Evelina, who was holding the steering wheel with one hand at that moment, was shocked. The instinct deep in her soul felt very happy when she heard the news of Ansel's recovery.She asked, "What happened? I'm on my way home."Marcel answered enthusiastically, "National toxicology expert Doctor Troy Snider will arrive at the house in a few moments!""You have to come home immediately and witness his success with your own eyes!"Evelina was silent for a moment. She had heard that name before. He was someone highly respected both personally and academically. Compared to Adrian who was young and just a flower seller, Troy Snider was indeed like the sky above Adrian.Even so, she remembered how Anders who was dying recovered because of Kandila. That wasn't a small achievement that could be made by just anyone.Moreover, Adrian truly had a collection of rare plants that made it reasonable that he was capable of producing a miraculous pill that wasn't produced by ordinary pharmaceutical comp
Chapter 42
Theron stared at Adrian suspiciously, "Who are you calling?"Adrian answered while waiting for the call to connect, "The Governor of Strearia, of course."Theron sneered cynically, "You think we'll believe your dirty trick?"Then spoke with full confidence, "Turn off your phone. Let me make a video call directly with Raiven Gibson using my smartphone."Theron's statement immediately made Marcel and Cressida enthusiastic. With Theron making the video call directly, Adrian couldn't possibly fake the phone number or manipulate the voice.That way, Theron would easily expose Adrian's lies.Marcel laughed in disgust. "You must be scared, right?""You definitely won't say anything to him because he doesn't even know you!""Then, how could you possibly give him orders to cancel our harbor project?"Cressida nodded in agreement with her husband's idea. "Great idea, honey! You're so smart to expose his lies!"She turned toward Adrian and spoke sharply, "How about it? Do you dare?"Meanwhile, E

Before answering the governor's question, Adrian stared sharply at Theron. Marcel unconsciously stepped back while Cressida hugged her husband's arm tightly.Marcel's face looked dazed for a moment. "N-No..."His voice trembled, "This... this is impossible. Who is he really?"Cressida spoke nervously, "Honey, say something! He... He's really just a flower seller, right?""How could the governor..."Theron himself was silent. He couldn't believe a governor was acting so friendly and polite to an ordinary flower seller like Adrian. Unless, he owed Adrian a debt of gratitude.Even so, for Theron that alone wasn't enough and didn't prove anything about the harbor contract cancellation. Raiven might just be being polite.He spoke in a low voice as if convincing himself, "Of course he's just an ordinary flower seller.""M-Maybe this is just a coincidence.""Even if Adrian once saved the governor or his family, business is still business!""Especially if it's worth billions! He won't make dec

Theron's knees couldn't support his trembling body. He fell forward with both hands braced on the floor. His heavy, desperate sobs filled the room."We're... we're ruined..."Cressida was no better. Her crying exploded, hysterical. She knelt beside her husband, shaking Theron's shoulders."Theron, get up! Do something! He's going to destroy everything!"But Theron only shook his head weakly. All arrogance, all distrust, had been crushed by reality harder than stone. A Governor who was the pinnacle of the power network in Strearia province that they respected, had just handed over control to that young man. What else could they do?Only Marcel still held a spark of fire in his eyes. With a growl he spoke, "You... you demon!""You're destroying our family! For what?! For money?!"Evelina stood in the middle, torn seeing her family's destruction, yet also feeling a bitter relief that the truth had finally been revealed.She approached her father, placing her gentle hand on Theron's tremb

When Adrian and Evelina arrived at the upstairs hallway, Ansel's room was wide open. Inside, the atmosphere was focused and intense.Troy Snider had already opened his case, taking out sophisticated portable equipment. Dr. Joshua stood beside him, ready to help, his face full of admiration.Theron and Cressida stood somewhat distant near the window, gripping each other's hands tightly. Their eyes didn't leave the bed where their grandson lay pale.Troy had just finished examining the pupils and was listening to Ansel's heartbeat with an electronic stethoscope. His face was furrowed in concentration.Marcel, who had hurried upstairs, immediately whispered loudly to Theron. "Dad, look! He dared to follow us here!"Theron turned, and for the first time since Troy's arrival, his anger exploded when he saw Adrian calmly standing at the doorway."Hey! Who gave you permission to come in here?" Theron snapped, his voice trying to be controlled so as not to disturb the doctor.Cressida pulled

