Chapter 509
Daniel entered He glanced at Yoseph lying on the bed and minced no words. “The Watsons had James arrested. Based on the video clip alone, could you be sure that James is guilty? You know who he is. This is but a small obstacle for him. My advice is for you to let it go.”
“G–general Highsmith, James has caused so much trouble for my family. How could I let it go?” Yoseph said weakly, his face full of rage. Carelessly, Daniel said, “To get James arrested, would you sacrifice your life? James‘ medical skills are the best. No one will be able to save you now that he‘s poisoned you. You only have a few days left. Consider it carefully. If you choose to let it go, I‘ll be able to help you and put in a good word to James. At the same time, I advise you to stop going after the Callahans.”
Yoseph thought about it. James was incredible.
Even modern medicine was unable to cure him.
He wanted James dead, but he did not want to die. “As a favor to you, I‘ll forget about it. As long as James cures me, I‘ll stay away from the Callahans as well.” Daniel turned to leave.
He went to see Richard instead.
He told Richard the same thing he told Yoseph. Richard was afraid of dying as well.
He did not want to lose his life just like that.
After careful consideration, he decided to let the whole thing slide, as long as James cured him.
Thanks to Daniel, the matter was resolved.
At the lock-up at the police station.
James was still fast asleep.
Footsteps echoed outside. The grill creaked open. “James...”
Daniel walked in
James awoke, getting up from the wooden bed. When he saw Daniel, he frowned. “General Highsmith?”
Daniel smiled. “The Blithe King has been notified of recent incidents. He thinks you should save the Blade of Justice for a more dire situation. If you use it now, you would be able to escape, but people will be shouting about it and petition to revoke the sword.”
After that, he said carefully, “Let me make myself clear. You best deal with me if there‘s anything you‘re unhappy about. Don‘t you dare go after my wife or her family. Gavin and Zavier are just the first examples. Repeat the same mistake again and I won‘t be so kind.”
