Chapter 51 Young Master Lee from Healler Hall

Upon seeing this, Harry and the others were stunned. To them, Victor was considered a successful businessman who could make a good fortune. Yet, he was groveling to another young man. Who exactly was that young man? Victor walked over just as they were guessing who the young man was. Although Victor was chided by the Young Master Lee, his face showed pride instead of displeasure.

He stroked his hair and looked at Harry and the others. He quizzed proudly, "Do you know who is that man inside the VIP room?"

Harry and others shook their heads and asked cautiously, "Is he an influential individual?"

"He's not just an influential person," Victor said mysteriously. "Have you heard of Healler Hall?"

Harry and the others nodded, "Yup. It is the largest Chinese medicine store in Ludington City. It seems to have a good business."

Victor added on proudly, "All of you have underestimated Healler Hall. It is not a mere Chinese medicine store."

"Is there something more about it?"

"Of course!" Victor boasted, "Master Lee came to Ludington City from Capital City 50 years ago and founded Healler Hall. I heard that he was a student of Semaj Ching, who was the 'Herbal King' of the Capital City. After he finished studying Chinese medicine, Master Lee returned to Ludington City."

"Ever since the establishment of Healler Hall, countless high-ranking officials and noblemen have come to seek treatment from Master Lee. For example, Vann Zhang, an official, and Owen Chu, who was the mayor, have all sought treatment at Healler Hall. So, Healler Hall is not just a simple Chinese medicine store. There are many influential people supporting it. Large-scale enterprises such as Huang Pharma, Lorenzo Pharma, and Domino Pharma in Ludington City may not be able to compete with it."

"Incredible! Victor, you know a lot!"

Victor put on a prideful look, "Of course, I am an expert in this industry, and I know a lot of inside information. The one inside the VIP room is the only grandson of Bruno Lee, the owner of Healler Hall. His name is Vernon Lee. He is the only descendant of Healler Hall and he has excellent medical skills. Naturally, everyone in the medical industry respects him."

Seeing their surprised expressions, Victor continued, "I'm lucky enough to have worked for Young Master Lee before. So, it can be said that we're familiar with each other. I went there to greet him just now." Victor was chased out just now. He was so thick-skinned that he bent the truth. Harry and others did not expose him, "Victor, you're so amazing to be able to befriend people from the upper-class society." "Haha, it's nothing!" Victor still sounded very proud.

At this moment, Victor happened to see Zachary exiting the washroom. He narrowed his eyes and mocked, "Some people think they can do anything just because they have a little money. But, connections are more important in modern society. Not everyone can get to know people like Young Master Lee." He ignored the fact that Zachary's Dark Gold VIP Card could not be obtained without connections.

Tracy had just spent a lot of money, which was equivalent to two months of her salary. She was even more disgusted by Zachary. She supported Victor and said, "Some people are just lucky enough to be a nouveau riche. How dare they think that they can enter the upper-class society. It's so laughable!"

Zachary frowned when he saw that they had not left yet and were still mocking him. He did not want to argue with them, so he turned to leave.

At that moment, Zachary's gaze fell on Young Master Lee, and his eyes immediately tensed up. He quickened his pace and walked towards the VIP room.

Seeing this, Victor was stunned. He then said sarcastically, "How ridiculous! Who does he think he is? Does he think that he can get to know Young Master Lee just by approaching him?"

"Let's see how he'll be driven out!" Tracy sneered.

Vernon, who was dressed in an expensive suit, picked up a glass of red wine with a smile and stood up. Then, he bowed slightly as he handed it to the woman opposite him.

He knocked his right thumb on the edge of the glass gently when he bowed. A bunch of white powder dropped into the wine and dissolved instantly.

"Miss Lim! Let me raise my glass to you," Vernon handed the glass of red wine to the woman. He picked up another glass of red wine for himself.

Lauren, who was dressed in a gown, stood up in a hurry. She did not take the glass of red wine from Vernon. She picked up the wine glass in front of her instead and smiled, "Young Master Lee, it's my honor to raise my glass to you." "Why do you refuse to drink the wine I have poured for you? You're disrespecting me!" Vernon pretended to be furious.

Lauren was stunned and was going to take the wine glass from Vernon. However, she felt that something was wrong after years of experience. "How can I trouble Young Master Lee to pour wine for me? I'll drink this glass of wine first," As she said this, she lifted her head and drank all the red wine in her glass.

Vernon's face darkened. "You're not giving me face? I don't simply pour wine for anyone. Well, I think there's no need to continue talking about the raw materials since you're disrespecting me.'

Hearing this, Lauren grew anxious. This was her main motive here. She had to take the wine glass from Vernon, "Young Master Lee, please forgive me. I'll drink it now. Please give it a second thought on the matter about the raw materials." Lauren was quite alert. She only took a small sip. Vernon, who was opposite her, let out a sly smile.

"This is our own aphrodisiac from Healler Hall. You'll be very aroused even if you only take a bite. Lauren, I'm going to have fun with you later." Thinking of this, Vernon was starting to get excited.

Lauren was a famous beauty in Ludington City. Many rich people and officials had tried to win over her heart but to no avail. Now, Vernon could finally sleep with her. He could show off about this in the upper circle for quite a while. Lauren put down the wine glass in her hand after merely wetting her lips with it. However, she felt her body getting hotter before the wine glass touched the table. She felt quite dizzy as well.

"Sh*t! There's something wrong with this wine!" Lauren cursed in her mind. She instinctively took out her phone to call for help.

Vernon had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He would not let her escape. He snatched her phone away and threw himself at her.

A dark figure rushed into the private room just as Vernon was about to press Lauren down on the sofa. He felt that his chest was forcefully hit before he could clearly see the black figure. The force was so strong that he flew backward and crashed into the wall behind him. He dropped to the ground with a dull thud.

"Young Master Lee!"

"Who are you?"

"Catch him now!"

Vernon was kicked into the air. The others in the VIP room came back to their senses and shouted angrily. The private room instantly went into chaos.

Chapter 52 Dashing into The VIP Room Angrily

Chapter 52 Dashing into The VIP Room Angrily

Lauren also acted decisively. She pulled herself together despite being dizzy and found a glass of water on the table. She splashed it on her face, successfully waking herself up.

"Zachary, why are you here?" She asked in surprise when she saw Zachary. After seeing Vernon being kicked away and the crowd surrounding them, she realized what was going on instantly. "Zachary, let's go now!" Lauren urged him immediately. They would get into trouble offending a person like Vernon.

Zachary nodded at Lauren. He carried Lauren in his arms and was about to walk out of the VIP room.

At that moment, those who were seated near the entrance rushed towards Zachary fiercely. One of them was savage. He was holding a triangular bayonet that should be illegal to use and was looking at Zachary viciously. "Scram!"

Zachary shouted furiously and swiftly punched one of them. In the blink of an eye, his fist landed on the person's face.

With a bang, the person felt the world spinning and saw stars before him. He lost his consciousness...

The other person was the one who was holding a triangular bayonet, he rushed towards Zachary fiercely. The person was cunning as he targeted Lauren when he realized that it was not easy to deal with Zachary. He aimed at Lauren's heart ruthlessly.

Anger flashed across Zachary's eyes. An invisible stream of Qi was bursting out from his palm. The Qi hit the man's wrist in the nick of time.

The direction of the triangular bayonet changed in an instant. It merely brushed Lauren's shoulder.

Then, Zachary raised his leg and kicked on the man's chest in rage. He didn't exert full force when he kicked Vernon as he was aware of the consequences. But now, he used all his strength in the kick, intending to kill the man.

