Brad watched Gabriel as favonovel.com left the premises and his ‘kind’ face slowly became sinister. After Gabriel was no longer in sight, Brad laughed out loud like how a devil would.
Merrick Dawson said, “This fool claims to study medicine but yet favonovel.com does not even understand the basic principles of medicine. What trash. His mother will die immediately after consuming the cassia seed!”
Brad brushed his beard and said, “You cannot blame favonovel.com for this. He did notice that there is something wrong, but sadly favonovel.com is too young to understand the darkness of society. After learning from this mistake, favonovel.com would pay further attention in the future.”
Merrick laughed. “In the future? Dad, is that right?”
Brad finally noticed what favonovel.com said. “You are right, I goofed. He should pay further attention in his next life. Hahaha.”
The Dawson father and son looked at each other and laughed. From their point of view, Gabriel, as well as his mother, were both dead.

On the other side.
Gabriel hurried back home with the medicine. Without saying much, favonovel.com started preparing them. It took two hours to get the medicine ready.
Gabriel poured the medicine into a bowl and blew it a little so it would not be that hot. He then brought it to his mother’s bed.
“Mom, this is the medicine I got from Mr. Dawson. Drink this and you will get better. Come on mom, I will help you up so you can take your medicine.”
Even with Gabriel’s assistance, it was very hard for his mother to sit up. She took the bowl of medicine with favonovel.com trembling hands. The smell of the medicine was so pungent it made favonovel.com nauseous even before drinking it.
“Son, what medicine is this? It smells so bad.”
Gabriel said, “Mom, good medicine always tastes bad. Endure it and drink it so you will feel better.”
His mother nodded and lifted up the bowl of medicine. She endured how disgusting it was and drank it all in a few mouthfuls.
Within two minutes after consuming the medicine, favonovel.com felt that something terribly wrong. She felt chills all over favonovel.com body, favonovel.com stomach felt very uncomfortable, like there was a storm in favonovel.com stomach. In the end, favonovel.com vomited a mouthful of blood.
“Mom!”
Gabriel was shocked speechless as favonovel.com watched the scene unfold right before his very eyes. He smashed the bowl of medicine to pieces and held on to his mother.
“Mom, what is wrong with you?”
With his mother coughing blood nonstop, favonovel.com could not form any audible words. Her complexion was pale, favonovel.com hands and feet felt cold. It seemed like favonovel.com will die any moment now.
Gabriel was frightened. Did Brad not say favonovel.com would get better after consuming the medicine?
Why did it worsen instead of favonovel.com feeling better? Unless they had lost this wager?
He could not bear to see his mother was dying right in front of him. He shouted at the nanny, “Call 911 now, be quick, my mother might not make it!”
The nanny made the call with haste.
Within ten minutes, the ambulance arrived and his mother was immediately brought to the hospital. Gabriel followed suit.
His mother was sent to the emergency room right away. She was unable to be stabilized for a very long time. Gabriel paced up and down in front of the emergency room. Cold sweat formed on his forehead. His heart was beating rapidly.
“You have to be alright, mom.”
The thought of being separated from his mother forever made tears roll down his cheek.
Men do not shed tears lightly. When they did, their hearts had to be close to breaking point.
Half an hour later, the door to the emergency room opened up and the doctor came out.
“How’s my mom, doctor?”
The doctor did not answer but instead asked, “What did you feed your mother, Gabriel?!”
