Third floor of the villa.
I finally saw Hannah Young's father, who was lying in bed receiving an IV. His eyes were tightly shut, his lips were purple, and his entire body was as thin as a skeleton.
He showed no signs of life.
This was a person who had almost set foot in the realm of the dead; no medical skill in the world could save him!
I could even feel the aura of death on him! It nearly filled his chest!
Once it spilled over his head, not even a Daluo Golden Immortal could save him!
Hannah saw me shaking my head, walked to my side, and explained: "These past few years, my dad has been busy with business and hasn't paid attention to his health. Last month, he was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer... We tried the best hospitals abroad but to no effect. The doctors said he only had three days to live. Eventually, we managed to invite Sanders the Divine Doctor from Silverwood, which is why my dad has survived until now.
But yesterday, Sanders the Divine Doctor told me that my father might only have a day left, alas...
Luckily, my mom doesn't know about this yet. I hope you can help me keep it a secret. I'm really begging you, and money won't be an issue."
Just as I was about to speak, a wealthy lady wearing a cheongsam hurriedly walked over, accompanied by an elderly man in a white coat.
No need to think much, this lady must be Hannah's mother and the one I'm supposed to deceive this time.
As for the elderly man in the white coat beside her, he must be Sanders the Divine Doctor Hannah mentioned.
Hannah's mother came up to her, started crying, and held onto her tightly, sobbing: "Hanna, I just heard from Sanders the Divine Doctor that Megan Lopez doesn't have much time left, is it true? If Megan goes, what's the point of my life!"
Hannah's beautiful eyes widened; she looked directly at Sanders the Divine Doctor beside her.
She had clearly conspired with Sanders the Divine Doctor to keep it a secret before she left!
But what was going on now!
This caught her completely off guard!
Sanders the Divine Doctor stepped forward and said frankly: "Miss Butler, I'm sorry, I cannot accept your money. This is a human life, and we doctors must be accountable for what we say."
"You…" Hannah was utterly furious!
This old man was so despicable! He agreed before leaving, only to betray her immediately afterward!
At that moment, a young man about thirty years old stepped forward.
It was Hannah's half-brother! Butler Sean!
"Hanna, one should be honest. Birth, old age, sickness, and death are normal parts of life. Why are you hiding it from mom? I reckon dad should be gone soon. I've already arranged for a funeral company to give dad a grand funeral."
Upon seeing Butler Sean appear, she finally understood!
This guy has always wanted to inherit their father's estate, which should have been divided evenly among the three after their father's death!
If her mother were also driven to death, he could naturally obtain more riches! Despicable! Disgusting!
Hannah's mother was already beside herself with grief. Upon hearing Butler Sean's words, she nearly fainted!
Fortunately, Sanders the Divine Doctor pinched her acupoint, bringing her back to consciousness.
Sanders the Divine Doctor glanced at the bedridden father and sighed, consoling: "Madam, please take care of yourself."
Hannah's mother was completely devastated and ran toward the wall to bash against it!
"Megan, I'm coming to join you!"
Hannah's expression changed dramatically, she wanted to stop her mother, but it was too late! She was too far away!
Even though Butler Sean and Sanders the Divine Doctor were closer to her mother, they had no intention of stopping her! Instead, they revealed satisfied smiles!
Bastards! You two bastards!
Hannah's eyes were bloodshot, her fists clenched so tight her nails dug into her palms, drawing a trace of crimson blood.
She knew well that the Butler family might collapse just like this! Possibly losing two lives overnight!
"What to do? What can I do?"
Just at this critical moment, something unexpected happened.
A black shadow flashed by, and a pair of large hands appeared out of nowhere, directly grabbing the suicidal mother.
"The man in there, I can cure!"
At that moment, it was as if the entire world fell silent.
Everyone widened their eyes at me!
It was a young man, an unremarkable young man.
A young man whose total outfit cost less than two hundred yuan.
Hannah saw David stop her mother from committing suicide, breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to express her gratitude when she heard his boastful claim. Suddenly, she got a headache!
The charade was already exposed, why continue acting!
Do you have no sense?
Can't you see the situation here?
Hannah's mother raised her head, staring intently at me, gripping my hand tightly, and asked: "You…young man…can you really cure Megan? Is it true?"
I nodded, saying nothing more.
At that moment, Butler Sean chuckled: "Mom, you believe such a charlatan? Dad is in the late stage of cancer. There's no successful case across all of Eldoria or even the world. How can this kid cure it?"
"Plus, look at this kid. Barely grown, yet trying to treat illnesses? What a joke! Even Sanders the Divine Doctor said it's hopeless. How could he save anyone?"
I maintained a calm demeanor and said: "Just because others can't save him doesn't mean I, David Johnson, can't."
Sanders the Divine Doctor also stepped forward and asked: "Lad, do you have a medical practice license? Which school did you graduate from? Maybe I even taught your dean."
I shook my head: "No."
At this moment, both Sanders the Divine Doctor and Butler Sean laughed.
"Someone without even a medical practice license, treating illnesses? Treat your mom!"
Just after the words left his mouth, a gust of wind surged around!
"Smack!"
A slap landed directly on Butler Sean's face, instantly sending him flying and crashing into a marble pillar.
Butler Sean was stupefied, clutching his face, glaring at me, and shouting: "How dare you slap me? Do you know who I am!"
I stared down at Butler Sean, my cold voice echoing: "If I hear that word again, death!"
A dragon has reverse scales; touch them and you shall die, and for David Johnson, his parents are his reverse scales!
Butler Sean dared not speak further!
He seemed enveloped under those eyes!
Incredibly cold! Like the eyes of The God of Death.
I looked at the few people paralyzed with shock and said: "If you want me to treat the person inside, fine, the consultation fee is ten million."
Everyone present gasped.
To demand ten million without even treating yet?
This was too audacious.
Hannah hurried over to me, whispering: "David, stop acting, let's call it quits. I'll give you ten thousand after."
I ignored her completely.
Seeing this, Sanders the Divine Doctor couldn't stand it, huffing coldly: "Ten million, and you dare ask for that. Do you really think you're Hua Tuo?"
I looked at everyone, explaining: "Sorry, you've all misunderstood. Ten million is just to wake him up. To fully cure him, a full course is needed, and that's fifty million, non-negotiable."
