“What? He’s okay and awake?” exclaimed Miranda Lowe’s driver in disbelief at the downtown hospital.

“The patient is fine. It looks like just a minor injury,” nodded the doctor in his white coat.

“How is that possible? After he was hit, it looked really serious and there was so much blood,” said the driver with a shocked expression.

“As you said, it only looked that way,” replied the doctor calmly.

Miranda raised an eyebrow skeptically but after confirming that the doctor wasn’t joking, she said nonchalantly, “Then I’ll go see him.”

Pushing open the door to his room, Miranda saw a bewildered man sitting on the bed. Lachlan couldn’t believe he wasn’t dead and something felt off about his b*dy. His mind was also filled with all sorts of random information – Dragon Soul Immortal Technique? Dragon Emperor’s Canon? Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique?

What were these things?

And now there was a warm sensation spreading from his left kidney to every part of his b*dy which felt oddly pleasant.

As Lachlan was studying intently, Miranda walked in. He looked up and was struck by her beauty. She outshone Claudia, who had once captivated him.

“Who are you?” Lachlan asked uncertainly, his mouth agape.

Miranda didn’t answer but instead stared at him and asked, “Are you trying to pull a scam?”

Lachlan was momentarily stunned before realizing what she meant. He had crashed into her car head-on like a scammer would do.

“No,” he said with a wry smile and shook his head.

“Oh, so you just don’t want to live anymore?” Miranda asked casually.

“Yeah,” Lachlan nodded in agreement.

“But what if you didn’t die? What’s your plan, to keep seeking death?” Miranda asked, her eyes flashing with an unknown purpose.

At this question, Lachlan sat in silence for a moment.
