Upon hearing what Serenity just said.

Elvis Immediately raised an eyebrow. “Alternative methods?”

Without wasting any more time She tilted her head slightly, her expression unreadable. “Their phones, their movements—everything can be monitored. If they’ve had contact with him, it will leave a trace and I'm going to get it.”

At that moment Elvis frowned, the hint of unease flickering in his eyes.

“You’d go that far?”

Serenity’s gaze remained fixed on him, unwavering. “This isn’t just about finding a healer,” she said firmly. “It’s about understanding who he is, what he’s capable of, and why he’s remained hidden. If I have to cross a few lines to get those answers or get him to treat me grandfather, then so be it.”

At that moment the car grew quiet again, the weight of her words settling over them. Elvis knew better than to argue. Serenity’s determination was unyielding, and once she set her sights on something, there was little anyone could do to stop her.

    The corridor leading to the main hall was filled with an air of anticipation, whispers following the commanding presence of Serenity as she walked with Dr Elvis, and her entourage. Heads turned, eyes filled with awe and respect, but no one dared to meet her gaze directly.Except Damien.He spotted her ahead, her figure unmistakable, flanked by two towering bodyguards. While others instinctively moved aside, bowing their heads or stepping back, Damien didn’t falter. He kept his stride steady, his expression calm, as though he were simply walking toward his next destination.Upon seeing Damien walking forward her direction Serenity sharp eyes caught sight of him, her brows lifting ever so slightly at his indifference.She knew only few men could maintain such composure in her presence, and she wasn’t accustomed to being treated so casually by Damien, after everything he has done she couldn't believe he still has the guts to show his face again.At that moment her lead bodyguard, a tow

    Seeing what was happening Serenity watched the scene unfold from a distance, her sharp gaze fixed on Damien. She crossed her arms, her posture exuding quiet confidence, but internally, her thoughts were anything but neutral.“Here we go again,”she mused, her lips pressing into a faint smirk.“Always in the middle of something, always scheming.”She had seen enough of Damien to form her own conclusions. To her, he was nothing more than a cunning opportunist, someone who knew how to manipulate people, and situations to his advantage. The way he had navigated the Ryan's family and collected the exclusive card in the process only fueled her belief that he thrived on clever deceptions.And now, with Mr. Leo standing before him, Serenity couldn't help but scoff inwardly. Without being told she could tell he was up to something again, and from the look of things Mr. Leo is falling into his tricks.At that moment She observed Mr. Leo’s cautious demeanor, the way he seemed to tread lightly a

    As the tense atmosphere lingered in the room even more, Dr.Elvis saw this as an opportunity to prove his worth towards serenity.Without wasting any more time he stepped forward, his calm demeanor and sharp eyes giving him an air of quiet authority. He glanced at Serenity, silently aligning himself with her stance, before addressing Sophia’s family directly.“I understand your hesitation,” Dr.Elvis began, his voice measured and deliberate. “You’re protecting someone who has done a great service for your family, and that’s commendable. But think about the opportunities you’re passing up.”Hearing what Dr.Elvis just said.Sophia’s father shifted uncomfortably, his hands clasped tightly in front of him. “Opportunities?” he asked cautiously, his voice betraying his unease.Immediately Elvis nodded. “If you reveal the identity of this mysterious healer, you wouldn’t just be helping Serenity achieve her goals—you’d also be securing a valuable ally for yourselves. With just one call, I w

    The room erupted in chaos as Sophia’s grandfather’s face turned ashen, his hand trembling on the head of his cane. “Michael!” he roared, his voice strained yet furious. “How dare you make such a decision on behalf of this family!”However Michael flinched but stood his ground. “Grandfather, I’m only trying to protect us—”“Protect us?” the old man spat, his voice rising. “You’re throwing away everything we stand for! Do you understand what you’re risking, you're a disgrace to this family?”Immediately he pointed at him.“I forbid you to say anymore words.”Seeing the deadly look on his grandfather's face and his words.He understands what it means.And he wouldn't want to cross the line.The strain in his voice echoed through the room, his fury palpable. Suddenly, he doubled over, clutching his chest, his face contorting in pain. At that moment a harsh, wet cough escaped his lips, and to everyone’s horror, flecks of blood stained his hand.“Grandfather!” Sophia said, rushing to

    Hearing Mr.Leo's wife's threatening words, Damien didn't say anything but continued walking closer to the boy.However Mr. Leo stood by the door, his arms crossed tightly as he watched Damien approach the bedside. Though his expression was calm, the tension in his shoulders betrayed the storm of doubt and desperation raging inside him.For some reason he was having a second thought, he wasn't sure if Damien could actually save his son. At that moment his gaze flickered to his wife, who sat silently by their son’s side, her eyes red from exhaustion and worry.‘I don’t know if this will work,’ Mr Leo said to himself, His jaw tightened with frustration, he knows full well what his wife would do to him if for some reason something happened to their son now. His voice was low, almost hesitant. ‘But we’ve tried everything else. We’ve seen some of the best doctor's, and none of them could even give us answers, it wouldn't be bad to try at least in this situation we have nothing to lose.

