Beatrix, Frederick, and the others sighed at the man’s story.
Emmanuel never expected that besides Eastern Star Mountain, there were so many
impoverished people in Onza.
“Don’t cry. As long as you live, life will get better!” Mackenzie’s delicate hand gently
patted the man’s hand. The middle-aged man suddenly seemed to gain magical
courage and looked at this goddess-like figure in amazement.
“What about you?” Mackenzie turned to the elderly woman beside her. The woman was
as thin as a rail, barely breathing, with wrinkles covering her face, but the age on her
medical record was only 41. If her age wasn’t known, one would think she was older
than Terence, and Emmanuel and others would believe it too.
“I… I have nothing. I work as a cleaner in the Hadley factory, with a monthly salary of
only 2900. Last month’s wages are still owed to me. My family can’t afford to eat, and

my child is so hungry that he steals from others. He’s been caught and sent to juvenile
detention…” She said, tears streaming down her face.
Mackenzie nodded and gently patted her back, encouraging her, ‘Hang in there. The
Hadley factory will pay you last month’s wages, and your child will be released soon. He
can’t be without a mother.”
The woman cried even hoarser. Watching her cry without making a sound, Beatrix cried
tears of empathy. How could there be such misery in the world?!
Later, Mackenzie chatted with the other patients individually, encouraging them. Just
as she was about to reach Ellie, the middle-aged man who had just sighed suddenly
said, “Ah, beautiful lady, I actually still want to live, but I’m afraid I won’t make it. Our
illness can’t be cured at all, and we can’t afford the medical expenses…”
At that, Emmanuel knew it was time for him to intervene. He immediately said, “What if
I told you I could cure you for free?”

“What? This-” The middle-aged man’s eyes lit up with an evident glimmer of hope. But
the person beside him immediately whispered, “Elmer, are you crazy? We have to die…”
Ellie also opened her mouth anxiously, but after hearing this, she didn’t say anything.
“No! I don’t want treatment. Let us die. I don’t believe you can cure me. Don’t bother!”
The middle-aged man suddenly changed his attitude.
Emmanuel was puzzled and couldn’t help but glance at Mackenzie. It seemed that
there was a force controlling these people behind the scenes. Knowing that several
forces had united to attack Terence Group, it couldn’t be that simple to resolve.
In actuality, Emmanuel could forcibly treat these people, but what was the use? If these
people cooperated with the hidden hand behind the scenes to die, could he save them?
“Is someone blackmailing you? Or giving you money to cooperate in dying?” Mackenzie
suddenly asked.

The surrounding patients were dumbfounded, and the middle-aged man became even
more panicked. Is this woman really a god? How did she know?!
“Everyone, are your lives worth less than those people’s lives? Are you willing to help
those scheming people achieve their goals with your lives?” Mackenzie’s words were
piercing.
The poor people had pondered this question many times. They were all human beings,
yet why was the difference in social treatment so great? At first, they were unwilling,
but society’s oppression made them compromise repeatedly, lowering their threshold
until they became what they were now.

“Since you all say you’re workers at the Hadley factory, I believe you!” Mackenzie
suddenly spoke with conviction and determination. “I guarantee that as long as you
accept treatment and live on, I won’t let anyone blackmail you, and you must believe in
the law! No matter how much money those people offer you to die, as long as you
bravely live on, I will give you the same amount of money!”

The patients looked at each other in shock. Some were suspicious. But the
middle-aged man was the first to grit his teeth and say, “Ma’am, I believe you! I want to
live!”
“Well done!” Mackenzie encouraged him, then glanced at Emmanuel again.
