Chapter 53 Just You Wait
“Radley!?”
The hooligans rushed towards Radley and helped him up.
What they found was that his crotch was soaked in blood profusely.
They pulled open his pants and looked inside, feeling a shiver down their spines at the horrifying scene, causing them to turn away.
“What the heck! Radley? How did you get hurt so badly down there?”
“Damn! Who did this to you!?”
“Radley, how do you feel?”
Radley was covered in cold sweat, nearly fainting from the pain.
He couldn’t feel anything below his waist. It was as if he had been castrated.
“You punk, was it you who did this?”
Seeing Leones approaching calmly, Radley and the others were both shocked and enraged.
They were a group, yet they had no idea when and how he managed to do this.
But there was no time to think. They needed to get Radley to the hospital as soon as possible.
If they delayed, Radley’s situation would worsen irreversibly.
“Kid, you wait! We have seen your face!”
“Dare to attack us! We won’t let you off the hook!”
Saying this, the group of hooligans lifted the heavily injured Radley and left as if fleeing.
Leones pushed a wheelchair to Ariella’s side.
Then he bent down to pick her
- up.
Ariella’s body was as light as a feather, exuding a faint floral scent.
Ariella exclaimed, experiencing such close contact with a stranger for the first time in her life.
Before she could struggle or think too much, Ariella found herself back in the wheelchair.
Leones pushed her back to the flower shop.
Inside the shop was clean, neat, and fragrant, just like its owner.
“Thank you…”
Ariella regained her senses from her earlier distress and despair, glancing at Leones gratefully. The more she looked at Leones, the more she felt like she had seen him somewhere before. Before she could ask, Leones took a step forward and said, “What’s your name?” Ariella truthfully told him her name.
“How did you injure your leg?” Leones asked again.

“Five years ago, I was in a car accident…” Ariella lightly pursed her lips, not eager to recall.
“I see,” Leones confirmed her identity. He hadn’t mistaken her for someone else. Then, Leones bent down again, reaching for Ariella’s thigh.
Ariella exclaimed, not understanding Leones‘ intentions, “What… What are you doing?”
Leones didn’t reply. Instead, he began kneading and pressing from top to bottom, reshaping and

activating the leg’s bones.
However, in Ariella’s eyes, Leones‘ unusual actions seemed more like he was being a rogue molesting her, making her feel nauseated.
“What are you doing? Let go of me!” Ariella shouted, struggling. The gratitude she felt towards? Leones from earlier vanished.
In her heart, she felt miserable. “Why am I so unlucky? Just when I chased away a bunch of hoodlums, I encountered another freak.
He’s actually touching and pinching my injured leg?”
Ariella was about to shout for help….
Suddenly, her body jolted as if she had been shocked.
She could clearly feel the increasing pressure on her legs as they were massaged.
At first, Ariella felt embarrassed and
angry.
But soon, her embarrassment turned into surprise, followed by a trembling sensation like being struck by lightning.
“My legs… I can actually feel them…”
Could this be a hallucination?
Just as Ariella was perplexed, Leones finished his treatment.
Finally, he gently tapped her knees with a concentrated stream of vital energy at his fingertips. An incredible scene unfolded.
Ariella’s calf muscles actually displayed a knee–jerk reflex.
Her calves lifted, and she even felt a slight tingling pain.
“Try standing up.”
Leones handed her an umbrella.
“Alright!”
Using the umbrella for support, Ariella struggled to stand up.
Her legs were trembling intensely, but she was overjoyed.
She hadn’t experienced this feeling for five years.
With a mix of shock and delight, Ariella managed to take a few steps, albeit with difficulty.
Success!
Ariella couldn’t believe her eyes.
Not only did her legs have sensation, but she could also take steps.
Although she found it a bit challenging and unsteady, every small step she took was an unparalleled new experience for her.
Suddenly, Ariella stumbled, losing her balance.
Fortunately, Leones was right there in front of her, catching her steadily.
Lying against his firm chest, Ariella blushed.
Leones supported her again, helping her back into the wheelchair.
“You haven’t walked for a long time, so it’ll take some time to readjust.”
11:56
From observing her earlier walking, he noticed that her legs still lacked some strength and needed gradual rehabilitation.
After all, her legs had been disabled for five years. They wouldn’t recover immediately.
“I’ll prescribe another regimen for you. Both oral and topical treatments, and you need to follow them every day.
In about a month, you should be fully recovered.”
Leones picked up a pen and paper from the table and wrote a prescription.
Excited, Ariella looked at Leones, realizing that she had misunderstood him earlier.
He wasn’t harassing her. He was treating her legs.
All the hospitals had declared her legs irreparable for five years.
But today, a stranger had miraculously healed her.
“Is this a dream?”
Ariella touched her legs, still finding it hard to believe.
Just then…
Shouting and cursing suddenly echoed from outside the shop.
Ariella turned her head and saw several motorcycles blocking the shop entrance.
The hooligans who had bothered her earlier had come back.
“Great! The shop hasn’t closed yet!”
“Is that punk still here?”
“Come out already!”
The surrounding shopkeepers were scared and shut their doors as the hooligans brought more people.
Seeing this, Ariella turned pale with fear, urging Leones to ignore her and find a way to escape.
“Wait inside the shop,” Leones turned and left, saying, “I’ll handle this.”
Standing at the shop entrance, Leones glanced outside.
Dozens of hooligans seemed insignificant in his eyes.
“Alex! That’s him!”
“Yes! He somehow made Radley’s crotch bleed profusely!”
The hooligans who had fled before pointed at Leones while huddling around their leader and shouted.
As soon as the man named Alex saw Leones, he was visibly startled.
Could this be… Dragon King!?
With a jolt, Alex hurried forward and bowed, greeting. “Mr. Bloom!”
