Chapter 8 When Arthur arrived at the hospital, His mother had already been wheeled out of the emergency room. She had narrowly escaped death, but she was destined to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair Seeing her son appear, tears instantly streamed down her face. She choked back sobs, tugging at the hem of Arthur's shirt, yet didn't know what to say. The string of recent events had left her fraught with anxiety. She had originally planned to go shopping with her friends to clear her head, but halfway there, it was as if her mind was suddenly clouded.
In a moment of feverish confusion, she drove straight into the greenbelt. The strange thing was, despite the crash, everyone else emerged unscathed. Only she had her legs crushed, ending up with a double amputation. Arthur's mother didn't notice that the cursed ruby bracelet she had snatched and worn on her wrist was faintly glowing with a gloomy light, sharp and red as blood. Half a month after my death, Arthur heard a rumor from somewhere that immortals frequented Mount Zion in the neighboring city.
Believing it to be true, he kept watch there day and night, hoping that one day he might see me again. Coming up empty-handed once again, Arthur walked down the mountain path in a daze. Suddenly, a figure darted out from the bushes nearby, raising a sharp knife and charging straight at him. Arthur reacted instantly, kicking the attacker squarely in the chest. The person and the knife were sent flying twenty feet away. As a scream rang out, Arthur finally saw clearly that the assailant was none other than Emily. 'Arthur! I'm going to kill you!" Emily looked deranged.

She had always been someone who would stop at nothing to achieve her ends, consumed by a need for vengeance-then and now.
She hid Dave's body in the refrigerator, asked around for Arthur's whereabouts, and upon learning he frequently appeared on this mountain, she came with a knife. "You ruined me! Even if I die, I'm taking you with me!" She was still screaming at Arthur as the police dragged her away. He let out a scoff, unbothered. He was highly skilled in combat. Emily, a pampered heiress raised in luxury, was no match for him. She wanted him to die with her? She was dreaming! But soon, the smile was wiped from Arthur's face.
He collapsed to the ground uncontrollably, staring in horror at his legs, which had lost all sensation. "My legs..." His assistant hurriedly dialed emergency services, but after running every possible test at the hospital, the doctors all threw up their hands in helplessness. "The test results show absolutely nothing wrong. How can a perfectly healthy person suddenly lose the ability to walk?" Three days later at the Hudson manor, Arthur's mother pounded on the door, weeping. "Arthur! Arthur! Please come out! Don't do anything foolish!" 62.42% 12:39 admin