The effect of him with a full-strength kick was stunning. The man was sent flying backwards for a long distance in the corridor before crashing to the ground. There was a slight cracking sound from his chest. It seemed that more than one of his bone was broken.

The man's eyes rolled upwards with a groan of agony. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Harry and the others standing not far away were frightened upon this scene. They had never seen such a violent and bloody fighting scene in person.

They were also utterly shocked by Zachary's actions. He dashed into Vernon's VIP room and kicked him in the guts. After that, Zachary rushed out of the VIP room fiercely.

"What's going on?" Harry's brain seemed to stop working. He couldn't understand why his former schoolmate would turn out to be an aggressive person.

Victor was shocked as well. After coming back to his senses, he looked at Zachary coldly and sneered, "How dare he attack Young Master Lee! He is in trouble now. He'll definitely suffer the revenge of Young Master Lee. Even if he doesn't die, he will be crippled!"

"Ah, what should we do? Victor, didn't you just say that you are on good terms with Young Master Lee? Why don't you put in some good words and ask him to spare Zachary? ;After all, Zachary is our classmate," Harry said. He couldn't bear to see Zachary suffer.

"Why will Young Master Lee listen to me?" Victor thought and cursed secretly. He shook his head, "This is not something we should be involved in. Let's go now. Otherwise, we'll be in trouble if Young Master Lee gets pissed and wants to vent his anger on us."

Hearing this, Tracy's face turned pale with fright. She urged immediately, "Hurry up! Let's not be involved in this trouble caused by that bast*rd."

Some students were displeased by Tracy's words, but they should really stay away from this matter. Therefore, they sighed, ready to leave.

At that moment, Vernon, who had been kicked in the VIP room, scrambled up and shouted angrily, "Block the exits now! No one is allowed to leave."

"Whoosh!"

With a rustling sound, more than 20 bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses rushed over. Their average height of 1. 8 meters and their muscular bodies gave off an oppressive aura. "Catch him and beat him to death!" Vernon roared, his eyes red with anger.

Lauren immediately became anxious. She struggled to break herself free from Zachary's arms and said to Vernon, "Young Master Lee, this is a misunderstanding. It's not related to Zachary at all. It's all my fault. I apologize to you." "B*tch! Who are you to say that it's just a misunderstanding? I'll deal with you later!" Vernon growled. He looked at Zachary and was about to gesture to his bodyguards to attack him.

All of a sudden, a figure crossed Vernon's mind. His lips curled into a cold smile as he said, "I didn't expect it to be you, little b*stard!"

Hearing this, Zachary frowned and recalled something. He looked at Vernon with a cold gaze, "I remember that I once told you that you'll have to pay for it every time you say these words."

"Pay for it? Ridiculous!" Vernon smirked. "Do you think everything is still the same? Do you think you're still in Healler Hall? It's just a piece of cake for me to torture you now. I remember that I once warned you not to step foot in Ludington City anymore. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the consequences."

Judging from the conversation between Zachary and Vernon, the crowd, including Lauren, was stunned. It seemed that they had known each other for a long time, and their relationship was complicated.

However, Vernon was the Young Master of the Lee family, who owned the Healler Hall in Ludington City. Zachary was just an unknown poor guy. How could the both of them get to know each other?

Victor and Tracy were especially dumbfounded at the moment. They couldn't figure out what was going on at all. They even doubted if Zachary was the same person whom they had always mocked for being poor. "That woman in Zachary's arms... seems to be Lauren Lim!" One of the classmates suddenly noticed it and cried out in surprise.

"Lauren? Do you mean the famous reporter, Miss Lim? It's impossible. How can Zachary get to know her?" Tracy retorted immediately. However, they were standing not far away from Lauren. They could see her face clearly. It was no doubt that she was Lauren.

Zachary's classmates were all in a confused state. Zachary owned the Dark Gold VIP Card of Ricardo Group, he beat Vernon up, and it turned out that he had known Vernon for a long time. He was also holding Lauren, the most beautiful reporter of Ludington City, in his arms.

Was this the Zachary Ching they used to know? Could it be that this guy was different from the Zachary whom they knew back in their junior high days?

Even Victor and Tracy could not help but conjure such an absurd thought.

"What is Zachary's identity? Is he from a wealthy family?" Harry gulped and said.

Hearing this, many classmates agreed with Harry.

Victor's face fell. He sneered, "It doesn't matter who he is. He has now provoked Young Master Lee. He is in trouble now."

"That's right. He doesn't know what's good or bad for him. He'll definitely suffer after provoking Young Master Lee," Tracy echoed with a hint of schadenfreude. Harry and the others frowned after hearing what they said.

Chapter 53 Childhood

Chapter 53 Childhood

Victor and others were shocked while Vernon was cursing angrily. Memories of the past flashed across Zachary's mind.

It was more than 20 years ago. Zachary and his mother lived in the house of a rich family in Ludington City not long after he was born.

Zachary was still very young. He didn't know what was going on with his own family, but he could vaguely remember that the rich family treated him and his mother nicely. They provided Zachary and his mother with good clothing and food. However, he could vaguely feel that it was not a type of family affection. It felt as if the family was flattering him and his mother.

Later, he found out that he was living with the Lee family, who was the owner of Healler Hall in Ludington City. Bruno Lee, the master of the family, treated Zachary very well as if he was his blood-related grandson. In many people's eyes, he treated Zachary much better than Vernon, who was his real grandson.

Bruno even mentioned many times that he would let Zachary inherit Healler Hall whenever he had a gathering with the people from the same industry. Many people were shocked, but most of them praised Bruno for being so kind and generous because he treated an outsider so well. He was a benevolent Chinese physician indeed.

Although Zachary's father was not with him since he was born, he had a happy childhood because Bruno treated him very well.

However, everything changed when Zachary turned ten years old. After Bruno came back from Capital City, he changed his attitude towards Zachary and his mother. He no longer cared about them and became indifferent instead. In the end, he even scolded and insulted Zachary and his mother.

Zachary and his mother no longer received good food and clothing, and they were treated terribly. The food was not enough to fill their stomachs and the clothes were not enough to keep them warm. As a result of the tense relationship, they were chased out of Healler Hall without a penny. Bruno even warned them to not come back to Ludington City anymore.

The hard times were one of the tremendous changes in Zachary's life. He had a good life initially, being treated like a prince. However, he became as poor as a beggar in the blink of an eye.

Vernon, who was almost the same age as Zachary, changed his attitude towards him as well. He had never liked Zachary because Zachary was an outsider. However, he could only endure it because his grandfather and father forced him to. But he unleashed all his anger ever since Bruno changed his attitude. He bullied Zachary and called Zachary a little ba*stard without a father.

This was a huge blow to Zachary at that time. He picked a fight with Vernon, and both of them suffered from a lot of injuries. The consequences of this fight were serious, as this fight was one of the contributing factors that caused them to be chased out of the Lee family.

Zachary's mother took him to live in a remote town. Years later, Zachary grew up and asked his mother about the past.

"Who is my father? Where is he? Why did we live in the Lee family? Why did the Lee family treat us very well and then changed their attitude tremendously? What on earth happened?"

Zachary had many questions, but his mother did not disclose anything. She just told him not to have any contact with the Lee family.

A few years ago, his mother gave him a tattered medical book before she passed away, telling him that this medical book was left to him by his father. He had to keep it well.

Zachary did not think much about it after so many years. Also, Harrison's soul was in his body now. These memories had been buried in the deep recesses of his mind. He started to recall these memories only when Vernon scolded him "little b*stard".

Vernon glared at Zachary fiercely. He touched the wound on the back of his head and yelled at the bodyguards around him, "Why are you still standing there? Go ahead and teach this little b*stard a lesson!"

