Chapter 241

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

"There are some things I know I shouldn’t be the one to say, Helena. But you leave me no choice," Sinead said, her expression stony. "Since your marriage into the Johnson family, you've taken plenty from the Wards to benefit the Johnsons, right? I believe it’s worth several billions at least. I also decided not to worry about what you’ve received from the Ward family's profits."But now, I think it’s best for you to stop coming back to the Wards so often. Don’t worry, even though you’re part of another family, I won’t take your shares away."Helena stared at Sinead in shock. "What are you saying? Are you trying to kick me out of the Ward family?""Listen to yourself. If you can decide who my future daughter-in-law will be, why can’t I help my father-in-law decide who to kick out?" Sinead said slowly."I..." Helena’s face turned red, leaving her speechless.She then turned to William.After a moment of hesitation, William finally spoke. "Even so, we can’t give the Bloodgod Herb to

Eden looked down, her cap shading her face. No one could see her expression, but they all felt the sudden shift in the atmosphere around her.She stood there like a demon rising from the depths of hell.Alain sensed the change too and whispered, "What happened?"Eden looked at him, her voice icy. "My grandma's condition has worsened. The hospital and research institute both ran out of a specific drug."Alain's expression tightened as he gently rubbed her head. "Don't worry. I'll make some calls."He then stepped outside, pulling out his phone.Eden stood there for a long time before finally lifting her head and leaving.Before she left, she turned and looked at the members of the Ward family with an icy gaze. Everyone who met her eyes felt a chill run down their spine.She turned away and left without a word.Alain made several calls, his expression darkening with each one. After hanging up the last call, he turned to Eden. "Someone took all the specific drugs from the medical

"How long will it take?" Eden asked."I'm not sure. The Agency doesn't control international flights," Liam replied. "But I'll do my best to get the drugs to you."Eden looked at Alain, then back at the phone. "Contact Arctic Hawk first."After hanging up, Eden walked over to Alain."Can you get someone from the Median Continent here in three hours?" They needed four hours to get from Rielton to Estburg. By car, they should be able to get back in three."If Arctic Hawk can get the drugs to Estburg in three hours, my grandma can be saved.""I can," Alain said, holding Eden in his arms. He could feel her trembling as her hands tightened. "I'll arrange for a private jet. Have your friend get to the airport right away."Eden nodded and turned to call Arctic Hawk. After explaining the situation, she agreed without hesitation.By the time Eden ended the call, Caelus had already driven the car over.Sinead had also packed their luggage and brought it out.She took Eden's hands. "Don

Eden instantly relaxed her tense body.The car was still speeding down the highway. Eden leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes, her earlier intensity fading away. Alain pulled her into his arms, and she immediately shrank, her fierceness melting into gentleness.Alain patted her back and said, "I'm here."Eden didn’t respond, but Alain could feel her warmth against his chest.He sighed. The only person who could make her let go of her pride and intensity was Sofia.He couldn’t bear to think about what would happen if they couldn’t save her.The car was very quiet. Even the usually talkative Horace was silent, sensing Eden’s anxiety and choosing not to add to her stress.Eden huddled in Alain’s arms, her eyes closed but her mind alert, anxiously waiting for updates from the hospital.Alain held his phone, monitoring the situation in the operating theater. Sofia wasn’t in immediate danger, and the doctors were watching over her closely.Suddenly, Alain’s eyes narrowed and

It was Eden's phone ringing. She glanced at the caller ID and narrowed her eyes. After a moment, she closed the door and answered the call.Before she could speak, Jonathan’s voice came through, urgent and strained. "Boss Griffith, a powerful group has arrived. They are faster and more brutal than we expected. Our people were wiped out before they could react. We've lost hundreds..."Jonathan took a deep breath and continued, "I can see they’re heading towards the hospital. When are you coming back... Damn it!"Gunshots and the sound of a screeching vehicle interrupted him.Eden lowered her head, her cap obscuring her expression. After a moment, she looked up and said, "Let them into the city. Order your team to head to the hospital immediately. My grandma is... Tell Kyle to seal all the city's exits. No one leaves the city tonight!"Jonathan shuddered at her chilling tone. He had never heard Boss Griffith speak with such intensity before. Something was seriously wrong with Sofia!

Talia arrived at the hospital with Peter. The scene of destruction made her frown and look around with a stern expression.Peter quickly had his men secure the area as gunshots rang out around them.Talia took a moment to compose herself before saying, "Grandma Sofia..."Without looking back, she ran straight toward the operating theater.Peter was taken aback and shouted, "Come back, Talia!"But Talia seemed to be completely focused and continued forward.Peter was frantic. He wanted to catch up to her but was suddenly fired upon. He dodged the shot but had to focus on defending himself, unable to follow her.Outside the operating theater, the corridor was littered with bodies. Talia's heart raced as she pushed open the door.Her expression shifted when she saw the inside, and she rushed to Sofia, who was still on the operating table. "Grandma Sofia..."Sofia had been saved earlier by Dr. Keith and others, so she was conscious. Even though she had been injured, she was still

Talia was an excellent shot, hitting all her targets in the head. Her enemies quickly realized they were up against a pro and hesitated to make any sudden moves. One of them signaled for backup.Even though Talia had the upper hand, she remained vigilant. She needed to save Sofia, but she couldn’t take down everyone like Eden could. The longer it took, the more risk there was for Sofia.Just as Talia was unsure of her next move, another group appeared behind her, catching her off guard. She was about to start firing when she heard gunshots from the other end of the corridor.These shots weren’t from the same group.She saw needles piercing into the enemies’ bodies.Eden and Alain were approaching her, looking like demons.Relief washed over Talia's face as she ran toward Eden. "Eden!"Eden's anger was evident as she snapped, "Why are you here? Go home!"Tears filled Talia's eyes. "Eden..."Without looking back, Eden coldly instructed Caelus, "Take her home."Caelus didn’t arg

Eden's hand froze as she lowered her head, biting her lip.After a long pause, she finally lifted her head with determination in her eyes. "I can save you. I know I can!"Sofia pulled her close and patted her hand, offering a smile that wasn’t as bitter. "I knew this day would come. It’s something I can’t avoid."She glanced out the window, noting the dark sky and the cold surroundings. Only Eden brought warmth to her. She looked at Eden and pointed to a chair beside her. "Sit down. I need to tell you something."Eden took a seat."Don’t be sad for me, Ed. Don’t seek revenge on my behalf. Finish your studies and live your life," Sofia said with a sigh. "I know you’ll promise me, but you probably won’t follow through, just like you promised not to look for your father, but you did."Eden lowered her head, saying nothing."I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to get involved. I knew they wouldn’t spare me, especially with your father as an example," Sofia said, squeezing Ed
