Chapter 197 Not Relief, But Cure


    Chapter 197 Not Relief, But Cure


    Upon seeing someone disrespect her father, Nora felt a bit indignant. Nathan and Keagan kept their


    mouths shut, not wanting to argue with a child. However, they still held disdain and mistrust towards


    L in their hearts.


    But now that Kailey''s condition seemed to have improved, they didn''t stop him anymore. However,


    deep down inside, they only thought that L had some basic first aid skills and had just


    alleviated Kailey''s condition slightly.


    After a moment...


    "Okay!"


    L removed the silver needle from Kailey''s wrist and sterilized it with dragon energy before


    putting it away.


    "Kailey, how do you feel?" Keagan nervously asked his wife.


    At this point, Kailey was flushed but shook her head and said, "I''m fine! I''ve never felt as


    comfortable as I do now."


    Looking at L again with slightly softer eyes, she added, "Young man, you really have some


    first aid skills. You''ve helped me out quite a bit!"


    For so many years now Kailey had never felt her heart beat so strongly before.


    "It wasn''t just an alleviation; your heart disease is already cured! You can go to the hospital for an


    examination tomorrow." L shook his head lightly as he spoke calmly.


    Hearing this news left Allison''s family stunned; looking at L incredulously on their faces.


    "L, what are you saying? My mother''s heart disease... it''s cured? Is it true?" Allison looked


    skeptical.


    "Damn! Finally figured out how you managed to win over my sister! You really know how to talk big


    don''t you?! Just because of one needle prick from earlier my mother''s heart disease is cured? Who


    are you trying to fool?" Nathan swore angrily.


    Keagan and Kailey also looked at L with unfriendly eyes once again.


    "Young man, speak responsibly! Allison''s mother has severe organic lesions in her heart which has


    reached the point where she needs an artificial one! Do you expect us believe that curing something


    like this can be done so easily?"


    "If we actually believed in what you said, then there would be no need for further treatment; if


    something happens then it will be your fault. Do you understand?"


    L shrugged his shoulders nonchntly, "It really is cured now! Didn''t I say earlier that if you''re


    worried about it then go get checked at the hospital."


    "Go to hell! Don''t think you can win our family''s approval just because you know a little bit of


    medical knowledge and can ease some symptoms!" Nathan shouted angrily.


    "Don''t even think about it! I''m telling you, my sister would never choose someone like you if she


    wants to find a man," he continued.


    Nathan thought that L was just boasting, attempting to gain approval from his family and


    agreeing to interact with his sister.


    Upon hearing this, L''s gaze turned cold. "Don''t assume that I have any intention of pursuing


    your sister. Even if I did, what''s wrong with a man like me?"


    "What kind of man should your sister be looking for?" he added.


    Nathan sneered at L and looked at him disdainfully before revealing a hint of admiration and


    longing in his eyes. "If my sister is going to find someone, she needs to look for someone like Mr.


    Houghton! He''s the real deal –manding respect from everyone, able to call upon hundreds of


    followers with just one word. That''s what makes a true man!"


    "As for you? Ha ha ha... all you know is some basic medical knowledge – nothing special!" Nathan


    said contemptuously.


    He admired those big shots in the underworld who couldmand respect from others without any


    effort. It was even his dream or life goal to be one someday – leading a group of followers


    wherever he went and being called "boss" by everyone around him!


    L couldn''t help butugh when he heard Nathan speak like this; shaking his head silently at


    how naive Allison''s brother was acting...


    "Mr. Houghton is good enough for your sister? Kid, are your values twisted? Do even people like


    Scar be idols now?" L asked incredulously after hearing such nonsense from Nathan''s


    mouth.


    Allison''s brother changed color immediately after hearing these words; shouting furiously, "What did


    you say?! How dare you call Mr. Houghton that?! You''re asking for trouble if anyone hears this -


    they''ll chop off both of your hands!"


    He then turned towards Allison anxiously, "Sis, stay away from this idiot! Don''t get us involved."


    Keagan and Kailey also red coldly at L, "Youngster, do you not know that loose lips sink


    ships? You can eat whatever food but don''t talk nonsense about people behind their backs


    especially when ites down powerful figures such as Mr. Houghton."


    Allison also pulled on L gently, "L, please stop talking about things like that inside our


    house…we don''t want any trouble."


    Although she had seen Peter treat L respectfully before due to him being the boss at Golden


    Family Hotel where Peter worked under him; however it wasn''t appropriate for them discuss such


    matters here today...


    But Scar was different!


    He was the real tough guy in Ednd''s underworld.


    It was said that he had recently taken over the power of another underground boss, and the process


    had been bloody and violent.


    Those who didn''t obey him were chopped up by his men. Scar had no idea how many lives he had


    taken.


    "No problem! When Scar sees me, he kneels down." L said indifferently, with a disdainful look


    on his face.


    "You... you really don''t know what you''re doing!" Nathan pointed at L and pulled his face skin.


    He didn''t expect this guy to be so arrogant.

    As he spoke, he nced at the door as if afraid someone outside would hear them.


    But that was how it was in this world!


    The more people fear something, the more likely it is to happen!


    Bang!


    There was a loud noise as someone violently kicked open Allison''s door.


    "What the f*ck did I just hear? Someone dared to insult Mr. Houghton? Do they want their whole


    family dead?"


    Apanied by a loud shout of abuse, another young man with green hair walked in with several


    people behind him.


    Their faces were extremely unfriendly!


    "Green Hair, what are you doing?" Nathan frowned and asked suspiciously.


    This Green Hair was Nathan''s "brother," they usually hung out together like brothers do. He never


    expected Green Hair would bring people into his house like this...


    "Nathan, you better thank me! If you can be Mr. Houghton''s brother-inw in the future, don''t


    forget about me! Hahaha..." Green Hairughed wickedly as he looked towards Allison with an evil


    grin on his face.


    "What do you mean?" Nathan asked angrily.


    Keagan and Kailey also looked puzzled.


    Allison furrowed her eyebrows even tighter as she stared angrily at these thugs who barged into her


    home uninvited...


    "What else could I mean? Your sister is so beautiful. Staying home all day would be such a waste


    wouldn''t it? I showed Mr. Houghton your sister''s photo; needless to say how satisfied he was after


    seeing it! Tonight even Mr. Houghton himself came over!"


    "Nathan," Green Hair continued smirkingly "You always say that Mr. Houghton is your idol right?


    Well aren''t we lucky tonight?"


    "Damn it! I trusted you like a brother, and you sold my sister to Mr. Houghton?" Nathan''s voice


    trembled with anger as he grabbed the cor of Green Hair''s shirt, his expression twisted in fury.
