Chapter 2: I Can Save Him
What a joke!
Jacob had been unbeatable in the universe for hundreds of years. As the well-known Emperor of the
Dark Realm, thousands of beautiful women were competing to spend a night with him.
He could have different women for a hundred years if he slept with 10 women every night. What’s
more, all of them were the prettiest ones in their planet.
So why would he bother with such an ordinary woman on Earth?
Jacob would never tell her about her health if he wasn’t resurrected to the body of the son-in-law by
adoption to their family.
Suddenly Kaley’s phone rang before Jacob could answer.
Kaley’s face turned pale when she picked up the phone.
“What has happened to my dad? OK, I’ll be there as soon as possible.” Kaley answered with a
trembled voice and hang up the phone.
And then Kaley ran out with Fiona and Hayley.
Jacob frowned. From the memory in this body, no matter what the attitudes of Fiona and Hayley were,
his wife Kaley never embarrassed him except she never slept with him.
Besides, his father-in-law treated him so well, as if he was his own son.
Now that he was resurrected to this body, there must be some special destiny between this Jacob and
him. “Let me handle the things you left to me.” Jacob said to this body, sighed and followed Kaley out.
...
“Get out of our car!”
Fiona was vexed when seeing Jacob followed them to the car.
She believed the words of the witch that a wedding could make her husband better, however right on
the day of the wedding, her husband went into a vegetative state, so from her point of view, Jacob was
an ominous man.
And she even suspected that the witch was appointed by Jacob, and their aim was to let Jacob marry
her daughter.
What’s worse, Jacob was proved to be a lazy and weak man. Fiona was extremely sorry for her
daughter as she married such a man.
“Mom...” Kaley stopped Fiona from continuing.
Now that Jacob agreed to divorce, he was now a stranger to their family. She felt that there was no
need to be angry with him.
They all kept silence during the way to the hospital.
In the VIP ward in the Riverside Hospital
“What happened to my dad, doctor?” Kaley saw several doctors around her father performing
emergency treatments on her dad when they arrived.
“The situation is not optimistic, Ms. Harris. You’d better be prepared.”
Kaley was frozen when she heard what the doctors said.
Jacob looked at the doctors for a while and shook his head, saying, “It won’t work. You are accelerating
the passing of his life, not saving him.”
Jacob’s remark, in a straight form, was “you guys were not professional enough to save him”.
“Who are you? Do you know medical treatments? Had you ever learned about first-aid?” One of the
doctors glared at Jacob angrily.
The doctor was sure that Jacob was questioning their medical skills! As a professional doctor, how
could he put up with it!
“Don’t listen to him. Please save my husband first!” Fiona was almost crying.
And then she turned to Jacob and shouted, “What did my husband do to deserve your curse! You are
the one who should die, not him! Get out of my sight and don’t mess around here, otherwise, you will
bear all the consequences!”
“Just go out please.” Although Kaley was not using harsh words, she obviously thought Jacob was
messing things up.
She even thought that Jacob was acting weird because she mentioned about divorce. Now she though
that Jacob was really disgusting, although she never thought in this way before.
“Are you deaf to my sister? Get out!” Hayley added, looking at Jacob with hatred.
At this very moment, the electrocardiogram on the monitor became a flat line.
“How could it be...Just now he is turning better...” The doctor who just yelled at Jacob opened his eyes
widely. It was hard for him to believe what was happening now.
After a while
“Sorry, Ms. Harris, we’ve already done what we could.”
“You have my condolences.”
The doctors declared Brian’s death, and the last hope of the mother and daughters was vanished.
“It’s all because of you! He could have survived if you weren’t cursing him!” Fiona pointed at Jacob and
yelling like insane.
Jacob frowned.
It had been years since nobody dared to point at him like this, as those who dared were killed by him.
But he returned to calm soon, after all this woman was his mother-in-law. The last thing he could do for
the family was to bring his father-in-law back to life, and then he could be a stranger to them.
There was no need to bother with a normal woman, who was as weak as an ant in his eyes.
Kaley looked at Jacob in his eyes, her last good feeling for him was erased when she heard him
cursing on her dad, although she knew her father’s death had nothing to do with Jacob.
