A Cursed Mask, A Medical Legend

Chapter 10 I will pay for you

　　"Ivanna, are you okay?"

　　Ivanna did not expect Declan to show up. She looked surprised and happy, but immediately became worried again. She said to Declan, "Declan, just leave."

　　Declan looked at them coldly and said to Ivanna in a low voice, "Ivanna, don't worry. I won't let them hurt you! Who are they?"

　　Ivanna hesitated for a moment and did not speak, but the three men in front of them became arrogant. They pointed at Ivanna and scolded, "B*tch, how would you dare to look for a gigolo? What a shameless couple!"

　　As they spoke, the three men rushed up and tried to hit Declan. Declan's face flashed with anger, and he dodged the fist coming at him. Then he grabbed the man's shoulder and lifted his knee to hit him in the stomach.

　　"Ah!!" The man screamed and fell to the ground with covering his stomach.

　　At this time, the other two men also hurled their fists at Declan. Although Declan was not bad at fighting previously, he was still at a disadvantage to fight with three strong men by himself. But somehow, when he looked at the motion of their fists at that instant, he felt that they were so slow, just like the slow-motion in a movie.

　　Declan easily avoided their fists, and then punched them in the face.

　　"Ouch!"

　　In the blink of an eye, the three men were beaten up by Declan and fell to the ground. They pointed at the two of them and scolded, "Ivanna, you b*tch, you cheated the money of the village chief, yet you dare to beat us up. Just wait and see, this is not over!"

　　"Ivanna, do you owe them money?" Declan asked Ivanna in confusion.

　　Ivanna bit her lips lightly and said to the three people firmly, "I have already told you that I will return the money! Haven't I send all my salary back to the village these past two years?!"

　　"F*ck, b*tch, do you think that the village chief cares about your money? Just wait, and you, br*t, this is not over yet!" The three people pointed at Declan and Ivanna and said fiercely.

　　"Why? Do you still want to get beaten up?" Declan threatened with a gloomy face.

　　At this time, Susan's Porsche arrived and stopped at the side of the road. Susan wound down the window and asked Declan, "Is there any problem? Do you need to call the police? I know the police in the City Public Security Council."

　　The three men were dumbfounded when they saw the Porsche. This kind of car would never be seen in their village. Looking at Susan's cold and noble temperament, they could tell that she was a big shot at first glance.

　　"You... Just you wait!" The three people's hearts raced. They did not expect Ivanna to have such powerful connections in the city. They struggled to get up and ran away.

　　"Ivanna, are you okay?" Declan asked Ivanna with concern.

　　At this time, Ivanna's face was very pale. She forced a smile to thank Declan and said, "Declan, thank you."

　　"It's not a big deal. Let's go home." Declan held Ivanna and comforted her with a smile.

　　"Director Quaite, thank you for your help just now. My house is just at the front. I won't bother you any further." Declan said to Susan, who was in the car.

　　Susan looked at Declan and Ivanna, then nodded slightly and asked the driver to continue driving.

　　After they had reached home only Declan asked with concern, "Ivanna, who were those people just now? Do you owe them money? Is that why you went out to work at night?"

　　Ivanna nodded. She did not want to involve Declan in her own problems, so she changed the topic and asked, "Declan, is that Director Quaite just now your friend?"

　　Ivanna and Declan had been neighbours for so long, so she roughly knew the life of Declan. When did he get acquainted with such a rich friend? She could tell that the car must be very expensive at a glance.

　　Declan knew what Ivanna was thinking. She did not want to get him into trouble, but they had been neighbors for so long and Ivanna took good care of him. He treated her like a family member, so how could he ignore Ivanna?

　　Declan said to Ivanna with a serious face, "Ivanna, didn't I tell you already? I am now the attending doctor of Chiao's Hospital. That was the director of our hospital just now. You have been taking care of me all this while. Now I have the ability to take care of you."

　　"Are you serious? Chiao's Hospital, the one which is on par with the Springhill Hospital in the city?" Declan did bring it up to Ivanna before, but she did not believe it at all. How could a top hospital like Chiao's Hospital employ Declan, who had not even graduated from university, as an attending doctor?

　　However, when she saw Susan driving a luxury car to send Declan back today, Ivanna was starting to get convinced.

　　"Ivanna, I'll take care of you in the future!" Declan refrained from his usual teasing and looked at Ivanna very seriously.

　　Ivanna's eyes were teary and her heart felt sour. All this while, she was just a woman who was alone and had no one to rely on in the city. She encountered countless times when she had felt helpless and wronged, but Ivanna had been so used to dealing with them by herself for so many years now. But now there was a man who said that he wanted to take care of her.

　　All this while, Declan did not seem to be serious and always showed a grin on his face. However, Ivanna knew Declan well and knew that under his playful appearance, he had a very serious side. He was not good at using words to express his promise, but as long as he was determined, he would definitely do it!

　　Ivanna did not want to drag Declan into this. She knew how complicated her problems were. Declan was still young, and now he had a promising job. He should live his own life.

　　"Declan, thank you. It's getting late and you should go back to rest. I'm fine now." Ivanna pretended to flash a relaxed smile and said to Declan.

　　Declan saw that it was getting late, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I should go back to rest as well. Ivanna, you should rest early too. You can rest assured that no one can bully you as long as I am here."

　　When Declan returned to his own home, he had already decided to help Ivanna. Now that he had an annual salary of one million yuan, it should be enough to pay off the debts for Ivanna.

　　Lying in bed, Declan suddenly thought of something. Previously, when he was fighting with those guys who pestered Ivanna, he could slow down the speed of the other party's punch. Now, thinking of that scene, he was really amazed.

　　Declan still remembered the feeling at that time. Everything came from that strange energy in his body, and the source of this energy came from his golden finger.

　　Declan looked at his finger and did not know whether it was an illusion. His finger was shining faintly, but when Declan wanted to take a closer look at the light, it disappeared.

　　It took a lot of energy to save those patients during the day. Although he had regained some energy after a few hours of sleep, it was obvious that the energy did not recover much.

　　"Could this energy only be used once? Is it used up now?" Declan suddenly sat up from the bed. His bright future depended on this golden finger. If the energy was used up and the golden finger was useless now, what would he do?

　　"Can't I replenish the energy?" Declan looked carefully at his fingers, trying to find a way to replenish the energy.

　　Just at this moment, Declan's eyes lit up and he felt dizzy. He felt as if he had been sucked into his fingers.

　　When Declan's eyes could focus again, he found himself in a space with golden sparkles. This space seemed to be boundless, and there was nothing, not even the ground, or the sky. He was just floating in the air.

　　"Where is this place?" Declan's face was full of confusion, but too many strange things had happened recently, so he was not surprised.

　　At this time, the air in front of Declan began to stir, and the golden light between heaven and earth kept shimmering and lined up in the air in front of Declan, forming groups of words.

　　[Mercy Manual]

　　Declan read these words carefully and was surprised to find that this was actually a meditation method!
