Everyone looked out of the window, and sure enough, there was a ck silhouette kneeling despondently in the heavy rain.
He simply knelt, without saying a word nor uttering a sound.
He was like a wandering ghost.
At the sight, goosebumps crawled across everyone’s skin.
Who on Earth was that man?
Was that another nemesis who came to taunt them?
Chase looked at the person and his brows furrowed slightly, That man was Vinson.
When everyone saw that it was Vinson, they immediately burst into an outcry.
“Why is Vinson kneeling at our doorstep?
What was he intending to do?”
Rosaline asked as she looked at Vinson with a trace of resentment in her eyes.
Vinson had always been Rosaline’s doctor.
She should be grateful to him.
However, times had changed.
That b*stard had actually helped the Zhao family to plot against them!
He was literally worse than a beast!
Had he finally found guilt in his conscience Was that the reason he came to kneel down in regret?
Everything was toote now!
“Let’s ignore him! He’s a double-faced traitor!” Rosaline hissed as she mmed the window shut with a loud bang!
However, Chase walked out of the house with an umbre.
At his action, the Song family was so angry that they were in a stomping fit!
“F*ck! You two traitors! You both deserve to die together!”
Holding the umbre, Chase stood in front of Vinson had been kneeling in the rain for hour now.
His whole body was trembling.
As he raised his head and saw Chase’s grim face, a burning sensation welled up at back of his eyes.
In his opinion, Chase was a peerless doctor, a miracle worker.
But Chase was also the person to whom Vinson felt the most remorse.
Doctors should have a benevolent heart.
Vinson lived a greater part of his life holding onto that belief.
Yet, when he was treating Frank, he found himself indifferent and blind-minded.
Now that Chase was in front of him, Vinson felt even more inferior.
Due to his shame, he felt he had no right to show his face around Chase again in this lifetime.
However, when the reporters questioned Vinson about it previously, he felt conflicted.
He couldn’t go against his conscience and lie to the reporter by saying that the picture was fake.
If only he had denied its authenticity, the Song family would not fallen into such a boundless hell.
He felt ashamed and full of regret. Vinson could no longer bear the weight on his conscience. Therefore, he came to the door of the Song family to kneel in the rain
“Divine Doctor Lu, I have wronged you! I’m sorry for everything I had done to the whole Song Family!” He put his hands together, rubbing them.
“When the reporters interviewed me, I questioned the source of the picture of the thesis! I swear that it must be Lincon who took the photo secretly!”
He mbered forward and continued, “I have said all these things, but I don’t know why the media collectively choose to turn a blind eye to it.”
“I’m the one who wreaked havoc on you and everyone in the Song family!”
Vinson’s weary face was wet with rain. He looked deadbeat and was in low spirits.
He was choking with sobs, looking like an orphan abandoned by the world.
He wanted to exin the grievance in his heart. He yearned to let Chase know that he was not a despicable viin.
That was all he wanted to tell.
“How did you get that thesis?” Chase asked.
After a brief pause, Vinson answered in a faltering voice, “I saw it by ident when I helped a friend in sorting out the documents a while ago. Unfortunately, the thesis was iplete and there was only half of it. It
was also said to be a student’s graduate thesis.”
He squirmed a little as he added, “However, even that half of the thesis filled me with trepidation, hence I loaned it for further scrutiny. I didn’t expect that it would be used by Lincon, that vile man, to frame you.”
Chase nodded. “Alright, I get it now.”
Saying that, he turned and walked away.
The rain continued to pour down onto Vinson to cleanse him of his sins.
Seeing Chase’s decisiveness, Vincent couldn’t help but felt sombre.
“Divine Doctor Lu, are you still not willing to forgive me?” Vinson thought.
That was understandable. After all, the grave sin hemitted caused the entire Sung family to fall into depravity How could Chase so readily forgive Vinson?
With that thought in mind, Vinson’s tears poured from his eyes like the rain.
He continued to grovel, allowing the rain to wash over his body. It was as if this was the only way he could be purged of his sins.
He remained there the whole night.
An entire night, where everything shifted out of focus as his mind became befuddled.
It was not until dawn pierced the sky that he got up shakily and shuffled away in a wreck.
“Divine Doctor Lu, I will find a way to save you and the Song family, Vinson thought.
Even if he had to sacrifice everything, he would atone for his crimes.
Wait, didn’t Chase mention something the previous night?
He asked Vinson how he got the thesis!
Right!
“I need to find that thesis!” Vinson pped his head.
Even if he had to journey to the ends of the Earth, Vinson knew that he had to get his hands on the full text!
Although the first half described the detrimental properties of the herb, Vinson had a feeling that the second half would describe the miraculous healing properties of the herb!
it had to!
“Divine Doctor Lu, wait for my return!” Vinson turned around and looked at the house behind him.
All the members of the Song family immediately cursed Vinson as he left.
Ethan squeaked, “Sh*t! He just knelt for a night and then left! Is that the attitude of a remorseful person?!”
Thedy next to Ethan echoed, “Tch! What a famous doctor! All he wants is to take credit and keep his reputation clean. He must have been bought over by the Zhao family. That’s why he framed us!”N?velDrama.Org content rights.
“The Zhao family! We will forever be sworn enemies! Yes, the reason the Zhao family wants us dead must be because Be and Chase offended Daniel previously!”
As the members of the family spoke one after another, their animosity was eventually aimed at Chase and Be.
Like an avnche, their hostility snowballed and gained momentum as their discussion ensued. Then, with the sheer force of a stampede, their resentment hit Be, burying her alive.
Be was distraught.
It was already the third day.
The Song family had been swirling around in the vortex of condemnation by the public for three days.
Be’s heart was in her throat at this moment.
She recalled something.
Chase suddenly pinched Be’s cold, dainty hand and softly whispered “I’ll go with you.”
Be was startled as tears welled up in her eyes.
For them, words were not needed to understand the other’s thoughts.
With just a look from Chase, Be immediately felt at ease.
He knew clearly what she was troubled about.
Be nodded wistfully. “No matter what, we have to give them an exnation.”
The duo ignored the usations from the Song family and walked out of the house with their umbres.
The ce they were headed to was HeptionVige.
Three days had passed.
It was the day Be promised to sign the contract and collect the goods from them.
Thinking about the group of herb farmers and the poor old man, Elder Li who was so hopeful about the future, Be couldn’t bear to be cruel and to forego her promises, She could not abandon them.
Even if this trip was not toplete the purchase but to break the contract, she had to give them a clear exnation.
They drove to Heption Vige, holding their umbres as they got off the car.
When she saw the scene in front of her eyes, Be abruptly burst into tears.
Leaning into Chase’s chest, she choked and
sobbed as words failed her.
The beautiful sea of purple flowers from Inree days ago was nowpletely immersed in turbid water. It was a depressing sight indeed.
The forlorn rain added to the scene, filling the air with dreariness.
A group of at least thirty consisting of children and elderlyy soaked in the heavy rain as they knelt in front of the Heption Herbs that were already destroyed beyond recognition. They were distressed and helpless, however, their sobs were silent.
“Oh Heavens, are you punishing our Heption Vige?” An elderly man spread his arms and genuflected.
“What on Earth did we do wrong that we have to suffer like this…” He lifted up his head upon the sky as raindrops poured onto his face.
“How can we live without the Heption Herb…”
