"Grandpa, what are you doing? Leon is my boyfriend and if you want him out, I'm going with him!" Iris had not expected Patrick to treat Leon with such disrespect and was about to drag Leon outside in a fit of rage."Iris, don't leave!" Damian panicked and stopped the two from leaving, before turning to Patrick. "Dad, they are guests, after all. Just let Leon stay!""But...oh, alright." Patrick compromised with resignation.Just then, following approaching sounds of footsteps, Penny stepped inside with an old man in his sixties; next to the old man was a young assistant who held a briefcase."Mister Yair, we've been waiting for you for the longest time!" Patrick greeted the man respectfully."I'm sorry, Elder Scammell, I've been too busy lately. Please forgive me for the delay..." Mister Yair smiled apologetically."You are too kind, Mister Yair. I am forever grateful that you are willing to make time for Damian, I'll leave him in your hands," Patrick said.Damian started noticin
Mister Yair checked Damian with medical equipment and soon came to a conclusion."Mister Yair, how is Damian?" Patrick blurted out asking."If I'm not mistaken, Damian has been attacked and suffered damages to his nerves in the past, which worsen over time, rendering him immobile," Mister Yair said confidently."Yes, that's right. I've indeed suffered injuries before at the hands of the Libertons." Damian nodded.The Libertons were the Scammells' competitors in business and Damian had been involved in a conflict with the Libertons two years ago, which ended with him being injured by a few Libertons. Since then, he started experiencing discomfort in his legs, which progressed into a complete loss of senses.Hence, he had always suspected his current condition to be a result of the fight two years ago. Reminded of the fight, his resentment for the Libertons grew, and at the same time, he was impressed by Mister Yair for making such a precise diagnosis."Mister Yair, can Damian be c
"No! You can't take the Snow Panax Pill!" Leon's expression darkened and he stepped forward."What are you doing?"Everyone, including Damian, Patrick, and Penny, turned to look at Leon in confusion. Iris, who was standing next to Leon, was confused as well."There's a saying that a quack is as lethal as a snake. I didn't believe it in the past, but looks like it's true after all!" Leon scoffed."Kid, who are you calling a quack?!" Mister Yair's expression darkened and he glared at Leon angrily."You, of course! Damian has been poisoned, yet you diagnosed that he suffered nerve damage and tries to feed him something that would worsen his condition. That makes you a quack!" Leon spat coldly.Through studying Damian's true energy, Leon had been able to tell that Damian was poisoned. If Mister Yair simply failed to see what the issue was like the doctors who came before him, it would not cause Damian any further damage; however, Mister Yair had given Damian a medication that could p
"Brat, I'm warning you! There's a limit to my patience! Run your mouth again and I will make you pay for it!" Patrick glared at Leon.After what Leon had said earlier, Patrick had already assumed that Leon was a liar and not only had Leon refused to apologize, his actions had escalated and he had hindered the treatment for Damian on purpose."I'm not lying, Elder Scammell. I'm telling the truth!" Leon said firmly. He would have left a long time ago if he was doubted time and time again by others; but since the Scammells were Iris's family by blood and this was a matter of life or death for Damian, Leon could not simply leave simply because Patrick was prejudiced against him."How dare you?!" Patrick was livid and would have killed Leon right there and then had he not been Iris's boyfriend.Naturally, he was not the only one who doubted Leon. Damian and Penny both thought that Leon was out of line for lying and Iris was the only one who believed Leon."Grandpa, can you stop being so
"Don't take it...!" Leon darted forward to stop Damian from taking the pill."That's enough!" Furious, Patrick sent off his true energy, which swarmed Leon."The Emperor State?!" Leon paled and was sent flying before he had the time to respond. He barely managed to anchor himself after backing away and felt his entire body shaking from the attack.Patrick had only meant to warn Leon and did not plan on killing Leon, or Leon would be defenseless to his power. Meanwhile, Damian had already swallowed the Snow Panax Pill."It's over." Leon sighed and shook his head, before giving up. He had tried his best to save Damian's life, but since both Damian and Patrick refused to believe him, there was nothing he could do.Mister Yair proceeded to apply pressure on Damian's compression points and the Snow Panax Pill Damian had taken transformed into a wave of energy that surged through his body. Shortly after, the treatment was completed and Mister Yair withdrew his hands."Dad, how do you f
"That's great! What a miracle!"Patrick and Penny were both overjoyed. Though Mister Yair had promised that he could cure Damian, they had both been slightly worried after what Leon said.To their pleasant surprise, Damian had managed to stand on his feet after just one treatment, which was proof that Mister Yair was more than capable of curing Damian completely."Mister Yair, you are brilliant! I am completely in awe!" Patrick said."You are too kind, Elder Scammell! I'm not that great, but at least I'm not a quack as some brat accused me to be!" Mister Yair smirked smugly and glanced at Leon in contempt."Of course. That kid is just a liar and can hardly hold a candle to your brilliance..." Patrick said. Before he could finish his sentence, things had taken a sudden turn.Damian felt his blood boiling and spewed blood out of his mouth as a sharp pain pierced through his chest. Everything went black and he collapsed onto the ground."Dad, what's wrong?" Shocked, Penny hurried o
"Grandpa, Leon told you not to let Uncle take the pill, but you just won't listen..." Iris sighed sorrowfully, devastated that her uncle had died from not listening to Leon."But..." Patrick came to a realization that all the things that Leon had said were true amd Damian had indeed died from taking the Snow Panax Pill.Just then, Amy, who had returned to her room to rest earlier, overheard all the noises and hurried back to the living room along with Damian's wife, Julie."Penny, what's going on? What happened here?" Both Amy and Julie were shocked by the sight."Grandma, Mom, Dad...Dad is dead..." Penny broke down in tears."What?!" As though they had been struck by lightning, Amy and Julie froze. Amy stumbled backward and was close to collapsing onto the floor, but was caught by Iris in time."Why is this happening? Penny, your dad was perfectly fine just now? Why is he dead?" Amy paled as she struggled to accept what was happening."Leon said that Dad was poisoned and should
Following a deafening noise, Amy's powerful true energy slammed against Patrick, who backed away and spewed blood from the impact.Still livid, Amy was about to launch another attack when Iris stopped her in time. "Grandma, calm down. Grandpa didn't mean for this to happen.""Calm down? How could I? Your mother is gone and now, your uncle, too. Both my children have left this world. What's the point for me to live any longer?" Tears scrolled down Amy's cheek as she was overwhelmed by sorrow."Don't give up just yet, Grandma. There...there might be a way to save Uncle..." Iris said hesitantly."What? There's a way? Am...am I hearing you correctly?" Shocked, Amy gaped at Iris in disbelief. Patrick, Julie, and Penny all turned their heads to look at Iris."I don't know...but Leon is a miracle worker. I came close to dying once, and he was the one who revived me. He might be able to save Uncle," Iris explained."Leon can revive the dead? Are you serious?!"Amy and the others were sh
