CHAPTER 62 - UNKNOWN MESSAGE
Minerva's expression hardened with indignation as she retrieved her phone and dialed her lawyer's number. She had tolerated years of agonizing pain, endured countless medical examinations, and swallowed an assortment of medications under the assumption that the professionals entrusted with her health were genuinely attempting to save her.The call connected almost at once."Good day, ma'am. How may I assist you?" Christopher greeted her."Good day, Christopher. I want you to initiate legal proceedings against Dr. Lilian Richard of Sinclair Imperial Medical Center," Minerva instructed, her voice frigid with determination. "I have reason to believe that he has been prescribing fraudulent medication under the pretense of treating my illness. I want his conduct thoroughly investigated, and I want the hospital held accountable for any complicity in this deception."There was no hesitation in her voice. Years of suffering had already cost her enough, and she had no intention of a
CHAPTER 61 - LAB RAT
Minerva retrieved her phone and dialed Dr. Richard’s number, allowing it to ring for several minutes before he finally answered.“Good day, Miss Minerva. How may I be of assistance?” the doctor greeted her, his voice carrying its usual professional cordiality.“Good day, Dr. Richard. I want you to send me my complete medical records, beginning from the year I commenced treatment at your hospital. I want every document pertaining to my diagnosis, prescriptions, and subsequent medical examinations.”There was a brief but noticeable silence on the other end of the line.Dr. Richard’s fingers tightened around his phone as apprehension crept into his expression. “Miss Minerva, is there a problem? May I ask why you suddenly require your medical records?”Minerva’s expression hardened.“Dr. Richard, I don't recall asking for your opinion. I simply want my medical records. Whatever reason I have for requesting them is a personal matter, and I expect you to respect that.”Her voice was cold, h
CHAPTER 60 - MINERVA'S ILLNESS
It had been twenty-four hours since Minerva was brought to Valerian's room, and throughout that period, Reyna had made several visits to check on her condition. Valerian, on the other hand, had remained attentive to her recovery, regularly burning Cliwood leaves to help regulate her breathing and prevent another episode from taking hold. Although Minerva had finally stabilized, her body remained weakened by the debilitating effects of Ashraven Degenerative Syndrome.The following morning, while Valerian was in his room, the butler walked in and bowed politely."Good morning, sir. Someone is here to see you. According to him, he has a package to deliver."Valerian raised his head, a slight frown creasing his forehead. He wasn't expecting anyone, and the unexpected delivery stirred his curiosity at once."Who is it?" he asked."He didn't provide much information, sir. He only said he was sent by his employer."Valerian rose from his seat and made his way downstairs to see the vis
CHAPTER 59 - THE ATTACK
Valerian's eyes flickered across his phone screen, and a frown creased his forehead when he saw Reyna's name. He slid his finger across the screen and brought the phone to his ear."Yes, I can hear you.""Please, I need you to come to the company right away," Reyna said urgently. "Madam Minerva is having one of her episodes, and this time, it's quite severe."Before Valerian could ask a single question, the call abruptly ended.He stared at the screen for a moment before shutting his eyes, an inexplicable sensation tightening in his chest. He couldn't quite understand why the news unsettled him, especially when Minerva had been deliberately avoiding him lately."Please, take a turn and head to Vallencourt Company," he instructed the taxi driver.Meanwhile, Minerva sat among the board members in the conference room, her gaze fixed on the presentation displayed on the screen before her. One of the executives was explaining the figures, outlining the company's latest projections and prop
CHAPTER 58 - ONE STEP CLOSER
"It's completely normal. Don't panic," Valerian said, unfazed.As he had anticipated, Kael was expelling the toxic substance that had accumulated in his body. The black liquid was evidence of how severely the poison had affected him, but the fact that his body was reacting to the treatment gave Valerian hope that he hadn't arrived too late.Anthony crouched beside his son, his face contorted with anxiety as he watched the horrifying spectacle. Kael continued vomiting, expelling a considerable quantity of black liquid that splashed onto the floor."Is he going to remain like this?" Anthony asked, his voice trembling with apprehension. "Look at how much he's vomiting!""Just a few more minutes. It will stop soon," Valerian assured him, his attention fixed on Kael.Gradually, the boy's appearance began to change. His previously pallid complexion regained some color, and the hollow look that had made him appear so terribly ill started to fade. Even as he continued vomiting, there were not
CHAPTER 57 - THE HEIDDEN POISON
"What do you mean?" Anthony asked, clearly dumbfounded. His brows furrowed as he stared at Valerian, struggling to comprehend the revelation."You're telling me my son has been poisoned? How is that even possible? He's been under medical supervision for three years, and not a single doctor discovered anything!"Valerian offered no immediate explanation. Instead, his eyes swept across the room, scrutinizing his surroundings with an intensity that suggested he was searching for something specific.If Oakplum was responsible for the boy's deteriorating condition, there was a possibility that its source was somewhere within the estate.He rose from the bed and walked toward the back of the door, examining the area before moving toward the window. His gaze traveled across the furniture and decorations, searching for anything that appeared suspicious or out of place.Then, his eyes settled on the table.A faint smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. Flowers.Several arrangements of beautif
