Chapter 491
With eyes red as fire, Owen picked up his bottle of poison and exchanged it with Roderick.He was trying his best to make Roderick look him in the eyes, but the latter didn't even give a fvvk about his face.This made Owen close to running mad.He didn't want to believe Roderick was pretending not to know him or what he was up to.Knowing that his cockiness would end very soon by the time he drank the poison, he no longer bothered about his attitude toward him.He believed he could continue his arrogance at his next bus stop—his grave.The host spoke into the microphone. "Since you both have the poison, you can open it and drink it now."The contestants were about to open it and drink it when a voice suddenly stopped them."Wait!!"All eyes turned to the direction from which the voice came, and it was none other than Mr. Cross Senior."What's the matter, Mr. Cross?" Jeremy questioned the old man with a frowny face."Why did you stop them abruptly when they were close to completing the
Chapter 492
"What?!"The crowd exclaimed at the top of their voices.They wondered if Roderick knew what he was saying.A bottle of poison tastes so good that he wishes he could have more. More poison?This was difficult for them to understand.At this point, they began to wonder if he was even human.Because no man on earth would have tasted a bottle of poison and still wish for more.Not only was the crowd in complete awe at this moment, but the judges were stunned, too.Mr. Cross Senior didn't want to believe his ears or his eyes.He thought that if his ears were fooling him about what Roderick had just said, did it mean the sight of him emptying a bottle of poison he had just witnessed was false, too?There's no way his eyes and ears could fail at the same time.Even the host was lost for words at this moment; he was tempted to ask Roderick if he was sure of what he was saying or if it was just a bluff.At this moment, the crowd began to see Roderick as a mini god. And the fact that what he h

The crowd felt pity for him at this moment, as he shouldn't have copied Roderick by emptying his bottle of poison in the same way.If he had known this would be the result, he wouldn't have attempted it.Mr. Cross Senior couldn't hold it in any longer as he sensed that his grandson might lose his life without quick intervention.Then, he jumped out of his seat, running to help his grandson."Owen, how are you feeling?!" he asked impatiently.Unfortunately, Owen couldn't even utter a word.The only thing left for him was to collapse where he stood.Everything else was already lost to him."Talk to me, Owen! How are you feeling?! Does it feel like there are nails in your stomach?!"Mr. Cross Senior couldn't give up on his grandson just like that and continued questioning.The pathetic Owen made a slow nod in response to his grandfather's question.Then the old man muttered to himself, "That must be the Hitian poison. Shit!"He hated the fact that he had tried his best to end the poisoni
Chapter 494
All eyes were on Owen as his grandfather caught him halfway when his body was about to collapse to the ground.Owen looked into his grandfather's eyes and said, "Grandpa, the antidote you gave me has spilled."Mr. Cross Senior nodded in response. "Yes, it's better that it spilled than you drank it."Owen was confused. "Why did you say that?""Because the antidote is only for Hitian poison, not the poison that the fool gave you."Owen's face immediately widened in panic as he replied, "Grandpa, I already took a sip of it.""What?! You sipped the antidote I gave you?!" Mr. Cross Senior didn’t realize when he had revealed his secret to the crowd.Jeremy was the first to confront the old man. "Mr. Cross Senior, did you just say you gave your grandson an antidote?"The old man frowned slightly, wondering if he had really said that.After realizing the statement had slipped out, he quickly denied it."When did I say that, Jeremy?!"Jeremy was about to continue arguing when the old man waved
Chapter 495
They were all wondering where the voice was coming from until Owen appeared behind his table.What?!They were all shocked to see him looking unharmed now after the episodes he had gone through.Not only was the host taken aback, but Jeremy and his colleague were too. So was Mr. Cross Senior.He was waiting for the winner to be announced before he took his grandson out of the place to get the appropriate antidote to help him.And here they were. He had just stood up, looking unharmed.Mr. Cross Senior was confused about how his grandson was able to help himself through the trouble.Just then, the host said to Owen, "Do you think this wouldn't be the end of the competition after Mr. Holmes had completely defeated you?"A wicked laugh escaped Owen's lips. "How could you say he defeated me when I'm still standing on my feet, looking unharmed?"This left the host speechless.Truly, they never said the game would be over if both parties were able to stand on their feet, looking unharmed af
Chapter 496
Not only was Owen secretly going gaga at this moment, but Raphael was too.This was because they had both learned from an insider informant that one of the tasks to be issued today was treating the scar on the face of the beautiful Priscilia.It was a surprise that the task hadn't been brought up until this moment.Of course, Owen and Raphael had no other reason for going mad secretly now. If not that, they had their eyes on Priscilia.She was the woman every man would dream of marrying.Given that the young lady was from an affluent and powerful family, whoever won her heart would have to be extraordinary.However, given the flaw that made her beauty average, the bar for marrying her was set at whoever could treat the scar on her face.Many young men interested in Priscilia saw this as an opportunity to use wisely, but most of them failed.Owen and Raphael, being in the medical world, had high hopes that one of them would get the chance to marry the beauty.As for Raphael, he had no
Chapter 497
Owen thought his ears were tricking him. He didn't want to believe he had heard the host correctly.Was he supposed to make a scar on his own body and then apply the solution to see the result?It was tough for Owen to wrap his head around it.He was wondering whether he should consider that a great insult to his personality or overlook it.Of course, he had so much belief in his work, but why did that have to lead to him injuring himself?He was still in the middle of the silence, confused and unclear about the matter when Jeremy's voice struck him."What's stopping you, Owen? Go ahead with it."What?!Owen didn't want to believe he heard Jeremy correctly. He wondered if he meant his words or if he was only joking around.Right at that moment, the third judge butted in, too."If you are so confident about your work, then go ahead with it, Owen."It was really surprising to Owen that this seemed serious to them.They did want him to injure himself and apply his solution to see the res

