After finished speaking, Elysia stood up. Seeing this, Baron quickly got to his feet as well and turned to the butler beside him, instructing, “Conon, go prepare a car for the Arcanum Master”

“Yes, sir” Conon bowed and then walked quickly towards the door.

+13 “Arcanum Master, thank you once again for saving his life. If there is ever anything I can do for you in the future, just let me know. The Murphy Family is at your disposal,” said Baron.

Elysia nodded slightly, shifted her gaze to the right, and noticed that Javier was leisurely looking at her with a playful expression on his face, She frowned. Although he resembled Fabian, they gave off completely different vibes. Fabian was decisive and ruthless, with a methodical approach to everything he did. In contrast, even though she had only met Javier once, she could sense a certain frivolity about him.

She then withdrew her gaze and walked out.

The three siblings saw her off and only returned after watching the car leave.

Given her prestigious status, it was unheard of that the Owner of Arcanum House had personally visited anyone’s home to diagnose them over the past few years.

They were grateful for her kindness because she would like to come to the Murphy Family to make a diagnosis of Mr. Murphy, Naturally, they did not dare to treat her with any disrespect.

After Elysia left, the playful look on Javier’s face completely disappeared. He sat up straight and said earnestly, “Sir, I would like to see Mr. Murphy.”

“Sure, Dr. Evans, this way, please,” Baron replied.

Javier followed Baron to the Ott’s bedroom. The elderly man lying in bed smiled at them.

“Dad, how do you feel?” asked Baron.

“Much better. My chest isn’t tight anymore, and my stomach doesn’t feel uncomfortable. In fact, I’m feeling hungry now,” Ott said in a deep–throated voice.

Hearing this, Baron’s face lit up with joy. “Dad, you need to eat light food as you have just had an operation. I’ll have the kitchen prepare something and send it over.”

“No need to wait. It’s a good sign that Dad is feeling hungry. I’ll go prepare something for you right away. I’ll make my best dish–

soup,” Judy volunteered, her eyes twinkling with happiness.

“Are you sure about your cooking skills? Dad has just gotten better. Let’s have the chef do it. It’ll be safer to eat,” Baron teased.

“Big brother, you’re clearly making fun of my cooking,” Judy retorted.

“I didn’t mean that,” Baron denied.

Watching the playful banter between the siblings, a tear slid down Ott’s eyes. His greatest pride in life was these three children.

They were close, filial, and successful. Even if he were to pass away now, he would have no regrets.

“Dad, look at Baron,” Judy said in a playful, coquettish tone. Although she was already close to forty years old, she still 1/3 16:57 Mon, 17 Feb M Chapter 176 revealed her childlike nature when facing Ott.

+13 Ott was so delighted that he couldn’t stop smiling. He had his daughter in middle age, and naturally, he doted on her more than his two sons.

“Now I just want to eat the soup that Judy cooked with her own hands. Baron, let her do it,” said Ott.

Since Mr. Murphy had agreed, what could Baron say? He looked at Judy and whispered, “Cook it well.”

“I know, big brother,” replied Judy.

With that, she walked out the door.

Ott chuckled, “I really have spoiled her.”

Although his words carried a hint of complaint, his expression showed no sign of it. Instead, it was filled with more affection. After saying this, he noticed the unfamiliar man standing by the bed and turned to Baron, asking, “Baron, who is this?”

“Dad, this is Dr. Evans, who came specially to treat you.”

“Oh, thank you, Dr. Evans. But, my illness has already improved,” said Ott.

Javier nodded upon hearing this. “You are right. You have indeed improved a lot.”

“Then... there’s no need for more treatment anymore, right?” added Ott.

It was no wonder he said that. He had seen too many doctors since he has fallen ill, and was now somewhat tired of them.

Just as Baron was about to persuade Ott, Javier said, “Of course, there’s no need for further treatment.”

Judging from his complexion, he found Ott looked more spirited, indeed. As long as he could eat and continue to take medicine, recovery was only a matter of time.

But, it was hard to judge the time required for recovery and the degree of recovery.

This young girl was really skilled. He had heard that the Murphy Family had invited many medical experts to treat Ott’s illness, but all in vain.

Never did he expect that the illness, which had baffled so many experts, would be easily cured by a young girl.

The Owner of Arcanum House was indeed worthy of her reputation. He wondered, ‘If she is so capable, could she also heal sore points?‘

Thinking of his mother, who had been living in pain since his sister’s death, his heart ached.

Javier thought, ‘Maybe she really has such an ability to cure the sore point of Mom.

Javier harbored a glimmer of hope in his heart. He thought, ‘What would it be like if Mom could be cured?‘

“Mr. Murphy, may I ask a question?” said Javier.

Hearing this, Baron slightly raised his eyebrows. “Dr. Evans, please feel free to ask. I will definitely answer to the best of my ability.”

“Where does Arcanum Master live?” asked Javier.

2/3 16:57 Mon, 17 Feb M Chapter 176 Baron was somewhat surprised, “Dr. Evans, why do you ask this?”

“Nothing much, I just want to pay a visit. Mr. Murphy wouldn’t refuse my request, would you?”

Hearing this, Baron quickly denied it. “Dr. Evans, not at all. I’ll have Jeremy write it for you right now if you want the address.”

Javier was satisfied with this. In fact, getting the address was quite simple for him. Even if Baron was unwilling to give him the address, he had other channels.

It would be troublesome compared to asking for it from him directly.

He didn’t like to make things more complicated than necessary.

After getting the address, Javier drove there. When he arrived in front of an antique building, he finally stopped the car. The surroundings were desolate, but the environment was quite nice.

It gave a feeling of quiet and serene depth. He gently knocked on the brick–red wooden door. The person who opened the door was Alyce. “Who are you looking for?”

Javier chuckled upon hearing this, “Out of question, I’m here to pay a visit to the Owner of Arcanum House.”

“Boss does not feel well today and won’t see any guests. Please go back,” said Alyce.

Javier thought, ‘Not feeling well?‘

The smile on Javier’s face deepened. He thought, ‘We have just met. How could she be unwell so quickly? It is clearly an excuse.‘

“What are you laughing at?” asked Alyce.

“Please tell the Boss that... we just met, and my surname is Evans,” added Javier.

Alyce was puzzled, but she still agreed. “A moment please.”

With that, she ran to the courtyard where Elysia lived, knocked on the door, and then walked in.

Elysia was lying on a chair, resting with her eyes closed.

“Boss, someone wants to see you. He says he has just met you and his surname is Evans,” said Alyce.

Hearing this, Elysia opened her eyes and muttered to herself, “He actually follows me here. Well, let me see what he’s up to.”