Adrian held the pearl-like pellet between his index finger and thumb. "This is Kandila, which will cleanse Ansel's body and restore it."Theron furrowed his brow. "Cleanse? But the doctor said the poison is already bound inside the cells–"Adrian cut him off. "And Kandila will enter those cells." "It's not an ordinary drug that works in the blood. It's designed to penetrate cell membranes, seek out the damaging platinum bonds, and release them."He looked at Troy Snider, giving him a chance to understand. "The platinum bound in the mitochondria and cellular DNA is the source of the problem, aside from mutations in the CYP450 genes and glutathione transferase.""Chelation therapy only cleans the blood, like sweeping trash in the middle of a room while ignoring the trash hidden behind the cabinet."Troy remained silent, but his eyes showed understanding. He knew the limitations of conventional therapy.Adrian continued, "But Kandila goes behind the cabinet. It penetrates to where the p

Cressida let out a soft scream and immediately knelt beside the bed, her hands trembling as she touched her grandson's cheek. "Ansel? Darling, can you hear me?"Theron stood frozen a few steps from the bed. Both his eyes were brimming with tears, witnessing this impossible transformation. His tightly clenched fists slowly loosened.The blood full of rage, despair, and disbelief suddenly turned into a flood of relief so overwhelming it nearly made him dizzy."Ansel! Thank God, you're finally awake."Tears streamed down his cheeks.Meanwhile, Marcel could only remain silent. His annoyance and hatred toward Adrian were swept away by the undeniable reality before his eyes. His nephew, who had been dying, was now breathing and his eyes were open.He looked at Adrian, then at Ansel who gradually appeared more refreshed. His ego and prejudice crumbled to pieces."Ansel, how are you feeling now?"Evelina covered her mouth with both hands, her body trembling violently. This wasn't just relief,

Theron stood frozen in the middle of his own grand living room. But for the first time in his life, he felt like an intruder.At the same time, as the current eldest son of the Harvey family, Marcel was furious and wanted to rebel. Even so, the image of Ansel coming back to life stopped him.Adrian continued his words, deciding, "Starting tomorrow morning, all the positions you hold will be replaced by Evelina."Theron, Cressida, and Marcel looked at each other.Marcel felt like he had been struck by lightning in broad daylight."What?!" he shrieked, his voice breaking."That doesn't make sense! She has never even been involved in board meetings!"He stepped forward, his finger pointing toward the stairs where Evelina was still upstairs. "She almost failed college because she was too busy taking care of Ansel!""Meanwhile, I'm the one who worked day and night to make the company more advanced and growing!"Marcel took a deep breath, trying to control his burning anger. But his words ke

After leaving the Harvey family mansion, Adrian went to Vecredal Hospital to check on Jaylin Owen's condition after surgery.At the same time at Vecredal Hospital, a middle-aged woman in a faded purple dress was chatting with a doctor. The woman repeatedly wiped her tears and spoke while sobbing."Doctor, I can't even afford half of the surgery costs. How could I possibly pay for post-operative care costs?""I'm a single mother with 6 children and Jaylin is my eldest child. I can't take care of him.""I've spent all my money on Jaylin's siblings."Doctor Isaac Manning tried to speak patiently, "I understand your situation, ma'am, but Jaylin is your son."Elizabeth sobbed, her voice almost inaudible. "Doctor... I know this request is outrageous. But... please give my son a lethal injection."Doctor Isaac was stunned. "What do you mean?""He'll never wake up, right? You yourself said his brain is severely damaged."Elizabeth clasped her own hands, trembling. "I can't bear to see him like

Even though the doctor had ordered him out, Adrian still did not leave the room.Doctor Isaac glared at Adrian. "Are you challenging me? Truly stubborn!"Adrian answered calmly. "I am indeed stubborn. But so are you.""Yet you yourself aren't even sure what you can do to save Jaylin!"The sound from the monitor grew louder and the graph on the monitor continued to decline.Adrian spoke calmly again. "See? You can't even bring Jaylin's condition to improve."Isaac, who was already very annoyed, said, "Do you think you're some savior who can cure critical patients?"Adrian answered calmly again, "Call me whatever you want. But my herbal pills have saved many lives in critical conditions.""That's why I want to help my friend Jaylin."Isaac sneered, "What guarantee is there that the medicine you're going to give him isn't poison?""You're the owner of that flower shop, you definitely don't want the hassle of being responsible for supporting Jaylin's life in the future!"Adrian let out a s
