Vincent regretted it deeply. "I should've kicked him out earlier!"Liam's appearance undoubtedly disrupted the balance on the field. Vincent did not dare to imagine the final outcome if any conflict erupted.However, at the moment, no one would pay attention to Vincent's thoughts.Amidst the suffocating sensation among the police officers, the middle-aged man, accompanied by thousands of soldiers, had arrived at the stairs in front of the police station.Vincent and the other police officers could already feel the chilling sensation emanating from the men before them. However, what happened next made Vincent shudder abruptly, freezing him in place.The leader, clad in military attire, halted his steps in front of Liam.Then, he bent down and spoke respectfully. "Grandmaster Burrey, I apologize for the delay. We have caused you inconvenience!"Gabriel's voice echoed through the silent police station.Snap!As Gabriel's voice rang out, the thousands of soldiers behind him sudden
The day finally arrived when the police force came to understand the true meaning of authority. However, disbelief lingered.It all started when a handsome man appeared at the precinct. Suddenly, the military surrounded the police station.That man and his composure dissolved the imposing military personnel with ease.It shook them to their core.Who was he? How could someone of such caliber find himself in their precinct?However, unlike the others, Vincent and Walter understood everything.They had witnessed the events from the moment Liam entered the station to the arrival of Serena and the others.Vincent's eyes widened, fixed on the scene before him, momentarily lost in disbelief.Vincent finally comprehended Liam's urgency to make a call. He understood the gravity of Liam's words about the consequences of delay.What Vincent did not know was that if it had not been for Gabriel's timely arrival, their precinct might have faced more than just encirclement.That worthless
Upon hearing Liam's words, Gabriel sighed and refrained from further questioning. He clearly knew something about Liam. Gabriel's respect for Liam extended beyond gratitude for saving his life. It stemmed from witnessing Liam's skills when Gabriel was treated in prison. Liam, initially an obscure figure in South City Third Prison, had mastered medical arts. To be a Grandmaster meant possessing not only compassion but also formidable methods. "Grandmaster Burrey, the assault on you cannot be easily dismissed," Gabriel remarked.Soon, a glint of determination flashed in his eyes. "I must find those behind it! Whoever dares harm you, Grandmaster Burrey, will face consequences!"Liam recalled Triboar mentioning Harvest Union as he died."It won't be resolved so easily, but you needn't involve yourself further in this matter."Gabriel shook his head vigorously, his resolve resembling a drumbeat. "No! What if they send more attackers? How will we deal with that?"Gabriel lifted hi
Although Gabriel had never lived there, he was well aware of the tight security in Hush Purple Gardens, where only the wealthy and powerful dwelled—a circumstance that surely would alleviate many troubles for Liam.Gabriel stared at Liam with determination, as if daring him to disagree.Observing Gabriel's demeanor, Liam shook his head reluctantly. Given Gabriel's persistence, refusing the key would likely prolong the ordeal. Moreover, extended stays in hotels were hardly ideal.Liam agreed, taking the key. "Fine, but I'll only be here temporarily.""Temporary! Temporary!"Gabriel chuckled foolishly, nodding repeatedly. However, judging by his expression, he clearly did not believe he was merely offering Liam a temporary residence.Meanwhile, Vincent and the other police officers stood by, utterly dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before them.They never anticipated witnessing such a spectacle firsthand—a young man incessantly berating a high-ranking officer, who not only remai
Liam glanced at the trembling police officers before him. "Alright. No need to be so nervous. You haven't done anything wrong."With those words, Liam prepared to leave. After all, he had stayed at the police station to deal with Gabriel. He knew there was an alert in his file left by Gabriel at that time.The police would undoubtedly handle Serpentine and Triboar, so staying at the station any longer seemed pointless.Before leaving, Liam turned to Vincent. "Oh, and if there are any leads regarding Serpentine and Triboar in the future, remember to contact me."He did not want Gabriel to intervene too much. After all, it involved the Hill family and could even touch upon the Harvest Union.Liam did not want too many people to know. Given Gabriel's personality, who knew what trouble he might stir up if he investigated it?"No problem! You can count on us!"Vincent nearly trembled as he spoke to Liam. Seeing everyone in the station in such a state, Liam could not help but shake hi
"Affirmative."Upon hearing Casey's command, Vincent and the other officers nodded. They understood Casey's concern.Casey turned to Vincent. "Are you certain that they're surrounding the precinct to take away Grandmaster Burrey and that Liam Burrey, as mentioned by Tobias Corona in our conversation, is the same Liam?"Vincent nodded. "Yes."Casey's eyes reddened, his frustration growing instantly. "Damn it! Does Tobias want to get me killed? Back then, he told me that Grandmaster Burrey was nothing but Serena's useless ex-husband. He told me to give him something to show off in front of Serena! If he's itching to die, he shouldn't drag me into it!"Vincent wore a bitter expression. "Chief, you mustn't believe such words in the future!""No, I can't swallow this indignation!" Casey declared. With that, he pulled out his phone and called Tobias. The recent situation almost brought Casey to ruin.On the other end, Tobias received Casey's call. He picked up the phone and flashed
