Leonardo looked between Keith and the three mocking doctors, his desperation finally overriding his uncertainty. "I'll get the water myself."

He rushed out of the ICU, his expensive shoes clicking frantically against the hospital's polished floors. Within minutes, he returned carrying a bottle of ice-cold water that had been chilled in the medical staff's refrigerator.

"Here," Leonardo said breathlessly, handing the bottle to Keith with trembling hands. "Fresh from the refrigerator, just like you asked."

"Thank you," Keith replied calmly, accepting the bottle with steady confidence.

Dr. Morrison immediately erupted with mocking laughter. "This is insane! How can you give cold water to someone who's already shivering from hypothermia-like symptoms?"

"Look at her!" Dr. Peterson pointed at the little girl's trembling form. "She's clearly suffering from some kind of systemic shock, and you want to make her colder?"

Dr. Williams shook his head in disgust. "Keith, even a first-year medical

    Yona dropped to her knees beside Keith, clutching at his trouser leg with desperate hands. "Please, Keith! Forget about the heirloom! It's just a piece of jewelry! Your freedom is worth more than any object!""Get up, Yona!" Emilia snapped at her sister. "Stop embarrassing yourself by begging for this criminal!""I'm trying to save him!" Yona sobbed, her tears falling freely. "Keith, please listen to me! Run away right now! Leave through the back door! There might still be time!""Time for what?" Edward mocked. "The military doesn't play games, little sister. They've probably already surrounded the entire neighborhood. Your precious Keith is finished!"Keith looked down at Yona with gentle eyes. "I appreciate your concern, but I'm not going anywhere. And I'm certainly not leaving without what I came for.""You're absolutely mad!" Emilia declared, throwing her hands up in exasperation. "In my mind, you're already sitting in a prison cell wearing orange jumpsuit! Why can't you understan

    Edward's hands trembled with vindictive excitement as he grabbed his phone and dialed the military base with deliberate precision. His finger hovered over the speaker button before pressing it, ensuring everyone in the room could hear his moment of triumph."Fort Richardson Military Base, Sergeant Williams speaking," came the crisp, professional voice through the speaker."Sergeant Williams, this is Edward Richardson," Edward announced with self-important authority. "I need to report a serious criminal incident at my residence. There's an armed individual on my property who has illegally discharged a firearm and wounded multiple people.""Sir, are you currently in immediate danger?" the sergeant asked with evident concern."The situation is contained for now," Edward replied smugly, his eyes never leaving Keith's impassive face. "But this criminal is still armed and extremely dangerous. He's already shot two men in the legs and threatened my family."Keith remained perfectly still, hi

    The lead thug cracked his knuckles menacingly as he stepped forward, his eyes locked on both Keith and Yona. "Alright, boys, playtime's over. The boss wants them both taught a lesson they'll never forget.""Wait!" Yona cried desperately. "I'm part of this family! You can't hurt me!""Orders are orders, sweetheart," another thug sneered. "Your daddy said anyone who gets in the way gets the same treatment. Family or not."Keith positioned himself protectively in front of Yona, his stance relaxed but ready. "You gentlemen might want to reconsider this course of action.""Shut up and take your beating like a man!" the first thug roared, swinging a massive fist toward Keith's face.Keith caught the punch effortlessly, his grip crushing the thug's knuckles until the man screamed in agony. With a swift twist, Keith sent him flying across the room to crash into the ornate dining table."What the hell?" another thug gasped, staring at his fallen comrade. "How did he—"Keith's elbow connected w

    Yona's sobs echoed through the dining room as she maintained her protective stance in front of Keith, her small frame trembling with desperation and fear."Please, Father, I'm begging you!" Yona cried, her voice breaking with emotion. "Keith saved your life! How can you repay his kindness with violence?"Edward's face contorted with rage as he glared at his youngest daughter. "Yona, if you don't stop this pathetic display right now, I'll order these men to beat you senseless along with your precious Keith!""You wouldn't dare hurt your own daughter!" Yona gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief."Try me!" Edward snarled, his patience completely exhausted. "I am the patriarch of this family, and I will not tolerate insubordination from anyone - not even my own blood!"Emilia stepped forward with a cruel smile. "Yona, you always were the weak link in this family. Stop embarrassing yourself and get out of the way!""I won't move!" Yona declared through her tears. "If you want to hurt Keith,

    Keith slowly rose from his chair, his movements deliberate and controlled as the ten thugs closed in around him.His eyes swept the room, taking in every detail of his surroundings while maintaining an expression of calm composure."Well, this is quite the welcoming committee," Keith said quietly, his voice betraying no fear."I suppose I should thank you for the elaborate dinner setup before the main event."Edward's laughter was cruel and triumphant as he stepped closer to the circle of hired muscle."Did you really think we'd just hand over our family's most precious heirloom to a worthless blood donor like you? You always were naive, Keith."Keith took a step toward the dining room exit, but Edward's voice stopped him cold."I wouldn't try that if I were you, boy," Edward sneered, his eyes glittering with malicious satisfaction."You see, these ten gentlemen here are just the opening act. Outside, I have another ten men waiting with baseball bats, crowbars, and various other instr

    Keith's phone buzzed as he sat in his study, reviewing some documents Linda had prepared. The caller ID showed Emilia's name, and he answered with cautious interest."Keith?" Emilia's voice came through the speaker, surprisingly warm and grateful. "I wanted to call and properly thank you for what you did at the hospital today."Keith raised an eyebrow, immediately suspicious of this sudden change in tone. "Thank me? That's unexpected, Emilia. Just this morning you were calling me a fraud and a scammer.""I know, I know," Emilia laughed softly, her voice dripping with false sweetness. "I was just so stressed about Father and Laurent. I wasn't thinking clearly. The whole family feels terrible about how we treated you.""Is that so?" Keith's voice remained neutral, though his instincts were screaming warnings."Absolutely," Emilia continued enthusiastically. "In fact, we'd love to have you over for dinner tonight. The whole family wants to properly thank you and apologize for our behavio
