Meanwhile, in a nearby hospital room, Dahlia’s grandfather lay unconscious, his face ashen.Florence and several members of the Nicholson family gathered together as they discussed countermeasures hushedly.“How peculiar. Old Mr. Nicholson has always been fine. Why did he suddenly fall ill?”“Exactly! He’s always looked so strong and healthy. Who would’ve guessed that this would happen if he fell ill.”Everyone sighed with pity for the old man.“How’s Granddad?” Dahlia bolted into the room in her heels. She had been in a meeting when she received the news of her grandfather falling ill and rushed over as fast as possible.“Dahlia, the doctors think that he might not make it,” Florence mumbled, shaking her head.“What?” Dahlia’s face paled. “How could that be? Wasn’t he fine yesterday?”“I think it’s weird too! But maybe this is his fate,” Florence sighed.“Where’s the doctor? Doctor!” Dahlia called, distraught.“It’s futile. All sorts of doctors have checked him. They say his

“Who said I can’t do it? Fine. Then, who else can save Granddad if not me?” Dustin growled. He realized that it was impossible trying to reason with women using logic!“The only one who can save Grandpa now is the incredible Dr. Ross Leister!” Dahlia answered with a grim expression.“That’s right! Matt’s already gone to call the doctor. If Dr. Leister agrees to help us, we can save Old Mr. Nicholson. There’ll be no need for a quack like you.”“Dr. Ross Leister? Who’s that?” Dustin asked.“He’s Dr. Cross’ apprentice who specializes in treating rare diseases. He’s way better than you are!” Florence stated proudly. As soon as the words left her mouth, two people entered the room. The first was Matt. He was followed by a man in his 30s in a white coat and a pair of glasses, with a haughty and pretentious expression on his face.“Matt! Did you manage to get Dr. Leister?” Florence rushed over.“Of course!” With a gentle smile, Matt introduced the man, “This is Dr. Leister.”“So you’

Dustin was speechless as he faced the cold look on Dahlia’s face and a rightfully angry crowd. Eventually, after a few minutes of silence, he exited the ward. He knew no one would believe him no matter what he said.“Humph! He should’ve left hours ago! What a nuisance!”“I know! He has no awareness at all!”The crowd insulted and criticized Dustin as he left the room.Florence smiled and said, “Dr. Leister, that ignorant bastard is gone. Please calm down.”“Ross, can you let it go this time, for my sake? Curing the patient is an urgent matter. I’ll repay you greatly for this!” Matt chimed in.“How could I ignore your offer, Mr. Laney? But this will only happen once. I won’t let it go next time!” warned the doctor with glasses.“Of course! Most definitely!”The crowd nodded and looked at Matt gratefully.“How maddening! That useless bastard Dustin only knows how to make things worse. Mr. Laney is the only person who could save the situation,” thought Florence.“Alright, go fet

Dr. Ross Leister examined the patient again. However, Henry’s heart was beating rapidly as his body convulsed and trembled out of his control.At that moment, the doctor was at a loss for words.“This does not look good…” Ross was puzzled. He sighed and said, “The patient was previously diagnosed with other illnesses. Now that he’s got the Havaska virus, it’s impossible to cure him. It looks like he won’t make it. You should… start preparing for the end.”“What?!”Everyone froze at his statement.“After treating him for so long, this is the outcome? Prepare for the aftermath?!” “Dr. Leister! Please, you have to save my grandfather. I’m willing to spend every penny I have!” Dahlia begged.“I…” As the doctor opened his mouth to speak, the door was kicked open with a loud bang.Dustin entered the room with a gloomy look on his face. Without a word, he swiftly pulled out a silver syringe and stabbed Henry’s chest. The fluids in the needle rushed into the man’s veins with a whoosh.

“He… He’s awake?!”Everyone was stunned. No one would’ve thought that a glass of warm water was all Henry Nicholson needed to wake up. How miraculous!“No way! Did Dustin really cure the old man’s illness?!” “That’s odd. Even Dr. Leister couldn’t cure him. How did he do it?”The crowd exchanged looks of surprise as they watched Henry’s breathing stabilize. For a moment, they looked at Dustin in a different light. They never imagined that Dustin, who had come from an unknown background, would have been the one to cure Henry.“Granddad, how do you feel?” Dahlia asked hurriedly. “That’s weird. One moment everything felt cold and then hot. It seems that I’m okay now.”Henry ran his hands over his body, looking surprised. Earlier, he thought that his life had come to an end. He never imagined that feeling would disappear so quickly!“Dad, you… you’re really okay?” Florence could not believe it.“Of course. I feel refreshed and full of energy!” Henry smiled. Hearing this, everyo

