Chapter 3220


    “Fine! I’m not afraid,” said Miya, ring angrily.


    “Shut up, all of you! How dare you argue in Dad’s room? Do you have a death wish? Whoever


    dares to utter another word will immediately be imprisoned on the family’s ancestralnd to reflect


    on their faults,” Lawrence warned coldly, which instantly frightened the others into silence.


    Even Enrique could only look on defiantly without daring to say anything. After all, Lawrence was


    now the head of the family, so he had to obey.


    Seeing that Lawrence had taken control of the situation, Jared stepped forward to check on


    udius’ condition. After conducting a thorough examination, he could not help but frown.

    “What’s the matter, Mr. Chance?” Cloud asked softly.


    Jared did not answer. Instead, he turned to Lawrence and enquired, “Who has been treating your


    father recently?”


    “The three of them…” Lawrence gestured toward the three alchemists before asking. “Why? Is


    something wrong?”


    “Do you still have the medicine he has been taking? Let me take a look,” said Jared.


    Lawrence nodded and retrieved a bottle from the bedside. It contained the medicine udius: took


    every day.


    Taking the bottle, Jared opened it and took a sniff. The alchemists clearly looked uneasy when they


    saw that and even snuck a nce at Enrique.


    Realization seemed to dawn on Jared after he smelled what was inside the bottle. Without wasting


    any time, he sent a wave of spiritual energy into udius’ body, then quickly pressed on a few


    points on thetter’s body with his fingers. After that, he slowly stood up and said, “Your father does


    have a stubborn ailment, but it’s not so serious to the point that it’d be fatal that quickly. The reason


    why he has be so weak is because someone drugged him. I’ve temporarily sealed off his


    vitals, so he’ll be fine these next few days. I’ll also write a prescription, and you can prepare the


    medicine ordingly.”


    Shocked, Lawrence demanded, “What? Someone drugged him? Who did it?”


    Jared held up the porcin bottle. “The medicine your father takes every day contains Frost Honey


    Blossom. Although it’s a type of panacea, it cannot be taken for extended periods. Prolonged use


    will cause one’s body to grow increasingly weaker.”


    Upon hearing that, Cade could not help cursing loudly, “D*mn it! I wondered why Grandpa’s


    condition wasn’t getting any better. So, this is why.”


    For him to swear showed just how enraged he was.


    Meanwhile, Lawrence knitted his brows after hearing Jared’s answer and fixed the three alchemists


    with an icy stare. Feeling his cold gaze on them, the trio trembled with fear.


    “Don’t listen to that brat’s nonsense. What does he know at his age? There’s absolutely nothing


    wrong with the medicine we gave,” one of them solemnly assured Lawrence.


    “Whether or not there’s something wrong with the medicine is not for either of us to say. I’m sure


    Yellow Blue City has an Alchemist Guild. All one has to do is ask them to determine whether I’m


    spouting nonsense,” Jared responded calmly.


    “Go and consult them at once,” Lawrence immediately said to Cade.


    Just as Cade was about to set off, however, the alchemist piped up and said, “We examined your


    father’s condition and created this pill to treat him. It was all so he could get better, but we were


    unaware that Frost Honey Blossom isn’t suitable for prolonged use.”


    Lawrence was infuriated by the alchemist’s exnation.


    “You were unaware? It’smon knowledge. Even a rookie alchemist would know that. The three


    of you don’t look all that young. Don’t tell me neither of you knew about it?” Jared asked, a smile


    tugging at his lips. His response left the alchemists bereft of words.
