“Young man, since I've promised you, I won't go back on my word,” Lucien broke the silence, staring at Julian.

“Here's one billion,” he continued, pulling out a card from his pocket and giving it to Julian.

“My father was already at the end of his life and would have died anyway,”

“But then I would expect you to give up your conning lifestyle and find something else, pure and legal, to do other than scamming people,”

“The only reason I'm giving you this and letting you off is that I admire your confidence and bravery,” Lucien added. At this point, his voice was extremely cold.

“Sure,” Julian chuckled lightly and collected the card from Lucien. He had really treated the old man, so there was no need for him to refuse the card.

Without any further ado, Julian made his way out of the ward.

“Don't worry, your father will wake up in about an hour from now,” Julian's voice sounded just as he was about to step out.

Marcus and the other doctors froze seeing this, as they couldn't catch up on what was happening.

Why didn't Mr. Brown punish that young man? Instead, he gave him money and let him leave.

And besides that, the young man didn't even look grateful, he sounded as though he had earned the money. Apart from that, his tone was even a bit haughty.

“Sir…”

“Beep!” The loud beeping of the monitor drowned out Marcus' voice, and all the doctors rushed to check on the old man.

Seeing the monitor reading normally proved the old man was alive. The doctors froze and, without any hesitation, started to carry out a checkup.

Soon, their expressions changed, and there was only one word on their minds.

Impossible.

Quickly, they ran it again, but it was still the same. Not believing it, they did it again, but it was still the same.

“What's happening?” Lucien finally asked, staring at the group of doctors who looked like they had seen something they were not supposed to see.

“Sir….” Marcus stuttered, his face going red in embarrassment.

“What the heck is wrong?” Lucien demanded, his voice stiff, while his gaze was extremely cold.

The heart monitor had suddenly come back to life, and from the way the doctors were frozen in shock, it could only mean his father wasn't dead.

“Sir...sir… Your father is not dead…” Marcus stuttered, trying to explain to Lucien.

“And not only that, his body is now in a perfectly healthy condition,”

“All his hidden ailments and what had caused him to be bedridden in the first place that even we had no solution against have been treated,” Marcus swallowed as he explained.

He didn't dare to lie to Lucien; that was the last thing anyone would want to do. Lie to the head of the Brown family.

Well, except if they were looking for death.

“From what I'm seeing, your father's bodily functions are even healthier than some young man who isn't half his age, and I can say he could live on for another twenty years,” Marcus concluded, swallowing and looking away from Lucien, whose expression seemed to be unreadable.

Lucien, on the other hand, felt as though Marcus's words were a clap of thunder.

What the heck was happening? Was Marcus telling the truth? Well, Marcus couldn't lie to him.

So that could be the only case. And if that was the case, then it meant that it was Julian who saved his father.

Thinking about this, a huge wave of guilt instantly washed over Lucien.

Though he hadn't insulted Julian, he didn't thank him either. He had just dismissed him, even telling him not to con people again.

As someone who had saved his father's life, this was an unacceptable attitude from him.

If his father learn of this, he would definitely cough up blood and die again. After all, his son dismissed the very man who had saved his life and even called him a con man.

“Guards!” Lucien roared furiously, coming back to his senses.

Instantly, the door of the ward was pushed open, and about ten men dressed in black rushed into the ward.

“Find the young man who just left this ward and respectfully invite him back. If he's displeased by your acts, then you can forget about living,” Lucien commanded.

“Yes sir.” The men nodded and quickly rushed out, trying to find Julian.

“And you?” Lucien turned to Marcus and the other doctors.

At the moment, they didn't even dare to look at Lucien, who was fuming with rage.

That young man was right. He could treat the old man. But why didn't they believe him?

If only they had. Thinking about this, their faces turned red from embarrassment as they didn't know what to do.

“Sir,” the guards soon came back as they walked into the ward.

“We couldn't find him anywhere in the hospital; we think he has left,” the men reported, causing Lucien's expression to darken even more.

“I don't mind how you want to do it; find that young man for me. Also, investigate and get me all of his information,” Lucien commanded, his voice cold.

“Yes sir.” The men nodded and rushed out of the ward once again to carry out Lucien's order.

“And you all,” Lucien growled, turning to Marcus and the others.

“Just pray I find that young man, else…” He threatened, his eyes narrowing into a straight line glaring at the group.

“Better pray I find him,” Lucien added and stormed out of the ward, at the same time pulling out his phone to make a call.

Marcus and the rest breathed a sigh of relief seeing Lucien leave. They could only silently pray and hope that he would find Julian.

Else they were all cooked. As for what Julian had done to the old man, they had no idea what it was.

But whatever it was, Julian was very capable, and they couldn't help but remember their cynical remarks when he was about to treat the old man.