Kaley held back her tears and took care of her mom together with Hayley.
“He’s not dead yet. I can save his life.” Suddenly a voice rang in the ward when everyone was grieving.
This voice gave the family hope again. Who said this? They could give anything as long as Brian could
get back to life.
They turned with a grateful look until they realized those words were from Jacob.
“No way. Mr. Harris has lost vital signs, although we don’t want to see this, but scientifically speaking,
Mr. Harris had passed away.” Said Finn Lee, the doctor in charge of Brian.
Jacob shook his head and blamed the doctors in his mind. He continued, “It’s true I can save him,
however, it would be too late even for me if we keep talking like this.”
Finn looked awkward because it was Jacob, the son-in-law by adoption who was questioning his
professional team. He was not old, and was promoted to lead doctor in the Riverside Hospital after novelbin
graduating from a top university. He was jealous of Jacob as he married a pretty woman like Kaley
although he had no career.
How could this crap coward be the son-in-law of Kaley’s family!
And now the coward doubted his medical skills? Finn was in a very bad mood.
“You said you can save Mr. Harris? Now that you doubt my ability of medical judgment, if you can save
Mr. Harris’s life, I would jump down from here.” Finn sneered at Jacob.
“I don’t need you to jump down from here. If I can save his life, I need you to slap in your own face and
announce in public that you are a quack. Do you want to bet with me?” Jacob said, he saw the greed
for Kaley from Finn’s eyes. Now that Kaley was his wife, he needed to protect her and punch on the
face of the man who dared to covet her.
Finn hesitated, however it was a fact that Brian was already dead, there was no chance he could lose
the bet, so he answered, “Good. If you failed to save Mr. Harris, you need to kneel down in front of me,
apologize and announce to the public that you are a crap.”
Kaley knew Jacob was bragging again, as she was aware of what he was capable of.
“Why are you still messing around here, Jacob?” Kaley was completely disappointed at Jacob, and her
voice was so indifferent.
Finn heard Kaley’s word and smiled to Kaley proudly, “Oh Ms. Harris, maybe your so called husband
can find a way to save a dead person?”
He hoped Jacob would begin his treatment right now, and screw it up. He would be so delighted to see
him fail.
“Is there a hope...?” Kaley looked at Finn with a pitiful look.
Finn’s heart trembled when he saw her like this. A glimmer of greed flashed in his eyes.
“Just let him try.” Finn said, however inside his mind, he was mocking at Jacob.
Obviously Brian was dead; he would like to kill himself if Jacob could save a dead man.
Kaley’s heart also trembled when she heard this. What if, even with a small possibility, Jacob was not
bragging this time?
She asked in a low voice, “Jacob, will you save dad...really save him?”
Jacob nodded, “Yes, I need a kit of needles.”
Jacob could see that Brian was in a state of fake dying, his vigor was flowing out of his body, and now
the medical equipment could not detect his low vigor, so the doctors thought he was dead.
However Brian would be truly dead if he didn’t start his treatment soon. Otherwise, even he could do
nothing to save this poor man.
A kit of needles was sent to the ward in time.
Jacob took some silver needles, and inserted them into Brian’s body with a weird technique, without
hesitation and without a pause.
He was stopping the vigor from flowing out of Brian’s body. It sounded incredible, but to Jacob it was
nothing.
After inserting the needles, Jacob’s forehead sweated and his hand began to tremble.
It seemed that he overrated this body. He is literally so weak now. But the good news was, he had
finished most parts and there was only last step left.
Jacob inserted the last needle into Brian’s acupuncture point, and inserted a little mana inside his body
to Brian’s body through the silver needles.
“Do you want to continue with your hands trembling like this?” Finn asked. He convinced himself that
Jacob was doing nothing but acting like he was helping. Finn could imagine Jacob would kneel down
before him later and acknowledge himself as crap.
Kaley was also disappointed. She regretted that she was so innocent to believe Jacob could save her
dad. She closed her eyes and accepted the fact that her father had passed away.
However, suddenly a digital voice rang in the ward.
The flat line on the monitor turned to curves and began to fluctuate!