    At that moment Mr Leo stepped forward, placing a reassuring hand on his wife's shoulder. “Honey, I know you're worried, not just you, I'm worried too, we have tried to get the help of professionals but none of them seems to understand what was wrong. But Dr. Damien's situation is different, and we don’t have another choice,” he said softly, his own voice laced with exhaustion. “We’ve tried everything else. Let him try.”“But—” she began, her voice rising with desperation.“No,” Mr Leo said, cutting her off gently but firmly he couldn't bring him to say their son would still die regardless of the pill or not. “We have to trust him.”Upon hearing what her husband just said.Without being told she could tell his decision has been made.Her shoulders sagged, the fight draining out of her as she sank back into her chair. “If anything happens to my son…” she muttered, unable to finish the sentence.Mr Leo at that moment couldn't just fold his arms anymore, without taking action, he be

    After saving Mr.Leo son, the herb promised was given to him.He couldn't help but feel relieved.knowing he has added one more to the ten herbs he added to get.Without being told he was well aware the sooner he gets all ten the better.Leaving Mr.Leo and home.As Damien approached the entrance to his villa, he noticed something unusual. The usually quiet street was now teeming with tension. Black SUVs were parked haphazardly, their headlights cutting through the twilight, while armed guards formed a perimeter around the area. The faint hum of communication devices and the occasional barked orders filled the air.Seeing what is happening Damien slowed his steps, his sharp eyes scanning the scene.At that moment a guard stepped forward, raising a hand to halt him. “Sir, this area is under lockdown,” the guard said curtly. “For your safety, we ask that you turn back.”However Damien couldn't get his head around everything, knowing it was his house he couldn't just leave without not kn

    At that moment Damien’s gaze swept over the fugitive; he didn't notice the herb with him, and where he kept the herb was still safe. However the fugitive stance was steady, his grip strong. The man exuded danger, the kind that came from years of training and countless battles. This was the same fugitive Serenity and her team were outside preparing to confront—a man feared for his skill and brutality.However Damien remained unfazed.“That’s my property you’re standing in,” Damien said calmly, his voice like steel wrapped in silk. “Drop the knife, and I might let you leave alive.”Upon hearing what Damien just said.The fugitive sneered, tightening his hold on the child. “You’re in no position to make threats,” he spat. “I’ve taken down people ten times stronger than you. Don’t test me.”At that moment Damien’s eyes narrowed slightly. “I wasn’t asking.”The fugitive’s instincts screamed at him to act, first seeing Damien he could tell he's just a nobody Perhaps a rich kid with a big

    At that moment, Damien stood up slowly from his chair.The faint sound of the legs scraping against the hospital floor echoed sharply in the thick silence. His movements were calm, composed—but anyone watching closely could feel the storm brewing underneath his stillness.He tucked his hands into his pockets and glanced at the people standing before him, one after the other, his gaze cold and distant, almost as if he was looking through them rather than at them.“I've kept quiet long enough,” Damien said, his voice steady, but edged with a sharpness that couldn't be missed. “And frankly, it seems I'm just wasting my time with irrelevant noise.”The temperature in the room seemed to drop by a few degrees. No one dared to interrupt.Then Damien took a slow step forward, speaking with a chilling clarity, every word landing with precision.“I'm not the kind of person who seeks the downfall of others. I'm not the kind of person who finds joy when others are crying or broken,” he said, his

    At that moment, Sophia, her grandfather, and her father were frozen in place.None of them could speak. None of them could even breathe properly.It was as if the world had tilted slightly off balance—watching, hearing, sensing the storm that was quietly brewing inside this single hospital room. Everything they thought they knew had been shaken in seconds, leaving them only with the sharp sting of reality. They were just there, stiff and confused, staring as the scene unfolded before them.Winston’s father stepped forward, anger rolling off him in waves.“This is the man,” he growled, pointing a thick finger directly at Damien. “Serenity, don’t waste time. Arrest him immediately! He’s the one. I’m very, very sure!”The room held its breath, all eyes shifted to Serenity.For a moment, she said nothing. Her sharp, calculating gaze locked onto Damien, studying him with chilling calmness. Her posture was straight, her expression unreadable, but the atmosphere around her grew colder by the

    Her question was directed at Winston's father, who stood with grief etched into every line of his face. His eyes never left Damien as he gave a slow, deliberate nod.“Yes,” he said, his voice thick with conviction. “That is the same person. I would recognize him anywhere.” His fists clenched at his sides, knuckles white with tension. “I am very, very sure.”The weight of his certainty hung in the air, choking any protest Sophia might have formed. She glanced at Damien, searching his face for some reaction—denial, shock, anything that might suggest innocence—but his expression remained carefully controlled, only the slight tightening around his eyes betraying any emotion at all.Whisting's father stepped forward, his face contorted with desperation and rage. His finger remained pointed at Damien, trembling with the force of his accusation.“He has been the one having issues with Whisting ever since the beginning,” he spat, voice breaking. “And I am very, very sure that he is also the