The more he stared at the injury on his hand, the more pathetic he felt for himself.At this point, he wished he had never entered the contest at all.Not only had he been suffering since the beginning, but now he had also sustained an unexpected injury.The host said, "It was really a great idea that you used the solution on yourself first. Does this mean that Miss Hart would have suffered the same pain if she had applied it to her scar?"Nobody had seen this coming. It turned out to be a great decision for Owen to apply the solution to himself first.Just then, Roderick announced that his ointment was ready.The host responded, "Very well. How can you prove that your ointment isn't the same as Owen's?"With a small smile, Roderick answered, "That's no trouble. We already have a specimen to check."The crowd wondered what specimen he meant until he walked toward Owen and picked up his scalded hand."What?! What are you trying to do?" Owen angrily snatched his hand back."Calm down, m
Chapter 499
The crowd was all wondering how an ointment could be that speedy in effectiveness.Not in their entire lives had they ever witnessed such a thing.The judges were all left in total disbelief, too. They were in the medical field, but what they had just witnessed was a discovery to them.All eyes were glued to Roderick, staring at him in awe.Priscilia, who was watching the scene from a distance, didn't want to believe her eyes.She had always heard that there was something called a miraculous ointment that could clear her scar and restore her confidence, but she never believed it ever existed.However, what she had just witnessed now blew her mind away.She had just recovered from the shock when she ordered one of her maids to get the ointment from Roderick to apply it to her face immediately.Without wasting time, the ointment was applied to Priscilia's scar, and the miracle began to happen.The maid who was applying the ointment on Priscilia's face couldn't handle the shock and screa

The crowd was in shock that the clarity fruit Roderick requested was a rare herb.They couldn't believe all his excellent work from the beginning was because he wanted to request a rare herb.Wow!They found someone like him strange. However, they were not in a position to tell him what to request and what he shouldn't.In the middle of that, Priscilia spoke up, too."As I promised earlier, please make a request, Mr. Holmes."This was when intense attention was placed on Roderick.Everyone was expecting what Roderick would request this time around.Raphael and Owen had their attention glued to Roderick the most.They already knew what he would request, but they wanted him to mention it first.Roderick, on the other hand, was pondering what he should request.Just then, he asked again, "I can request anything, right?"Priscilia answered with a blushing smile, "Mr. Holmes, I know what's on your mind. I'm assuring you that if you request it, it will be granted."The crowd was shocked tha
