The ambiance of Quin’s new location was lovely; one of the most pleasant placed he had been to. The mansion that stood in the middle of the vicinity was so magnificent that Quin stared for a while before he returned his gaze to Doctor Col who had been standing next to him since they got out of the vehicle. “I wasn’t quite sure if this would suit your taste, Doctor Quin. But I hope you can please make do with this little space until we can be able to figure out a way to get you somewhere more befitting of someone of your standard.” Quin sighed, eyes on Doctor Col who bowed in deep reverence. For a few seconds, he refused to even say a word, but the Doctor was hoping to get a positive response from him. “This will do, Doctor Col. I have no need for anything conspicuous at this moment.” Quin was very brief with his speech, and that made Doctor Col sigh in deep relief. “Really?” He asked calmly to be certain that Quin was not going to have a change of mind, but the young Docto

Doctor Col who was surprised that Quin could say such a thing to the Mayor had no other option than to go after Quin at once, leaving Oliver who remained on his knees. Oliver gasped loudly the moment he heard Quin’s utterance, but he also knew that his father deserved to die. Five years earlier, Quin had been summoned to the Mayor’s Villa to help with a little fever that was troubling his wife. Quin instructed that nothing else be given to her after he had given her just a pill to take, but the Mayor’s Physician was not satisfied with what the ordinary farmer had instructed them to do.He was equally angered by the fact that his duty was shifted to someone else who was younger, and who he considered unprofessional and unfit compared to him. Unfortunately, the Mayor’s wife almost died after the Physician decided to go against Quin’s instruction. He administered some medications that almost took her life.When the Mayor discovered this, he inquired from the Physician who told him th

Oliver wiped some of the tears on his face, and then he sighed. At that moment, he was ready to do whatever he was asked to do just to make sure that he saved his father’s life.“Whatever it will take, I am ready.” He sniffled, wiping the tears off his face.“Don’t rejoice yet, doing what I am about to ask of you is no guarantee that I won’t change my mind about helping your father,” Quin smirked, and then he continued only when he was certain that Oliver wasn’t getting too excited.“Your father would have to step down as the mayor of this City. Someone else deserves to rule not him. That’s my condition” Quin maintained a stern look on his face. His voice dripped with so much seriousness was enough to convince Oliver that he wasn’t joking.“But…But…”“Do you think keeping the position is more valuable than his life?” Quin cut him short at once, and all he did was nod in agreement.“I thought as much. Good…” Quin cleared his throat. “Go home and prepare for my arrival. I need you to ma

Quin was so pissed, but the thought of turning around didn’t seem like the best decision to take at that moment. He was already there, and he didn’t think he needed to leave without accomplishing his mission. His anger was rising, but the two men were so carried away with their silly jokes that they believed that there was nothing he could do to them But he chose to ignore them. After all, they were far beneath him, and he didn’t desire to stoop so low to their level.He decided to wait until they were done with their laughter, and then he sighed softly before he spoke with a tone laced with so much authority and annoyance.“I am going to go in now, and I hope that none of you tries to stop me.” “Let’s see how you will get past the two of us.” One of the guards said, and Quin nodded silently.He took the first step calmly, but then the other two were quicker until the first guard attempted to stop him. But he had made a very terrible mistake when he tried to grab Quin’s hands. Wha

Quin had recognized the Mayor’s personal Physician, the reason why he had been thrown into prison. The other Doctor was not happy to see him as well.“What is he doing here, Oliver?! He shouldn’t be here! He is a fake!” Doctor Angus fired, walking toward Oliver who ignored him and focused all his attention on Quin.“I told you specifically that I didn’t want anyone else to be here, Oliver. Were my words so difficult to comprehend?” Quin growled, his eyes showing intense displeasure over the fact that one of his greatest rivals was there. “I am so sorry! I had to make sure that someone was here to keep an eye on him.” Oliver explained, but his explanation was not enough to keep Quin calm.“I don’t think I am comfortable with him here, Oliver. One of us has to leave, and I don’t think you would want me to go.” Quin left Oliver in a very difficult spot, but he knew that it was either he did what was necessary or he was going to lose his only chance of saving his father from the strange

