Chapter 494
James stared at the men in black suits before him.
They were postured threateningly, and their veins popped in their foreheads, looking like well –fuelled fighting machines revving their engines. This piqued his interest.
Who on earth was this girl, and why was she surrounded by so many bodyguards?
Cynthia yelled angrily. “Luther, what the hell are you doing?!”
Luther was a plainly dressed man around forty years old. He had a diamond–shaped face and short hair.

He responded courteously, “My lady, the master had ordered us to follow you around. He has some business to deal with right now, but he arrive here
tomorrow morning.” “I‘m no longer a kid! Can he stop sending people to stalk me?”
Cynthia was visibly upset. She pulled on James‘ arm and stormed right into the group of bodyguards.
She started punching and kicking them, and none of them dared to fight back.

He ordered, “Follow them.”
“Yes, sir!”
The group of men tailed the two.
James was unwillingly herded into a crowded shopping mall.
At a resting area in the shopping mall.
Cynthia patted her chest as she muttered, “Finally, I got rid of them.”
Then, she fished out a few hundred dollar notes from her purse and handed them to James.” This is for interrupting your lunch, sir.”
James took them and said, “Thanks.”
He wanted to leave immediately.
Cynthia danced happily like a bird who had finally found freedom.
However, as soon as she stood up to leave, she felt dizzy. She quickly face–planted onto the floor and passed out after letting out a loud yelp.
James noticed the ruckus, so he looked back.

He noticed Cynthia was lying unconscious on the floor. He furrowed his eyebrows as approached her, and gave her some light nudges, “Hey, are you okay?”
Immediately, he knew something was wrong with her.
Her face was deadly pale, and her hair was slick with sweat. Sweat droplets formed in between
her brows.
James reached for her pulse.
Her wrist felt like ice.
James frowned upon narrowing down the possible reasons for her condition. This was a big problem.
Right then, loud, thudding footsteps drew closer.
The bodyguards, led by Luther, had caught up with them. Before they even arrived, Luther screeched. “Do not touch her!”
He marched over and ordered his men. “Send her to the hospital, right now!”
James tried to dissuade them “She might not make it to the hospital in time.”
Upon hearing this, Luther took out a pill and attempted to put it into her mouth.

James snatched it from his hand to inspect it. He smelled it and even licked it. The pill felt like burning metal, and left a scorching
sensation on his tongue. “What are you doing?!” Luther screamed. He snatched the pill back from James and forced it into her mouth again.
James explained, “This pill has too much fiery energy. It may stabilize the negative energy in her body for now, but it will do significant damage long term. As time passes, this p
her.” Luther glared at James. “Are you a doctor?”
The reason he rushed to this city all the way from the north was for the medical conference.
He wanted to find some experienced doctors to treat Cynthia‘s illness during the week of the conference.
“Yes. Let me try something.”
James told the bodyguards, “Form a circle and face outwards.”
They looked at Luther.
Luther brought Cynthia to Cansington all for the sake of
getting medical intervention. Since they were in Cansington, the City of Medicine, he might have a higher chance of meeting a talented doctor who could help them.
Taking a gamble, he demanded they follow James‘s orders. “Yes, sir!” The bodyguards forced a circle around them and faced outwards.
