The arrogant cries of Joanna filled the ears of Reed plus the desperate pleas of the old man from earlier.

Just two minutes for him to die permanently. He thought as he picked on his fingers, realising how much dust he had gotten into them.

“What's your decision, young lady because you have just a half and fifty seconds?” Reed asked again while the woman looked at him with bloodshot eyes.

Then, she realized something.The rest of the family did not like her just because the man had taken a special likeness to her when her poor father- her uncle's younger brother had died.

When she grew older, he made sure she lacked nothing and even handed the company and other properties to her.

If Mr Smith Snr died now, the family would shift the blame on her and forcefully find a way to have the asset gotten from her even if she was the rightful heiress which was why she was doing everything possible to make sure the man stayed alive.

Then, she thought of this scum who had impressed her earlier. If she allowed him to heal her uncle who was obviously dying, he would definitely die finally in his arms.

Then, she can point at him as the killer while she manages to find a way to have the assets protected.

That way, they would be so focused on giving the media too much news for them to know about her next move.

Only then could she live a life full of no worries. With tears in her eyes, she nodded.

“Please heal him,” She said. After all, you're just blabbing. If my Uncle doesn't die, it's fine by me but now that he's dying, I have no choice than to make you a scapegoat.

Reed could see that her words came from a mouth that was suddenly full of deceit. However, he let go of the thought as he had the door opened to be met with the stench of a bad smell that filled his nostrils.

No wonder the man was dying. A part of his body was already decayed.

Then, Joanna hurriedly brought out her phone and went live. This could also serve as more evidence. After all, she also had her followers who would back her up.

Not wanting to alert Reed, she moved slightly away.

“Guys, my uncle is dying and some scum decided not to let me go just because he claims to be a god that would save him. If anything happens, you have him as evidence. Let's see who he is”

Instantly, her live video topped up to one thousand while she moved closer towards him.

Reed managed to find his pulse that was almost deadbeat and touched it calmly after he had successfully had his shirt ripped apart to let him work effectively.

In situations like this, he knew that addressing it aggressively would only make things worse because the man was only hanging on a thin thread.

Then, he had his eyes closed and activated one of the most fruitful healing techniques the old hag had trained him on with his bare hands and afterwards started to insert thin needles to make sure energy started to flow into his body.

Immediately, the man coughed slightly while still unconscious while Reed continued to work on his body, without saying anything.

“It seems like this man is awesome”

“What if he's legit?”

“Mr Smith who's always been bedridden just coughed. We haven't heard that in a long time!”

“Who's this incredible man?”

Joanna read in her live feed comments while a frown deepened on her face. Could it be that she had underestimated this strange man?

Instead of the people to rebuke him, it seemed as though they were praising him, wanting to also know more about him!

However, Reed who did not know all that was going on immediately stopped using acupuncture as he stretched his arms to make sure the energy circulated down his weak and stiff body that had not been moved in ages.

Only then did Joana's eyes widen to see that the body moved!

He's incredible! Her mind could not help but agree as her mouth opened on their own accord. She hadn't seen such an amazing man like him!

As much as she thought the tables would be turned, she was glad to see that things had started to take a U-turn for her uncle!

Even though the old man was still unconscious, he could sense that someone was working on his body- the same body some top doctors in the country had condemned.

Yet, he still felt weak to have his eyes opened even though subconsciously, he was okay.

Reed immediately made sure that energy surged into the last part of his body which was his eyes. Then, he was done.

“You can check on your uncle now” He muttered and looked at the sky seeing it was almost towards noon, hoping he would still be able to meet his brother not really busy.

“Has he really been healed?”

“Confirm!”

“I'm jealous”

The comments section became so hot as more reviews popped in. The moment Joanna glanced at her uncle to be sure everything was okay, he suddenly sneezed seven times and started to have a seizure causing him to tremble violently.

At once, she sensed everything was not okay. The moment he was done sneezing, his breath suddenly became unstable and almost immediately, he stopped moving.

Only then did Joanna realize that something was wrong. At once, Terror filled her eyes as she glanced at her uncle and back at the man who was already disgusting in her sight.

“What have you done to my uncle?” She screamed out.

