Chapter 96 I Don’t Need Money

River, in his white robe, walked out the door. Sophia approached River anxiously and asked, “Elysian Yu,

how’s my husband?”

“Luckily he met me, otherwise Chris definitely wouldn’t have ended up well!”

“Thank you, Elysian Yu!”

Sophia thanked him, then entered the room, with Daniel and Isabella following.

After River’s treatment, Chris, who had previously been unconscious, was now awake and even sitting up

on the bed’s edge.

“Honey, are you alright?” Sophia asked with a coquettish concern. “You scared me to death. If anything

had happened to you, I would die too!”

“Heh!” Isabella couldn’t help but let out a scoff. “You, die? If Dad actually had an accident, like hell you

would die! You’d fight me for The Evans‘ estate!”

“Isabella, mind your language!” Chris scolded his daughter.

“Every time you take this cheap woman’s side, I think she really has clouded your judgment!”

“Get out!”

“I will not!”

Chris had no way to deal with his daughter, so he just turned to thank River. “Elysian Yu, you’ve saved me

twice in one day and are my lifesaver. Sophia, go fetch my checkbook.”

Sophia brought the checkbook, and on a check, Chris wrote an amount of fifty million dollars, then tore it out and offered it to River. River glanced at the check but didn’t reach out to accept it, calmly refusing.

“As a doctor, I treat and cure people, not for the sake of money.”

“Elysian Yu, you’ve saved my life twice, and I owe you. I won’t be at peace if you don’t accept.”

“I absolutely cannot accept money. If I took it, it would dirty my hands. However, I heard The Evans have a The Grass of Tamed Dragon. It’s a miraculous plant, rather useless staying with The Evans. I was hoping

you could let it serve its purpose by giving it to me.”

The Grass of Tamed Dragon?

Chris furrowed his brow. He pondered for a while and then shook his head: “I’ve never heard of The Grass

of Tamed Dragon. If I really had it, I would certainly give it to you.”

Chris was only pretending not to know about the plant. He certainly knew about The Grass of Tamed Dragon and that it was in the hands of his ex–wife, Ava. However, his statement wasn’t entirely false.

Having been divorced from Ava for a long time, The Grass of Tamed Dragon was in her hands, which definitely didn’t belong to The Evans.

“It’s late; I won’t stay long. Chris, you’ve just recovered from a severe illness; you must rest well. Don’t let

a lack of rest cause you to fall ill again in a few days. If I’m no longer in New York by then, there might be

no one here to save you.”

After saying this, River turned to leave. Isabella blocked his way, calling out, “Wait a moment.”

She then looked at Daniel and asked, “Daniel, has my father’s illness truly been cured by Elysian Yu?”

Daniel glanced at Chris and immediately came to a conclusion.

“Not only has his condition not improved, but it has also actually worsened. Initially, there was only one centipede in your father’s stomach, now there are two. Those centipedes will completely drain your father’s essence in three days at most. His body will wither immediately.

If you want him to survive, I’m afraid you’ll have to take out The Grass of Tamed Dragon and beg Elysian

Yu to help him.”