In an instant, the bodyguards swarmed in and surrounded Zachary. Each of them was extremely fierce. Their punches and kicks were aimed at the vital parts of Zachary's body. A normal person would definitely be beaten to death. Zachary narrowed his eyes. He held Lauren in one of his arms to protect her, while he attacked the bodyguards with his other arm. He punched and kicked the bodyguards accurately.

He did not put in much force to attack the bodyguards, but he aimed at their acupoints. The bodyguards would fall to the ground immobilized if they were hit by him.

In just a few minutes, more than half of the bodyguards had collapsed to the ground. The rest of the bodyguards looked at Zachary warily.

Although Zachary remained expressionless, he was actually struggling to win this fight. He had to rely on his strength and understanding of the acupuncture points to survive because the fighting skills of the bodyguards were much better than his.

Although it seemed as if he had gained the upper hand now, he might not be able to hold on if the bodyguards kept on fighting with him. He needed to protect Lauren at the same time.

Vernon was shocked when he saw that half of his bodyguards were knocked down in the blink of an eye. He grew more furious and roared, "All of you are useless! You can't even deal with an unarmed b*stard. What do I need you for? Kill that little b*stard now!"

Seeing the rest of the bodyguards rushing towards him recklessly, Zachary narrowed his eyes slightly. There was an invisible stream of Qi in his legs. Then, he sped up suddenly. He accelerated past the bodyguards and reached Vernon's side as fast as lightning.

He grabbed Vernon's throat and slapped him three times, sending him into a stunned state.

"How dare you hit me!"

Zachary growled, "This is the price you have to pay for what you said!"

"How dare you! I'm going to kill you!" Vernon roared madly. "Shoot him now!"

The remaining bodyguards took out their guns and pointed at Zachary concurrently.

The onlookers were scared out of their wits. They would have escaped if there were no bodyguards guarding the door. Most of them crumbled to the ground as their legs went weak.

Seeing this, Zachary couldn't help frowning. He didn't expect Vernon to be so arrogant and careless that he dared to use so many guns in public.

"You can shoot me if you like, but I can assure you that your Young Master Lee will be dead." Zachary stared at the bodyguards indifferently. A silver needle suddenly appeared in his hand, and he aimed it at Vernon's temple. Vernon didn't expect him to be so violent. He was trembling in fear and he almost knocked into the silver needle himself.

The bodyguards tensed up. They would not have a good ending if something bad happened to Vernon.

"Drop the guns now!" Zachary demanded sharply.

The bodyguards did not dare to act rashly. "Let go of Young Master Lee!"

At the same time, someone pointed their gun at Lauren. Seeing this, Zachary raised his eyebrows.

The atmosphere became tenser. It was as if the air was filled with gunpowder, and a little spark would immediately cause an eruption.

Chapter 54 Elegant Noah Lee

Chapter 54 Elegant Noah Lee

"Drop the guns now!"

"Release Young Master Lee!"

The atmosphere was really tense. No one wanted to take a step back.

At this critical moment, the footsteps of a pair of leather shoes were heard. It attracted much attention and they all turned to look curiously.

The footsteps were getting closer. A young man, who was about 26 or 27 years old, came into everyone's view. He looked elegant in a white suit and he wore a light smile on his face that eased the people down. Many young women even forgot that they were in a dangerous situation. They looked at the approaching young man in a daze.

"It's so lively here!" The young man took a glance around and said calmly. He was not shocked at all.

"Young Master Lee, it's you!" He then glanced at Vernon.

Vernon wanted to say something, but Zachary was pointing a silver needle at his head. Hence, he couldn't speak.

The man in the white suit took a look at the bodyguards around him who were armed with guns, "This is a place for business, not for you to fight with weapons. You will scare the guests away. Put down the guns!" The bodyguards did not move at all. They would only follow Vernon's orders.

Seeing this, the man in the white suit showed no expression. He walked towards Zachary, handed him a business card, and smiled, "Mr. Ching. My name is Noah Lee. My father, Henric Lee, asked me to send you his regards." "Director Lee's son? The young master of Ricardo Group?" Zachary's heart skipped a beat and took the business card.

Noah looked at the silver needle in Zachary's hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Ching, it'd be bad if you hurt Vernon accidentally. Why don't you put down your weapon and let's have a peaceful talk."

Zachary hesitated for a moment, but Noah smiled and continued, "I can guarantee the safety of Mr. Ching and Miss Lim."

After thinking for a moment, Zachary nodded slightly. He withdrew the silver needle in his hand and pushed Vernon away. Noah was sent by Henric, and he trusted Henric very much.

Several bodyguards rushed over. They held Vernon behind them and guarded him.

Vernon was gasping for breath, looking extremely furious. He had never been treated like this before. He was held as a hostage, which was extremely humiliating.

Feeling ashamed and furious, Vernon roared, "Beat him to death!"

The bodyguards became agitated. Noah's face darkened as he said sternly, "I've said that I'll guarantee the safety of Mr. Ching and Miss Lim. Young Master Lee, pay me some respect!" Although his voice was not loud, there was a sense of intimidation in it.

Vernon gritted his teeth, "Noah, don't intervene in this matter. It's my personal grudge with that guy."

Noah bellowed, "Whoever dares to attack them will be the enemy of Ricardo Group! I don't mind fighting with them."

"Noah, are you going to turn on me for this nobody?" Vernon glared at Noah fiercely.

Noah's expression remained unchanged. "How can people in Ludington City respect me if I can't live up to my promise? Vernon, I bet you understand this principle too."

Vernon gritted his teeth and thought for a moment. In the end, he gestured to his bodyguards and said, "Let's go." Then, he left with the bodyguards. He glared at Zachary before leaving, "Br*t, you're lucky today. I'll definitely deal with you later."

Noah smiled after Vernon had left. "Mr. Ching, Miss Lim, I'm sorry that such a thing happened in my hotel."

"Mr. Lee, you're too polite. We should thank you. I'll treat you to dinner next time. You must accept my offer!" Lauren thanked him with a charming smile.

"It's my honor to be invited by Miss Lim."

"I have to thank you and Director Lee for today. I will definitely repay your kindness in the future," Zachary said gratefully. He really had to thank Noah for his help. Otherwise, he really didn't know how the incident would end. "You're welcome, Mr. Ching. It's my father's honor to have a good relationship with you," Noah grinned.

Zachary and Lauren said goodbye to Noah and left Vista Hotel. After that, Noah left as well.

It took Harry and the other classmates a long time to come back to their senses in the corridor. They walked slowly towards the exit.

The shock in their eyes still remained as thoughts raced through their minds. "Who exactly is Zachary? He dares to stand against Young Master Lee. Also, he has a good relationship with the Young Master of Ricardo Group."

As for Victor and Tracy, a chill crept into their hearts when they thought about how they had mocked Zachary. They would definitely not be able to fight back if Zachary used his connections to deal with them.

On the top floor of Vista Hotel, Noah was talking on his phone in his office. He was watching as Lauren and Zachary were leaving. He pursed his lips slightly and said in a disapproving tone.

"Is it really worth it for us to have a conflict with the Healler Hall for him?"

"Noah, Zachary is definitely not a simple person. It'll be beneficial for us to make friends with him now. Besides, he is calm and brave. He is a good young man. You should befriend him if you have a chance to do so," Henric said on the other end of the phone.

"Alright!" Noah responded.

He didn't understand why his father thought so highly of Zachary. He didn't think that Zachary was worthy of his painstaking efforts, but he had to help Zachary since his father asked him to do so.

After hanging up the phone, he threw these matters to the back of his mind. The Ricardo Group was a large-scale enterprise and, as the heir of the Ricardo Group, Noah had a lot of things to deal with. Zachary sped all the way to Lauren's home.