“Sir! You’re here?!”Upon seeing Dr. Rowan Cross, Ross was stunned. He rushed to greet the older man with respect. At that moment, he looked very humble. “Sir?”“Could it be… this person is the great Dr. Cross?!”After learning the identity of the older man, the Nicholson family members were excited. They surrounded him, trying to gain his favor. “Oh my! What an honour to meet the great Dr. Cross in person!” “I’ve heard a lot about you, Dr. Cross. I’m so lucky to meet you!” Everyone chimed in, praising the doctor. One should know that this doctor was well-known across the seven seas. Not only was he good at curing others, but he also had a vast network of connections and was incredibly influential. Just a word from him could change one’s life. “Dr. Cross, aren’t you resting? Why are you here?” the doctor asked curiously.“A friend called me saying you were messing around with a patient. Did such a thing happen?” replied Rowanross. He was not happy. Earlier that day, h

Rowan’s actions had left everyone in the room stunned.“N—no way! Dustin knows Dr. Cross? How is that possible?!”“Oh my goodness, Dustin is incredible! He can even make Dr. Cross apologize?”Everyone in the room exchanged glances of shock as they watched Dustin’s calm, unfazed expression and the respectful look on Dr. Cross’ face. They had difficulty picturing someone mediocre knowing someone like Dr. Cross.“Are—are my eyes playing tricks on me?” Florence was in disbelief. The great Dr. Rowan Cross, the best doctor in the world, was apologizing to Dustin? How unbelievable!“Could it be that… Dustin’s Hexanavir really was a gift from Dr. Cross?” Dahlia was also shocked to her core. To be honest, ever since the divorce, she noticed that Dustin had become more discreet.“What a nuisance!” Matt muttered to himself, looking gloomy. Dr Cross’ appearance had disrupted his plan.“S—sir… You really know this guy?” Ross asked in disbelief, cradling his face.“Know him? Mr. Rhys is my

“Rhys! What is your problem? So you got lucky and saved the old man! You don’t have to be so rude about it!” Florence cried, clearly upset. How dare he treat her daughter that way? Did he think he was all that? “At least I saved him. What about all of you? He almost lost his life because of you!” Dustin retorted coldly. “You… What is this attitude?!” Florence sputtered. She had almost reached her limit. “Enough! Stop yelling at each other! What a disgrace!” Henry then demanded, “Florence, all of you, go outside. I need to speak to Dustin for a while.” “Humph!” Although Florence was not happy about it, there was no other option but to leave. As soon as they left the room, the group started muttering.“Say, do you think Old Mr. Nicholson wanted to talk to Dustin about his will or something?” “I’m not sure. That guy is great at getting on Old Mr. Nicholson’s good side. No matter what, we need to be careful!” “Ha! I don’t understand. James is his biological grandson, and yet

There were a lot of people gathered in the bar. Some of them were spectators. Others were involved in the fight. The group that the onlookers were most interested in was a small group led by James. A few of them had bruises covering their faces and blood rushing from their faces. They were forced to kneel on the ground, looking hopeless.“James, how did you end up like this?” Dahlia could not help but frown when she noticed James’ injuries.“Sis! You’re finally here!” James staggered as he stood up. It was almost as if he had met an angel.“Oh! My poor son! Who did this to you? Tell me. I’ll give them what they deserve!” Florence shrieked at James, heartbroken. Even when her son made a mistake, she could not bring herself to life a finger against him. There was no way she would allow others beat him up like this.“Mom! That’s the bastard who hit me!” James pointed behind him, looking vicious. Florence followed his gesture, and her eyes fell on a beautiful woman in a revealing d

“No wonder nobody dares to cause trouble here. Who knew Rosaline was Lord Draco's woman?""It's not that nobody dares to cause trouble; it's just that anybody who caused trouble is dead! A tycoon with a net worth of billions flirted with Rosaline, and Lord Draco ordered that his limbs be chopped off. After the incident, the tycoon didn’t dare lift a finger and even apologized personally.""Fuck! That's brutal!""No shit. Lord Draco is South City's biggest bully. No one dares disrespect him!"After finding out who the woman, Rosaline, was, the bar erupted in a furor. Some were shocked, some were in awe, and some sat back to watch the show."We're in trouble this time!" James gulped as cold sweat dripped down his forehead. If he had known that Sir Draco ruled this place, he would not have dared to cause trouble, even if someone had put a gun to his head."How did I end up offending the devil himself?"Florence shrugged, her face filled with fear. She wasn't as fiery as before. She
