The Billionaire's Last Obsession series 53 Summary Lilian calmly prepares to treat Gordon, who is unconscious and in critical condition. She uses slender silver needles emitting a cold blue light, carefully inserting them into his heart and lungs to initiate a transformation. Landon anxiously watches over Gordon and follows Lilian's instructions to fetch a basin and towels. As the treatment progresses, Gordon's condition worsens temporarily, vomiting black blood before it gradually turns red and his breathing steadies. He finally regains consciousness, weak but grateful to Lilian.
Gordon acknowledges the seriousness of the situation and promises Lilian a full explanation, acknowledging that the Goodman family needs a thorough cleansing. He instructs Landon to bring Sean to him. Gordon then pays Lilian her consultation fee, expressing his trust in her medical skills, which were recommended by Mr. Arron and his last hope for survival. He reveals the betrayal by his sons who tried to keep him in a coma until he died naturally, but Lilian's unexpected intervention has ruined their plans.
Lilian shows a mix of sympathy and determination as she urges Gordon to recover quickly, warning that he will need to face his enemies head-on since they won't give him another chance. Gordon acknowledges the gravity of the betrayal and the urgency of his situation. Just then, Landon returns with Sean, who respectfully approaches Gordon to discuss any changes to the current arrangements. Before any discussion can proceed, the door violently bursts open, and Killian along with several others storm into the room, their hostile energy filling the space.
Lilian watches the unfolding confrontation with a sly smirk, finding the real-life palace drama unfolding before her utterly entertaining. Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Lilian's voice carried a casual, almost languid tone as she spoke. "What do you think? Since I've already waded into this mess, of course I'm going to wait for Mr. Gordon to wake up and explain everything." As she said this, her hand slipped inside her bracelet, retrieving a set of slender silver needles. A cold, sharp blue light flickered from their tips, casting an eerie glow.
With practiced ease, she began inserting them carefully-each needle aimed precisely at Gordon's heart and lungs. Landon stood nearby, his eyes fixed anxiously on Gordon's face, watching for any sign of change. "Go get a basin and some clean towels," Lilian said calmly but firmly. "You'll need them to clean your master up in a moment." Landon didn't hesitate, quickly rushing off to fetch the items. By the time he returned, the transformation had already begun. Gordon's face flushed an alarming shade of red, his features contorted in pain.

Then, without warning, he lurched forward and vomited a thick stream of pitch-black blood. Landon hurried to wipe him down, but Gordon's retching continued relentlessly, again and again. Slowly, the color of the blood shifted from black to a bright, vivid red. Only then did his breathing begin to steady, and his eyelids fluttered open, revealing his weary gaze. Landon immediately leaned closer. "Sir, how are you feeling?" Gordon glanced briefly at Landon before turning his gaze to Lilian. His voice was weak, but he nodded slightly. "Thank you.
I owe you for this." Lilian's tone remained light and unbothered. "No need to thank me. This was a straightforward transaction. But as for the parts that aren't transactional... I expect a proper explanation. I don't forget when I'm slighted." Gordon didn't need to ask what she meant. His expression hardened, growing cold. "You have my word. I'll give you a satisfactory answer. Frankly, it's about time the Goodman family underwent a thorough cleansing." Then he shifted his attention to Landon. "Bring Sean to me." "Yes, sir," Landon replied without hesitation, hurrying out the door.
Gordon, moving slowly but deliberately, reached into the bedside drawer and pulled out a check. He handed it to Lilian. "This is your consultation fee, Ms. Lilian." Without any ceremony or even a glance, Lilian accepted the check and slipped it neatly into her small bag. Satisfied, Gordon continued, "Everything that's happened... it's disgraceful. But because of Mr. Arron, I knew your medical skills were exceptional. That's why I told Landon-if anything went wrong, he had to find you and bring you here. You were my last hope." He paused, bitterness creeping into his voice.
"I knew those two bastards wouldn't let me live. But they were too afraid to kill me outright, so they made sure Landon couldn't reach you. As long as you didn't show up, I'd stay in a coma-until I died naturally. They never expected you to be such a wild card. You ruined all their plans. I hate that you were dragged into this, but I promise you-I will make things right." Lilian looked at the frail man before her, a pang of sympathy mingling with her resolve. It was tragic to see that even someone as powerful as the Goodman family patriarch had been betrayed by his own sons.
"Then get better soon," she said softly. "You'll need to take matters into your own hands. I doubt they'll give you another chance next time." Gordon exhaled deeply, knowing she was right. The time for hesitation had passed. The betrayal had gone too far. At that moment, the door creaked open again. Landon returned, escorting a middle-aged man dressed in a sharp, tailored suit. "Sir, Sean is here." Sean approached the bedside and gave a slight bow. "Mr. Gordon, I understand you asked for me.
Are there any changes you want to make to the current arrangements?" Before Gordon could answer, the door suddenly burst open with force. Killian and several others stormed inside, their presence charged with hostile energy. Lilian's lips curled into a sly smirk as she regarded the intruders. Well, well. A real-life palace drama unfolding right before her eyes. How utterly entertaining. Conclusion The chapter closes on a tense yet pivotal moment, highlighting the fragile balance between power, loyalty, and survival.
