At that moment, Callista stood frozen, unable to even form a coherent thought. The gravity of her husband’s words, his accusations, hit her like a tidal wave, overwhelming her. She was paralyzed in disbelief, unable to speak, to move, to defend herself. She had no explanation for what had happened, no defense for the unimaginable mess she had just created.

She thought about the confrontation, about the power she had felt when she thought she was in control. Now, that power felt like dust beneath her feet. The weight of it all—her decisions, her actions—pressed down on her chest, suffocating her. Her eyes glazed over as she stared at the empty space in front of her, lost in her own shame.

The silence was broken when the phone rang again, its harsh tone jolting her from her stupor. Her hand trembled as she lifted it to her ear, her breath shallow, her body frozen.

“Callista, what are you still doing? Do you not understand what I just said? Who did you offend? Who did you insult? We need

    At that moment, Tyler's cold, deadly gaze slowly shifted to Evelyn's father's brother, settling sharply upon him. Tyler's eyes seemed to pierce through him, filled with quiet yet powerful confidence. The air around him grew heavy and tense as Tyler raised his finger deliberately, pointing directly at the man whose expression had suddenly changed, becoming guarded and defensive.“Well,” Tyler said clearly, his voice calm yet dangerously cold, “if you truly believe you're smart enough, if you genuinely think you can do whatever you want and escape without consequence, then let me tell you this right now I’m not here to force anyone into believing me. You can choose to believe or doubt what I say.”Then he paused slightly, his tone growing even colder, eyes unwavering. “But I'll speak the truth anyway.”Tyler turned his gaze briefly towards the old man, whose body still lay entirely motionless upon the bed, appearing lifeless to everyone in the room. He gestured firmly toward the body, h

    At that moment, Sophia was still rooted in shock, her entire body shaking slightly as she tried to grasp what had just happened in front of her eyes. Her mind was racing, replaying Tyler's actions the placement of those needles, the impossible levitation, and the overwhelming aura she had felt.Suddenly, Evelyn's parents turned towards Sophia, their faces filled with righteous anger and barely-concealed disdain. Evelyn’s mother, forcing herself into a respectful stance, stepped forward, her voice carefully masking her frustration.“Miss Sophia,” she began, her tone falsely polite but clearly filled with contempt, “you see what we've been telling you all this while? Tyler is nothing but a fraud. Look at him he has just killed my father in law.”Immediately after, Evelyn's father joined in, his voice trembling with anger, bitterness evident in his words. “Exactly! This boy has killed my father cold-bloodedly, Miss Sophia. He's nothing but a quack, a nobody! How dare he pretend to know

    Despite her doubts, Sophia couldn't help but feel deeply intrigued. Something about Tyler didn't fit with what she had heard. Her curiosity overcame her skepticism, and she quietly channeled her inner sight, focusing all her spiritual senses directly onto Tyler. She wanted to see clearly, without bias or assumptions, exactly what Tyler was about to do.Meanwhile, Tyler appeared completely unbothered by everyone's scrutiny. Calmly, almost gently, he opened the small pack that Evelyn had handed him and carefully took out five thin, sharp acupuncture needles. Each needle gleamed subtly in his fingers, catching the dim light in the room.He approached the old man with deliberate movements, his face serious but calm, entirely focused on what he had to do. Everyone around fell silent as he prepared himself, the air heavy with anticipation.Without a single word, Tyler gently placed his first needle right at the center of the old man's forehead. The needle slid smoothly into the skin, precis

    At that moment, Tyler stood completely still, his face calm and steady, showing no emotion. Evelyn and her family watched him from a distance, their expressions still full of disgust and disdain, clearly doubting Tyler's capability. The air in the room felt heavy, like nobody believed he could actually do anything.Ignoring their cold stares, Tyler carefully moved closer to the old man who lay quietly on the bed. With gentle hands, he slowly opened the old man's shirt, revealing what was underneath. Instantly, Tyler's eyes narrowed as he took in the horrific sight before him.The old man's body was no longer the healthy, warm color it used to be. Now, his skin had turned frighteningly pale, like a ghost, cold and lifeless. The skin itself seemed fragile, almost as if touching it too roughly might cause it to break apart.Even worse, thick black veins spread wildly across his body, creeping from his neck down through his chest, and stretching all the way to his thin, weak hands. These

    Without any more wait, Tyler went right to the room. He knew the old man was in there. When he got to the door, he pushed it open. Inside, he saw the whole family. They all stood up. Some were people Tyler knew from when he married Evelyn. But others were new to him. He had not seen them before. They came from far away, maybe. All of them looked sad and worried.Sophia was there too. She stood quiet in the corner. She did not say a word. This made Tyler feel very mad inside. why was she still here? But he hid his anger. He did not show it on his face. He just walked past everyone to the old man.The old man lay on the bed. He looked weak and sick. His face was pale. Before Tyler could open his mouth, the old man's younger brother spoke up. He was a big man with a loud voice. He pointed at Tyler and said, “Who is this good-for-nothing goof they brought here? Is this a turtle or what? What is he doing in this room?”At that moment Everyone turned to look at Tyler. They stared with big

    At that moment, when Evelyn heard the words from Tyler's mom and saw the look on Tyler's face, she started to smile big. She could not stop it. It felt good inside. Now, Tyler and his mom knew what was real. They were back from their dream thoughts. If Tyler and his mom thought they could get in the same car and ride home with them, they were so wrong. People who looked dirty and had no home, like them, did not belong in the car with with.Immediately she said pointing at Tyler.“Now that you have come back to your scenes, good for you, but don't think you will drive on same car with us, it's not even possible.”Right away, Evelyn's mom spoke up. She said, “Yes, Evelyn is right. Tyler and his mom do not get that kind of help. They can walk on their feet or find a taxi.”With no more time to wait, Evelyn's dad took out his wallet from his pocket. He let some one-dollar bills and coins fall to the ground. They made a small sound on the floor. He said, “That is for you. It is enough to p
