All Chapters of Master of Life and Death: Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

Lydia's face turned pale. Just a few minutes ago, she'd mocked Cassian for telling tall tales about himself. She didn't expect her words to come back and bite her in the ass so soon.It was clear that Cassian was not only acquainted with Simon but even knew him fairly well!Once again, Lydia was forced to take stock of everything that had happened since she broke up with Cassian. He got a promotion, became a hero, received the Outstanding Doctor award, and even got to know Simon, the head of the Public Health Department.What on earth happened to him? Why was it that he'd become so lucky once she left him? Was she some kind of jinx?Lydia felt incredibly bitter about this."You're both my superior and a veteran in the industry, Mr. Lane. How could I possibly let you offer a toast to me? I should be the one toasting you," Cassian said courteously."No, I must offer a toast in your honor, Cassian. You mustn't stand on ceremony with me," Simon insisted before tapping his glass again

Andrew suddenly toppled headfirst to the floor with a loud thud. He was completely drunk.Cassian didn't spare him a glance. After giving a heads-up to Chester, he left the room to have a drink with Simon as promised.Once he got to the private room, he knocked on the door before opening it, only to find that it was packed. Mitch was seated at the head of the table. His ruddy cheeks made it clear he'd had quite a few drinks."You're finally here, Cassian," Simon called out. He quickly got up and pulled Cassian over to the table before addressing the others. "This is Cassian York, the genius doctor I was telling you guys about. If it hadn't been for him, my father would've died.""Simon, this genius doctor of yours looks far too young. Are you sure he's as incredible as you say he is?" Zebb Houston, a middle-aged man in a suit, was scrutinizing Cassian as he voiced his doubt."You can choose not to believe me, Zebb, but even Mr. Hurley is aware of Cassian's abilities. Isn't that ri

"If you manage to treat me, you can name your price. I'll give you any amount of money you ask for," Zebb declared."Alright."Smiling faintly, Cassian addressed the others in the room. "Pardon me, but I'll need to take up three minutes of your time."With that, he rose to his feet and stepped behind Zebb."It's going to hurt a little, but for the sake of not living with this condition for the rest of your life, I'll need you to endure it. It'll be over quickly," Cassian said.Zebb grunted in acknowledgment.Everyone else set down their cutlery and looked up curiously. They wanted to see how Cassian intended to treat Zebb.Cassian gathered his inner energy in his palm before abruptly jabbing a finger sharply into Zebb's lower back."Ouch!" Zebb howled in pain so loudly that everyone else's hair stood on end."Go easy on him, Cassian," Mitch reminded, worried that Cassian would end up injuring Zebb instead."Don't worry. It'll be fine," Cassian said.He poured some alcohol in

"It's not too late to ask for something else," Zebb said with a chuckle."It's fine. The others will just laugh at me again. Let's drink," Cassian said before taking the initiative to clink glasses with him.Thanks to this incident, everyone was able to witness what Cassian was capable of, and they became even friendlier with him. The atmosphere livened up tremendously.As the conversations flowed, Cassian gradually got a sense of the identities of the men present. Aside from Mitch and Simon, the others were all prominent businessmen from Rivershire.After a few rounds of drinks, Zebb piped up meaningfully, "I heard that Mr. Prewett Senior is on his deathbed. Have you guys heard about it yet?""Which Prewett are you talking about?" someone asked."Who else, if not Ezekiel Prewett? There's only one prominent family with the last name Prewett in Rivershire.""I thought Mr. Prewett Senior had always been in good health. What happened?"Zebb replied, "This morning, he suddenly coll

"Who's your boss?" Chester asked the bodyguards."I am."A cocky voice rang out from the doorway, and a blond young man in a white T-shirt came in. There was a faint handprint on his left cheek.As soon as Gemma saw him, her expression stiffened. She swiftly hid behind Chester."Why are you hiding the moment you see me, babe? Am I that scary? I was keen to get to know you a little better, you know, back at the restroom earlier. Who knew you'd run off so quickly?" the man said.With a sleazy grin on his face, he continued, "I came looking for you just so we could continue getting to know each other—""That's enough!" Chester shouted at him. "I'm warning you. If you don't stop harassing my classmate, I won't go easy on you!""You won't go easy on me? The likes of you?"The blond man abruptly slapped Chester, knocking him to the floor. Everyone was outraged."How can you hit him!""Do you think we live in a lawless society?""Quick! Call the cops!"Roaring with laughter, the m
