Chapter 1421: Chapter 1393: The Aftereffects Are Quite Serious (Part 4) Chapter 1421: Chapter 1393: The Aftereffects Are Quite Serious (Part 4) “Being silly again, you’re my daughter, who dares to look down on you? Those brats are just that way, they don’t mean any harm, and aren’t you already winning them over with your actions?”

Yuzo Joel said this with satisfaction.

Kiara’s progress had been much faster than he’d anticipated. His apprentices had gone from initial rejection to now looking at her with new respect. He believed it wouldn’t be long before the farmstead shone even brighter under her and Yacob’s leadership–all within his expectations.

Still, seeing Kiara’s tearful, heartbroken face made Yuzo Joel let out a heavy sigh.

“I hadn’t intended for you to find out so soon.”

“You’re horrible! You’re still trying to deceive me! I’m warning you, if you dare to lie to me again, I will disown you. Go back to where you came from; I don’t want to see you!”

“Alright, alright, I won’t lie to you. In fact, don’t be so pessimistic. My illness isn’t incurable. I was hoping to tell you after I got better, but you somehow found out…”

“Still lying! I’ve checked, and it’s simply, simply…”

Mrs. Kiara was unable to go on.

‘Incurable’–those four words weighed much too heavily.

The parting of flesh and blood that had already endured for decades, the brief surge forward, was once again cruelly shredded by reality because of these four words.

“Others may not be able to cure it, but your Third Brother has been working hard, you know. After all these years, he’s still making medicine for me. Once the prescription is complete, it might not make me completely normal, but at least it’ll sustain my life. If we’re lucky, I might even get to see Wendy grow up into an adult.”

“Really?” Kiara halted her tears, looking at him suspiciously.

“You’re not lying to me? You always mix truth with lies, three parts true and seven parts false–who knows if you’re just trying to pamper me!”

“How could I dare to deceive you? I have to keep my promises. It’s just that the medicine is not easy to concoct, so I didn’t want to tell you.”

“So, there’s still hope for you?” Hope sprang unbidden in Kiara’s heart.

Yuzo Joel ran his fingers through his hair handsomely, “Of course! Your dad is still so young. It wasn’t easy to find my sweet Califa Arumi; how could I give up and kick the bucket just like that?”

The corners of Kiara’s mouth twitched, “I do not want to be called Charita Joel!”

It sounded so weak.

“Call it whatever you like, are you done crying now?”

She wiped her tears, “I wasn’t crying, I just got sand in my eyes. I don’t believe you. You have to call Third Brother right now–as if I’m not here.”

Being deceived too often, she’d built up her own defenses.

Yuzo Joel sighed, “You’re so big now, yet you’re still as mischievous as a child…”

“Are you going to call or not?” Kiara glared, her pride on full display.

Not far away, a little girl who was snacking with her father suddenly sat down on the ground, her wails rising in a loud cry.

“I just want to read comics; are you going to buy them or not, buy them or not, buy them or not~”

Yuzo Joel’s temples throbbed. The one before him, so competent outside, was now throwing a tantrum, hardly any more sophisticated than that few years old child.

“I’ll buy, I’ll buy, stop your crying, really, wait till we get home, and I’ll deal with you!” The father, worn down by the tears, picked up his daughter and carried her off to the supermarket. The little girl’s face was still wet with tears, hanging upside down, carried by her dad, yet she let out a sly and smug chuckle.

“Stop looking at others! Call him now, quickly, right away!” Kiara persisted.

“Calling, calling, as if I dared not, girls are so delicate…”

Pressured by Kiara, Yuzo Joel knew he couldn’t avoid it any longer and took out his phone to dial Spencer Tatum, his Third Senior Brother.

“Third Bro, it’s me, how’s the medicine coming along?”

“Master, we only have two more herbs to find; I’ve been looking for them.”

Spencer Tatum’s voice came through clearly.

Kiara urged Yuzo Joel with her mouth, asking for the specific names and effects of the medicines!

Yuzo Joel rolled his eyes internally, what a troublesome little girl!

“Can this medicine control my condition? What’s the effect like?”

“…Master, I know this medicine can control your condition, but I’m a bit worried now…” Spencer Tatum’s voice hesitated.

Kiara’s heart also hung in suspense.

Could it be that not even Third Senior Brother could cure Dad?

“What are you worried about?” Yuzo Joel asked.

“I’m worried you might be getting early onset dementia, haven’t you known about these things for a while now? Why are you still asking? It’s over… Master, if you really do get dementia, I can’t cure that.”

“Do you think I want to be an idiot? It’s only because I have a shameless little girl by my side. Forget it, I won’t talk to you anymore, go do your thing.”

Yuzo Joel hung up the phone and gestured towards Kiara with his cell phone.

“You believe that?”

“Hmm… half and half. You’ve had too many priors for me to trust you completely.”

After listening to this conversation, Kiara felt pretty happy. She was relieved that the situation might not be as hopeless as she’d imagined, and that the father she had acknowledged with great difficulty still had a chance.

“Ancestors, what do you really want? Even though I’m still young, I don’t have the brute strength of your Arua to carry you back like a child… I bet if I carried you back, I’d break my back, and your senior brothers would die laughing.”

“I’m not that heavy!” Kiara pushed him, “Stinky old man!”

“No respect, what did you call me?”

“Stinky old man! You’re just a stinky old man who talks nonsense!”

The wind carried the father-daughter dialogue far away.

“Let’s go, we should head back and see if Camden has drunk your Senior Brother under the table. Hopefully not, as I really don’t feel like dragging Yacob back. He’s as heavy as a pig.”

“Hey… old man…” Kiara called him hesitantly.

“Hmm?”

“You have to live longer, understand?”

“Hmm.” Yuzo Joel curled the corner of his mouth up. He now had an unprecedented fondness for this world, reluctant to let go.

“In the future, you can’t drink alcohol, you shouldn’t eat irregularly, you shouldn’t eat just anything, and you definitely shouldn’t stay up late. Also, don’t get involved in things that require you to overuse your brain–after all, you won’t be able to spend all your money anyway, so don’t take on those unnecessary cases, and don’t fly all over the world. Just stay and recover honestly in this place. I’ll check up on your routine periodically, and if I find out you’ve been messing up again, I won’t let you off–hey, old man, don’t run, come back!”

A little girl is nothing but trouble. She always felt very sentimental when they weren’t close, and now that they were too familiar, it was also a headache.

Yuzo Joel was a bit worried, look what kind of trouble he’d gotten himself into!

…

What qualitative change took place that night, only Yuzo Joel and Kiara knew.

But the aftermath was quite significant.

The one who was most directly affected was Edward Farmbright, who was drunk and not quite himself when he got home. He lay in bed in a daze until daybreak, and when he opened his eyes the following day, he felt like a ghost was oppressing him, and got up with a start.