He had to admit that the aphrodisiac from Healler Hall was quite effective. Although Lauren had only taken a small amount of the aphrodisiac, she was almost unconscious when she reached home. She even tried to take off her clothes when they were on the way home. Looking at her, Zachary was aroused.

Zachary carried her into her room. Then, he used Shannon Herbal Skill to transmit aura into Lauren's body to remove the effect of the aphrodisiac. He used cold water to wash Lauren's body. After finishing with all these, he could finally have a rest.

He sat on the sofa and tried to catch his breath. It was already 12 o'clock as he checked the time. It was a busy night. First, he had an unhappy gathering with his classmates. Then, he met his old rival, Vernon. Fortunately, nothing went wrong in the end.

Zachary was determined to learn some martial arts after what had happened tonight. It would not be a problem for him to deal with normal people with his current skills. However, it would be hard for him to defeat bodyguards who had undergone special training or those from the special forces even though his strength was beyond average.

Chapter 55 The Difficulty Faced by The Company

Chapter 55 The Difficulty Faced by The Company

The warm morning sun shone into the room. Zachary woke up in a daze and felt something soft under his body. He turned over instinctively and almost jumped up in shock when he opened his eyes, his drowsiness disappearing in an instant. He was lying on Lauren's big soft bed at the moment. A faint perfume wafted into his nose from the pillows on the bed.

"Why am I sleeping here? Was the effect of aphrodisiac not completely cleared last night? But, I don't feel anything!"

Zachary was shocked and confused. He lifted the blanket and scanned his body to confirm if anything happened last night. But, there were no traces.

The door was pushed open with a squeaking sound at this moment.

Zachary was surprised. He tucked himself under the blanket and pretended to be asleep. He really didn't know how to explain to Lauren why he was sleeping on her bed.

"Zach, get up... now," Lauren called out. After seeing that Zachary was still sleeping, she lowered her voice and mumbled, "He's still sleeping. I'll wake him up later." There was a squeaking sound coming from the door again as soon as Lauren finished speaking. It seemed that she had left.

Hearing this, Zachary let out a long sigh of relief. He rolled over from the bed and opened his eyes.

He nearly jumped up when he opened his eyes.

Lauren was bending down and looking at him with a smile. He could even vaguely see the cleavage of her breasts.

"Zach, you've finally woken up!" Lauren had a charming smile on her face.

"Yea, I just woke up!" Zachary said awkwardly. He looked at the bedside and did not find his clothes. "Sister Lim, I..."

He wanted to explain that he didn't mean anything else, but it was not convincing enough as he was still lying on Lauren's bed.

"What do you want to say? Last night, you..." Lauren said softly. Tears were welling up within her eyes, looking as if she had been wronged.

Zachary was taken aback. He secretly thought, "Did I really do something to her last night?"

"Sister Lim, please don't cry. I will be responsible for what I have done. I will marry you immediately if you agree!" He went all out and promised Lauren while patting on his chest.

"Marry me?" Lauren looked surprised. She rolled her eyes, "Zach, what are you thinking? You fell asleep on the sofa last night. So, I moved you into my room when I got up in the morning."

"Oh, I see! So nothing happened last night..." Zachary was stunned.

"Of course nothing had happened. But you seem to be looking forward to something! Do you want me to fulfill your wish now?" Lauren raised her eyebrows as she bent her body even more. The cleavage of her fair breasts was more obvious

now.

"No, you don't have to!" Zachary waved his hand repeatedly. She was really good at playing with men!

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore," As Zachary blushed bright red with embarrassment, Lauren laughed. "Get up now. Breakfast is ready."

Zachary put on his clothes hurriedly after Lauren went out. He walked to the dining room after washing up.

There were gruel, green vegetables, and a small dish of pickles on the table. Although it looked simple, his appetite increased when he smelt the aroma.

After having breakfast, Zachary helped to wash the bowls and chopsticks. He sat down in the living room and chatted with Lauren.

After a brief talk about their company, Zachary looked at Lauren and asked hesitantly, "Sister Lim, why were you in touch with Vernon? Last night, at the hotel..."

Lauren turned resentful after hearing this. "It's all because of you. It seems that you're quite free recently, but there are many things going on in the company. Although we can start the production now, there's another huge problem that has not been solved yet."

"What's the problem?"

"It's about the raw materials!" Lauren sighed softly, "For Western pharmaceutical companies like Huang Group, the raw materials are basically some chemical substances which are suitable for mass production. They can be made by chemical methods, and we can buy them directly. However, our health supplements are made of Chinese medicine. We can't use any chemical substances at all. We can only buy raw materials."

"Oh, it's very difficult to buy raw materials!" Zachary realized the problem.

"Of course!" Lauren explained, "The demand for Chinese medicine is lower than Western medicine. Naturally, there will be less supply of the raw materials for Chinese medicine. Some of the Chinese medicine stores bought them from certain individuals in small amounts. Some have their own plantations."

"But, those Chinese medicine stores are not large-scale stores. I have talked to many of them and they don't have extra raw materials to sell to us. So, I can only ask Vernon for help. After all, Healler Hall is the largest Chinese medicine store in Ludington City. Their plantations are also much larger than others, and they have all sorts of herbs there. I didn't expect the meeting with him would end up like this!" Lauren heaved a long sigh.

Zachary was frowning. It was very simple for him to deal with any problem regarding to the formulation. But, he could not do anything about the raw materials. It was impossible for him to build a plantation as it was too late. Also, they didn't have much money left.

Seeing that Zachary was at a loss, Lauren waved her hand with a smile, "Well, don't worry about it. You just have to focus on the formulation. I'll take care of the rest."

Zachary was touched. "Thank you, Sister Lim!"

"It's not enough to thank me by just saying it out loud. Can you put it into action?" Lauren leaned on the sofa with one hand propping her head and said with a faint smile while looking at Zachary seductively. Zachary was taken aback for a moment. He said with a wry smile, "How about increasing your shares, Sister Lim?"

"Tsk!" Lauren rolled her eyes, "Is that all?"

"Well, Sister Lim, what do you want..."

"Nah, I'm just kidding with you." Lauren laughed. "It's getting late. Let me send you home now. Otherwise, the small beauty in your house will be jealous. You didn't go back at all last night." "Vanessa and I are just friends," Zachary explained. "I'll ask Master Sue if he knows anyone that can help us with the raw materials after I go back."

"Well, that will be great. We have to speed up. Some pharmaceutical companies have received the news. They seem to be in a hurry to develop a similar product," Lauren put on a serious expression. Zachary happened to bump into Maxwell at home when he came back from Lauren's place. He talked to Maxwell about his problem.

Maxwell was very supportive of Zachary in producing the refining ointment on his own. He would not trust other companies in this era. It would be worse if the reputation of Chinese medicine was ruined. Hence, Maxwell busied himself making phone calls the whole morning. Seeing this, Zachary's heart was warmed.

However, the result was not ideal. Although Maxwell was influential in the Chinese medicine field of Ludington City, it was limited to academic and medical aspects only. He did not have many connections when it came to business. Moreover, the industry producing raw materials of Chinese medicine was not big. They could only supply for themselves. They did not have extras to be sold to outsiders.

After the last round of inquiry, several companies were willing to offer some raw materials for the sake of Maxwell, but the total amount was not large. It was only enough for the production line of the Wonderzac Group to operate for half a month, and it was not enough to support long-term production.

Many companies mentioned that the plantations of Healler Hall were very large. There must be extra raw materials for sale. However, Zachary did not want to contact the Lee family. Also, it was impossible for them to cooperate with Zachary based on his relationship with them. Zachary ruled out this choice immediately.

