Chapter 474 Not Dead Yet


    Professor John couldn''t believe the oue. His painstakingly developed drug, which had earned


    him the Nobel Prize, had failed to be effective and instead, appeared to have resulted in the


    patient''s death. There was no way the professor could admit any fault with the medication; he had


    been awarded the most prestigious acknowledgment for it. Acknowledging an error would not only


    damage his own reputation but would also mar the credibility of the Nobelmittee members.


    He had to pin Kind''s demise on the patient''s own health condition. After organizing his thoughts,


    Professor John spoke up, "Avery, I''m sorry! I did everything I could! While my newly developed drug


    is indeed effective, your father-inw was simply beyond saving. At his age and with his health, not


    even God could have saved him."


    Professor John and his team bowed three times toward Kind in a disy of respect for the


    departed. Daniel, who found the entire scene unbearable, stood up and called out, "He''s not even


    dead, why are you bowing?"


    Daniel''s assertion stunned everyone present, like a bolt of lightning from a clear blue sky. Professor


    John froze for a moment before he nced at the screens disying various readings. To confirm


    Kind''s state, he even lifted Kind''s eyelids to check his pupils. Finally, Professor John verified Kind''s


    death: "The patient is dead. There is no heartbeat or respiration. How can he not be dead?"


    "When heartbeat and respiration cease, does that mean death? Death is not determined by the


    body but by the soul. As long as the soul has not yet departed, even if the body appears dead, it''s


    only ''apparent death.''"


    Hearing Daniel mention the soul, Down let out a derisiveugh. "Hahaha! Country boy, do you think


    this is your vige? Talking about the soul and religious beliefs? That stuff might fool the gullible in


    your vige. Do you think the descendants of New York''s top families are simpletons like you? Do


    you think they are as na?ve as country bumpkins?"


    "Religion has been passed down by priests, and only the ignorant would question it," Daniel replied,


    undeterred by the ridicule.

    Even if everyone else doubted him, Jessica would choose to believe in Daniel. She had witnessed


    his medical skills firsthand and knew his nature well. While Daniel often seemed unreliable, when it


    came to healing the sick, he never joked around.


    Therefore, Jessica looked at Daniel intently and seriously asked, "Is grandfather really not dead?"


    "Of course he''s not dead! But I''m the only one who can save him."


    "Well, what are you waiting for? Go ahead and save him! And if you can''t, you''ll have me to answer


    to!"


    "Honey, don''t worry, your grandpa is my grandpa too. Not only can I bring him back, but I can also


    make him healthy again."
