Jade bellowed, "Your daughter has poor kidneys! The same goes for your whole family too!"
Speechless and livid, the black-clad man started to storm off.
Even if Chaz had asked him to come from distant Seaham, he would suffer a stroke soon if he had to suffer a boor like Jade for another second.
"Please calm down." Gina quickly stopped him, smiling apologetically when she saw that things were going awry. "My relative is just a little too worried about her daughter. Please try to save Luna for Mr.
Graves' sake—we will reward you handsomely once she's cured."
The mention of Chaz and a reward calmed the black-clad man a little, and he nodded. "Then go and procure a drakeroot. You just need to bring it, and I'll be able to cure her."

"What a mess." He sighed—the man would not even compare to Dan Zimmer, as those acupoints only
stimulated the body and invigorated them.
In other words, the black-clad man was just trying to help Luna regain her strength, burning her vigor
just so that she lived another few weeks.
When her vigor was burnt up in weeks, she would run her course and die.
Treating the symptom and not the issue was basically deceit. Still, the black-clad man must have had
enough of Jade's antics, or he would not go this far.
"Hmph. If you have a heart, you should be thanking Gramps," Frank growled as he stuffed a Vigor Pill
into her mouth.

out the needles of the black-clad man and placed them in the right acupoints.
As he did, Luna's breathing turned steady and she slowly opened her eyes.
"You!" she snapped since Frank could not get away in time.
Then, she touched herself to find herself covered in nothing but her white blanket.
Her eyes widened and she screamed deafeningly.
"Urgh."
Frank cupped his ears as he leapt out the windo
