Though Rowan and Richard were conversing telepathically, the elder still shook his head.

"Yes. There's no information on it. The so-called enhancement effects were discovered through generations of personal trials by our ancestors. Who would have thought it would result in this situation with Rosalyn? "But perhaps it's for the best. If this continued wouldn't it have led to endless problems down the line?

The bone was a family heirloom. So, they naturally treated it with great care. That was why they had invited Wesley to confirm its properties and set up multiple safeguards to prevent Felix from potentially claiming it under the guise of treatment. The key lay in Felix's intentions. If he wasn't trying to deceive them and the bone truly was responsible for Rosalyn's condition, then it had to be dealt with. Otherwise, who knew how many future descendants would suffer because of it? An heirloom it might be, but its true worth depended on whether it brought benefit or harm.

Two days passed in a flash. The door to the private room finally opened.

"Dr. Zeller, how is it going?"

Rowan had been waiting outside the entire time and immediately stepped forward. Rosalyn, too, was tense with anticipation, desperate to recover her health.

"It was touch and go, but we're through."

Felix forced a tired smile as he handed over a glass bottle filled with grayish-white powder.

"Excellent! I'll leave now so you can proceed with Rosalyn's treatment," Rowan said.

There was no need for him to verify the powder's authenticity-his safeguards were already in place.

Half an hour later, Rosalyn escorted Felix to the elevator.

"Thank you, Mr. Zeller. I've never felt so healthy in my life."

Felix smiled. "Of course. Otherwise, all that time would've been wasted, wouldn't it?"

Waiting nearby, Rowan gestured to an assistant, who opened a black briefcase.

"Dr. Zeller, here's your consultation fee. A check for 100 million dollars, the property deed to a villa in the Golden Estates in Alshire-a prime location, feel free to verify it-and a Rolls-Royce Cullinan parked in the villa's garage. You can check everything at your convenience."

Felix nodded and accepted the briefcase. "Good, I'll take my leave now."

As the elevator reached the ground floor, Felix was escorted out. He could feel a perceptive presence lingering around him-it was undoubtedly one of the Ruby family's elder-level figures, watching him closely. Did they think he would come here without being prepared?

Felix now had three Dragonspine bones in his body, making the refinement of this latest one a process of just two days.

The Ruby family's Dragonspine had been absorbed into his body, completely undetectable to outsiders. As for the powder he presented, it was pre-prepared from a different bone, ground down in advance.

When Felix finally left in his car, there was no reaction from the protective array, and Rowan received no warning from the family elder. Only then did Rowan breathe a sigh of relief, though there was a lingering trace of fear. "Rosalyn, your trip to Canraville might have been the Ruby family's saving grace."

Had the bone continued to be used, countless people might have fallen ill, never suspecting the true cause.

"You're exaggerating, Grandfather. Mr. Zeller is truly a good person."

Rowan chuckled and nodded. "Indeed! To have reached such heights in medicine at such a young age... Staying connected with him will undoubtedly be of immense benefit to your future."

Nearby, Richard had just put down his phone, his expression grim.

"Father, something's happened. The car Dr. Zeller was in just had an accident while making a turn. The crash wasn't serious, but the problem is with the other party-it's Mason Jacobs, the Jacobs family's prodigy." Chapter 637
