Supreme Grand Master Liam Miller

chapter 9

After ending the calll, Jessica turned back to Cynthia.

“What were you saying cynthia?” Jessica asked.

“Mr Miller is a pervert and I have evidence to prove it.” she said with a straight face.

She showed Jessica the picture she got from Ashley and a fabricated chat picturing him as a pervert.

Jessica’s expression turned serious as she saw the picture. 

“Thank you, i assure you that measures will be taken against it.” she said 

“Keep the good work up.”

“You can leave now.” She dismissed Cynthia.

“Yes ma.” she said and left Jessica's office.

Although Jessica did not take any immediate action, Cynthia leaves Jessica’s office feeling victorious believing that her plan to get Liam fired finally worked.

Jessica looked at the papers Cynthia left on her desk containing a chat log between Liam and an unknown woman and the picture that clearly gives away his face.

Liam after taking care of his room decided to go to the herb market to get herbs to suppress the seal in him.  

He went to almost all the stores but could not get the herb he needed, he decided to go back home.

On his way back, he stumbled on Healthy lands , a prominent store connected to the Grants, one of the eight great families mentioned by Christopher earlier.

He remembered Gabriel saying their partnership with TMO will favor both parties. Curiosity got the better of him so he decided to check the store.

He entered the store to check if he would be able to get the herbs he needed. When he entered he noticed a crowd  gathered around a man who  seemed to be severely injured.

he moved closer to check what was going on.

The injured man turned out to be Ryan Rose, the chairman of the Delvin Hub Martial Club United.

He was lying on a stretcher.

A man in his mid fifties is trying to treat him.

“The renowned head of the Grant's family and one of the nation's top is the one trying to treat him.” Liam overheard two women say.

“Joshua Grant?” the first woman asked.

“One and only.” the second woman responded

Joshua tries to administer a medicinal concoction to Ryan, Liam recognizes the mixture.

“Stop!” Liam screamed. Liam figured that the mixture would be fatal if taken into the body system.

The crowd and Joshua face him. Murmurs could be heard in their midst. "Who is he?"

They asked among themselves. 

“The concoction could be fatal.” Liam warns

“And who are you to intervene?” Heather Rose, Ryan’s daughter asked.

“Liam Miller.” he answered

“Do you realize who you are talking to?” Rose fiercely defends Joshua.

"he knows what he is doing, you should  mind your business." she said before turning back to Joshua

Joshua, confident in his knowledge, dismisses Liam’s warning and proceeds with the treatment. He turned back to Ryan and gave him the concontion to drink.

Ryan appears to improve immediately after taking the medicine, and the crowd showers Joshua with praise for his miraculously skill.

“He has done it again.” some said 

“He is so skilled…..”

After a few minutes, Ryan sat up feeling much better. He thanks Joshua for not only healing his martial arts injury but also for curing older, lingering ailments.

“Master Joshua, I owe you my life.” he  said

“Thank you very much Master. I feel so much better.” he  continued.

“I feel 18 again, even  my back bone feels renewed.” he said when realize that his old age lingering back pain is gone.

As a result, Ryan pledges to have all future injuries among his martial club members treated at Healthy Land.

“You are now Delvin hub martial club’s doctor. All injuries that occur at my club will be treated at healthy land and by Master Joshua.” he pledged

The crowd applaused and praised Joshua.

After the treatment, the crowd started to leave. 

Joshua turns his attention back to Liam.

“Young man, I see you are knowledgeable about medicine and herbs.” Joshua said

“Would you like to be an apprentice of mine?” he condescendingly offered to take him on as an apprentice at Healthy Land. 

Liam, unimpressed by Joshua’s attitude and dismissive of his offer, boldly responds with,"Are you even worthy?"

 This rude remark shocks those who are at the scene where the incident occurred.

Liam challenged the authority of a man known as one of the best doctors in the country.  

Before anyone could react, Ryan collapsed.
