Brian and Jacob didn’t expect to see Alex standing in front of them. It didn’t take a genius to know that Alex was there to ask Dr. Skyworth to help cure Lucas as well, but they couldn’t let Alex do so successfully.

Alex was equally surprised to see Jacob there. The first thought that came to his mind was that Brian and Jacob must’ve gone to Tyrael because Demi was sick. Did they come to ask Tyrael to treat Demi?

“That has nothing to do with you,” replied Alex.

“I know why you’re here, anyway. You’re here to ask the divine physician to help Lucas, aren’t you?” scoffed Jacob.