    Seventeen hours later~“Quick! Move the safe into the booth!” Mario screamed out in an order as he watched his subordinates did as he asked but it still seemed as if it was not enough. Suddenly, it felt as if someone was watching him but no matter how much he turned, he did not seem to see anyone. “My imaginations… that sick, strange man doesn't even know where I work. All he does it bluff!” He said with a sneer as he hurriedly went ahead to help his workers pack the loads since it felt as if they were wasting so much time. Inside his exquisite workplace were expensive furnitures and materials that he didn't want to leave behind and so, he'd ordered that every single piece of items including the slightest pin be moved. As for the building, he'd made sure to have it sold the previous night which wasn't difficult for him since most people wanted his space which was situated at the outskirts of the city. “How about this, sir? We can't take it along” Fabian asked, holding a piece of i

    “Wait, what?” Mario asked in shock. He couldn't believe his ears. This wasn't the perfect ending he was expecting.What then should happen to the billion dollars he managed to swoop off the rich folks that adored him?What about his attires he usually maintained with that money? His assets? His numerous girlfriends? The people that he used money to oppress?How would he explain to everyone that he became a poor man just within a twinkle of an eye? All this is just because he is a follower of a strange man people would not even believe? Why on earth did he show himself to such a man? “Yes. That's my final decision” Reed replied him curtly with a cold smile that sent a shiver down his spine. “But…. It's what I've gathered all these while. My sweat and..““Do I need to remind you that you cheated a lot of people to get attain that position you are right now? How about I start with that?”A cold sweat formed at the corner of Mario's right face as his hands trembled. He knew what would

    “Your boss?” Fabian asked with a stutter as he looked at Reed. It was that moment he realized how extremely bad he just made the situation become. “Yes, you idiot! And don't you ever refer to him as an ordinary person or else, you will cease to be my assistant!” But how could someone like this man be his boss? Didn't he know how embarrassing this situation seemed?Fabian asked. Then, he watched his boss’s lips curve into a light smile as he focused on the man. Something he hadn't don't to him for years. “Sir… do you know me?” He asked again. “I know who you are. You work directly for the gang Ruckus that go about stealing from people. I thought I told him and his gangs to stop but they didn't. Now, I wonder how exactly I should punish you for scamming people”A cold shiver ran down Mario's spine the moment he heard that. Why would their boss Ruckus rat them out? Had he perphas made a mistake by making himself known to their real boss?He thought as he cleared his throat and looked

    Almost immediately, a thought ocuured to Fabian. If these silly people he called guards could not defeat Reed, he would call his boss who would definitely show up with about fifty million squads. Then, Fabian turned around. His heart skipped multiple beats at once when he realized that people were staring at him. He knew that if he did not hurriedly defeat this man, words would go to many places that he had probably lost his sense of reasoning and could not stand a pauper!At once, he dialled his bosss’ contact with mixed reactions. He knew his boss would tell and tackle him because he was not able to get a man below his status down. At least, that was better than there people who held him in high esteem judge him!“Hello, Sir Mario!” Sir Mario? That sounded very familiar! Reed thought as he took a closer glance on the Ruby as if he had not seen it before. However, he was only trying to check if it was not contaminated during the process of snatching it from him by Fabian. Intentio

    “He better be taught a lesson that this isn't a calibre of his people!” Anna replied with contempt. At the other end of the hall was Reed. Within him, he was being calculative. He knew that these people could not stand a chance with him when it came to power. However, something bothered him. Among the men they sent over to fight him was a particularl man he was not sure he could contend with in power because he did not have the inner depth energy to fight him because of how drained he was. In one of the teachings of Xavier, he'd warned him never to fight off people he was not sure because it not only would drain him, it could take so long before he got his powers restored back. Then, Reed smiled coldly at the thought of something. His fingers fisted almost immediately. If he could not fight him with his energy, he definitely could manipulate his mind using the Quarter’s energy. At once, he completely compelled his mind under a special spell using his eyes while the man he thought

    “How did I not see the beauty in this?” A cold stern looking man asked as he observed the natural ruby. For a start, he was known as Fabian- the greatest naturalist’s assistant. They went about gathering a lot of natural valuables and craft them into something else- more like fake to sell to rich people. However, they were too naive to understand that whatever he and his boss sold were just not original and hence, they took the original ones to themselves. On seeing the treasure in Reed's hands, he could not help but want it. At first, he'd called the person who auctioned the natural ruby. However, the man claimed to have sold the last piece to the bidder earlier who turned out to be Reed. Hence, he could not let go of it. Fabian was sure that if he brought the ruby to his boss, there would be great reward for him. After all, he and his boss did not seem to be on good terms for a while now because they had internal issues. “Boy, let me have this. I will pay you a million dollars”