After thanking Maxwell, Zachary gave Lauren a call and told her about the situation. He discussed with Lauren that they could start the production on a small scale if there were not many raw materials for them. Lauren had no other way but to try contacting other merchants.

Chapter 56 Sienna Tang

Chapter 56 Sienna Tang

A week had passed in the blink of an eye. Although Maxwell had contacted many people, he didn't make any progress on the problem with the raw materials yet. Some medicine stores, which originally agreed to cooperate with Wonderzac Group, had given up. The reasons seemed to have something to do with Healler Hall. Lauren gave Zachary a call in the afternoon just as he was feeling disappointed.

"Sister Lim, what can I do for you?"

"Zachary, hurry up and come to the wellness center we visited last time. There is something important related to the raw materials of Wonderzac Group," Lauren said quickly on the other side of the phone. She sounded very excited. "Okay, I'll be right there!" Zachary nodded and rushed out immediately.

Zachary took a taxi to the wellness center and told the receptionist about Lauren. Soon, he was led to a VIP room upstairs.

He saw Lauren sitting on the sofa just as he entered the room. A woman in a black overcoat donning short hair was sitting opposite Lauren.

Although she had a petite body, she had a domineering demeanor. Zachary sensed a hint of malice when both of their eyes met.

"This is no simple woman!" He quietly assessed her. Then, he sat down beside Lauren.

"Zachary, this is Sienna Tang," Lauren introduced. She pointed to Zachary and said, "This is Dr. Ching, whom I've mentioned."

"He..." Sienna looked at him with undisguised suspicion.

Lauren explained immediately, "Miss Tang, although Dr. Ching is young, his medical skills are excellent. He will definitely cure the illness of your relative."

At the same time, Lauren explained to Zachary in a low voice, "Miss Tang can help us get the raw materials for your Chinese medicine. But, you have to cure the illness of her relative."

Hearing this, Zachary nodded slightly and turned to Sienna, "Miss Tang, I am quite confident about my medical skills. Can you tell me more about the illness of your relative? What symptoms is your relative experiencing? If necessary, I can go to diagnose now."

"Your words have no reassurance!" Sienna said sharply as she went straight to the point.

Zachary was stunned. Then, he smiled because he felt that it would be convenient to communicate with such a straightforward person.

He reached out his hand and grabbed Sienna's wrist.

Sienna was shocked. With a rustle, she took out a gleaming dagger and aimed it at Zachary's wrist.

"Watch what you're doing!" Sienna said coldly.

"This woman is really violent!" Zachary thought. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and quickly explained, "I am a Chinese physician. I was trying to feel your pulse."

"Chinese physician?" Sienna looked at him with more suspicion. However, she still stretched out her arm.

Zachary placed his fingers on her wrist. The skin of this woman was cold not smooth. It was as rough as the skin of laborers.

His finger trembled slightly as he was feeling her pulse. Zachary slowly frowned.

A moment later, he loosened his finger and looked at Sienna on the opposite side, "Miss Tang, if I am right, you always carry out vigorous physical exercise. As a result, your lung functions have deteriorated. It is not serious, but you will suffer from shortness of breath and dizziness occasionally. Also... you snore when you sleep."

Zachary paused for a while before saying the last sentence. No young woman would be willing to be commented on their snoring, especially a violent woman.

Sienna's pupils dilated when he said that she snored when she slept. Fortunately, she didn't attack Zachary.

In fact, she was surprised because Zachary's diagnosis was very accurate. She had just been diagnosed by her family doctor with cardiopulmonary disease. She was worried that this disease would affect her task, so she did not report it. It was impossible for Zachary to get her information. Also, only people who were close to her knew that she snored when she slept.

Sienna had confidence in Zachary after listening to his accurate diagnosis. She got up and said, "You can come with me now." After that, she went out directly.

Zachary was stunned by Sienna because she was so decisive. He came back to his senses when Lauren nudged him. He got up and followed Sienna immediately.

Sienna got into a dark green Hummer in the parking lot of the wellness center. The fierce and aggressive design of the Hummer was a huge contrast to Sienna's thin figure, manifesting a different type of charm.

Zachary and Lauren got into the car. As soon as they fastened the seat belts, Sienna drove the Hummer at high speed like she was riding a beast.

Similar to how she talked, her driving style was furious and rash.

Finally, they arrived at the foot of a small hill in the suburbs. Lauren's face was pale, and she almost threw up.

On the other hand, Zachary's expression remained unchanged because of his strong body. Sienna was a little surprised by this.

They followed her into the villa at the foot of the hill. The neatly managed landscape, as well as the soldiers guarding the entrance, showed that this should be the residence of an army member.

A maid walked over quickly as soon as they entered the villa. She said to Sienna respectfully, "Miss, you're back!"

"Where is Abby?" Sienna asked.

The maid was anxious, "Miss Abby is ill again. She is in the bedroom."

"What? Why is she sick again? Isn't her condition stabilized a few days ago?" Sienna rushed over in concern. Zachary and the others followed behind immediately. Sienna walked to the bed in the middle of the room as soon as she entered. She shouted worriedly, "Abby!"

An elegant man with gold-rimmed glasses was standing next to the bed. He asked upon seeing Zachary and Lauren, "Sienna, who are they?"

Sienna turned around and introduced them to the elegant man. "Uncle Harper, these are my friends. Mr. Ching is a doctor. I invited him here to treat Abby."

"Doctor?" The elegant man looked at Zachary doubtfully.

Sienna was about to explain, but an exclamation sounded at this moment. "Ah! You're Dr. Ching, am I right?"

"Why are you shouting?" Harper frowned and warned, showing the dignity of a military family.

Zachary turned around and saw a middle-aged woman. She was the nanny of the little girl he had treated in the shopping mall that day. The little girl lying on the bed was the one whom he had treated, Abby Tang.

Chapter 57 A Critical Condition

Chapter 57 A Critical Condition

"I'm sorry, Master Harper!" The nanny apologized to Harper immediately. She pointed at Zachary and said, "Master Harper, Dr. Ching is the doctor who saved Miss Abby last time. It was all thanks to him..."

Harper gestured to the nanny to stop talking. He looked at Zachary and asked, "Is it you who saved my daughter last time?"

"Yes, it's me," Zachary nodded. He looked at Abby on the bed from a distance. The bedsheet was stained with the blood from her nose. It seemed difficult to stop the bleeding now.

Zachary started to feel anxious, "Abby is in a critical condition now. She must be treated immediately." He turned to the nanny, "Didn't I give you my business card last time and asked you to contact me immediately if anything happens?" The nanny looked helpless. She said softly, "I told them about you, but Madam Brittney didn't believe me and threw your business card away."

Zachary didn't bother about this. He took out his silver needles and walked quickly toward the bed.

A dangerous light flashed across Harper's eyes. He got up immediately and stopped Zachary, "What are you doing?"

"Miss Tang is in critical condition. She must receive treatment immediately," Zachary said urgently.

Sienna helped Zachary to persuade Harper as well, "Uncle Harper, his medical skills are really excellent. I have tested him before I brought him here. We should not delay the treatment for Abby."

Looking at Abby whose face had turned pale, Harper was heartbroken. He looked at Zachary again but did not make way for him. "Your aunt has called a doctor over. They will be here soon." Obviously, he did not trust Zachary, a doctor he had never heard of.

All of a sudden, Abby groaned. Blood began to ooze out from the corner of her eyes. Her face was utterly pale and she looked like a cold porcelain doll.

"Abby!" Harper and Sienna shouted at the same time. Their face was filled with anxiety.

