A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4158

Upon seeing that Cedric was not only alive but also awake, everyone’s faces were filled with astonishment.

They couldn’t believe that he survived the poison pill. Judging from the recent situation, Cedric was undoubtedly doomed!

Could it really be possible that the poison pill could cure illness?

Everyone present were alchemists, so they obviously knew that poison pills couldn’t cure diseases. Yet, when Jared gave Cedric the poison pill, Cedric didn’t die. Instead, the wild energy that had been emanating from him disappeared!

As a matter of fact, this poison pill had been inspected by many and was indeed confirmed to be poisonous.

“How could that be possible?”

Finding it hard to believe, Thaddeus darted forward and released a surge of spiritual energy into Cedric’s body.

Moments later, Thaddeus stepped back looking dumbfounded.

“Is he… Is he really cured?”

Thaddeus appeared somewhat dazed.

Wyatt, Hartwin, Maxence…

A crowd of alchemists gathered around and began to examine Cedric’s health!

They were eager to know if Cedric had been successfully treated.

If Jared had truly managed to find a cure, they could certainly learn a thing or two from him.

After all, the purpose of the Alchemist Fair was to provide a platform for numerous alchemists to come together and learn from each other.

Bernard was standing at the side and observing his own son, who was being scrutinized by everyone around him as if he was an exhibit.

“It’s strange, truly strange. How can a poison pill possibly cure an illness?”

Hartwin looked at Jared incredulously and asked respectfully, “Mr. Chance, can you possibly enlighten me on how you managed to accomplish this? Of course, every alchemist has their own ultimate skill. It’s okay if you don’t want to share yours…”

Hartwin knew that every alchemist had their own ultimate skill. Even at the Alchemist Fair, where everyone shared and learned from each other, no one would reveal their ultimate skills.

Up until then, Cedric was still utterly confused, unsure whether he was dead or alive.

Bewildered, Cedric looked at Bernard and asked, “Father, am… am I still alive?”

“Son, you’re alive. You’ve recovered. Everything is all right now. It was all my fault. I shouldn’t have forcibly separated you and Scarlette. I lied to you. Miss Scarlette isn’t dead, she has been living in Epea all along.”

Recalling Jared’s advice, Bernard hurriedly told Cedric the truth.

Upon hearing this, Cedric was completely taken aback. After a long moment, tears welled up in his eyes. “Father, please don’t lie to me. Is it true that Scarlette isn’t dead?”

“She isn’t dead, she really isn’t. Once we get back, I’ll let you marry Ms. Scarlette. After all these years, I’ve come to understand that all this talk about matching social status and prominent families are all nonsense. As long as you’re doing well, nothing else matters. I promise I won’t interfere with your love life anymore.”

Bernard was filled with regret. Had it not been for Jared’s successful treatment of his son, he would have been consumed by self-loathing!
