Lock You In My Heart

Everyone has different goals in life. Some pursue wealth and fame, aspiring to be the greatest. Some choose a quiet and simple life, living peacefully and having the freedom to do anything they want.

Doctor Maniac chose the latter.

After experiencing all sorts of things, he preferred living simply. He didn’t mind spending the rest of his life inside the village. Nothing else mattered as long as he could treat patients and had enough food to survive.

”It’s nothing. Did you know Bain had a problem with the Campbell Family in the past?” Lance asked, staring at the doctor.

He had met a lot of interesting folks in this place. When he first saw the easygoing Doctor Maniac, he didn’t think the doctor was an exception. There were only a handful of ordinary people here and he wasn’t really one of them.

He could have committed a crime or he possessed certain skills that were valuable to Bain.

Lance figured Doctor Maniac must be extremely talented. It was tempting to dig deep into his past, but that would be distasteful. He wouldn’t do that.

“Everybody in the village knew that if goons from the Campbell Family infiltrated the forest, they could never get out of here alive. Bain doesn’t just give empty threats.” Doctor Maniac sneered.

Because of the bad blood that broke out between Bain and the Campbell Family, people in the village became more cautious towards them. Their clan members wouldn’t dare to step in Bain’s turf without any reason.

If anyone dared to break the rules, they would suffer the consequences.

Lance felt cold inside the hospital. The air surrounding them was so grim that he couldn’t stay there any longer. He decided to look for Gabrielle.

“Anyway, Doctor Maniac, I’ll be going now. I have to see Gabrielle,” Lance said, then he headed to the door.