"Uncle Harper, the situation is critical. Please let Dr. Ching treat her! Hasn't he saved Abby before?" Sienna quickly advised.

"Master Harper, I was watching last time. It's true that Dr. Ching managed to save Miss Abby," The nanny echoed.

Looking at his daughter who was bleeding incessantly, Harper felt as if his heart was stabbed by a knife. Finally, he nodded, "Fine. But, you'll be responsible if anything happens to Abby."

He glared at Zachary and yelled out the last sentence.

Zachary frowned and was a little pissed off with Harper's attitude. However, Abby's life was at stake now. He rushed to the bedside quickly. The silver needles in his hands were floating up and down and spinning at the same time.

He stabbed the silver needles swiftly and accurately on Abby's face. The needles were still spinning when they were stabbed in her face. A thin and intermittent red line began to appear gradually on Abby's face. This was one of the techniques of Miraculous Nine Spikes, known as Firstie Spike.

Seeing the silver needles stabbed into his daughter's face, Harper almost rushed over and threw Zachary out. However, he was held back by Sienna.

Abby's bleeding was finally stopped after Zachary finished treating her with Firstie Spike.

Then, Zachary began to feel her pulse to diagnose her. His expression became serious as time passed.

All of a sudden, he turned around and looked at Harper. He shouted, "What medicine did you give her?"

"What's wrong, Dr. Ching?" Sienna asked in a hurry.

Zachary said heavily, "I have given her a special treatment last time. I can guarantee that her condition will be stabilized for at least half a month under normal circumstances, but she has a drug in her system now. This caused the previous treatment to fail. As a result, the blood tumor in her brain is breaking. The situation is more severe than it was before."

The nanny was so frightened that she said immediately, "Madam Brittney invited a doctor over once. After that, Miss Abby didn't take any other medicine."

"I have to know what medicine she has taken. I can only treat her if I know the properties of the medicine. Abby is in a very serious condition now. Please be fast!" Zachary said quickly.

Harper's face turned dark. He shouted to the nanny, "Go and find out what the medicine was now!"

"I'll stabilize the blood tumor first," Zachary turned around and was going to stabilize the blood tumor temporarily with Shannon Herbal Skill.

Rapid footsteps sounded at the door just as Zachary was about to apply Shannon Herbal Skill. There was a woman's voice, "Harper, I've brought the doctor here. How is Abby?"

"Ah!" Zachary heard the woman screaming. Then, he felt someone rushing towards him. He turned around and saw a woman dashing towards him in her high heels, shrieking, "Who are you? What are you doing to Abby?" "Aunt Brittney, this is the doctor I invited to treat Abby. He..." Sienna explained immediately.

Brittney Kuan saw the silver needles on Abby's face and shouted before Sienna could finish, "What are the needles? You're hurting my daughter!"

"Madam, this isn't..."

Zachary was about to explain, but Brittney cut him off furiously, "Get out of here right now! This is not a place for you to scam!"

"Dr. Loh, please come in and save my daughter," She shouted to someone outside immediately.

As soon as Brittney's voice fell, Zachary saw a person in a white coat entering with a metal medical box in his hand. It turned out that the doctor was Andrew Loh, who was familiar with Zachary. "It's you!"

Both of them exclaimed at the same time when they saw each other.

"Dr. Loh, you are finally here. Please take a look at my daughter's condition," Harper walked over and spoke urgently. It was obvious that he trusted Andrew more.

Zachary had just stabilized Abby's condition. It was very likely that the situation would worsen if anyone acted recklessly. He said in a hurry, "Abby's in a critical situation. We can't act rashly. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable." "You're a Chinese physician. What are you exaggerating about?" Andrew looked at Zachary, "Moreover, I'm here. You don't have to worry about Miss Abby's illness."

"Andrew, this is a matter of life and death. Don't involve the grudge between you and me in this," Zachary said deeply.

"Nonsense! I don't have any grudge against a lowlife like you," Andrew sneered disdainfully.

He looked at Brittney and said, "Mrs. Tang, I'm going to treat Miss Abby now. Please ask the irrelevant people to go out. I don't want the treatment to be interrupted." "You! Get out now!" Brittney turned around and yelled at Zachary.

"Aunt Brittney, Dr. Ching's medical skills are excellent. He was the one who saved Abby last time. You..." Sienna tried to persuade her in a rush. Andrew had been treating Abby for the past few months, but her condition did not improve at all. Sienna did not place much faith in him.

"Sienna! This is my family's business. The decision is up to me!" Brittney shouted. She looked at Harper, "Harper, make them go out now! I don't want them to affect Dr. Loh's treatment."

Harper hesitated for a while. He gestured for two armed soldiers to come over.

"Throw them out!"

The two soldiers approached them. Zachary felt a sense of oppression from the soldiers. They were definitely not ordinary soldiers.

Chapter 58 The Fight in A Rich Family

Chapter 58 The Fight in A Rich Family

"Wait!" Zachary cried out.

"What tricks are you playing? You can't deceive anyone here. Don't delay my treatment for Miss Abby," Andrew sneered sarcastically.

Zachary ignored him and walked towards the bed, "I'm going to pull out the silver needles."

"Who cares about your needles? We don't use such things in Western medicine," Andrew continued to satirize him.

Harper hesitated for a moment before he gestured to Zachary to pull out the needles. Normal individuals would not be able to pull them out because the acupuncture was different from normal acupuncture. The needles spun constantly. Zachary walked to Abby's side and pulled out the silver needles one by one with his left hand. He helped to stabilize and control Abby's condition with Shannon Herbal Skill using his right hand at the same time. Abby's situation was very critical. Andrew also liked to use his so-called high-tech medical equipment and medicines. Zachary was worried that it would be too late for him to save Abby if they messed up.

It took him more than ten minutes to pull out all the silver needles. He used 70% of the aura that he absorbed from the herbs secretly to stabilize the blood tumor.

After that, he wiped away the sweat on his forehead and heaved a long sigh of relief. Abby should be fine under the protection of his aura.

"What's taking you so long? You'll be responsible if the treatment is delayed because of you. Get out now!" Andrew yelled.

"Take them out!" Harper bellowed. The two soldiers came over. Zachary, Lauren, and even Sienna were driven out of the room.

"Dr. Ching, how is Abby's condition?" Sienna asked worriedly.

Zachary panted breathlessly and found a chair to sit down. He said in a deep voice, "The situation is not very optimistic, but I have helped her to stabilize the blood tumor. She should be fine temporarily if nothing goes wrong." "Thank you!" Sienna said. "I'm sorry about what happened just now. I don't know that Uncle Harper and Aunt Brittney... " Sienna became more talkative when she was talking about Abby's illness. She was not as cold as before. "It's okay, everyone has their own thoughts. You can't force them to agree with you," Zachary waved his hand.

"Miss Lim, Mr. Ching, I will find a way to help you with the raw materials," Sienna gazed at them and said. Zachary shook his head, "Curing Abby's disease is more important now. Let's talk about other things later." The door creaked softly when they were talking. Sounds of footsteps could be heard. It was Brittney.

She looked at Zachary and said coldly, "Leave now. This is not a place for you to stay."

Sienna explained immediately, "Aunt Brittney, Dr. Ching saved Abby at the shopping mall last time. He has excellent medical skills. Please let him treat Abby."

"There's no need for him to do that. We've hired a doctor," Brittney looked at Sienna with her long and narrow eyes. She continued, "Sienna, Master Tang is still alive and Abby is ill now. Are you still not satisfied?"

"Aunt Brittney, is this what you think of me? What I care about is Abby's illness, not the Tang family's assets. How can you regard me as a materialistic person!" Sienna said in a serious tone, but she looked saddened.

