"Wonderful!" Joane gasped, eyes zing with awe as she took in Alex''s extraordinary disy of skill


    His perfect methods were nothing short of revolutionary.


    She, a doctor who arrogantly believed herself to have peaked in medicine, suddenly felt humbled and hopeful-like a blind woman seeing the sum for the first time.


    "Be! How are you feeling? Any pain or difort?" Jericho''s voice cracked, disbelief and cautious joy battling inside him.


    Lidia stood trembling beside him, her eyes wide and glistening.


    Neither had dared to dream of a miracle-yet now one stood detly before them.


    "Dad... Mom... this is crazy. I don''t feel weak anymore! It''s gone!" Be touched herself frantically, amazement painting her


    face.


    Her heart thumped loudly, stronger andrea


    alive than she''d ever known.


    "Oh, thank heavens! It''s truly gone!" Lidia cried out, voice choked with gratitude. She nearly fell to her knees, intending to grovel before Alex.


    "No, Mrs. Kane-please!" Alex swiftly stepped forward, gently preventing her from bowing. Gratitude this raw was foreign to him-overwhelming, ufortable.


    Be turned towards Alex, her eyes suddenly ame with adoration and something deeper, far more dangerous.


    -the one she''d love till herst breath, Her cheeks flushed crimson, her heart silently screaming that Alex was the destined one- fated to share a life with her, to father their beautiful children, to stand beside her until they both grew old and gray.


    "Yes!" she screamed silently to herself.


    Alex had dragged her from the abyss. Her life now belonged utterly and entirely to him.


    Her gaze burned into Alex, fierce enough to melt steel, making Alex avert his eyes awkwardly, shaken by such naked devotion.


    "Be, it''s Mr. Alex who saved you. Without him, you''d still be trapped in


    darkness,” Lidia reminded warmly, oblivious to her daughter''s dangerously intense gaze.


    "Alex..." Be breathed, voice trembling. "You saved my life. If you ever need me- I''m yours. Completely."


    Shock jolted through the room.


    Did Be Kane just openly surrender her body and soul to this stranger?


    Owen''s face burned scarlet, jealousy scorching through his veins.


    Alex quickly interjected, sensing the room spiraling into chaos.


    Be''s face was too red, her emotions too unstable.


    "You''re wee. Don''t forget-I''m getting paid for this."


    "Is my daughter truly cured?" Jericho asked cautiously, his voice taut with anxiety.


    He''d spent years consulting renowned doctors who had always concluded the condition could only be suppress healed. He had to hear it clearly.


    ver fully


    "Notpletely cured," Alex admitted, holding everyone''s gaze firmly. "But she won''t suffer any rpse for at least five years."


    Calmly, he pulled out a gleaming medicinal pill. "However, if she takes this, she''ll build a heart stronger than steel. Her illness


    will never haunt her again."


    Thank you-oh God, thank you!" Lidia stammered breathlessly, ands shaking.


    Alex turned swiftly, his tone now ice-cold. "Mr. Kane, since your daughter Isn''t dying anymore, isn''t it about time you delivered your part of the bargain?"


    Jericho straightened, regainingposure.


    "Ah, the Heaven Root, right? Please walt for me in the lounge. I''ll join you shortly." He signaled urgently to his hutler, who immediately approached.


    "Follow me, Mr. Alex."


    Alex nodded sharply. Turning to Josephine, he instructed clearly, "Exin to Be how to use this miracle pill and wait here. I''ll return soon with the Heaven Root."


    "Got it," Josephine acknowledged briskly, stepping closer to Be


    Alex moved confidently, following the butler into thevish lounge


    He took a seat, waiting patiently-but his patience was tested as Owen strutted in, nked by three hulking bodyguards.


    "I appreciate you saving my fiancée, Be. Here''s a million dors. Consider it payment."


    Owen sneered arrogantly, gesturingzily as a briefcase of money was ced contemptuously before Alex.


    Alex''s eyes narrowed dangerously. "I only ept the Heaven Root."


    "Heaven Root?" Owenughed mockingly, cruel amusement flickering in his eyes.


    "A lowlife like you wouldn''t know its worth-it''d be pearls before swine! Take the money; it''s more than enough for you to live,vishly and stay far away from Be."


    Fury ignited within Alex, molten and unforgiving. "You better hand over the Heaven Root, now."


    Owen snapped his fingers casually; the bodyguards stepped forward, blocking Alex''s path menacingly.


    "Your desires mean nothing. I choose your payment."


    "Where''s Jericho Kane?" Alex demanded sharply, his voice edged with steel.


    "Who knows?" Owen shrugged arrogantly, his smirk deepening with spiteful satisfaction.


    Alex closed his eyes momentarily, channeling his aura perception until he found Jericho Kane-cowering behind a wall, cowardly eavesdropping on the confrontation.


    Rage fueling him, Alex unleashed a devastating punch into thin air aiming directly toward Jericho''s hiding ce.


    Owen burst intoughter, mocking Alex''s absurd gesture.


    But hisughter died abruptly when, behind the wall, Jericho felt an invisible,


    merciless force m into him, hurling him violently across the room.


    Furniture shattered beneath his crashing body, a deafening noise echoing through the mansion.


    Silence gripped the room in choking fear.


    Jericho realized far toote that he had recklessly provoked a monster.


    Alex was far more lethal than he''d imagined—able to kill him with ease if provoked further.


    Panicked, battered, and bloodied, Jericho stumbled to his feet, hastily snatching a precious box from his table-originally


    intended for Owen to handle Alex.


    Now, he was desperate simply to stay alive.


    "I-I have the Heaven Root!" Jericho screamed frantically, bursting into the lounge, blood streaming from his lips, broken bones jutting painfully beneath his skin. Fear radiated from him, raw and unmistakable.


    "Take it, just take it and get out!"


    "Uncle!" Owen protested furiously, eyes shing dangerously. "You promised me the Heaven Root!"


    "I''m sorry, Owen," Jerichogasped desperately. "I promised Alex first-I can''t afford to provoke him further. Please, Alex, take it and go!"


    Owen red murderously at Alex, his voice venomous. He motioned swiftly to his guards.


    "Take the Heaven Root from him! I''ve already paid a million dors-it belongs to me!"


    But Alex''s eyes flickered with deadly intent.


    His voice came like a chilling whisper, sending shivers down everyone''s spine. "If


    you want to live, I suggest you reconsider."
