Yulia suddenly felt pity after seeing Delilah’s pleading eyes. She turned to Skylar and said, “Skylar,
since we have nothing planned for the day, why not help her grandfather out?”
Lola also chimed in. “Daddy, she’s crying! Her grandfather must’ve been in pain!”
Seeing that both of them sided with Delilah, Skylar could no longer refuse her.
At that moment, he could only agree. “Fine. Seeing that my wife and kid have sided with you, I’ll help
you out for once. However, you have to keep this a secret.”
Skylar wished to avoid attracting more people to his door asking for help.
Delilah became overjoyed after hearing his answer. She nodded. “Yes, I promise to keep it a secret!”
“Well, Yulia, take Lola for a walk. I’ll call you once I’m done.”
Skylar turned to Yulia and said.

“Take care, daddy! I’ll wait for you with mommy!” Lola exclaimed.
“Good girl!”
Skylar pecked on her forehead before leaving with Delilah.
Whilst on the way, Delilah introduced herself properly once again.
Skylar then learned that Delilah was the eldest daughter of the Whitlock family, one of the Four Great
Families.
Her sick grandfather was Blanc Whitlock.
Half an hour later, Delilah stopped the car at the entrance of Cloudtopia General Hospital.
Skylar followed closely behind her as they made their way to the VIP room on the top floor.
Blanc was lying in bed in a coma.
About a dozen people were standing around the hospital bed, and they were the descendants of the
Whitlock family.
“Delilah, where’ve you been? Why did you bring a commoner in here?”
As soon as Skylar stepped into the room, a middle-aged woman was berating Delilah annoyingly.
Delilah shouted and quickly explained, “This is Mr Stone, who has superb medical skills. He can treat a
patient with terminal stomach cancer using acupuncture! I invited him here to help treat my
grandfather.”
Everyone in the room gasped after hearing her explanation.
“Using acupuncture to cure terminal cancer? Delilah, are you sure you didn’t invite a con artist?”
“That’s right, only a con artist would say something like that! They’d said acupuncture, breathing
techniques or homeopathy cures everything, but they may have killed many!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I remember seeing this on the news yesterday. A breathing technique instructor instructed a young
fellow to fast for 54 days, causing him to starve to death! I don’t even know if that con artist enjoys
trampling on people’s lives or the young fellow was simply dumb….”
Delilah’s aunt, Veronica, hummed as the stories got more outrageous. “Delilah, what on Earth are you
thinking about? You brought a nobody and claimed that he’s a medical expert. What if something
happens to our grandfather? Will you take responsibility then? Everyone’s feeling upset after our
grandfather fell ill, so get rid of this conman now!”
Delilah was taken aback by her harsh comment and quickly turned to Skylar. “I’m sorry, Mr Stone.
Please give me a moment.”
Her eyes reddened as she continued to argue against Veronica. “Our grandfather is still in a coma.
Why not let Mr Stone try helping him out? For the past 6 months, you have invited skilled doctors from
all across the world, yet they couldn’t give a proper diagnosis for grandfather. We can’t give up on
grandfather, and I think you’re the ones who are letting him die.”
