At that moment, all the negative energies were converging rapidly in one direction.
Zeke turned toward the direction they were heading and was shocked to find that they had all entered Thomas'
body.
In an instant, a thought came into his mind. Thomas most probably has connections with Netherworld! I wonder
how big is Netherworld's scheme in Eurasia? There seem to be signs of them everywhere. I must do a background
check on Thomas. It looks like I must attend tonight's duel.
Emma gave Zeke a once-over as she exclaimed, “How the heck are you so powerful? I'm amazed you managed to
knock Thomas' bodyguard, the Muay Thai champion from Turlen, out with just one move!”
“Don't forget that I'm a soldier,” was his reply.
“I've seen many soldiers, but none are as impressive as you are.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Well, that's because I'm a top soldier.”
A top soldier could be considered a modest remark for a person who held the title of Great Marshal.
However, Emma assumed that Zeke was being boastful.
If you're truly a top soldier, why would you mingle with someone like me who is a bottom feeder? You should be
hanging out with the Great Marshal!
In the end, she decided not to pursue the topic further. “Zeke, I think we should leave this hospital as soon as
possible as it is the property of Thomas' family. What if he had set a trap? We won't be able to get away then.”
“It's fine. We can stay here. Once I've taken him down, I'll obtain this hospital and gift it to you as a resource to
rebuild your business,” he replied nonchalantly.
Emma was speechless.
His words are getting more and more outrageous! We should count ourselves lucky to be able to survive this time.
Zeke did not comment further and went to check on Amelia, who was resting in another ward.
He decided not to tell Emma for the time being that he had cured Amelia's leg disease and that she only needed to
rest for a couple more days before she could walk again.
It'll be a nice surprise for Emma when Amelia starts walking again.
At that moment, Amelia's legs were being injected with a nutrient solution in the ward.
She spread her arms wide open in excitement the moment she saw him. “Carry me, Zee! Carry me, Zee!”
Zeke carefully lifted the little girl. “How are your legs, Amelia?”
“I can feel my legs now, Zee!” Amelia happily shared the good news with him.
“Now that my legs can move, I'll be able to get up and walk in a few days.”
“Congratulations, Amelia!” After examining her legs, he continued. “I have good news for you. Would you like to
hear it?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes!” she exclaimed while giving him an expectant look.
“Judging from your current situation, you'll be able to walk within three days.”
Hearing this, Amelia cried tears of joy. “Just three days. After those three days, I'll be running around like other kids.
This is awesome! I've always dreamed of walking.”
“Do you have any dreams, Amelia? I'll help you fulfill them once your legs are well,” Zeke inquired.
Amelia stared straight at him with unblinking eyes.
“I've had this dream since I was young. C-Can you make it come true?”
Zeke reached out and ruffled her hair. “Of course.”
“C-Can I call you Daddy?” Amelia squeaked out.
In a flash, his heart melted.
I can't believe that a five-year-old girl's biggest wish is to call me daddy. She sure is a poor thing and must've led a
miserable life.
“Of course,” Zeke said as he hugged her lovingly.
“Daddy,” Amelia called out using a girlish tone.
