Chapter 3: Couples - Dignity of Man
“How could it be?” The first ones to react were those doctors.
They looked at the curves on the monitor, they were rather low curves for a normal human , but what
did that stand for?
That meant a dead man had the vital sign of life again and went back to life, like, literally.
How could it be? There was no record in the medical history that someone could make the dead come
back to life. This was a miracle!
The doctors and nurses were stupefied.
Kaley was hopeless a few moments ago, however now came the miracle.
Jacob successfully saved her father! She was so excited that she was quivering, and her breasts were
also trembling sexually.
“But he still needs some time to wake up.” Jacob had just resurrected, he nearly had no mana in his
body, so just now he could only save Brian from dying, but to wake him up Jacob needed more practice
to regain his strength.
“You mean, you can not only save dad, but also wake him up?” Kaley was not sure about what she
heard, she thought she had hallucinations.
“That’s right.” Jacob affirmed her.
As long as he would regain some of his strength, he wouldn’t need the silver needles to save Brian’s
life.
And this time, no one had ever doubted him. It wouldn’t be too hard for Jacob to save a vegetative
patient since he was able to bring a dead man back to life.
Jacob looked at Finn, “ How about another bet, doctor?”
Finn looked pale as if he was ill. He would win as Brian Harris was already dead, but how could Jacob
save him?
Nevertheless, Jacob did what he said no matter how Finn felt about him. And Finn certainly didn’t want
another bet with him.
“No, I agree that your medical skill is excellent. I was being rude to you, you have my apology.” Finn
said with his teeth gritted. He apologized but mentioned nothing about the stake of their bet.
“So you said sorry and that’s all? Do you remember our stake?” Jacob sneered.
Would it be easy for Finn to muddle through? Was it possible?
Everyone, including the doctors and nurses, were looking at Finn at that moment.
Finn promised to slap on his own face and announce to the public that he was a quack. Would Finn do
what he promised? If he did so, his career as a doctor would go to an end. Finn had been in charge of
Brian’s treatment for a long time, and he kept a rather good relationship with the Harris family, so Kaley
was going to say something for Finn to save his face.
But when she looked at Jacob, she found Jacob was heading toward the door.
“Let go of the stakes. I never expected you would do that. Moreover, I save him because he is my
father-in-law, no because the bet with you. And, you’d better stop coveting her...” Jacob walked out of
the door after saying these words.
Sometimes it was better not to force on someone than to compel someone. If Jacob forced Finn to fulfill
his promise, Jacob could be an aggressive guy. Now Finn was not only a quack but also a disgraceful
liar.
The ward was as silent as a grave.
Everyone was looking at Finn in a different way. Compared to Jacob, Finn lost completely, judging from
both medical technique and mortality.
No one said anything about Finn, but deep down in their hearts, they looked down upon him. Finn
looked around and saw those expressions in their eyes; he knew his image had been destroyed.
“Ahhhhh! Jacob! You’d better wish you won’t end up with me some other day, or else I would kill you by
myself!” Finn said, gritted his teeth, now he hated Jacob deep to the bone, yet in the ward he could
only held his hatred back.
Kaley stared at the door, asked herself whether this Jacob was her lazy and weak husband. She was
quite sure she knew Jacob in the past, even better than he knew himself. But the Jacob just now was
still that same Jacob she knew?
Kaley was confused; she found that it seemed she had never known this man. Or was the Jacob right
now the same Jacob she knew?
......
Jacob stretched himself after walking out of the ward. He felt it hard to adjust to this body, which had
almost no strength. He had sensed that the mana on the Earth is so little that he couldn’t regain power
through practicing alone.
However, the most important thing for him was to find a place with more mana in the air and practice
there, “At least I need to reach the Gasification Phase and step on the road of magic, this time every
little strength matters.” Jacob thought to himself, and walked out of the Riverside Hospital.
As he was at the gate of hospital, he heard a woman calling him loudly, “Please wait a second, Mr.
Reyes! Mr. Reyes!” Jacob turned back and found a good-looking middle aged woman.
She was definitely a nerd-killer!
The middle aged woman looked at Jacob excitedly, and walked towards him and said, “Excuse me, are
you Mr. Jacob Reyes?”
Jacob nodded. He stared at the mature and charming woman, and asked, “What’s the matter?”
The woman looked cheerful hearing Jacob’s words and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Reyes, my name is novelbin
Winona, here is the thing, I heard that you could save a dead man’s life, what a miracle! My husband
does not feel good these days, so I want your help...”
“How the news spread so fast!” Jacob thought to himself.
“As long as you promise to help, we would appreciate you no matter my husband gets better or not. We
can do anything we can to pay back whenever you ask as a reward.”
Winona said so fast that she was afraid Jacob might refuse.
Jacob eyed Winona up and down and concluded she must be from a noble family, according to her
expensive suit and elegant conversation.
Jacob thought to himself, “since there’s little mana on the Earth, I can hardly rely on daily practice.
What if she could provide me some treasures like ginseng or gems? Those treasures must be helpful
to my nourishing mana.”
So Jacob agreed her to save her husband with a nod.
Winona relaxed when she saw Jacob nodding, and said, “Please follow me, Mr. Reyes.”
Jacob walked into another VIP ward, following the guidance of Winona. When he saw the man on the
bed, he immediately found the health problem of the sick man.
“Darling, I've invited Mr. Reyes over." Winona said excitedly.
The man on the bed, who looked to be in his late thirties, was slightly over weight and not in a very
good mental state.
Seeing Jacob entering, his eyes twitched slightly, obviously he did not expect that the one who could
bring the dead back to life was such a young man.
He immediately rose from the bed and greeted Jacob, "Mr. Reyes, hi, my name is Aaron Watson, it's a
bit presumptuous to invite you here today. I am just...."
Winona found her husband was reluctant to talk about his illness, so she took over, "Let me tell you,
three months ago, my husband started to have erectile dysfunction. He was perfectly fine before that.
Ever since then, he can hardly have an erection......."
Speaking of sexual life, Winona’s face turned red.
After all, she was talking about intimate things about herself in front of a strange.
Aaron's face was also red. It was just too embarrassing to talk about this kind of thing.
"We went to many doctors and used many methods, but none of them worked. Besides, my health was
getting worse day by day."
Aaron also did not want his wife to talk about such things with another man, so he interrupted the
conversation.
Jacob smiled. He knew what was wrong with Aaron as soon as he entered the ward, even though it
was the first time he saw Aaron.
Accompanied everyday by Winona, such a charming and sexy woman, however, he could do nothing
but watch. What a terrible feeling! Jacob just thought about this feeling and felt pity for Aaron.
It must have been quite a bitter time for this couple.
However, Jacob gave a positive answer, "I can heal you."
"Really?"
Aaron and Winona looked at Jacob with excitement.
It's hard not to get excited.
Over the past three months, Aaron dared not face his wife. After all, the basic dignity as a husband was
missing. That would be extremely painful for any man, especially after seeing so many famous doctors,
trying so many methods, but all methods were in vain. What is more, his health condition was getting
worse day by day, which almost made him desperate.
Winona, on the other hand, was even more painful than Aaron. As a normal woman at her ripe age,
living the life of a widow for three months, her suffering was no less than her husband.
