"Young Master, my only daughter was born sick, and now it's worse."

Alfred's eyes filled with sorrow, "She's in pain every day. I've seen every doctor, spent a fortune, tried everything—nothing helps. She's only getting worse. Please, help her. I'll do anything."

Alex gazed at him calmly.

"I'll meet your daughter tomorrow."

Alfred was stunned.

He hadnt expected His Highness would agree to lend a helping hand so easily.

He grabbed Alex's hand, bowed in gratitude.

"Thank you, my lord!"

He whispered, his words heavy with all he felt.

Previously, Alfred hadn’t believed his luck when his leader mentioned Alex's visit to Vancouver.

Albert wasnt entirely sure who Alex was.

However, what he was certain was even his leader must kneel before Alex!

If Alexs was displeased, millions of lives could vanish.

But if he was satisfied, even the dying could live!

As the head of the Kingswell organization in Vancouver, Albert had heard the rumors.

About a high-ranking figure known as "God’s Hand," the disciple of the Immortal Sage.

Even the dying could be healed by his touch.

So he had done everything to ensure Alex would be satisfied.

"Young Master," Alfred asked, "I heard you’re on an important mission. Tell me how I can assist. In Vancouver, nothing is beyond your reach. If you command right, even the government won't go left."

I do indeed need your help, Alex said.

He had three critical tasks ahead.

"Find someone for me.”

"I don’t have a name, just a nickname. They call him ‘Jo.’ No picture either."

When he was younger, he had ended up on the streets in Vancouver, only to flee from danger.

The one with the nickname “Jo” was the person who had helped him out.

He needed to find him, and to repay the kindness he had received.

"Your wish is my command," Alfred obediently bowed.

“Is that all?”

Alex nodded.

He had two other tasks here: one was to meet his fiancée, and the other was to uncover his origin.

However, for the former, there was no need for Albert's involvement.

Regarding the latter, it could only be addressed after finding Jo.

“Young Master,” Albert began cautiously, “when a high-ranking Kingswell member visits, I’m supposed to organize a banquet, invite the city's elite, top businessmen, top actresses, politicians, and I have prepared…”

He watched Alex's face as he explained.

But when he noticed a slight furrow in Alexs brow, he quickly adjusted.

“But since you're incognito, you’d prefer to skip the banquet, correct?”

Alex nodded with a smile.

“I’ll cancel it immediately, then,Alfred responded immediately

Always remember, no need for such a fuss,” Alex command.

Alfred bowed in acknowledgement.

He clearly understood why Alex needed to keep a low profile.

Alex was a man with the title of "God’s Hand."

Of the thousand patients he had ever touched, none remained uncured.

He was also the direct disciple of the Immortal Sage, who was said to be able to bring the dead back to life in the blink of an eye!

If Alex revealed his identity, people around the world would surround him and not give him any peace.

Parting with Alfred, Alex stepped out and called a taxi, giving him an address.

His had to meet with his fiancée.

His master said that woman was his fate, written in the Akashic Record, and she was also the key for Alex in finding his mother in the future.

An hour later, Alex arrived on West 4th Avenue in West Vancouver, an affluent neighborhood with ocean views, mountain backdrops, and multi-million-dollar estates.

As he reached for the gate’s bell, a luxury car pulled up.

The driver stepped out, and their eyes locked.

Both, surprised, spoke at once, "You!"

“What are you doing here?” they both exclaimed, overlapping.

Sophia’s eyes narrowed.

“Don’t tell me you’re stalking me now.”

Alex raised an eyebrow. “Stalking you? I have better things to do.”

“Of course,” Sophia shot back, arms crossed.

“I suppose you’re here to beg for money. Should’ve known you’d stoop that low.”

“Money? I don’t need your charity,” Alex retorted.

“I’m here for something more important.”

Sophia didnt believe a single word of Alexs.

Her voice dripped with sarcasm.

“Another scheme? Trying to marry into wealth, maybe?”

“You think I’m after your money?” Alex replied coldly. “Youre completely wrong, then. I want nothing from you.”

“Good!” Sophia snapped, her anger rising.

“Because I have nothing to give, especially not to you.”

Alex frowned.

If it wasnt because of his help, she would have been abused by who knew whom, or even worse, died beneath a random bastard's groin.

Sophia glared at him one last time before turning on her heel and driving through the automatic iron gate, leaving Alex alone on the pavement.

He checked the address in his hand.

This was indeed his fiancée’s house, arranged by his master, the Immortal Sage.

He had no choice but to move forward and meet his fiancée.

Whether that woman was truly her or not remained unclear.

The mansion loomed before him, grand and imposing.

His fiancée could be anyone—maybe even that woman’s sister.

Thinking of how he had slept with his fiancée's sister, Alex mused with a bitter smile, “Yeah, everything just keeps getting better.”