    At that moment the room fell silent as the door swung open. Three men in dark suits entered, their expressions grim and purposeful. But it was the figure who followed them that caused the air to freeze in Sophia's hospital.Serenity.The war goddess herself had come, her presence filling the modest room with an almost palpable energy. Golden armor award gleamed beneath a flowing white cloak, her raven hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall of night. Her eyes—ancient and piercing—surveyed the room with cold calculation.Sophia's grandfather's eyes widened immediately. His weathered hands trembled as he placed it on the coffee table, eyes wide with disbelief.“Impossible,” he whispered, half-rising from his armchair.Sophia's mother gripped the edge of the chair, her knuckles white. “What... what is happening?” she managed, her voice barely audible.But it was Sophia's father whose reaction told the most frightening story. The color drained from his face as if someone had p

    That was the only thought he could cling to now—the only thread of hope dangling in his mind. Serenity. Yes, Serenity would do something. She had to. She could still speak on their behalf. She had influence. If she could put in a good word before the Supreme King, perhaps the door to power wasn’t completely shut. Perhaps they hadn’t lost everything.But even that hope couldn’t wash away the sour sting of disgrace.Because as he stood there, shame gnawed at his chest like a silent storm. Damien—this same boy he had looked down on, dismissed, insulted—had become their savior. Not only had he exposed the very monsters they once trusted… he had also saved Sophia.And now… he was standing right there.A few feet away. Calm. Composed. Not angry, not proud. Just… present. And that alone made it worse. The old man couldn’t even raise his head. He felt it deep in his bones—the weight of having sold out Damien’s heart, dismissed his worth, only for that same heart to carry his family through th

    At that moment Sophia’s father stepped forward, his face twisted with disbelief.“That’s not even true,” he said, shaking his head. “London? No—London would never do something like that. You must be mistaken.”Immediately Clarissa nodded quickly, almost too quickly. “Exactly. London? Kidnap you? Torture you? That doesn’t even sound like him.”“I’ll call him right now,” her grandfather added, already reaching for his phone. “I’ll ask him myself. If this is what you’re claiming, then let me hear it from his own mouth.”But Sophia didn’t flinch. She simply looked at her grandfather, her lips trembling. Her eyes held the kind of pain that didn’t come from physical wounds, because she couldn't believe they would refused to listen to her own side of the story without calling London to confirm.“You can’t call him,” she whispered.At that moment her voice was too low, too calm.Immediately they all looked at her.“London is dead.”The words fell like a blade.Her grandfather father’s hand fr

    The sharp slam of the door was still echoing when Sophia’s heart sank.Her breath caught in her throat. She already knew.She didn’t need to guess. The second she heard the footsteps, the rustle of expensive fabric, the weighty silence followed by a familiar scoff—it was enough.Her eyes slowly shifted toward the doorway, and there they were.Her grandfather entered first, tall and stern as ever, his walking stick hitting the tiles with cold authority. Behind him, her father, Mr. Callum, stood with a deep frown, arms folded tightly across his chest. And then… her mother—Clarissa Callum, perfectly dressed as if she hadn’t just stormed into a hospital room, her expression twisted with a mix of panic, rage, and exhaustion.Sophia’s body stiffened beneath the bedsheets.Clarissa didn't wait.“You see? You see what you’ve done to yourself?” her mother snapped, her voice slicing through the air. “We warned you, Sophia! Didn’t we warn you?!”Sophia didn’t respond. Her fingers tightened aroun

    At that moment the bitterness in his tone cracked through.However Serenity didn’t respond. Her gaze was locked on her phone. Calm. Controlled. Almost too calm.That silence unnerved him.And at that point Winston father phone started ranging.Immediately his wise turned deadly when he saw who was calling.“Why is he calling him?” he asked sharply, though he already knew.They must have something on Damien.They weren’t just trying to reach him.Winston’s father answered the call, his tone sharp and expectant.“What is it?”A calm voice came through the receiver. “We’ve seen him, sir. Damien. He’s at Vespera Medical, alone. Fourth floor. Private wing.”For a second, Winston’s father didn’t blink. The words echoed in his ear like the sound of a loaded gun being cocked. Then, slowly, a wicked smile stretched across his face.“Very good,” he said, hanging up without another word.He turned to Serenity, who was still fuming from everything she'd just said about her grandfather, her engag

    Upon hearing Serenity’s quiet confession, Winston’s father tilted his head slightly, surprise flickering across his face. His brows drew together, the weight of confusion pressing deeper. “What do you mean it’s your fault?” he asked, his tone more curious than accusatory. “What exactly happened that would make your father—your own grandfather—not want to see even you?”Then Serenity exhaled softly, her fingers curling around each other in front of her. Her gaze dropped for a second, as if grounding herself before revealing what had clearly haunted her.“It’s about the one who treated him,” she began. “The miraculous doctor apprentice.”Winston’s father remained still, listening.“He… he was actually the one grandfather betrothed me to,” she said slowly. “And I… I chased him away. More than once.” Her voice thinned with guilt. “I insulted him. I doubted him. I accused him of things I didn’t understand... and the last time I saw him, it was on a cold evening.”She paused, swallowing ba
