Chapter 119 Talking Conditions
This illness wouldn’t be as easy to cure as it had been in Larissa’s previous life.
She wouldn’t let this chance to make Alvin pay slip away.
Back then, just to ease his suffering even a little, she had pushed herself ten thousand times harder.
Every ounce of his pain had been transferred onto her.
Loving a man had ruined her entire life.
This time, she would make Alvin taste suffering too.

“You’ve been poisoned. This toxin is extremely aggressive and has already spread through your internal
organs.
“If it’s left untreated, you’ve got at most six months to live.
“When it flares up, does your entire body feel unbearably cold?”
Alvin frowned and nodded. “That’s correct. You truly live up to your name as the Wonder Doctor. Can this poison be cured?”
A faint, almost imperceptible cold smile curved at Larissa’s lips. “It can. But the antidote requires extremely rare ingredients. You’ll need to find them yourself.”
Alvin’s gaze hardened with determination. “As long as it can cure me, I’ll find them. Wonder Doctor, please tell me what I need.”
Larissa thought about Truman’s condition. He had also been poisoned. If she gathered all the ingredients, she could create a universal antidote pill that would save both of them.
Right now, she only lacked Everheart Bloom.
But there were other rare and valuable herbs needed as well.
As the black market’s ruler, Alvin surely had the resources and connections.
So she continued, “Frostcrown Lotus, Everheart Bloom, Imperial Rotcap, and Devilroot,” she listed evenly. “If you can bring me these herbs, I can cure you.”
Alvin didn’t hesitate. “I’ll have my people begin searching immediately.”
He knew his own body better than anyone.
Since being poisoned, he had sought out countless famous doctors. None could cure him.
He had even posted a bounty on the Darknet, offering three billion for Wonder Doctor’s help, but Wonder Doctor never responded.
If fate hadn’t brought them together today, he had no more than six months left to live.

Now that he finally had a chance, even if Wonder Doctor was clearly taking advantage of him, it didn’t
matter.
“Wonder Doctor, while searching for these ingredients, if my poison flares up, could you suppress it temporarily?”
He could already feel the cold creeping through his body again.
In her past life, she had drawn blood from her own heart to create medicine to ease his suffering.
She would never be that foolish again.
“I can perform needle therapy to help you, but it will only reduce about 30% of your pain during an episode,” Larissa said calmly.
“The deposit is three billion. Once you’re fully cured, the remaining five billion will be due. As the black market’s ruler, that shouldn’t be a problem for you.”
She wanted clear boundaries between them. She wouldn’t let him entangle himself in her life again.
Eight billion, plus the cost of the rare herbs, would exceed ten billion in total.
Is he treating me like a cash cow?
