“Blaker, find that young man and send him my business card. When the young master has recovered, I will host a feast for him to show our gratitude.” An elderly man with a solemn face spoke in a deep voice. He was Elder Greene, part of the Greene Family, one of the most influential families in Mediterrania. As the elder of the family, he was the most influential figure in that area.He was very grateful for the young man, his daughter-in-law described, for his intervention and saving his son from the brink of death. Moreover, a man with such an ability would make a worthy friend for the Greene Family. Regardless, it would be good to show his appreciation towards Jason Sky.In the hotel, Jason had just entered the private dining hall before hearing a shrewd voice. “This no-good son-in-law actually dared to make us wait. How arrogant!” From the voice, Jason immediately knew it was his mother-in-law’s shrewd sister.“It was a mistake to choose such a person to be our son-in-law.” His mo
The truth was everyone else had also heard of the commotion. Jason merely reacted quicker by walking towards it.“So what if you walked quickly? Not like you could solve the problem in this manner,” A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses spoke lightly.“Hank, there should be nothing wrong with someone looking out for her husband?” An indescribably weird voice rang. The tone, however, was filled with apathy.The one who spoke was a man with the demeanor of a rich upstart. He wore a full suit with slicked-back hair and a glimmering gold watch on his wrist. Jason, with his levels of cultivation, could naturally hear the dialogue between those two.The guy with the gold-rimmed glasses was Hank Akers, the second son-in-law of the eldest uncle of the Dale Family—he had a little influence. As for the guy with the slicked-back hair was Clark Hobbs, the first son-in-law of the eldest uncle, who worked in the real estate industry with numerous assets under his name.Jason mostly knew the motivat
“I hate anyone who calls me a rascal. It is an insult to my identity. You’ve got guts, kid.” Doug stared at Jason and smirked.A group of black-clothed men soon approached from afar. Clark could not help but tremble as he saw what was happening. He hinted at Madison to leave while he spoke, “Mr. Buck, I won’t bother you. I will take my leave.”“It was I who caused this ruckus. I will not leave just like that,” Madison said stubbornly.He took the opportunity to avert Doug’s attention from Madison to Jason, to ensure her safety. He had done a fine job at that, it was necessary, and his family would have approved of his actions. They could not afford to provoke Doug. As for Jason, he did not care if he lived or died.“Maddie…” Miranda’s mother muttered, sounding extremely dissatisfied with her.Hearing Miranda’s responses, Jason's slight smirk had found its way up onto his calmed face. Even if she had not possessed any romantic feelings towards him, the action she took to protect hi
The man in question did not seem to be anyone distinguished, but the person he represented was one. The Greene Family, they were one of the most influential families in Mediterrania. He announced his presence meant that he was representing the will of the Greene Family. Although Doug was influential, he could only bow his head when facing the actual ‘royalty’ in town.“The elder is here?” Doug asked in a hushed tone while looking at young Blaker.“He is not. I am here to manage something in his stead,” Blaker responded with a smirk on his face.“Whatever is it, I’m willing to help,” Doug solemnly replied. He had hoped to create a bond with the Greene Family; although they knew of each other, he could barely be considered as acquaintances with the Greene Family.Everyone had halted their actions at this point; even the ones making phone calls had stopped altogether. They are all dazed with amazement when looking at the well-dressed man. They wondered who the person that made Doug ob
The truth was he did not know of Arthus Greene, the person named on the business card.“Then why would they help you?” Miranda spoke her mind. She somehow felt that her future brother-in-law had changed, but she could not put her finger on where.“Mistaken identity?” Jason saw the sympathetic glances of the family members and smirked.“If you don’t want to talk about it, fine!” Madison’s aunt groaned. She believed that Jason was purposely hiding it.Jason shrugged. ‘That’s life in the current day and age, nobody would believe you when you speak the truth.’“Might be someone he hired! Nowadays, some people would hire someone to act like someone else.” Someone spoke mockingly, and it was the eldest aunt’s son-in-law, Jordan Sesto. He had seen events like these frequently happen on the internet.After he said that, everyone displayed doubt as they looked at Jason. After all, due to Jason’s past reputation, he was completely deserving of being doubted.“Jason! Elder Greene said he w
“Really? Then how did you manage to meet the Greene Family?” Madison smiled coldly.“Elder Greene had invited you? Do you think anyone could just attend their feast? And you promised to bring this many people along? Could you not have made a more believable lie? Will you hire someone else to pretend as Elder Greene when the time comes? I know you have been dealing with some issues, but I don’t want you to change other people’s opinions about you this way.” Madison spoke in a disappointed tone.“I didn’t hire someone to do an act.” Jason looked at Madison and frowned. “And I have never felt bad when I’m beside you. I do not care what they think of me. What I care about is what you think of me. If you don’t believe me, go ask them yourself.” Jason handed the business card over to Madison.Looking at Madison’s stunning face, his eyes showed a glimpse of gentleness. “I did not amount to anything back then and always caused you trouble. Now, I’m afraid that you would think that I’m too o
Jason sought after the source of the commotion. As he approached, he saw a medical center named Prosperity Hall. In front was a middle-aged woman, wearing mourning attire, knelt in front of a man that was laid down on top of a stretcher. The man looked sickly ill and was obviously in a near-death state.“Mrs. Johnson, I would admit to mistreating him if I had done so, but I haven’t, so there is no need to do this. You can do whatever you want, even if you wanted to take my life.” An elderly man stood in front of the middle-aged woman and spoke softly. His tone was calm, but it carried a hint of resignation.“Please leave the area. There’s nothing to see here. I will admit my faults if I have done any. I would not bully anyone,” Looking at the spectating crowd, the elder said calmly. He had been practicing medicine in the area for decades and was well known in that area. The spectators thought someone was causing issues and wanted to help, but they did not imagine that the elder had c
The elderly healer looked at his granddaughter’s concerned stare, and he nodded with a bitter smile on his face.“Bring the man inside first. There’s no need to rush your issue.” Jason spoke calmly.Inside Prosperity Hall, Jason examined the building’s internal design. He lightly nodded and said, “The location was not that good, but the design of the building is nice enough.”The young lady looked angry as she heard what he said. She thought Jason was picky even after being gifted a medical center. However, she had not reacted since she was more concerned about her grandfather’s issue.”“Are there golden needles?” Jason asked the old man after examining.“Yes.” The elderly healer nodded. He then retrieved the golden acupuncture needles for Jason. He felt slightly embarrassed as he looked at the pristine-looking golden needles. He then spoke with an embarrassed tone, “My abilities are lacking. I have only used the silver needles.”Jason lightly smirked and walked towards the dying
