The scream was so chilling it seemed to freeze the very air, dragging the room’s temperature down in an instant. It had already been cold, but now it felt like they’d been tossed onto a snowy peak.

CRACK!

CRACK!

No one had even processed what was happening when sharp cracking sounds tore through the room.

“Ugh…” Lena groaned, her body twisting on the floor. Her hands clutched her chest as she gasped for breath, each exhale spilling out in a thin, icy mist.

“Miss! Miss!” Chester roared in panic, terror flashing across his face. He'd never seen something like this. She was just fine, though weak, a second ago! How had things gotten so worse like this?

Before his horrified eyes, frost began creeping over Lena’s lips and eyelashes, spreading across her skin as her veins darkened into a ghastly blue. The cracking didn’t stop as well. It was like shards of ice splintering inside her very bones.

“Argh!” Chester cried, trying desperately to channel his energy into her body as before, but noth

    "No!" Chester howled, seizing Walter by the collar. "You can't be serious! Miss Harmon is not dead! She can't be dead! You promised you'll heal her; you better heal her!" He was like a madman gone crazy. He shoved Walter toward the bed, forcing him before Lena. “Treat her! If you don’t, I swear I’ll kill you all and burn this place down!”His energy flared, eyes bloodshot, a murderous aura rolling off him.Feeling this terrifying, murderous aura, a chill ran down Walter's and Clara's spines.Clara turned to Walter, who was sweating buckets, her face full of terror. "Dad, what happened? Thought you said it'd work?"Walter bit his lip. “I don’t know! By my diagnosis it should’ve worked. I don’t know what went wrong. I don’t!” His voice cracked on the edge of tears.Clara frowned deeply. This was a huge problem. She turned to Chester, trying to reason with him. "Sir...""Save it!" Chester cut her off coldly. "I'm giving you two five minutes to wake up my miss or I'll paint this place red

    “Master,” he stepped forward, handing over the bag and Walter’s card.“Did you get everything?” Walter asked, slipping the card into his pocket before checking the contents of the bag. He sifted through quickly, picking out the items required for Lena.“Hm.” Julian gave a curt nod.Once he had separated what was needed, Walter passed the bag back to Julian. “You’ll handle the other patients,” he instructed. Pulling out his notepad, he scribbled down a list of diagnoses and instructions. After a moment, he handed it to Julian. “This outlines what’s wrong with each patient and how to treat them. Follow every step exactly—no mistakes.”Given his skill, Walter had already identified their conditions during registration. He knew their cures; the only risk now was Julian’s precision. If Julian executed everything properly, they would all recover.Turning to Clara, Walter added, “Go with him. Make sure he doesn’t slip up.”Clara hesitated, a slight crease forming between her brows. “Dad, do

    At Walter’s words, though he never revealed the account balance, everyone’s attention snapped back to the small card in his hand—and then to Robin. Could his black card really hold the kind of balance that had left Walter speechless? From Walter’s words, the twenty million had cleared without issue, and everyone knew only those with billions in liquid wealth could even qualify for such a card. Was Robin truly one of those people?Sheila glanced at Robin, her heart tightening. He kept surprising her. When she met him, she'd thought herself the privileged one, yet he was the real deal—and he carried it with such humility. Her pulse quickened. That quiet confidence of his… it made him impossibly attractive.Clara, on the other hand, felt a rush of excitement. Her gaze glittered, her body tingling. Had she just hooked the catch of a lifetime? The thought alone made her dizzy, her attraction for Robin shooting through the roof.Off to side, seeing all these, Julian was beside himself in

    "Uh," Clara was taken aback by the sudden question. But she quickly caught herself, forcing a stiff smile. "N-no, of course not. Why do you ask, Miss?""Well," Sheila tilted her head slightly, eyes gleaming in mischief. "Your blouse… don’t you think it’s a little too open? Or maybe… are you feeling hot?”Clara’s jaw tightened instantly. Damn this woman! She was too sly! The weather was cold; if she said that she was really hot, she'd be a liar, and that could expose her little deliberate act! Her fists curled tight at her sides, nails digging into her palms.Still, she couldn’t allow herself to be exposed so easily. Grinding her teeth, she forced her voice steady and lied without blinking. “No, not at all. My blouse must’ve come loose when I was kicked by the Abyssal Dominion. I hadn’t even realized.”Yeah, sure, Sheila scoffed inwardly, rolling her eyes. Outwardly though, her face softened into a look of sympathy, as though she actually pitied Clara. “Oh, my apologies,” she said ligh

    “Fine,” he finally said, turning to Robin. “Sir, I’ll sell the hospital to you. Please, just give me whatever price you believe is fair. I only need enough to settle the patients and staff.” Though his worries lingered, his daughter’s happiness mattered more than anything else. If letting Robin have the hospital would bring her joy—and perhaps even create a path for her to get closer to him—then he was willing to go through with it. Even if they had to leave the hospital afterward, he knew his daughter would always find reasons to return, giving her the chance to nurture whatever bond might form. All he could do was pray Robin would survive long enough for her to have that chance.At his words, Robin's brows couldn't help but narrow. Even though Clara had spoken in a whisper, his heightened senses had picked up every word. The sudden shift in her stance left him baffled. Why the change of heart so quickly? Or was this just her nature—fickle, indecisive? His eyes drifted toward her, s