  • An invitation

    Julian stared at the man and couldn't seem to grasp what he might be insinuating. If he could remember correctly, today was the first time he was coming across anyone from the Preston family. In fact, he never knew such a family existed. He wasn’t staying in this city and also wasn’t someone interested in a family’s history and background. “Might be a mistake. I am sure that this is the first time we are meeting each other.” Julain said casually with a smile. “Honey, do you know him from somewhere?” Fenna turned to look at Dalton, searching his face, which had a puzzled look on it. “Uhmmm,” Dalton stuttered, finding it difficult to decide. He had definitely met someone who looked like Julian; however, that person was quite older. It didn’t make sense that he was aging backwards, right? “What’s your last name?” He could only ask instead. “Eddleman,” Julian replied, curious to know where it would lead to. “Ahh, forget it. I might be mistaking you for someone else.” He waved the

  • We have met before?

    “Dad, Fenna here tried to frame Mom for poisoning Owen. I am only trying to make her confess, that’s all.” Drake said proudly and deliberately took a glance at Fenna, hinting at the kind of trouble she had brought up herself. Everyone was, in fact, pleased that Dalton was back. As the head of the family, he could pass judgment and even banish a family member. Every power still rested in his hand until he decided to pass it on. Dalton frowned when he heard this. The place had become so silent with just his footsteps echoing as he began to trot towards them. Hurriedly, Helen wanted to speak. “Honey…” However, Dalton lifted his hand, cutting her off even before she could complete her sentence. His gaze was fixed on Fenna all along; the tears streaming down her cheeks touched his heart, and he proceeded to ask after pulling the smoke pipe from his lips. “What happened?” He asked calmly. Everyone immediately frowned, including Helen. She thought he would listen to her straight away

  • I asked a fucking question

    An intense fight was about to break out. Waves had gushed around, flipping the couch ahead while some family members were almost blown off their feet. It happened so fast before anyone could even react, even though they had anticipated it. “Wait!” However, Fenna suddenly yelled in the nick of time, just when Tiger's sword had almost struck Scarface. Even though he had taken a stance, ready to tank the move, from how explosive and deadly it was, it was evident that the blow would kill him instantly. Tiger quickly halted the attack; however, the edge of the sword was so close to splitting Scarface's head in two. A few cuts had been inflicted on his face with blood pouring over even though the attack hadn’t struck deeply yet. Not only had Tiger concentrated so much of his Qi into his sword, but he also had the intention to kill Scarface on the spot. She just couldn’t allow him to kill Scarface just because of her. The man didn’t deserve to die just like that even though he was read

  • The past is the past

    Fenna never expected such a question, and what was more, aside from the witnesses, she had no proof to back up her claim. The infirmary didn’t have any cameras installed, which was why Helen had been so bold to do what she did. Fenna bit her lower lip in frustration when she noticed that, actually, the other family members had gathered to look. That was precisely why Helen said that, so she could save herself and, at the turn, make Fenna seem like the troublesome one. “It seems you don’t have proof.” Helen chided when she saw the darkened look on Fenna's face. “Tch! How bold and thick-skinned. You are pointing fingers, yet you don’t even have proof? Are you looking down on us or what?” Drake grunted, his fist tightening. “You have always wanted to kick us out of this family when we haven't done anything to you.” He added, when a thought suddenly popped into his head. “I think I know what’s going on here!” He suddenly said loudly for everyone to hear. “Me too.” Chloe also stood

  • Put on an act

    Meanwhile, in the massive living room within the mansion. Helen was seated on the couch between her kids. On her right was Drake, while on the left was Chloe. They had a keen resemblance to Helen and were very good-looking, even comparable to movie stars on TV. The trio seemed to be invested in a video playing on the phone Helen was holding. Helen had found the video very funny, so she called them over to come take a look. “Hahaha, what a loser. I was expecting much of him, though.” Drake laughed out loudly at a scene in the video that didn’t turn out to be the way he was expecting. As for Chloe, she looked a bit bored. She would have preferred to watch Korean dramas instead. She had the urge to voice out her discontent but the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard coming from a hallway. However, the trio wasn't too concerned about that until the person showed up. It was Fenna, and behind her was Scarface with a solemn expression on his face. “Hellen! How dare you try

  • You saved my son?

    Bang! Mrs. Fenna barged into the infirmary in a panic. She had been praying to the heavens to ensure she wouldn’t come to meet the worst-case scenario ever. But then, the first thing she caught was Scarface having a conversation with Randy, both of them having smiles on their faces while Julian was seated beside the lady, seemingly treating her legs with some techniques. In summary, the tension in the air was so calm, and soothing that it didn’t feel like anything bad had happened or that such a villainous woman like Helen had actually come here before. She began to doubt if what Callum told her was true; however, what reason did she have to doubt him now? He wasn’t someone who would lie to her when he knew the kind of mental pressure it would cost her. “You are back?” Julian said with a smile as he looked at her. He could already get a hint that she knew what had happened here. Someone must have told her indeed. “Your son is fine.” He added, and only then did she breathe a s
