Zach exhaled slowly, genuinely having no idea how to react for a brief moment. But… who could really blame him for his reaction? No matter how disciplined his bearing was, or how cold, indifferent he appeared to the world, there was one undeniable truth he could never escape. He was a man, a straight one at that. But her accusation? Zach frowned slightly, but before he could even conclude his thought… “Hm…” His eyes flashed slightly, and in the following second, he turned his head, only to see Angela slicing him with a gaze sharp enough to draw blood. Her eyes had turned icy and sharp like twin blades now, the earlier panic gone… giving way to something far more dangerous. Zach instantly understood why. He had just seen her nakedness, and even then, he showed no trace of embarrassment. She was incensed, but despite that, Zach just remained silent, not faltering in the slightest bit. If anything, he held her gaze with calm, effortless control, appearing as though nothing unusual had occurred. And seeing this… “You…!” Angela hissed, her voice trembling with barely contained rage She stared hard at Zach as though she wished nothing more than to cut him into countless shreds. She had expected him to be embarrassed and remorseful; after all, she had just caught him staring at her nakedness, but… he hadn't even faltered. If anything, he had remained calm and composed, leaving her the one flushed with embarrassment instead. The mere thought made Angela fume, wanting to explode. She wanted to question him, expecting an apology, even though it would have solved nothing. But… “You!” she spat. “What are you doing in my room?!” Her voice climbed higher with each word. “How did I become naked?!” she demanded, shifting further away defensively. “And what… what did you do to me?!” The questions came like bullets, each one slamming into Zach before he could even process the last. But Zach held her gaze, not knowing how to respond. Just as Angela finished bombarding him, however, her brows knit together, a flicker of discomfort crossing her face. In the next second, she inhaled sharply, her body tensing as she instinctively lowered her head, one hand drifting toward her lower abdomen. ‘Why… why does it hurt here?’ She wondered silently, confusion and dread intertwining in her. But just then… from the corner of her eye, she noticed the small, unmistakable stain on the bedsheet. Instantly, her heart skipped a beat, then... Her face drained of color so fast that it was terrifying. She didn’t need any explanation or confirmation. The truth had already crashed down on her all at once, brutal and unforgiving. It was… “You… you… you…” She stammered suddenly, her entire body shaking violently as she raised a finger, pointing it straight at Zach. Her eyes were wide now… not just in rage, but also in terror. Then she screamed. “Rapist!!!!” The word tore out of her throat, raw and hysterical, panic completely swallowing her whole.

Chapter 102 – Zach’s Departure
*****‘Just as I thought…’ Silas mused inwardly, his gaze lingering for the briefest moment on Patricia’s face. ‘She still loves him.’The realization settled quietly in his chest, but he didn’t voice it.Instead, his eyes drifted toward Jacob, who lay there in an unnaturally calm, almost fragile stillness… his breathing steady and expression devoid of pain for the first time since this ordeal began.For a fleeting second, Zach studied him, as though confirming something only he could see, then finally, he turned back to Patricia.“Your husband is one of the strongest people I know,” he said, his voice quiet, yet at the same time, heavy.Silence immediately fell, stretching thick and suffocating.Anita and Patricia both froze in place, their thoughts stalling as they tried to process his words.For a moment, neither of them could respond or even think, then…“So…” Anita finally began, her voice trembling.But before she could continue…“The acupuncture I just gave him is en
Chapter 101 – She Still Loves Him
*****Everyone fixed their gaze on Zach, watching him with suffocating intensity, as though even the smallest flicker across his face might reveal something about what he had seen earlier.But there was nothing. Not a twitch, a shift, or even the faintest ripple of emotion.‘Did I imagine it?’ The same uneasy thought crept through their minds, unspoken yet shared.Zach, however, offered them no room to dwell on it. The instant his eyes opened, he moved.His hand descended, and then another… needles flashing in quick succession as he began inserting them into the old man’s body.To the untrained eye, the pattern seemed chaotic and almost reckless, as though he were striking at random points without any clear method.At first, each needle drew a collective flinch from those watching. Shoulders tensed, breaths caught, and eyes tightened with every precise yet unsettling motion.But as the seconds stretched on, that instinctive fear slowly gave way to confusion.‘Is this still… a
Chapter 100 – The Treatment’s Commencement
*****Even Zach couldn’t help but falter for a split second, having clearly expected the old man to back down.As for Anita and Patricia…Patricia stared at her husband blankly, her expression lingering in disbelief before a heavy wave of weakness and exhaustion washed over her.Her shoulders sagged, and her head dropped slightly, as if even summoning her usual biting remarks required more strength than she had left.Anita, however, was the complete opposite.The moment she fully processed her father’s response, her composure shattered. Her eyes flooded with tears, and she exploded.“Come on, Father, are you this tired of living?!” she roared, her voice cracking as reason abandoned her entirely. “Why are you so selfish? Do you even think about Mother and me at all?!”Her tears spilled freely, streaming down her face like twin rivers. “Why?!” She screamed desperately, the word tearing out of her throat.A sharp flicker of pain surfaced in Jacob’s eyes.His body trembled faint
Chapter 099 – Anita’s explosion
*****Inside the cloth pouch lay roughly a hundred sharp, finely arranged needles, each seemingly crafted from a rare type of Materia and varying in both size and shape.Some were as fine as a strand of hair, while others were as thick as an adult’s pinky finger. A few were so short they were nearly invisible at a glance, while others stretched close to ten inches… about the length of a toddler’s hand.And this… was the source of Jacob, Anita, and even Patricia’s shock at this moment.For a heartbeat that dragged into eternity, all three could do nothing but stare, their gazes locked onto the needles, their skin prickling as though every hair on their bodies had risen in alarm.Then finally…“This…”Jacob swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple jerking visibly before he raised a trembling finger toward the pouch.“Young… Master,” he stammered, his voice unsteady, the fear he tried to suppress leaking through. “What… what do you plan to do with those?”Every gaze snapped toward Zach.
Chapter 098 – Anita’s Resistance
***** Patricia burst into laughter so abruptly that it shattered whatever fragile tension remained in the room. Her shoulders shook, her head tilting back slightly as though she had just been handed the most ridiculous joke in existence. “You… you are not even a certified medical practitioner, yet you want to treat someone?” she managed between breaths, her voice dripping with mockery and disbelief, each word sharper than the last. Opposite her, Anita didn’t laugh, instead; “Hmph!” She snorted coldly, the sound sharp and cutting, her entire body trembling faintly with restrained fury. Where Patricia found amusement, Anita found deep, burning, and uncontrollable offense. “Since you are not certified, how exactly do you plan on treating my father?” she demanded, her voice sharp as her eyes locked onto Zach with fierce intensity. There was something almost volatile in her gaze, a mix of desperation, anger, and disbelief that bordered on hostility And yet…
