Chapter 608 Reason
“You—” Harry gazed at the young boy before him in resignation. Despite being only fourteen years old, that boy was a major in the army. Not to mention, the boy was adept in medical skills as he was the one to save Zachary’s life.
Besides, after Jason was gravely injured, Donald took charge of the entire Edenic Heights medical team. Although Donald was the same age as someone who had just graduated middle school, he was very experienced in arranging and delegating all the tasks.
Judging by his demeanor, one would assume Donald had been in the military his whole life. Additionally, he was a stubborn person. When Harry came for an inspection earlier, the young boy had refused him in a similar manner.
Jonathan stared at Donald. “I’ve seen you before. Since you forbid me from entering, then I will not go in. However, the cleanliness here is compromised, so why are we not transferring these people to the local hospital?”
“Those with less severe injuries have been transferred out. The rest who remain here are those in critical condition. Their lives might have been saved, but they cannot handle exaggerated movements.”
Donald bit another mouthful of bread as he spoke. “I’m afraid they will all die from excessive blood loss if we try to move them to the car. Therefore, they must remain here.”
“In that case, who can I visit?” Jonathan asked calmly. Donald pointed at No. 8 Villa. “The first floor has been modified into an infirmary. Zachary, Yasmin, and Jason are all in there. Their physiques are stronger, so they won’t die from the interruption of a visitor.”
Jonathan smiled faintly after listening to Donald’s response. He immediately turned around and strode toward No. 8 Villa. Covered in sweat, Harry gritted his teeth and glowered at Donald before hastily turning on his heels and leaving.
On the first floor of No. 8 Villa, Jonathan’s eyes glinted coldly at the sight of Yasmin and Zachary, who were still lying unconscious in their beds.
Jason was the only person who was awake at that moment. “Mr. Goldstein…”
Jason propped himself up on the bed when he saw Jonathan. Jonathan quickly summoned a stream of gentle spiritual energy to press Jason back onto the bed.
Jonathan sat on the chair and uttered, “Cut that pretense. You’ve always been full of yourself and behaved frivolously in front of me. You do not need to put on the polite and humble act now. Tell me. What exactly happened?”
Jason chuckled. “It’s nothing major. A few days ago, three Grandmasters came here to stir a ruckus. We confronted them, killing two and capturing one alive in the process. What you see now is the result following the commotion.”
Jason sighed when he noticed Jonathan shifting his gaze onto the two unconscious people.
“Zachary suffered four knife slashes, and one of them pierced through his abdomen. Fortunately, his vital organs were unharmed. With his physiques, he can achieve complete recovery in about one month with the help of spiritual energy after his condition improves. As for Yasmin…” Jason’s frown deepened. “She has a mortal body, and in order to kill the cultivator from the Osborne family, she used her own blood as a catalyst to poison her opponent. Although we arranged for her to undergo blood transfusion as soon as possible, the toxin had still spread to her entire body.”
“Is there no way to neutralize the poison?” Jonathan asked while taking in the sight of Yasmin, who was covered in bandages.
“Donald and I tried to neutralize the poison in her blood, but to no avail.” Jason sighed while looking at Yasmin. “I can’t believe a mortal like her could produce a poison with the potency of instantaneously killing a cultivator in the Grandmaster Realm upon exposure. She’s truly a genius in utilizing poison.”
The next second, Jonathan took out a red color box.
Jason received the box, and the moment he opened it, a faint herbal smell wafted out from the box.
“This… Mr. Goldstein, you found the medication!”
“Can this medication save Yasmin’s life?” Jonathan questioned Jason.
Jason was stunned as he looked up at Jonathan.
Jonathan left Jadeborough to search for the life-saving pill to treat Sophia’s condition. Jason could not believe Jonathan was willing to use the medication on an assassin after all the trouble he had gone through to obtain that life-saving pill.
“Mr. Goldstein, I did my research on this medication. This pill contains the most neutral energy that can sustain a person’s life force, but it cannot be used for detoxification purposes.”
Jonathan nodded slightly upon hearing that.
“I got it. I’ll leave the patients in your care. I shall take my leave now to attend to some other matters.”
Without elaborating further, Jonathan got up and left.
Harry hurriedly opened the car door when he saw Jonathan exiting the villa.
