Triumph Above All novel

Chapter 299

Delilah had consulted several doctors to treat her grandfather, but Veronica turned them all away.

Skylar was her last hope, and the one most likely to cure Blanc. This time, she refused to back down.

The room was awash with boiling anger as they berated Delilah.

“Where is your respect for your elders, Delilah Whitlock? Your parents apparently failed to teach you

proper etiquette.”

“Get out of here immediately! Stop disturbing Grandpa’s rest.”

“What rest?” Delilah scoffed, “Grandpa is in critical condition, and here you are talking about rest. I

know what evil intent each of you have. There’s no need to defend yourself; I’m not interested in

arguing about it. Grandpa’s health is of primary importance. I took great pains to invite Mr. Stone to

treat him. Get out of the way!”

“Get out of the way? Will you take responsibility if things go awry? How do you intend to redeem

yourself?” Veronica hissed.

Delilah stated resolutely, “I know you’re all eyeing my company’s shares. I’m willing to give it all up if

Grandpa’s condition worsens. I’ll also forfeit my rights to the Whitlock family’s assets.” She turned to

Harvey and asked, “Do we have a deal, Uncle Harvey?”

Since Blanc’s illness, Harvey has been functioning as the Whitlock family’s head. She knew Harvey

was the true decision-maker, while Veronica was all bark and no bite.

The man cleared his throat and nodded. “Since you’re so adamant, I have no choice but let you try.”

Delilah sneered inwardly, you’re such a hypocrite, Harvey. You may seem like you’re forced into this,

but deep down, you must be ecstatic with my choice.

She knew that there was no time to argue with her shameless relatives. Hence, she turned to Skylar

and apologized, “I’m sorry for causing you so much trouble, Mr. Stone.”

The man motioned with his hand that no explanation was required. Delilah then continued respectfully,

“Thank you for taking the time to treat my grandpa.”

Skylar nodded his head and made his way to Blanc’s bedside. The frail old man was drifting in and out

of consciousness and had to rely on basic life support.

Skylar abruptly pulled the drip-tube from Blanc’s arm. When he was ready to remove the elderly man’s

oxygen mask, the Whitlock family shrieked in fear. “What the hell are you doing?”

The man ignored their protest and threw the oxygen mask aside. Next, he swiftly inserted 24

acupuncture needles into Blanc’s vital organs. This was the legendary “Twenty-Four Holy Needles”

procedure, which, if used correctly, was claimed to be able to save someone on the brink of death.

Skylar released his grip and wiped the sweat off his forehead when he saw the 24 needles vibrating in

Blanc’s body. He was initially reluctant to perform the procedure as it was a technique that required one

to expend a great deal of energy.

After giving Skylar a towel to wipe away his perspiration, Delilah asked worriedly, “How’s my grandpa

doing, Mr. Stone?”

Just as he was about to elaborate on the old man’s condition, someone exclaimed, “Look! What’s

happening to Dad?”

Delilah turned around and found Blanc in great agony; his face and torso were also twisted up. Blood

began to ooze from the elderly man’s nose, ears, and acupuncture sites. It was a horrifying sight!
