Chapter 28 Ignore His Pleas
Harrison had not done any horrific mistakes.
Furthermore, Lorenzo had taken good care of her before that night. Yelena could not ignore his pleas.
“Rys...”
Right as Yelena was about to say more, Emrys smiled and said, “I understand, Lena.” He walked over to Harrison and kicked
Patrick aside. “Open your freaking eyes and take a good look at this. This is the real Needle of Ninth Revival.”
Emrys then took out all the needles inserted into Harrison and redid the insertions.
His movements were fluid and swift.
What was the most peculiar was how the tip of the needles would hum whenever he lifted them.
These moves...
Patrick was taken aback by the scene.
Not even my teacher can replicate this nimble acupuncture technique! Who in the world is Mr. Lund?
Right as Emrys was done with the acupuncture treatment, Harrison vomited à mouthful of black blood. That was the clotted
blood that Patrick had suppressed in him with the wrong acupuncture technique.
“Dad, how are you feeling?” Rowan lunged to his father’s side.
After taking a slow breath, Harrison said, “I’m feeling much better, and I don’t have that tight sensation in my chest anymore.
Thank you, Mr. Lund.”
“Thank you, Mr. Lund! Thank you, Ms. Lynch!”
Rowan prostrated before Emrys and Yelena.
“Mr. Lund.”
Just as Emrys was about to leave the auction with Yelena, Thomas suddenly walked over to them.
The head of the Sunderland family had a look of reverence on his face as he stood in front of Emrys.
However, he did not know that Emrys was Empyrean Lord, and neither did he know that Emrys was Emerentius, for South River
King had been the one to convey the messages.
If one were to ask why Thomas still held Emrys in such high esteem, one would find out that the

answer had to be traced back to the day of Cordelia Group’s product launch.
That time, South River King had sought out the heads of the families and informed them that the man behind Cordelia was
Empyrean Lord, and he had asked them to set a good example for the
rest.
All of them knew that South River King had a brother who was Empyrean Lord’s subordinate, so South River King was
trustworthy.
Furthermore, South River King had made an order worth five billion.
Betting on a bright future with one billion was worth it.
Thomas had been at the product launch, so he had learned that Cordelia was part of Emrys‘ found family. In other words, it was
highly likely that Emrys was Empyrean Lord’s brother–in- law.
That was why Thomas had respect for Emrys.
The other heads of the families shared the same thought as Thomas, save for Benedict.
Benedict had witnessed Emrys‘ wrath first–hand, so he knew how different Emrys was from others.
Emrys had a domineering, regal demeanor.
Along with the attitude of South River King and the others, Benedict speculated that Emrys was not Empyrean Lord’s brother–in–
law. Instead, Emrys was likely the Empyrean Lord himself.
Sometimes, an enemy would know one better than one’s friend.
Benedict’s guess was right, but how he would use the information was another story.
Emrys responded to Thomas in a friendly tone, “What’s the matter, Mr. Sunderland?”
He could tell that Thomas had a favor to ask of him.
Emrys was not a cold–blooded individual. His ruthlessness was reserved for his enemies.
As long as the other person treated him with respect, Emrys would respond with equal respect.
With a smile, Thomas said, “Mr. Lund, I saw you saving that man with acupuncture. May I know if you’re a doctor?”
Emrys nodded. “In a way. Could it be that you have someone ill in your family, Mr. Sunderland?”
“I’ll be honest with you, Mr. Lund. My father is sick. He hasn’t eaten for three days, so I’d like to consult you about his condition.”
“Sure,” Emrys replied before asking Yelena to head back herself first.

He then followed Thomas to the Sunderland residence.