    Previously, while Alex was still trapped in the prison cage, Major General Marcus Hale sat comfortably in his Chicago office, enjoying a cigar when his phone rang.He picked it up casually."Laura Montclair," Marcus drawled with a lazy smirk. "You wanted this Alex guy dead, right? Consider it done. Mind telling me again who exactly he is?""He's just some nobody doctor running a tiny clinic in a Vancouver slum," Laura said coldly. "Nothing to worry about."Marcus chuckled, exhaling a slow stream of smoke."I’ve wiped out thousands like him—he’ll vanish, no question. But…" He smirked, voice dropping into a darker tone."If you give me another night like last week, I might even take my time. Drag it out. What do you say?""Perfect," Laura shot back coldly. "I was craving that too."The line went dead.Barely moments later, the phone rang again. Marcus frowned when he saw the caller ID."Governor Tom Jones?

    At the Kingston government office, the phone rang sharply, cutting through the heavy silence.Jasmine lifted the receiver without breaking her stride. “Jasmine here.”“Jasmine, we have a situation!” Kelly's voice burst out, urgent and tense.She paused, her brow furrowing. “What's happened?”“Alex has been arrested by the Chicago military!” Kelly swiftly recounted the details, her voice clipped and precise.As Jasmine listened, her expression darkened, eyes narrowing with every word.“Using the Chicago military to snatch him? Whoever orchestrated this has serious connections.”“Jasmine, I bet it’s one of the Chicago Lords flexing their muscle—probably the Jones family,” Kelly growled.“Yesterday Alex tore through the Jones' estate, crippled Tom's son, all to protect you. They won't let that slide.”“It definitely smells like the Jones' handiwork,” Jasmine said grimly.“But Tom alone couldn’t summon military power. Another Lord must be backing him.”“I'm mobilizing Vermont’s military i

    Lyra stormed out into the open, chased closely by Sophia.“Lyra! What the hell are you doing to Laura? I've never seen you like this before!”Sophia had known Lyra for years. She'd always seemed kind, gentle even. This ruthless side was completely new and terrifying.Ignoring Sophia, Lyra walked toward a nearby pond, plunging her blood-stained hands into the water.She watched the blood swirl away and muttered, "You don't really know me, Sophia."She moved slowly to a bench beneath a tree, pulled out a cigarette, and lit it.“You told me you'd quit!” Sophia said, voice trembling with disappointment.“I did quit,” Lyra exhaled sharply, blowing smoke into the sky.“Three whole years. But today I broke it. I need this, Sophia.”Sophia stared in disbelief, struggling to find words. “How—how can you shoot people like this?”Lyra shrugged, her tone cool and distant. “I practice at a shooting range. I have licenses for all my guns.”“You kill people, Lyra!” Sophia shouted, her voice cracking

    “You want me to heal your husband, and yet you dare threaten me?”Alex laughed bitterly, shaking his head. “You've got to be joking.”Laura's eyes darkened, venom lacing every word. “You’re like someone who needs to see their own coffin to realize they're dying.”“Fine. If you won’t save him now, mark my words—when you're on your knees, bleeding, bones shattered, begging for mercy—it’ll be too late. This is your final chance to reconsider before things get ugly.”Alex met her fury with a calm defiance.“Sorry, not interested.” He turned sharply toward the exit.Just then, chaos erupted near the hospital’s entrance. All heads snapped up as a military vehicle roared into view, skidding to a halt.The soldiers leapt out, fully armed, their faces grim and lethal. People scattered, a path clearing as if by instinct alone.Sophia’s eyes widened in shock. “The military? Here? Are they arresting someone?”Laura smirked wickedly. “Alex, this is your very last chance.”Lyra shot a glare at Laura

    Laura’s face twisted in rage. Without hesitation, she swung her hand, landing a fierce slap across the doctor’s face.“What kind of worthless bastard calls himself a doctor, yet sends my husband home just to wait for death?” she screamed, her voice shaking with fury.Dr. Peter stood frozen, stunned. One of Vermont's finest doctors had just been humiliated by this woman.“Listen carefully, woman,” he snarled bitterly.“Your husband will die. Nothing on earth can save him now, not even your parade of second opinions. Frankly, with a venomous wife like you, it’s no wonder he’s headed to an early grave.”Laura exploded, her voice cracking with raw fury.“What the hell did you just say to me? You dare sentence my husband to death and blame me for it? Are you begging to die?”The assistants quickly stepped forward, forming a barrier around Dr. Peter, terrified by Laura’s wild wrath.“Guards!” Laura roared. “Beat them! Break every damn bone in their bodies!”“Yes, Ma’am!” Two guards surged fo

    Lyra stood by, eyes fixed anxiously on Laura Montclair. "Calm down. He'll be here.""Calm down? Have you seen the time? What’s going to happen to my husband?" Laura's voice echoed harshly through the hospital room, desperation cracking her tone.Lyra clenched her fists, fighting the urge to snap. "If you can't stop screaming at me, maybe you should find yourself another doctor."Laura shot Lyra a venomous glare."Listen carefully. The only reason you're even here is because your father and my husband were once best friends. You should be thanking me for this opportunity.”“Remember Lyra, I could open doors you couldn't even dream of."On the hospital bed, Rudiyard moaned loudly, gripping his head in agony."It feels like my head is splitting open!"Laura rushed to his side, gently squeezing his hand. "Hang in there, honey. The best doctor is coming. He’ll make this right, I promise."No one could explain Rudiyard’s sudden collapse a week earlier or the constant, relentless headaches e