"You know what you're thinking. You don't have to tell me," Brittney said sharply. She looked at Zachary, "As for you, I don't care who sent you here or what your hidden motive is. You have to get out of here right now! Otherwise..." Two armed soldiers walked over and glared at them.

"Let's go!" Zachary said.

They left the villa through the same route but at a much slower speed. Three of them remained silent in the Hummer with heavy expressions.

"I didn't expect Aunt Brittney would think of me this way," Sienna smiled wryly. She was heartbroken.

"It will be better to say it out if you're sad," Zachary comforted.

Sienna hesitated for a moment and started to talk.

"Uncle Harper is my father's younger brother. My father, Albert Tang, is the eldest son of the Tang family, and I'm his only daughter. Eight years ago, Uncle Harper and Aunt Brittney gave birth to a boy. Tang family is a well-known family in the military, so the assets will only be passed down to a male. Because of this, my younger cousin would definitely be the head of the Tang family in the future."

"However, my younger cousin died in less than three months after he was born because of a strange illness. Uncle Harper and Aunt Brittney were heartbroken. They even suspected me of killing him so that I could be the leader of the Tang family. It was a mess in our family at that time. My grandfather tried to mediate the disputes. It was finally over after Abby was born."

"Unexpectedly, Aunt Brittney started to suspect me for Abby's illness again," Sienna smiled sadly. "They are my younger brother and sister. How can I do anything to hurt them no matter how cruel and greedy I am?"

"I believe in you!" Lauren looked into Sienna's eyes and nodded heavily.

At this moment, a woman as charming as a fairy and a woman as sharp as a blade could relate to each other.

Zachary sighed and thought, "Every family has their own problems! Even these rich and influential families have their own troubles."

Suddenly, they heard the roar of the engines of vehicles. Three of them turned around and saw two military-green military vehicles racing toward them.

"Creak!" The tires of a vehicle drew a long charred mark on the ground when it came to a sudden halt. It was parked in front of the Hummer.

There was another sound of sudden brake behind them. Another military car stopped behind the Hummer. Four soldiers with loaded guns got out of the car. They were staring at Zachary and the others, with their guns aiming at the Hummer. Fortunately, Sienna was not driving fast. She managed to stop the Hummer before it collided with the military vehicle.

"What are you doing?" Sienna growled at the soldiers who were armed with loaded guns.

"Madam Brittney ordered us to bring Dr. Ching back," An expressionless soldier answered. He was still aiming the gun at them.

"How can you threaten us?"

Not to mention Zachary, even Sienna was furious at the soldiers.

"This is Madam Brittney's order. We must take him back!" The soldiers said and were ready to take action.

"I dare you!" Sienna shouted angrily. She took out a black pistol with a flash.

"Come back with us now. This is an order!" The soldier also knew that it was impossible to attack Sienna. Therefore, he shouted at Zachary coldly.

Zachary was extremely furious at that moment. He didn't expect that Brittney was so self-righteous. She drove them out with guns, and now she used guns to threaten them to return to the villa. "I'm neither a member of the Tang family nor the army. Your orders are ineffective to me!"

"We must complete the mission. Get out of the car and come with us immediately. Otherwise, we will take action," The soldier shouted fiercely and approached him.

Chapter 59 The Harm Caused by Doctor with Poor Medical Skills

Chapter 59 The Harm Caused by Doctor with Poor Medical Skills

"I can assure all of you that no one can take me away if you take a step closer to me," Zachary didn't give in at all. He took out his silver needles in the blink of an eye without anyone noticing. Silver needles could be used as a tool to cure diseases and save lives. If necessary, it could also be used as a weapon to kill people.

"Get out of the car now, or we'll start shooting!" The soldier shouted.

Zachary tensed and his expression grew grave.

"Start firing!" The soldier ordered while gesturing.

A loud shout sounded at that moment, "Stop! Put away the weapons."

Another military car was driven over and it came to a sudden halt. Two individuals got out of the vehicle. It was Harper and Brittney, both looking extremely anxious. "Put away your weapons now. Who gave you the permission to shoot?" Harper roared.

The soldiers were startled. Looking at Brittney's indifferent face, they could only take the blame for her.

"You, come back with me to treat Abby," Harper demanded while Brittney walked over to the Hummer. She looked at Zachary, who was in the car, arrogantly.

"I'm sorry, I won't treat Abby anymore!" Zachary said coldly. This was how he dealt with arrogant and self-righteous people.

Brittney narrowed her eyes with a flash of anger. She threw a stack of checks at him, "Tell me, how much do you want? I'll pay you as much as you want if you can cure Abby."

"Money?" Zachary smirked. "Well, not everything can be solved with money. I don't want to make this money!"

"You! How dare you disrespect me! Bring them back now!" Brittney growled angrily.

"How dare you!" Zachary shouted, unrelenting.

Harper's expression changed immediately after answering a phone call. He looked anxious and sad. "Abby just vomited a lot of blood. Her breathing is very weak now."

"What?" Brittney let out a wail and almost collapsed to the ground.

Harper couldn't care about his pride and dignity anymore. He rushed to Zachary and knelt down in front of him, pleading, "Dr. Ching, it was our fault. I apologize to you. Please save my daughter."

Brittney became anxious as well. She wailed, "Dr. Ching, I was wrong to speak rudely to you. It's my fault, but the child is innocent. Please save her."

Hearing this, Sienna became worried. She looked at Zachary and said, "Dr. Ching, I..."

Looking at Harper and Brittney's anxious faces, Zachary said, "Sienna, let's go back to the villa now!"

Sienna started the Hummer immediately. Harper shouted at the soldiers to make way for the Hummer. The Hummer then raced towards the villa.

Looking at the large patches of blood on the bed and Abby's bloodied little face, Zachary was heartbroken. He shouted, "I have treated her when I pulled out the needles just now. Why did this happen? What did you do?"

Only then did Harper and Brittney realized that he had already treated Abby secretly when he pulled out the needles earlier. They felt even more ashamed.

"Dr. Loh injected some medicine for Miss Abby. Within minutes, Miss Abby started bleeding again," The nanny said in concern.

"What medicine was it?" Zachary roared. His hands were moving fast to perform the acupuncture.

The blood was also flowing out from Abby's mouth besides her nostrils and the corners of the eyes. Zachary might not be able to save her if she started bleeding from all of her orifices. "Bring Andrew to me now!" Harper roared.

Andrew treated Abby after Zachary and the others were driven out. Unexpectedly, Abby started bleeding again after he injected his medicine into her body. The bleeding could not be stopped at all.

Andrew panicked instantly. He didn't know what to do. He wanted to take his belongings and run away, but he was detained by the soldiers after receiving an order from Harper.

Zachary treated Abby with Firstie Spike and Drumley Spike to stop the bleeding temporarily.

At this moment, Andrew was brought over by the soldiers. He was extremely frightened. There was a red swollen mark on his face. Obviously, he had been beaten.

"Tell me, how did you treat Abby just now? What medicine did you inject into her body?" Zachary angrily asked.

Andrew was stunned, he kept stammering without giving an exact answer. In the end, Harper punched him and shouted furiously, "Tell him now!"

If you're loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!

Andrew didn't dare to hide anything in front of a furious soldier. He told them how he treated Abby in a trembling voice.

"I normally treated Miss Abby with antihypertensive medicine. But, Miss Abby's bleeding had been stopped just now. So, I didn't use antihypertensive medicine. I gave her some iron and folic acid supplements to compensate for the blood loss."

"Also, I was worried that Miss Abby would bleed again. I chose the latest blood coagulating agent developed by our laboratory to reduce the bleeding and help to heal the wounds."

