The Billionaire's Last Obsession series 84 Summary Lilian follows Mr. Quinton to a secluded villa where a group, including Lily and Hugh, is gathered. Before arriving, Lilian reviewed the Lincoln family history: Mr. Quinton has four children-Barry, Chandler, Jordan Hugh, and daughter Lily. Barry has two children, Justin and Misty; Chandler and his wife died in a car accident, leaving their son Jimmy; Jordan Hugh is unmarried. Mr. Quinton announces that Lilian will now be responsible for treating both Jimmy and Barry, ordering all other therapies to stop immediately.
Rona, Barry's wife, and Misty express strong doubts about Lilian's youth and inexperience, especially regarding Barry's care. Despite their protests, Mr. Quinton trusts Lilian with the responsibility. Misty even blocks Lilian and Mr. Quinton's path, refusing to let Lilian treat her father, but Rona calms the tension, explaining their fears. Lilian suggests that if they are so opposed, they can find someone else for Barry, and she will focus on Jimmy. In Jimmy's room, doctors prepare to draw blood but step aside for Mr. Quinton.
Lilian finds Jimmy unconscious and notices his brain is sealed by a potent drug, rendering machines ineffective. She instructs Mr. Quinton to remain silent and uses a glowing blue acupuncture needle to purge the toxin. Dark blood flows from Jimmy's ears and pores, alarming Mr. Quinton, but Lilian remains focused. After a tense wait, the black blood turns red, signaling the poison's removal. Lilian reveals that Jimmy was poisoned with a toxin from Xanderport and expects him to regain consciousness by night. She urges rest, visibly exhausted from the treatment. Mr.
Quinton, disturbed by the mention of Xanderport, orders a servant to escort Lilian to rest, his demeanor growing colder and more intense. Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Lilian trailed behind Mr. Quinton as he led her to a secluded villa situated just beyond the main estate. The living room was already bustling with people-among them were Lily and Hugh, both seated quietly amidst the crowd. Earlier, Lilian had taken the time to review the Lincoln family's history with her mentor. She knew that Mr. Quinton had four children: three sons and a daughter.
Barry, the eldest, and Chandler, the middle son, were from his first marriage. Jordan Hugh, the youngest son, was the child of his second wife, Lily. Barry had two children of his own-a son named Justin and a daughter called Misty. Tragically, Chandler and his wife had perished in a car accident, leaving behind their only son, Jimmy. Jordan Hugh, the youngest sibling, remained unmarried. Mr. Quinton's gaze swept across the room with a commanding presence before he spoke with unwavering authority. "From this moment forward, Lilian will be responsible for the treatment of both Jimmy and Barry.
All other therapies must cease immediately." A weary woman stepped forward, her face marked by the fatigue of many sleepless nights, yet her striking features remained undeniable. It was Rona, Barry's wife. "Dad, she looks so young. Can we really entrust the lives of Jimmy and Barry to someone so inexperienced?" she questioned, her voice laced with concern. Misty, standing firmly beside her mother, shot a sharp retort. "She's even younger than me. How could we possibly leave Dad's care to a stranger?" Mr. Quinton remained silent, refusing to engage with their doubts.

Instead, he turned to Lilian and said simply, "Lilian, I trust you with this responsibility." Lilian met his gaze and nodded respectfully. "Understood. May I see the patients now?" The room fell into a stunned hush, the weight of Mr. Quinton's decision settling heavily on everyone present. Lily's tightly clenched fists loosened ever so slightly, revealing a flicker of relief. As Lilian and Mr. Quinton moved toward the bedrooms, Misty suddenly stepped forward, blocking their path. "Grandpa, I won't let her touch my father.
You can try whatever you want on Jimmy, but leave my dad alone." Rona quickly pulled Misty back, attempting to calm the rising tension. "Dad, please don't be upset. Misty didn't mean to cause trouble-she's just worried about her father. And... it's natural to have doubts when someone so young is involved." Lilian glanced at both mother and daughter, then turned back to Mr. Quinton with quiet resolve. "If they feel this strongly, I'm sure they can find someone more qualified to treat Barry. Let's focus on your grandson." With a heavy sigh, Mr. Quinton led Lilian down the hall to Jimmy's room.
Inside, several doctors were preparing to draw blood from the unconscious boy. When they noticed Mr. Quinton enter, they immediately stepped aside, deferring to his authority. With a dismissive wave, Mr. Quinton sent them away. Lilian stepped inside and found Jimmy lying peacefully in bed, appearing as if he were merely asleep. His features were sharp and refined, reminiscent of a prince from a fairy tale.
The thought crossed her mind: "Like a precious jade among ordinary stones, unmatched in the world." Even with his eyes closed, she could imagine the brilliance they would hold when he awoke. She settled beside the bed and began carefully removing the monitoring devices attached to him. She had already identified the problem upon entering-Jimmy's brain was sealed off by a potent drug. Without the proper antidote, the machines were useless. Turning to Mr.
Quinton, she said softly, "Whatever happens next, please remain silent." From her bag, Lilian produced a cold-water needle, its tip shimmering with an eerie blue glow. Mr. Quinton's eyes widened in disbelief. Despite his vast knowledge and experience, he had never encountered anything like this before. Without hesitation, Lilian inserted the glowing silver needle swiftly into key acupuncture points on Jimmy's body. The blue light pulsed rhythmically, flowing from the needle deep into his system. Time seemed to stretch as they waited.
Then, slowly, dark blood began to seep from Jimmy's ears and pores, staining the white bedsheets beneath him. Alarmed, Mr. Quinton opened his mouth to speak, but recalling Lilian's warning, he bit back his words and watched anxiously. The black blood continued to flow, soaking the sheets with no sign of stopping. Lilian's face grew pale, her energy nearly spent. Just as she reached the brink of exhaustion, the black blood gradually shifted back to a healthy red. She exhaled a faint breath of relief and withdrew her energy carefully.
With a swift flick of her hand, all the needles flew back into her sleeve. Mr. Quinton immediately asked, "How is he?" Lilian stood upright, her voice steady but calm. "Jimmy was poisoned with a toxin originating from Xanderport. I've purged the poison from his system. If all goes well, he should regain consciousness by tonight. Hopefully, this will help you identify who is responsible." Noticing how drained and pale Lilian appeared, Mr. Quinton quickly summoned a servant.
"Please escort Miss Lilian to rest immediately." The mention of Xanderport caused his eyes to harden, turning as cold and sharp as ice. Conclusion The chapter closes on a poignant note, highlighting the tension between trust and doubt that permeates the Lincoln family. Lilian's youth and inexperience are met with skepticism, yet her unwavering determination and unique abilities begin to carve a path toward hope.
The emotional weight of responsibility presses heavily on her, but her quiet strength and resolve shine through, offering a glimpse of healing not only for Jimmy but for the fractured family as well. At its core, this chapter explores themes of faith, resilience, and the courage to confront the unknown. Lilian's delicate balance between vulnerability and power embodies the fragile hope that change is possible, even in the face of deep-seated fears and entrenched family dynamics.
Quinton's trust settles heavily on her shoulders, Lilian must navigate not only the physical ailments but also the emotional turmoil that grips the family. The mysterious poisoning linked to Xanderport introduces a shadowy element that hints at deeper conspiracies and unseen enemies lurking just beyond the estate's walls. Lilian's breakthrough in purging the toxin is a pivotal moment, but it also raises urgent questions about who might benefit from the suffering inflicted on Jimmy and possibly Barry.
