Chapter 239: Cash first.
“Doctor, bring the doctor…” someone shouted with urgency.
Luna was on the bed already, shaking her poor father with desperation.
“Dad, dad….” she cried out.
“Are you trying to kill him when i have just saved him?” Phoebe questioned.
She moved to the doors and closed them, locking them from the inside. “You want to bring in a doctor, for what reason exactly? How many doctors has he seen ever since he started deteriorating? Why are you all panicking when his heartbeat is simply picking up speed?”
They all looked at the heart monitor and noticed that his heartbeat had truly increased and so had his pressure.
“So…but….” Luna’s mother stammered.
Phoebe opened her bag and brought out one IV fluid which was plain water with a drop of diluted water from the lake of life and death.
Expertly, she removed the one which had been attached to Duncan and replaced it with hers. Again, none of the Elithera’s attempted to stop her.
Curious, Phoebe looked around at them. “Aren’t you guys curious at all about what i am administering to him? Your calmness is making me uneasy, are you planning to stiff me on payment?” She backed away from the bed and looked at them suspiciously. “Cash first before we go further.”
Luna laughed lightly and stopped. “Isn’t it your method of working? I heard from Georgina Elroy that you do not like being questioned and only want to be spoken to when you ask a question. She advised us to be quiet and let you do your job without pissing you off because the spirit you have some supernatural abilities and when angered, they flare up in a frightening way.”
Again, the Elroys had found her another client. It was them that sent Luther her way and now the Elithera’s, she needed to thank them.
“The Elroy’s have been guests of our resort for many years, they come here for a vacation once a year. This year, they suddenly arrived without a reservation, their son looked pale. They booked a presidential suite and stayed in there for a month opening up only for the cleaners and to receive food.
After a month, they exited and turned into their normal jolly selves. It was Georgina that told me about you when i discussed my father’s strange illness with her. Truth be told, i had some doubts as i have never heard about something like luck borrowing but my eyes have been opened now.” Luna explained.
“Oooh.” Phoebe nodded slowly.
This explained why the Elithera’s had invited her over the hundreds of shamans in Magic city.
“How much money should i transfer to you? Will twenty million cover everything, including extra talismans for us all and medicine for my father. Georgina said you have tonics that you sell which revitalized her son’s body. Should i pay more?”
Luna held a bank card to Phoebe. Her hand was suddenly pushed away by her second uncle. He also held out a bank card to Phoebe.
“There is fifty million in here, twenty would be an insult to you…..”
Phoebe wagged her finger and shook her head. “I want two hundred million.”
Everyone in the room gasped, taken aback by Phoebe’s bold extravagant request.
“Before you all accuse me of greed, let me tell you what would have become of your futures if i didn’t come today. In a few months, you would bury Mr. Duncan, two weeks later you would follow him to death by throwing yourself off a bridge.” she was pointing at Luna’s mother.
“Me!!’ the woman exclaimed.
Phoebe did not address her and continued on. “You would be shot to death by an enemy of your family in the winter a few months later. Your body would be found frozen after the arrival of spring.”
She moved to the second uncle. “You would go to jail for for insider trading and selling secrets to Eagle country.”
He laughed and shook his head. “Are you crazy, why would i work with Eagle country?”
“Don’t you know how framing works?” She retorted. “You, stabbed to death in an alley after attending a boxing match and meeting some old friends from the business circle in the hopes resurrecting the dead Elithera empire.” She turned to Luna. “Finally, you sweet Luna. Your cause of death would be drowning and the conclusion according to the police would be suicide.”
Phoebe eyed them one by one. “You are not the only Elithera’s that would die or end up miserable of course. In three years, the Elithera’s would be nothing but history, your hotels and resorts would be renamed. By breaking this spell, i have changed the course of your lives and set them back on their original tracks. Is 200 million too much for a person that has saved your Elithera empire?”
They all looked at Phoebe with doubt on their faces, they did not believe her words, not that she cared. For her it was simple, if they paid, she would help them again if they ever run into trouble.

If they did not, she would never assist them in any way, ever again and she had a feeling that they would need her services again, someday.
“You should also consider the difficulty of the job, i have worked hard to bring Mr. Duncan back from the brink of death.” she added.
Luna’s mother scoffed, what hard work was Phoebe speaking of? She barely broke a sweat when she broke the spell.
“I will pay, Luna volunteered.”
“Luna!” her mother exclaimed.
“I will pay.” Luna repeated firmly.
She got her phone out and asked for Phoebe’s account number. Immediately, she made the transaction, paying the 200 million Phoebe wanted in full.
“Thank you.” Phoebe patted Luna on the back with a broad smile on her face.
She went back to work, injecting some medicine into Duncan’s body.
“Only give him IV’s fluids from me and feed him the supplements i provide. Do it for two months, he is extremely depleted, we must take things slow Make sure that none of these things is contaminated or poisoned.”
Phoebe gave more instructions as she placed the supplements on the table and the IV bags as well.
“Because you are good clients i won’t eat your money and run, i will provide ten protection talismans for free. If you want more, order from my cafe. I have a variety, you can check my website and see which ones you would like.
In the meantime, you should exercise caution, a lot of caution. Whoever cast the spell has experienced backlash so they will approach you and try to find out what happened. You should watch out for that sixth uncle that brought defective sage, i don’t think he had good intentions.
If you need anything else, i will be here for three more days enjoying the services of your resort so you can reach me easily.”
She waved at Luna, turned around and left with her undead animals that had not yet returned to the coins.
When she was gone, Luna’s mother immediately questioned her daughter. “Why did you give her 200 million?”