"What? You tried a new medicine on my daughter?" Brittney was enraged. She rushed over like a madwoman. Harper's face turned pale as well. He didn't expect the doctor whom they had trusted the most would involve their daughter in a clinical trial.

After being slapped a few times, Andrew felt dizzy. He covered his face and explained, "The medicine has been developed for more than two years. It has also been tested many times. There shouldn't be any problem."

"Then why is my daughter in a critical condition?" Brittney shrieked.

Zachary's face turned livid. "Your treatment doesn't work at all. It accelerates the breaking of the blood tumor instead, which will worsen Miss Abby's condition."

"That's impossible. It's the latest medicine, it is not harmful," Andrew roared.

"Medicines don't harm people. But, doctors with poor medical skills will harm people," Zachary stared at Andrew coldly and said. "The reason for Abby's bleeding is because the blood tumor in her brain is compressing the blood vessels, which caused it to be broken. You don't know what happened to Abby, yet you just randomly used the medicine to let her body produce more blood. As a result, there's too much blood in her body and the blood pressure is increased. This increases the risk of ruptured blood vessels and blood tumors. This is why the bleeding becomes more serious. Also, your so-called blood coagulating agent did not help to repair the wound. It coagulates the blood instead. So, the excessive blood remains in her body now and worsens her condition."

Hearing this, Andrew's face turned pale. He collapsed to the ground, muttering, "No, it's impossible!"

Harper and Brittney turned pale as well. They knew Abby's illness was caused by a blood tumor in the brain because they sent Abby for a check-up in the hospital before. The doctor whom they had trusted the most almost killed their daughter. They were extremely frightened and angry at this moment.

If looks could kill, Andrew would have been torn to pieces under their murderous eyes.

Chapter 59 The Harm Caused by Doctor with Poor Medical Skills

Chapter 60 Saving Abby in The Garden

Chapter 60 Saving Abby in The Garden

On the bed, Abby coughed softly and her little body started trembling. Seeing this, Harper and Brittney felt as if their hearts were stabbed by a knife.

"Dr. Ching, please save my daughter," Harper pleaded with tears in his eyes.

Zachary examined Abby immediately, and his expression turned gloomy.

"Dr. Ching, what's wrong with Abby?" Noticing Zachary's expression, Brittney asked anxiously.

"The amount of blood in her body increased suddenly. As a result, the blood tumor ruptured, forming a blood clot in the brain. The situation is very critical," Zachary explained quickly.

Harper and Brittney were shocked. They turned around to glare at Andrew instantly.

"Dr. Ching, can you save Abby?" Although Harper was a soldier, he couldn't control his trembling voice. He sounded as if he was begging Zachary.

Zachary paused for a moment. Then, he nodded, "I can save her."

"Great! Dr. Ching, please tell us if you need anything. We will do our best to satisfy you," Harper said in a hurry.

"I don't want anything else. Is there a place with high plant density in this villa?"

"A place with high plant density?" Harper was taken aback. He didn't understand why Zachary asked so, but he replied immediately, "Yes, there is a garden with many plants behind the villa. Dr. Ching, what do you want from the garden? I'll go and get it for you right away."

"I'm not going to get anything from the garden. I want to take Abby to the garden for her treatment. Get someone to prepare for it now," Zachary said sternly.

"You're going to treat Abby in the garden? Why?" Brittney asked in confusion. It was obvious that she was doubting his decision.

Zachary had no time to explain the reason to them. He said sharply, "There's not much time left. Hurry up and get ready now. I can't cure Abby if the treatment is delayed any longer."

Harper nodded quickly, "I'll prepare for it right away."

Zachary bent down and carried Abby up from the bed carefully. She had a lovely face, but her face was painfully pale at this moment. Zachary felt bad for her.

"Lead me to the garden now!" Zachary said with Abby in his arms.

Harper opened the door and led the way immediately. Brittney and Siena followed behind them.

There was a large garden behind the villa. Although it was already winter, the garden was verdant and full of vitality.

Zachary glanced around the garden and found many precious flowers and plants in the garden, including Clivia, Rosemallow, Ginkgo, and so on. There were even herbs such as Dendrobium Orchid and China root. Zachary suddenly stopped at the entrance of the garden. He closed his eyes and stood still.

Seeing this, Harper and Brittney felt even more anxious, but they had learned their lesson. Thus, they didn't dare to say anything. They could only wait in torment.

A moment later, Zachary opened his eyes. He navigated his way into the garden quickly through the winding paths, passing through the dense plants. In the end, he stopped beside a strangely-shaped pine tree.

If you're loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!

He pointed to the open space under the pine tree, "I'll treat Abby right here."

Zachary closed his eyes and used Shannon Herbal Skill when he arrived at the garden. After feeling the aura of the plants in the garden, he noticed that the aura was the densest near the pine tree. Hearing Zachary, the servants stepped forward and spread the soft blanket on the ground.

Zachary bent down and placed Abby on the blanket carefully. "All of you should leave now. No one can enter no matter what happens."

Brittney was stunned. She did not feel at ease to leave her daughter alone here.

The situation was critical at this moment. Harper, a soldier, said decisively, "Listen to Dr. Ching and leave now. Tell everyone in the villa not to get close to the garden. Also, send someone to guard the hillside connected to the back of the garden to prevent animals from breaking in."

Zachary nodded slightly. He admired Harper for being so decisive and meticulous.

They closed the gate of the garden after everyone left. The garden fell into a dead silence. Zachary closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the ground next to Abby.

After that, he started to apply Shannon Herbal Skill. The aura from the plants rose in a flow of invisible stream and gathered around Zachary's body.

This was the reason why he wanted to come to treat Abby in the garden. This was also why he wanted Harper and the others to leave the garden.

He had to use the aura of the flora cultivated with Shannon Herbal Skill to treat Abby. The cultivation could not be disturbed and it was also not suitable for the others to see as well. Therefore, he asked them to leave.

The other reason was that he had consumed most of the aura in his body when he tried to stabilize Abby's blood tumor just now. Abby was in a more critical condition now. He needed more aura from the flora to treat her. As a result, Zachary had to take her to the garden, which was convenient for him to absorb the aura to treat her.

Zachary was cultivating Shannon Herbal Skill at a much higher speed now because of the critical situation. His skills were doubled, and he was much faster at absorbing the aura.

Normally, Zachary would not absorb the aura aggressively because he was afraid that he would cause harm to the plants.

However, Abby's life was in danger now. He couldn't care about the plants anymore. He absorbed the aura of the flora rapidly.

If someone was standing in the garden at this moment, the person would be surprised to see the plants around Zachary losing their vitality gradually and wilted. Some of the plants that were not strong enough had already begun to wither. Zachary opened his eyes a few moments later. He placed his right hand on Abby's forehead and transferred the aura into her brain.

The blood clot began to dissolve quickly, like snow melting under the sun. The blood was then eliminated through her nostrils. Zachary used the aura of the flora to wrap the blood tumor tightly so that the ruptured blood vessels could be sealed temporarily.

The whole process was not troublesome, but the blood tumor and blood vessels were severely ruptured. Therefore, it was quite challenging for Zachary to control the aura precisely to treat Abby.

Zachary tried his best to control the aura to clear the blood clots and heal the ruptured blood vessels. Sweat was dripping down from his forehead, wetting the blanket in front of him.

Harper and the others, who were waiting outside the garden, looked extremely anxious. They kept looking at the time. It was mentally torturing for them.

It was not even 20 minutes, but they felt as if a year had passed. Nervous and anxious looks were written on their faces.

Brittney couldn't control herself. For several times, she wanted to rush into the garden to check on the situation, but fortunately, she was stopped by Harper.
