Chapter 47
Even though Madison and Josephine spoke softly, Gary heard them
huming, Gary turned to thein. “You’re so arrogant, you little rascal!”
Kesseth and
Marty
“Las save him.”
came over to tell them to leave. “What are you looking at? I’ve gone through so much effort to invite Mr. Wagner here. If you upset him, are you going to save
Gary ridiculed, “You’re too full of yourself.”
Wing his fly whisk dramatically, Gary continued, “Fine, then. Don’t send them away. Let them see what I can do, so they’ll know what I’m truly capable of.”
Hearing that, Kenneth stopped trying to keep them out and even allowed them to enter the room
Gary chanced next to the bed and then walked around it. He kept waving his flywhisk around thebel.
Suddenly, Gary pulled out a talisman paper from his sleeve and slapped it on Marry’s head. “Leommand your soul to retum.”
Right after Gary shouted, Marty’s eyes snapped open.
Josephine was taken aback. “The patient has woken up.”
Kenneth and Carel were overjoyed. They broke into tears and rushed over to Marty, reprimanding him at the same time.
Gary smugly remarked, “with all my experience, it’d be embarrassing in front of the youngsters if I couldn’t do even this much.”
“That’s right. You’re the best, Mr. Wagner!”
“We’re so grateful, Mr. Wagner. You’re truly a lifesaver for our family”
Gary looked at Madison, expecting her to apologize or look at him in awe.
But Madison just raised her chin and asked, “Is this supposed to be impressive?”
Sitting on the bed, Marty stared blankly in a daze. He didn’t say a word or move at all.
Garycleared his throat “He’s just shaken up, and he’ll be fine in two days”
“Aren’t parts of his soul still missing? I’m seeing his soul being incomplete here.” Madison walked up to the bed “though he’s awake, only one out of his seven soul pieces is here. He can’t move, talk, ee think.”
Kenneth asked, “is that true, Mr. Wagner?‘
Looking embarrassed, Gary demanded, “Stop questioning me, Didn’t you hire me to stir him up? Now that ‘s awake, pay up now,”
With his impatient attitude, Gary was no longer as refined and mystical as how he had portrayed himself earlier
“Forget the money. I just wanted Marty to wake up, not end up like zombie”
“You fraud
Gary shouted, “Fraud? That’s nonsense! You asked me to wake up Marty, and I did. If you want him back to normal, that’s going to cost extra ”
Kenneth was still hoping for the best “What’s the price
Five milion dollars.”
*Five million dollars? Even if we sold everything wow, we couldn’t come up with that amount. Carol broke down in tears.
Kenneth clenched his teeth and started bargaining with Gary.
But Gary was insistent about the price. “Hand over yoo thousand dollars for now. When you put together five million dollars, reach out to me
Gary swing his thywhisk. “Unless you pay, I’ll take back the only piece of his soul that’s left.”
Kenneth was too scared to say mo.
Marry was at least conscious now.
With a look of resignation, Kenneth pulled out his phone to transfer the money.
Madison stopped Kenneth from making the transfer. He’s asking for five million dollars because he knows you can’t afford it, so he’s pricing it ridiculously high. His expertise in only good enough to bring back one piece of Marty’s soul.”
