Chapter 1012

“Leon, what is it? How’s my grandpa?” Seeing the look on his face, Iris’s heart sank.

“Iris, Elder Young is in a critical state. I think someone attacked him and damaged his central nerves connecting to his brain, which caused him to fall unconscious,” Leon explained.

When he first learnt that Albert fell sick, he assumed that Albert’s pre–existing illness resurfaced again.

However, judging from the current condition, Albert was attacked.

“What?”

“T- That’s not possible!”

Both Gilbert and Iris were stunned.

They both thought that Albert’s pre–existing illness resurfaced again, like Leon did, and were shocked that Leon would say Albert was attacked instead.

“What do you think you are talking about? My father has been struggling with his health. You must have treated him in a way that left some kind of side effects back then, causing his pre–existing illness to resurface again! Yet now you are saying that he was attacked? What a joke!” Gilbert said angrily.

Albert was already in the Intermediate Overlord State before he fell sick and the Young Mansion was heavily guarded, so no one in the entire Springfield City could have attacked him from behind.

“Leon, could you be mistaken?” Iris felt that it was unlikely for Albert to be caught off–guard as well after listening to Gilbert.

“My diagnosis is right. I’m telling the truth! His illness hasn’t returned. He was attacked and not only did he suffer severe injuries in his chest area, the attacker even destroyed his Energy Sea Point,” Leon explained.

“What a load of lies! Leon, we’ve hired the Holy Doctor to treat Dad before and if Dad was really attacked, why wouldn’t the Holy Doctor know about it? I think that you’re lying through your teeth because it’s beyond your capability to treat Dad!” Gilbert sneered smugly as though he saw right through Leon.

“I’m not lying! I’ve seen all the medicine Graham prescribed for Elder Young and they’re all medication meant to heal injuries. If I’m not mistaken, Graham probably came to a conclusion that Elder Young was indeed attacked, but I don’t know why he didn’t tell you about it,” Leon said.

Indeed, as the most experienced and skilled doctor in Springfield City, Graham made the correct diagnosis, though he did not have the ability to cure Albert and could not warn the others as he was being threatened by Harold.

“You’re great at making things up, aren’t you? If you can’t cure Dad, just say so. Why bother giving all these excuses? Do you take me for a child you can easily fool?” Gilbert already decided that Leon lied and did not believe him at all.

“Leon might not be lying!” Iris said, her expression darkening when she remembered something. “Dad, did you forget?“
