At that moment in time, upon hearing what Vincent's father had just said, Doctor Kai, despite the simmering fury coursing through him at the disrespect Marcus had shown him moments earlier, found himself momentarily distracted by something far more unsettling than mere insult. There was a flicker of disgust that crossed his features, yes, but beneath that disgust was something sharper, something more calculating, and it was with that calculating edge that he finally spoke.

    Immediately, Doctor Kai's patience snapped entirely, and he turned his head sharply toward the security guards still gripping Marcus by the arms."Just get him out of here," he said, his voice clipped and final. "I don't want to see him again."In that same breath, Vincent's father, who had been holding onto a particular plan of his own, raised a hand slightly as though to slow the momentum of the moment."Wait," he said quickly. "Don't you think we should wait? I really wanted my mother to come see this. I wanted her to walk in here and identify this bastard with her own eyes, to confirm once and for all whether he is actually the person she claimed to be expecting. That is precisely why I instructed the security guards to hold him in the first place, so that there would be no confusion, no room for him to slip away before she arrives."But Doctor Kai, his irritation sharpening with every passing second, shook his head dismissively."That is not important right now," he said firmly.

    At that moment in time, upon hearing what Vincent's father had just said, Doctor Kai, despite the simmering fury coursing through him at the disrespect Marcus had shown him moments earlier, found himself momentarily distracted by something far more unsettling than mere insult. There was a flicker of disgust that crossed his features, yes, but beneath that disgust was something sharper, something more calculating, and it was with that calculating edge that he finally spoke."Who could this be?" Doctor Kai asked, his voice low, measured, carrying none of the outrage one might expect given the insults hurled at him only moments before.Vincent's father blinked, caught entirely off guard by the question, because the last thing he had anticipated was for Doctor Kai, a man of such towering reputation and global acclaim, to show even the faintest flicker of recognition or curiosity toward someone like Marcus. He had expected dismissal, perhaps contempt, but not this quiet, searching inquiry.

    At that moment, Marcus, still held firmly by the security guards, finally spoke, and when he did, his voice carried a quiet, simmering frustration that had been building steadily throughout the entire ordeal, the kind of frustration that belongs to someone who has endured more disrespect than they initially believed they would need to tolerate."So after all of this," Marcus said, his tone edged with incredulity, "after everything, this is actually who you people brought?"He paused, shaking his head slowly."If it were not for Penelope, if it were not for the respect I have for her, what would I even be doing here receiving this kind of humiliation, this embarrassment from you people? What reason would I possibly have to stand here and endure this if not for her?"The moment the words left his mouth, Vincent's face flushed with renewed anger, his entire body tensing as though Marcus had struck him physically."Will you keep your mouth shut?" Vincent snapped, his voice rising sharply.

    At that moment in time, the door swung open with an abruptness that seemed to freeze everyone mid-motion, and the young man's father entered the room, his presence immediately commanding attention not through aggression but through the sheer weight of authority that came from years of being the head of this household, and the moment he crossed the threshold, his eyes swept across the scene with sharp, searching urgency."Is my mother back yet?" he asked immediately, not bothering with preamble or pleasantries. "Is my mother back yet?"Vincent shook his head, and the look on his face was not simply anger, though anger was certainly there, written in the hard set of his jaw and the tension radiating through his shoulders, but beneath the anger was something deeper, something far more unsettling: a kind of devastation, the look of someone who feels betrayed not just by circumstances but by trust itself, by the people he had been raised to believe would never lead him astray."No, she's n

    At that moment in time, as the security guards advanced closer toward him with a slow, deliberate menace that was clearly meant to intimidate before any physical contact was even made, their expressions carrying that particular blend of disgust and barely restrained violence reserved for men who have been given explicit permission to be rough with someone, Marcus found himself unmoved by their presence, his attention remaining fixed instead on the two people in the room who actually mattered in that moment: the young man whose fury had summoned this small army, and the girl lying motionless on the bed, her chest rising and falling in shallow, labored breaths that seemed to grow more strained with every passing second they wasted on this entirely unnecessary confrontation.He looked at her for a long moment, his expression unreadable, and then he turned his gaze back toward the young man, and when he spoke, his voice carried none of the fear or urgency one might expect from a man surro

    The young man stood frozen for a moment, caught in an agonizing suspension between instinct and obligation, because he genuinely did not know what he was supposed to do, whether to obey the demand of this strange, unsettling man his mother had vouched for sight unseen, or to refuse outright and trust his own judgment instead. He searched his memory desperately, trying to recall anything, any article, any documentary, any passing mention anywhere in his life that suggested undressing a patient before treatment was something real physicians actually required, and he found nothing. No memory offered him reassurance. No precedent existed to validate the request.And yet, despite his unease, despite every instinct screaming at him that something about this did not sit right, he found himself nodding slowly."Well," he said, his voice tight, "I will undress her. But after I undress her, what exactly are you going to do next?"Marcus answered without pause."Once you undress her completely,"
