Silence engulfed the room.
Everyone ignored Benjamin.
A shuddering Winslet hid behind Benjamin.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
She wondered, "That man doesn't even care about the Moore family! Who the hell is he?" Winslet tugged at Benjamin's sleeve uneasily, trying g to make herself less noticeable. The atmosphere was oppressive, and she could feel the presence of danger around her. Slowly, time passed by
It was unusually quiet in the room.
Everyone looked at Benjamin and wanted to see if the latter could handle this situation
"How dare the Moore family beg for mercy when Ms. Hayes and Mr. Lowe didn't even do so! This young lad doesn't know his place"
Someone also muttered. "The Moore family is pretty influential. Benjamin's uncle-in-law is very powerful in the capital"
"Yes, the Moore family is well-established, and it's pretty famous here. Perhaps the family will get some respect."
"You're right. Even Ms. Hayes will give the Moore family an ounce of respect."
The oppressive silence dragged on.
Benjamin could hardly keep calm anymore.
So, he raised his head and gazed at Nolan directly. Nolan seemed unaffected by this and maintained a cool expression. Although he was weak, he was aware of everything. After a while, Nolan smirked and replied, "Respect?"
He looked up with a menacing gaze. "Do you even deserve it"
Benjamin was stunned and stood frozen on the spot.
At the same time, the rest of the onlookers gasped.
Someone asked hurriedly in a low voice, "Who is this man? If he can remain by Ms. Houghton's side, he must be someone like Mr. Simmons
Many people were worried that they might not understand the situation and end up in t
in trouble like Benjamin,
"This man may be weak, but he possesses a dominant aura. I'm afraid he may be Phantom Healer.
""Nolan Fisher
As soon as Nolan's name was called, the room fell into dead silence.
Everybody thought, "Nolan Fisher? Is this a joke? Not only Caleb Simmons is here, but Nolan is, too?"
They did not know Phantom Organization's Zodiac of Asuras, but they were aware of Nolan's public identity.
Nolan was the head of the Ethereal Medical Group
Additionally, he was the capital's miracle healer, and he was known to be emotions.
mysterious and temperamental. His actions were always influenced by his
Nolan purely saved people, but he often killed them.
Therefore, he was more evil than righteous.
That was how he was known as Phantom Healer. Chapter 70
Plus, everybody at Ethereal Medical Group was intimidating.
Therefore, it was imperative that one should never offend Nolan
The onlookers sighed and scolded the Larson family again silently. They thought. "Damn the Larson family!"
"Mr. Fisher."
A thin man in a mask and cloak came over with a small bottle.
Nolan nodded.
He raised his arm, half-embraced Madeline, and gently covered her eyes with a cold hand.
*Be a good girl and don't look."
Madeline looked up at him, "Nolan
"Shh." Nolan raised his other hand and pressed his index finger against Madeline's lips. "Im just going to teach him a lesson. I'm already being merciful."
Nolan added nonchalantly. "If you help him beg for mercy again, I'll get angry. You know that I can't control the consequences."
Then, he lowered his head and whispered in Madeline's ear, "If I wanted to kill, nobody would be getting out alive. I'm doing this out of respect for
you.
Madeline stiffened and pursed her lips. "I didn't intend to beg for mercy... I just want to see what will happen. Im an adult now, and it's nothing to me"
Nolan smiled and said, "All right, then"
Benjamin was already ghastly p
pale. Still lur.
he pretended to be calm. "What are you going to do?"
Nolan ignored Benjamin, and nobody dared to help him, either.
Next. Benjamin was restrained by Caleb's bodyguards, When he struggled, the bodyguards kicked him in the knee.
"Ouch!" Benjamin cried and fell down on one knee with a thud. Nonetheless, he straightened his back and refused to yield.
However, facing so many opponents alone was akin to facing the devil.
Benjamin gritted his teeth in anger and looked at the person holding the medicine bottle. I'm the son of the Moore family. My uncle-in-law... My uncle-in-law is a member of the Top Ten Families in the capital. Laying a finger on me is akin to declaring war on the Top Ten Families!"
Nolan sneered.
Winslet panicked, and a pained expression appeared on her face. However, she dared not approach Benjamin.
At this moment, even though Winslet knew Benjamin was in trouble because of her, her timid and selfish side told her that she must not get involved.
After all, Benjamin was the son of the Moore family, and it did not matter if something happened to him.
Things were different for Winslet. She was a young woman, and her life and future would be ruined if she got involved with these people, Winslet covered her mouth and sobbed as she watched Benjamin being force-fed medicine.
Soon, the corners of Benjamin's mouth were stained with medicinal liquid.
As soon as he was released, he collapsed and panted heavily as if his spine had been broken.
Looking disheveled and frail, Benjamin also realized that m
Benjamin was horrified. "What did you feed me?"
Nolan took a few steps forward.
nobody would respect him just because he was from the Moore family.
Meanwhile, all members of the Larson family retreated from Benjamin in fear.