With all the attention still on Quin, he stood in front of the Mayor whose eyes were open, yet he was unable to recognize the person standing close to him.The Mayor had gone partially blind due to the sickness that gripped him, but his condition had been secretly kept away from the public because they didn’t want any attention. Oliver knew that so many influential men in Eastside City had their eyes on the position of the Mayor, and knowing that he had become weak could make them clamor for his office.“This has nothing to do with the Hiatus disease. The mayor has been poisoned, and the venom has eaten deep into his system.” “That’s not possible! My husband couldn’t have been poisoned! Who would be so foolish to do that?” Dina argued, but Quin was certain of everything he said at that moment.“I told you that this guy is fake…” Angus thought he had found the perfect opportunity to make everyone turn against Quin, but he didn’t know that his plan was going to backfire.“How can the

“Why are the guards holding onto him like that after he saved me?” The Mayor asked his son, a little annoyance appearing on his face.“That’s because he wasn’t the one who saved you. We think he poisoned you.”“That’s not true, Oliver!” The Mayor doubted. “Angus would never do such a thing to me. He has been my Doctor for two decades. But if you say he didn’t save me, then who did?”“Him…” Oliver pointed at Quin, and that was when Elliot realized that someone had been standing right next to him the whole time.He turned at once, and as soon as he saw Quin his anger increased.“What is he doing here?! This criminal!”“Stop, Father! He is the reason you are still alive.” Oliver tried to make his father calm, but his mind was already made up and he chose to hold onto his anger.“I am sure all of you remember how he almost killed my wife! This man I a fraud, and I should have him locked up at once!” Elliot continued fuming in annoyance, but his anger was not as hot as that of Quin.‘I kne

Nothing else was left for Angus to do apart from an attempt to escape. But he didn’t know how he was supposed to go about that, and the thought of him incurring the wrath of the vicious Mayor was enough to make him very scared. “I didn’t do it! I swear!” He shed fake tears, but even that wasn’t enough to exonerate him from the guilt of his actions.“How could you, Angus?” The Mayor said weakly, disappointed at the Doctor who he considered his close friend. “Maybe you all can do this later. But I need to be certain that the conditions I gave before I agreed to do this shall be met.” Quin interrupted the Mayor, and then he turned to face Diana who in turn faced Oliver.‘What condition?” The Mayor asked, turning to face his son. Oliver didn’t say a word, he just stood there like he had been thrown into a trance that froze him like ice.“Oliver? Your father asked a question.” Quin said to him, and that was when he knew he had to say something. First, he cleared his throat, but that s

Quin was fed up with the Mayor’s arrogance, and seeing that he was not ready to do what he told him, he said with a calm but stern tone;“I can see that you have still chosen to remain stubborn, Mayor Elliot. But this won’t last for so long, I am sure of that. That position will be taken from you and given to another.” “Are you threatening me? I am still the Mayor of this City and I can have you arrested and thrown into jail!” Elliot threatened, forgetting that he owed his life to Quin. “Your father has just taken a decision he will live to regret in the future, Oliver,” Quin said to the mayor’s son, and then he turned and left after staring at Angus for a while. “Doctor Quin?! Wait!” Oliver went after him at once, but he continued moving without bothering to turn around for any reason. He was only interested in getting to his car and driving off.“I am sorry, Doctor! I thought it was going to be easy to convince him to step own!” Oliver managed to catch up with Quin, panting in e

Quin’s smile was confident, and he was very convinced that he was right about what he thought was the reason behind Lady Xerxes’ problem. “Just allow me to do what I want to do, then we shall ascertain if there will be a difference or not.” “Fine. Do what you must.” Lady Xerxes gave her brother a sign, and he excused them at once. Left alone with Quin, she decided to take off everything she was putting on, beginning from her jewelry, her shoes, and down to her dress. Quin looked away until she was done. “I am ready.” She said calmly, standing before him with jut her underwear on. “Lie down on the bed,” Quin instructed and she obeyed at once without questioning. Then he slowly moved to her and began his examination. First it felt very awkward for Xerxes, but since she had developed a soft spot for him, she decided that it was better him than any other person. “I need you to pay attention to the touch I am about to make on your belly,” Quin said calmly, and then he touc
