Chapter 387
On the Tonico news channel, a news story was being broadcast repeatedly.
Ava, in an interview, expressed her outrage, accusing Judith and Eason of controlling Alexander. She claimed they not only prevented Alexander from receiving proper medical treatment but also placed an inexperienced young doctor by his side.
Ava further stated that she had painstakingly brought the Medical Mystic to treat Alexander, but Judith and Eason deliberately drove him away. The Medical Mystic couldn’t even see Alexander, according to her.
Ava even directly alleged that Judith and Eason had no intention of curing Alexander, suggesting they were plotting against the king to hasten Eason’s ascension to power!
Ava’s public statements were a clear breach of relations with Judith and Eason.
Judith, watching Ava speak so boldly on TV, trembled with rage and disbelief. “How can she say such things!”
Eason held Judith’s hands with a calm expression.
He narrowed his eyes and continued to watch.
In addition to Ava, who claimed to be the Medical Mystic, Edel also participated in the interview.
The journalists primarily wanted Edel to verify his identity.
Thomas, watching the television, smirked at the mention of the Medical Mystic.
He was curious about how Edel would prove his claim.
Faced with the journalists‘ pressing inquiries, Edel wasn’t in a hurry.
He leisurely produced a medical record book, which documented the various complex cases he had treated. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
The record detailed each patient’s initial condition, his treatment approach, and the outcomes after the
treatment.
The meticulous records in the book could only belong to the Medical Mystic.
Edel then presented some of his recent writings.
Upon handwriting analysis, it was confirmed that the medical records and the recent writings were authored by the same person.
This indirectly confirmed that Edel was indeed the Medical Mystic.
His reappearance after years of seclusion was big news in itself.
Combined with Ava’s tearful accusations and the royal family’s internal disputes, the story was explosive.

Edel, facing the camera, looked distressed. “I had retired and just wanted to live a peaceful life. But when Princess Ava begged me to save the king, I was moved by her sincerity and agreed to come. However, I didn’t expect that both the queen and the prince would refuse to let me examine the king. Since that’s the case, I can’t force it. It’s just a pity for Princess Ava.”
Edel’s words aligned perfectly with Ava’s story, prompting reporters to ask questions one more conspiratorial than the next.
By the end, they were almost certain that Judith and Eason were plotting something sinister.
This news was being broadcast on a loop.
Eason frowned.
He was deeply troubled, not so much by the content of the news itself, but how many high–level officials of the Tonico had on their side?
This news had been released without his knowledge and was being continuously broadcast.
What did this mean?
It meant that those behind the scenes almost entirely controlled Tonico’s media landscape.
Eason regretted deeply in his heart.
Perhaps Eason shouldn’t have been so headstrong in pursuing a business career.
Now, with his father incapacitated, he found himself completely out of his depth in Tonico’s political arena. Previously, when his father was in charge, everyone behaved with respect. But now, as his father lay. vulnerable, those lurking in the shadows began to emerge, one after another.
It just so happened that he didn’t understand the situation at all and completely unaware of how to navigate the current situation.
Eason clenched his fists. He was really a useless person.
He allowed himself three minutes of weakness.
During these minutes, he stood silently, enduring the jarring voices from the news broadcast.
After three minutes, Eason closed his eyes, reopening them with a newfound, chilling calmness.
He addressed Thomas first. “Dr. Thomas, I’m sorry to have dragged you into this mess. Rest assured, I’ll handle this. We still need your expertise for my father’s condition!”
Regardless of whether Edel was the Medical Mystic, Eason knew Ava had shown her true colors, and Edel was her pawTL.
Even if Edel were genuinely the Medical Mystic, Eason resolved never to let him near his father.
And as for Thomas, the only one who could temporarily suppress his father’s poisoning, Eason chose to trust him completely!

Thomas looked intently at Eason. “I’m not well–known. Aren’t you afraid I’m really incompetent?”
Eason replied calmly. “If I don’t trust the doctor, I should at least trust Ben and Susan. Dr. Thomas, you needn’t worry. I’ll take care of everything outside. You just focus on treating my father.”
Thomas studied Eason, whose eyes reflected unwavering determination.
Just then, a commotion arose outside.
Eason, hearing snippets of the noise, looked concerned.
Peering out the window, he saw a large crowd carrying banners and chanting slogans, marching towards them.
“Reveal the King’s condition!”
“Thoroughly investigate the Queen and the Prince!”
“Conspiring against the King is unforgivable!”
“Let the Medical Mystic treat the King!”
The crowd outside the hospital was chanting loudly, their faces filled with anger.
The police had set up a barricade at the hospital entrance, trying to calm the crowd, but the people were overwhelmed by their rage.
Suddenly, someone shouted. “Occupy the hospital, save the King!”
This incited the crowd to surge forward in a frenzy..
The police struggled to restrain them, careful not to harm these ordinary citizens, yet finding it increasingly difficult to maintain order.
Eason, watching this unfold, took a deep breath and said calmly, “I’ll go down and handle this. Dr. Thomas, please take care of my father in the meantime/
As Eason turned to leave, Thomas chuckled and said, “The King’s condition is stable and not urgent. Prince Eason, let me accompany you.”
“Thomas.” Ben glanced at Thomas.
Thomas spoke calmly, “The title of the Medical Mystic is not something to be tarnished by just anyone.”
Even though he no longer used the title, he couldn’t tolerate others exploiting it for deceit.
Ben looked at Thomas intently. “Have you
decided?”
He knew what Thomas stepping forward would mean.
It would expose his identity, which he had managed to keep hidden.

It meant re–entering the very limelight he detested, leading to the end of his carefree life.
Eason looked at Ben and then at Thomas.
His eyes flickered slightly.
Both Ben and Susan, as well as Thomas, seemed convinced that this Edel was an imposter, despite his diary proof.
Why was that?
Did they know the Medical Mystic?
on Thomas grew more intense.
