Everyone started panicking when they witnessed his dismissive attitude. A short plump lady rolled her
sleeves and stomped toward Skylar. “Listen up, pretty boy. You must treat my son today, or else, I’ll
make sure you and Yulia will not step out of this place alive.”
When Dianne noticed the woman approaching Skylar, she rushed forward and kicked her away. The
poor woman was thrown 20 feet in the air. She collapsed to the ground, clutching her stomach with an
anguished expression.
No one knew that Dianne had a short black dagger. She wielded the dagger in her right hand and
gracefully struck the floor with a ring of sound. Sparks flew as she started carving on the hard wooden
floor. Two seconds later, a 13-foot line appeared on the floor. It was not very long as Dianne had carved
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe line without moving an inch. However, everyone’s attention was drawn to the depth of the line. It
was seven inches deep! Carving such depth with a short dagger would require incredible strength and
skill.
Dianne raised her dagger and announced to the rowdy crowd, “Anyone who dares cross this line shall
face my dagger.” Her threatening words sent shivers up their spines. They remained silent because
they were afraid to confront Dianne.
The protestors had initially found strength in numbers and intended to harass Yulia. However, they
knew better than to use the same tactic on Dianne. The latter could simply disable them or, worse, end
their lives with a single swift move of her dagger.
While the troublemakers were still trying to calm their nerves, Skylar led Yulia to the lift lobby. They only
realized the man was gone after he had disappeared around the corner.
The crowd shouted, “Hold on, God of Medicine! We’re sorry for the poor attitude earlier. Please, I beg
you to help us!” However, Skylar paid no heed to their pleas and accompanied Yulia to the lift. Only
then did they realize that Skylar was not playing hard to get; he had no intention of treating them.
Their cries grew more desperate. “Please forgive us, God of Medicine. Don’t leave us alone!”
A woman got to her knees and sobbed, “I confess that someone ordered us to cause trouble. I have
never used Kareem Fashion’s skincare products before. Mr. Chase is behind all these. He told us to
make the accusations!”
Another added, “We did this out of desperation, God of Medicine. We don’t have any money for
treatment! Please help us! We want to live!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe protestors were conflicted about Skylar’s refusal to treat them, even though he had the ability to do
so. All they intended was to earn some money to pay for their treatments. Instead, they witnessed an
end-stage stomach cancer patient’s complete recovery. This set fire to their desire to live, which
eventually turned into desperation when Skylar refused to lend a helping hand. They were filled with
torturous pain and agony when the man was unmoved by their pleas.
Skylar scoffed inwardly, the troublemakers would never succumb if I had not shown my extraordinary
medical skills. They’ll never be willing to apologize for their mistakes. I gave them a chance to repent
earlier. It’s their fault for failing to seize the opportunity. How dare they try to smear Yulia and threaten
me! They can’t blame me for being ruthless.
“Harry Chase?” Skylar raised a brow, his face hardened as he learned who was behind the incident.
The head of the Chase family, Mortimer Chase, had long conceded defeat. Skylar would never have
expected Harry to persist in the fight.
