The Almighty Son-In-Law ( Cyrus Johnson )
Chapter 25

Chapter 25 

Cyrus looked at Wallace and said loudly, “Dad, thank you for marrying Zoey to me against all objections and for supporting us financially over the past three years. Take this gift as my repayment for your kindness. 

“Hmph! I’m not your lab rat,” Wallace said. 

There’s no way that this brat could heal him! 

“If you can’t stand up by tonight, I’ll divorce Zoey tomorrow,” Cyrus said. 

Wallace was immediately tempted. He asked, “Seriously?” 

“Yes, all the guests can testify,” Cyrus replied. 

This was the first time Cyrus had promised to divorce her. Zoey was also surprised. 

For the sake of his daughter’s happiness, Wallace agreed. 

“My legs are already paralyzed. He can try whatever he wants. Move aside, you two.” 

Glancing at her pitiful daughter in the audience, Zoey didn’t know what to do. 

The divorce seemed to be a done deal, but she couldn’t bear to part with her seriously ill daughter. 

Mira had also heard Cyrus‘ words. She said with tears in her eyes, “Aunt Ceci, I don’t want to leave 

Mommy.” 

Looking at the poor child, Cecilia let out a quiet sigh. 

She hoped that Zoey would be able to get out of her miserable situation soon, but now she simply couldn’t be happy for her. 

Oh, Cyrus! Why would he brag so much? 

Taking out the Imperial Nine Needles, Cyrus instructed, “Zoey, take out the 20–year–old fresh Dragon White Herb from the incubator. Dad needs to chew it and swallow the juice. Combined with my acupuncture, this should only take about half an hour.” 

Wallace thought that he had heard wrongly. A 20–year–old fresh Dragon White Herb? 

Zoey was even more surprised. She thought Cyrus had just been bragging. Could he really have gotten a Dragon White Herb? 

Frederick, who was sitting in the front row, sat up excitedly. The moment Zoey opened the incubator, he rushed onto the stage. 

The cold fog in the incubator/dissipated, revealing a small piece of white herb. It was as white as snow and emitted a cold fragrance. 

Frederick gulped in excitement. 

“Fred, is this genuine? Wallace asked. 

“Yes, this is the real thing!” Frederick said, nodding vigorously. His confirmation caused the guests to 

flock to the stage.. 

Comparing the two herbs, Felix found the thing in his box to be simply garbage. 

This was impossible! Cyrus was a poor wretch. Where did he get so much money? 

Besides that, he had even gotten it specially delivered by helicopter! 

“Holy crap! If this thing is real, wouldn’t it cost more than a few million dollars?” 

“It’s extremely rare to find one that’s 20 years old. This is a real treasure!! 

This must be a real slap in the face for his brother–in–law!” 

Zoey watched as Cyrus attentively inserted needles into Wallace’s skin. She was amazed. 

Frederick had confirmed that the white herb was genuine, so it definitely couldn’t be fake. 

“Zoey, hurry and give him the medicine,” Cyrus reminded. 

“Uh, okay.” 

Zoey quickly picked up the herb and fed it to her father. 

Wallace chewed the white herb cooperatively. Although it was slightly bitter, he didn’t spit it out. 

“Dad, slow down. Just swallow the juice,” Cyrus said. 

Looking at Cyrus being so focused on the treatment, Zoey felt inexplicably at ease. 

Everyone held their breath as they waited for the results of Cyrus‘ treatment. 

But even with the Dragon White Herb, it was impossible to achieve immediate results. 

In fact, the Dragon White Herb only served as an induction. The real secret weapon was the Imperial Nine Needles, which no one knew about. 

Mabel, Felix, and Phoebe waited with pounding hearts. 

If Wallace could really stand up, the matter of the successor would be ruined. 

In just 15 minutes, Cyrus began to withdraw the needles. 

Wallace was sweating profusely, and he had already fallen asleep. 

As she was wiping off his sweat,/Zoey asked nervously. “Cyrus, is my dad okay?” 

“Your needles are rusty and black. Are you trying to kill my dad?” Felix yelled. 

Cyrus calmly lifted Wallace’s left foot and pricked the first metatarsal acupoint. 

“Argh!” With a shriek, Wallace jumped up from the wheelchair.

The horrified onlookers dispersed at once. 

Seeming as if he had just seen a ghost, Frederick blurted out, “Fuck!” 

Wallace had actually felt the pain? 

Zoey was also frightened. 

She covered her mouth and stared at Cyrus, her beautiful big eyes filled with fear.
