Chapter 239 The men who had previously doubted Andrew and feared he would not be able to handle Griffin now looked at him with admiration .
One of them said , As expected of Mr.
Lloyd hes truly incredible .
Dylan , feeling energized , gave orders , Our chance has come .
Mr.
Lloyd has removed Griffin , the thorn in our side .
Pass the word : while East City is in chaos , have all our men move out immediately .
Well take over the East City turf and not give Northern District any chance ! Yes , Mr.
Garner ! A chorus of approval rang out , their spirits soaring .
That night , the underground forces of North and South City clashed in fierce combat .
South City launched a major counterattack , and the Northern District was caught off guard , suffering a terrible defeat .
Many people were losing sleep , and the night was full of unrest .
Among those unable to sleep was Kane , the head of the Weller family .
Dr.
Aicker , how is my condition ? Kane asked carefully in his private study .
Kane had urgently summoned Cedric , who was checking his pulse .
Earlier that day , Andrew had told Kane that he only had three days left to live .
At first , Kane had dismissed it , but something in his chest had been pounding relentlessly , making him uneasy .
Recently , his health had been deteriorating quickly , and he could not longer ignore the signs .
Cedric paused and stated slowly , Mr.
Weller Senior , your condition is severe .
Kanes eyelids twitched .
He forced himself to stay calm and urged , Please , speak plainly .
Ive weathered many storms in my life .
Im not easily scared .
Cedric sighed .
Since you insist on the truth , sure .
You probably only have three days left to live .
Kane felt as though he had been struck by lightning .
He stammered in disbelief , W What did you say ? Three days ? This was exactly what Andrew had predicted earlier .
Kanes body went cold with fear .
Cedric continued , With your martial arts foundation , even if your body had an incurable disease , you should have lived a few more years .
But unfortunately , youve recently been poisoned with a large amount of deadly toxin .
This has worsened things , like adding fuel to the fire .
Ive been … poisoned ? Kane felt his head spin .
Ive had people managing my meals and daily needs .
How could I have been poisoned ? He asked , Also , if I were poisoned , why havent felt anything besides growing weaker ? Cedric explained , The poison in your body has been accumulating slowly over time , so you didnt notice it right away .
But once it reaches a certain level , it erupts like a volcano , and youll die within moments .
Kanes face drained of color .
He quickly asked , Dr.
Aicker , if this poison is so dangerous , why havent you done anything to save me ? Cedric shook his head , his face filled with regret .
I wish I could help you , but the poison has already spread throughout your organs .
Its too late to reverse it .
He added , I can only try to extend your life a little longer .
However , theres no saying how much longer you can live .
Cedric left behind a vial of life saving pills , shaking his head as he went .
Kane sat alone in the quiet room , his face ashen .noveldrama
After a long pause , a dark , twisted expression took over his features .
Harvey , you bastard ! And you , Serena , you bitch ! Get in here , both of you ! Kanes anguished roar echoed through the entire Weller residence in the dead of night .
