins.Only one person had ever successfully created a Hundred-Cure Elixir, and he had disappeared years ago. It was rumored that he had figured out the recipe using the Celestial Herb.Terry suspected Eden had some medical expertise, but he wasn’t sure. However, Cain confirmed that she was not only skilled but exceptionally talented.If Eden was truly a skilled medical practitioner, Terry didn’t want to make her an enemy.That’s why he chose to help Alain.When he spoke to Eden, he tried to drop some blood from his right arm on her, but she simply dodged it, her expression darkening.Terry was sure that Eden had medical skills. However, his actions had offended her greatly. Not only did she want everything the Wheelers owned, but she also demanded his ri
Caelus called the Parkers and drove over right away.Skylar hung up and instructed the household staff to prepare for their guests. He then personally went to the gate.Half an hour later, Caelus’ car arrived outside the Parker residence.Skylar hurried over and respectfully greeted, "Mr. Alain, Ms. Griffith."Alain nodded, but Eden, growing impatient, said coldly, "Take me to see the patient, now.""Of course," Skylar replied, not wasting any time. He immediately led them inside.After a few steps, Eden suddenly stopped and turned to Alain, "All of you should wait for me outside."Alain glanced at her, a meaningful gleam in his eyes. After a moment, he nodded. "Sure.""Mr. Ward, I’ve prepared some tea for you. Please wait for us in the main hall for a little while." Skylar then asked a staff member to escort Alain and Caelus to the main hall, while he personally led Eden to his father’s room.The Parker residence wasn’t built with modernity in mind; it was a classical manor w
Eden gave Lucian a look and slowly said, "His student."Skylar was momentarily stunned, then smiled. "I knew it. Even though he said he’d give up, he never would. He never took in any students, but if he accepted you, he must have taught you everything you know?""I suppose," Eden replied calmly."Good," Lucian said, pulling a small box from under his pillow. "Since you're here, could you please pass this to Noah? I have little time left, and I don’t think I’ll be able to see him again. Tell him this is what Sierra left after he went away."Eden raised an eyebrow. Sierra?That was a woman Lucian had often mentioned."Sierra never stopped searching for him all these years he was gone," Lucian sighed. "She said she’d never go home until she found him. If she never did, she told me to bury this. She would consider her love dead along with it."When Eden remained silent, Lucian added, "You probably didn’t know this, but Sierra is my little sister. She and Noah were in love, but beca
Eden frowned, her expression conflicted.She had taken a close look at Lucian. He had at least five different illnesses, and there was a subtle toxin hidden in his body.It was a type of toxin that was difficult to detect and would remain dormant inside the body for a long time. It appeared that he had been poisoned about forty years ago. All his other symptoms stemmed from this toxin.However, it seemed that Lucian had some immunity to toxins. Eden wondered if he had taken a Hundred-Cure Elixir from Noah.The Hundred-Cure Elixir could neutralize all kinds of poison. But Lucian was getting old. While he was immune to the toxin, his weakened immune system couldn’t eliminate it completely. The toxin had gradually damaged his organs after so many years."You've earned at least a trillion from the auction, haven't you?" Eden asked, tilting her head.Just the money from her and Terry totaled billions. She wasn’t even considering the earnings from the other items.Skylar nodded. "Yes,
Eden's expression brightened. "I'll mail what Lucian gave me to the usual place. Make sure to pick it up. He said it's from Sierra."The moment Noah heard this, he immediately stood up, excited. "I'll buy a ticket and head home right now. Don't... don't mail it to the usual place. Give me an address, and I'll come to you directly."Eden raised an eyebrow. "Alright."It was rare to see Noah care so much about something like this.Eden was already considering using Sierra to leverage him later on.After hanging up, Eden headed into the main hall.Alain and Skylar were chatting.As soon as Eden walked in, Alain stood up and pulled her into his arms. "You're done already?"Ever since they arrived in Rielton, he felt like he couldn’t keep her in check anymore.Her relationships, everything she did in secret... It all made him anxious.He was afraid she would simply disappear one day.That’s why he had to keep an eye on her. Otherwise, she’d just vanish when he wasn’t looking."Y
Back in the car, Eden leaned back in her seat, her cap pulled low over her face as she closed her eyes. She wasn’t sleeping, but her mind was busy planning.The weather was a bit chilly today. Alain quietly removed his blazer and draped it over her, careful not to disturb her.Horace, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced back at Eden. He had a lot of questions but hesitated to ask, unsure if she was asleep.After a moment of deliberation, Horace spoke in a low voice, "Alain, are you really going to let Eden reveal her status? She’ll be the center of attention once her medical skills are exposed. Eventually, her identity as Boss Griffith will come to light, making things even more dangerous."Alain stared out the window, his dark eyes calm, almost like still water.Horace frowned and continued, "Things are getting more complicated in the Steppe Continent. We need to head there soon. Also, I’ve received orders from the higher ups. We need to uncover the truth about the Sirona murd
Everyone in the living room was stunned by Eden's words.William was the first to react, standing up urgently. "No, you can't leave!"Alain's second uncle, Wallace Ward, quickly added, "That's right. You can't leave before everything is settled."Eden raised an eyebrow. "What's going on?"Helena snorted and said, "Drop the act. You used the Ward family fund to win the auction for the Bloodgod Herb, so naturally, it belongs to the Ward family. If you want to leave, fine. But only after you hand over the Bloodgod Herb.""Oh?" Eden said with a smile, turning to look at Alain, her voice ice-cold. "So, the Wards are trying to steal from me, huh?"Alain's expression darkened, a glint flashing in his eyes.But he quickly masked his emotions, walked over to Eden, and gently patted her head. "The Bloodgod Herb is yours. No one can take it from you."Helena suddenly slammed the table and stood up, furious. "Alain, don't forget you are the scion of the Ward family. Your main priority shou
Sinead turned and stared at Helena, making her increasingly uncomfortable.After a long pause, Sinead finally smiled. "Do you have any medical skills? Does anyone in our family possess great medical skills?"William frowned. "We're talking about the Bloodgod Herb. What does that have to do with medical skills?""William, you should stay quiet since you've never contributed to the family," Sinead replied coldly."Why you..." William started angrily but couldn't find the words to argue back.Ignoring him, Sinead focused on Helena. "The reason so many families are after the Bloodgod Herb is because it's essential in creating medicines that can treat various rare diseases."In prominent families like the Rieltons or other old-money families, they all have members over a hundred years old. That's why almost everyone has someone medically skilled in the family. They need the Bloodgod Herb to make medicine. Who among us is suffering from such strange diseases?""Doesn't Dad have the Se
