âTrying to run? Too late!â
In a swift move, Alex Rockefeller appeared in front of Granny Blackwood. This darned old woman
wasnât a martial artist at all. Her movements were limited, unlike Alex. The next
moment, Alex tapped Granny Blackwoodâs chest and cut off a certain nerve connection in her body.
She soon
fell to the ground and became unconscious.
Alex still couldnât kill this old woman at that moment because he had yet to cure Madame Claire Assex
and
Lady Beatrice Assex of their parasitic disease. If he killed Granny Blackwood now, it might trigger the
parasitic worms in their bodies. Alex placed the two women on the sofa. The old woman, on the other
hand, had all her limbs tied up. In fact, Alex sealed her pressure points before tossing her aside.
Just as Alex was about to enter the basement to create medicine for the parasitic disease, he received
a call on
his phone. When he looked at the screen, he saw that the call was from Cheryl Coney. Alex hesitated
for a few seconds. In the end, he still picked up. âWhatâs the matter, Cheryl?â
âAlex, Iâm in the hospital. I sawyour wife. She threw up blood and passed out. The emergency unit has
tried
many methods, but none of those could resuscitate her. Her situation seems a little complicated. Hurry
up, come and check on her!â Cheryl said in panicked voice. When Alex heard this, he frowned. D*mn it.
He was too careless. Not only were Madame Claire and Lady Beatrice affected, but Granny Blackwood
even came after him herself.
There was no reason Lady Dorothy would be spared. âDonât touch her. Iâll be right over. Sheâs been
inflicted with a parasitic disease,â Alex said. After hanging up, Alex immediately left home and headed
to First City Hospital. Half an hour later, Alex saw Lady Dorothy. Indeed, she was also inflicted with a
parasitic disease.
âIs it really a parasitic disease?â Cheryl asked. Alex nodded. âYes, thereâs no mistake about it. Iâm
taking her with me. She wonât be cured here in the
hospital. Iâll find a way when I get back,â he said. Alex picked Lady Dorothy up and wanted to leave. To
his surprise, a doctor stepped forward and stopped him.
âYou canât leave. Whatâs wrong with you? The
patient is in critical condition. How could you bring her home now? Donât you want her to receive
treatment?
What kind of a husband are you?â Alex looked at the doctor. âCan you find out whatâs the cause?â
ââ¦â The doctor remained silent.
âIf you canât even find out whatâs the cause, how can I count on you to save her?â Alex asked. The
doctor had nothing to say. Alex picked up Lady Dorothy and turned around to leave. Cheryl ran after
him. âAlex, do you need my help?â Alex gave it a thought. With three women inflicted by parasitic
diseases at the same time, he did indeed need
help. âCan you leave the hospital?â
âThat wonât be a problem,â Cheryl said. Cheryl truly wanted to help him. Apart from that, it was also her
first time encountering parasitic diseases. She wanted to find out more about
it by tagging along with Alex. âAlright. Come with me,â Alex said. ***
After returning to Maple Villa, Alex wasted no time.
He entered the basement right away. Last time, when he cured Leanna Graves from her parasitic
disease, he used blood from Priscilla Paytasâ Kyuhelios Pulse as a medicinal primer. However, two
days ago, Keith Yowell delivered some herbs over that
included a stalk of flaming lotus reishi.
This was a spiritual herb, and it was also a worldly treasure. Its
original attribute was evenstronger than Priscilla Paytasâ blood.
That was because Priscilla Paytasâ blood was not yet in its activated form. However, this flaming lotus
reishi was the real deal. On top of that, Alex still possessed quite a lot of Priscilla
Paytasâ blood.
Half an hour later, Alex finished creating the medicine. After feeding the three ladies from the Assex
family
with the medicine, all parasitic worms inside their bodies started escaping on their own. It was a much
easier process than when Alex cured Leanna Graves of her parasitic disease last time.
That was because Leanne Gravesâ parasitic worms had lived in her body far a very long time.
Meanwhile, the
parasitic worms had only just entered their bodies this time. Soon, the women from the Assex family
regained consciousness. Lady Dorothy was the first to open her eyes.
As soon as she did so, she saw Cheryl staring at her. Lady
Dorothy immediately sat up with a knee-jerk reaction. âWhy is it you? Why are you here?â Lady
Dorothyâs facial expression was filled with hostility. Alexâs eyes flashed. âHoney, Dr. Coney saved you,â
he quickly said. Cherylâs beautiful eyes went wide, and she had an odd expression on her face.
