Chapter 270 Try His Best
"When it comes to treating illnesses, I'll do my best. But whether I succeed or not, that’s up to God. If God doesn't want your father to live, even if I manage to bring him back, a thunderbolt might just strike him down," Daniel explained.
"You'll be the one struck by lightning! If you keep talking nonsense instead of treating my dad properly, I'll pray for a thunderbolt to turn you into ash!" Abigail threatened, exasperated by Daniel's attitude.
Without another word, Daniel inserted the second needle, and Liam's eyes fluttered open.
Gabriel was dumbfounded. "He... he became a zombie?" he asked fearfully.
"Zombie? You're the zombie!" Daniel retorted, then turned to Liam. "Do you feel better?" Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
"How could a dead man speak?" Gabriel still refused to believe that someone who'd been pronounced dead could be revived, so even with Liam's eyes open, Gabriel remained convinced Liam was still dead.
"Thank you! Doctor, thank you for saving my life!" Liam spoke, shocking Gabriel into silence.
Abigail rushed over and embraced Liam happily, "Dad, you're alive? You're really alive?"
"It's all thanks to this doctor; he brought me back." Liam's words were a testament to Daniel's successful treatment, and Gabriel, unable to accept this, quickly tried to claim credit for himself.
"Liam, it wasn't this charlatan who saved you, it was me. I used adrenaline to pull you back from the brink of death. This charlatan... he did nothing to save you; he was just defiling your body with those weird needles."
Abigail furrowed her brows at Gabriel's words. "What did you say? A body? Are you saying my dad was dead?"
"No, no! I meant the body, not the corpse!" Gabriel backpedaled, but then shamelessly continued, "You saw the situation yourself, Abigail. You should know the person who saved Liam wasn't this fraud, but me."
"You? I recall you just said my dad was dead. How can you now claim you revived him? Gabriel, for the top doctor of the county hospital, isn't this a bit too shameless?" Abigail challenged Gabriel, clearly not supporting his narrative.
Seeing Abigail wasn't siding with him, Gabriel turned his plea to Liam. "Liam, you must believe me. It was truly me who saved you. If I hadn't arrived in time with that adrenaline shot, by now you'd probably be checking in with the Grim Reaper. I’m not saying this to claim credit, but to restore the truth. Most importantly, I want you to understand." Gabriel's desperation was clear as he tried to maintain his integrity and authority in the eyes of both Liam and Abigail.
