Isaac swallowed hard, as he exhaled heavily. “Mr. Davis, do you have anyone in mind to become the new chancellor?” He asked.

Austin paused for a moment. He thought about it, but no one came into his mind. “No, you should hold an election and allow the students to make their choice,” He stated.

There was never a time in Lincoln’s history when students were allowed to choose who becomes the vice-chancellor, but Austin was trying to change their history as the new owner.

Austin added, “I want the school to be renovated, and everything necessary should be put in place.”

“I will do as you said, Mr. Davis,” Isaac replied.

Mr. Isaac, you should never inform anyone about what happened here today, and don’t tell the school about the new ownership.” He said, “Then for Gabriel, he should be made the new chief security officer, and his salary should be increased by 20 per cent.”

Gabriel blinked twice, his eyes filled with gratitude. “Thank you, Mr. Davis.” He said in appreciation.

    Later that night, Austin left home. He drove to the Kent mansion, one of the biggest around Auburn. Austin ambled inside the mansion, with Dr. Lucy. His expression was calm and focused. When they arrived at the dinner hall, he was offered a seat beside Dr. Lucy. Lady Kent was surprised to see Austin, despite not knowing him she kept a curious gaze at him. He wasn’t a doctor, so why was he invited?Helen was seated beside her mother. Her eyes lit up in excitement seeing the people who saved her life. Lady Kent had the gathering delayed momentarily, as she was expecting Dr. Clifford and Oliver. But unknown to her was that the two were facing their punishment in Zachary’s basement.Dr. Lucy contacted them but their numbers were unavailable. They could no longer wait, so Lady Kent began. She leaned forward, as she cleared her throat. “Good evening, everyone. I am sorry for the delay. Since the two doctors couldn’t make it, I don’t have to wait; whatever message we share here will be p

    The two doctors trembled, while pleading but Zachary kept a deaf ear to their pleas. They were taken away, and they knew their chances of survival at that moment were slim.Just after they left, Lloyd and Vincent came back. This time they came with everything Austin ordered. They were neatly arranged.“Mr. Davis, everything you requested has been brought.” Zachary said with a low tone.Austin instructed the room to be open, and no one should stand at the entrance. The windows were also left open, as Austin began without hesitation, he took out a necklace from his pocket and placed it around the boy’s neck. Then light the incense, with the talisman placed beside the bowl. This time, he burnt all the incense; the room began filling with smoke. He sprinkled the salt around the bed and on the bed as well. Then began muttering in silence words no one, aside from him, could understand. They felt the wind watching over their face, and the movement was fast enough for them to comprehend.

    Vincent watched his son with panic, his wife’s eyes began shimmering with tears, when she saw blood seeping from his nose. “What have you done to my son?”Dr. Clifford stared in horror, his confidence shattered before his eyes. He couldn’t tell what he had done but he knew it was dangerous. Oliver stared at Dr. Clifford, he could tell they were into some big problem. If anything should happen to Vincent’s son, they wouldn’t leave the mansion alive, not when he had a brother like Zachary.Just then, Zachary walked into the room, with a blank expression, and he looked at them in confusion the moment he stepped in.“What’s going on? Where is Austin? Why is he bleeding?” his voice crackled.“I.. do…don’t know.” Dr. Clifford responded stuttering.He knew it was the drug he administered to the boy; his heart sank deeply, watching the boy. Something needed to be done or else the boy might not last a few minutes.Vincent’s eye blinked as his mind raced, “What if my son dies because I refuse

    The maid found Yara’s clothes in the wardrobe, which left her dumbstruck. The maid glanced at each other with a stunned expression.They turned to face Mr. Vincent and the rest. “We found this cloth here.”Vincent couldn’t help but sigh, he didn’t know what to say when his lip parted open. “Get him everything he requested, do that immediately.” Mrs. Churchill muttered. Lloyd and the two other maids rushed out of the room, while the rest stayed behind.When everything was brought as requested, Austin nodded. He asked the boy’s mother to remove his clothes, revealing his upper body. He stood quietly in the room, his face calm and focused, his eyes fixed on the bowl and other items he had before him. He takes a breath. Then lights the incense.Soft smoke begins to curl upward, grey and clean. It winds around the ceiling, floating like a silk ribbon caught in slow motion. The scent is ancient, earthly, calming, like temples and time itself.He closed his eyes.No words are spoken. No

    “This is dangerous! You’re blaming a ghost for a medical condition and a miscarriage? This is cruel. Vincent, don’t do this. Don’t let him twist your pain into some spiritual delusion.” Dr. Clifford said angrily.“Mr. Churchill, you should put an end to the young man, he is trying to brainwash you into believing his fake stories. Never, he is trying to do something fake so you will get to reward him.”Austin smiled, “What’s cruel is denying a soul her peace. She’s not evil.”“I can handle this, your son is suffering from an autoimmune disease. And not some spirit thing. Dr. Oliver and I will handle this, you can send the man away. Besides you said the priest did his job.”The priest was a well-respected man, whom Vincent paid millions of dollars just to come over to his house. He witnessed the man perform his magic and placed some talismans around the house; he even gave them some, which Vincent and his family still had placed around the house.“You must talk to her. Let her know you

    After Thomas parked the car, they both stepped down and went ahead to meet Lloyd who stood at the entrance. The elderly man led them to the villa, which was built luxuriously, and one would think it belonged to the royal family.Upon entering, they were led to the boy’s room. Lloyd stepped to a halt after which he knocked twice, before gently opening the door.“I can’t go in. I will wait outside for you, Mr. Davis.” Thomas informed.Austin nodded, as he walked straight into the room. Inside the room at that moment stood two familiar doctors. Austin ignored their stares at him and he walked to the side of the room.Dr. Clifford and Dr. Oliver’s expressions shifted the moment they spotted Austin. They whispered amongst themselves. However, as Lloyd stepped into the room, he walked straight to Vincent and whispered into his ear. Vincent shifted his head, taking a glance at Austin and then nodded. He then approached Austin, with his hand stretched forward, and Austin didn’t fail to rec