Though burdened by guilt over the situation with Liam, Serena swiftly adjusted herself when discussing company matters, resuming her icy demeanor as a formidable businesswoman."Thank you, Mister Corona. We appreciate your efforts on behalf of the Lloyd Group."Tobias's gaze lingered with a hint of desire as he smiled broadly. "Serena, let me introduce you to some details about my military friend..."While Tobias introduced Serena to his friend, Liam, whom they thought had offended Casey, had already returned to the hotel. The events that unfolded after his return from the provincial capital overwhelmed him. Sitting in his room, he sighed softly.As for Serena, though Liam had been deeply moved upon seeing her when she arrived at the police station, the subsequent skepticism and attitude from Tobias and Serena left him furious. He no longer wished to explain himself. However, one thing continued to weigh on his mind—the look of shock on Triboar's face before he died, as if reco
"I almost thought I got the wrong person!" Layla's face was filled with joy as she approached Liam. The last time Layla returned to South City, she wanted to see Liam but could not.Liam also smiled. "Layla, what are you doing here?"Layla chatted away. "I didn't want to stay at home. I needed some fresh air. Coincidentally, there's a villa for sale in the Hush Purple Gardens. Everyone's busy, so my sister asked me to take a look. Liam, you have no idea. Things at home have been chaotic lately..."She pouted, wanting to share recent events in the Lloyd family with Liam. However, Layla seemed to sense something and abruptly stopped. In her words, the reason for the chaos in the Lloyd family was Liam.After Liam was released from prison, the Lloyd family faced numerous setbacks and misfortunes, all of which were blamed on Liam by the family members. They believed Liam's bad luck was affecting the entire family.The Lloyd family spent their days at home complaining and blaming Liam
"When you go to communicate with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, make sure to explain things thoroughly to Grandmaster Burrey."Matthias was worried that not allowing the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation to excessively promote the White Glycoside Cream might leave a bad impression on Liam.He looked at Agustine and said, "It's not that we're not allowing the promotion of White Glycoside Cream, but this moment is just too special.""For the future of traditional Hestian medicine, we hope Grandmaster Burrey can understand."Once the current chaos in the market calms down, the Hestia Drug Administration will be able to step in and help the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation with the promotion, as a form of compensation!"If this situation affects the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, I will apologize to Grandmaster Burrey in person when I go to South City in a few days!"It was clear that Matthias truly valued Liam. When he spoke, he was sincere!Mainly because the effe
The head of the Hestia Drug Administration went to South City just to meet Liam!However...Faced with this astonishing scene, Agustine did not react much.His attention was always focused on something else."Mister Kien..."Agustine pointed to the approval document for the White Glycoside Cream under Matthias's hand. "The document you signed, I've already taken it, haven't I?"At this moment, he was in a rush to take the approval document and quickly return it to Grandmaster Burrey!"You..."Upon seeing this, Matthias froze for a moment.How long has Agustine known Grandmaster Burrey, and yet he was already in this situation!"Hurry and take it!" Matthias waved his hand, showing a hint of impatience. "It's just an approval document for a product launch. Why are you in such a hurry?""Thank you, Mister Kien!"Hearing this, Agustine quickly stepped forward and grabbed the approval for White Glycoside Cream tightly in his hand. "About what you said, that you were going to Sou
"Because whether it's the Bellflower or the White Glycoside Cream, they are both products of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation..."Agustine looked up at Matthias and softly responded."What!"Upon hearing Agustine's words, Matthias's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief!Just now, he was too shocked to ask Agustine who owned the White Glycoside Cream. But Matthias had never imagined that the White Glycoside Cream was also a product of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation!If the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's initial release of Bellflower was a coincidence, then now, bringing out the White Glycoside Cream means that the Foundation might have even more hidden products!No wonder Agustine said that to find effective treatments, one doesn't need to dig through the earth!"So, you came to Juneau this time because the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation entrusted you?" Matthias looked at Agustine."I don't have the qualifications to be entrusted by the Verdant Harvest Char
It was not just Hansen and the others. Agustine, standing at the back, was also stunned.He had never expected what was happening in front of him!At first, Agustine only thought that after Matthias learned about the efficacy of the White Glycoside Cream, he would quickly sign the market approval documents!So, when Matthias notified all the department heads, Agustine still had no idea what was going on! But who would have known?In the next moment, he heard Matthias's new command!Just the effect of the White Glycoside Cream alone had changed all of Matthias's previous views!His series of new commands now meant that the entire Hestian drug supervision department would have to change its attitude toward ancient Hestian medicine!From once looking down on traditional Hestian medicine, they now aimed to actively seek new Hestian herbal medicines!Agustine had not expected that his initial, accidental action would cause such profound effects.At the same time, the people in th
"Mister Kien, please speak!"Hearing Matthias's words, everyone in the room immediately straightened their postures, their expressions turning serious.Hansen, standing at the forefront, felt a twinge of nervousness.The current situation inexplicably gave him the feeling that something major was about to happen!"Regarding the recent policies our Pharmaceutical Supervision Department implemented for the approval of traditional Hestian medicine for market entry, I propose some changes," Matthias began."Any traditional Hestian medicine applying for approval must undergo special consideration and independent verification of its effectiveness."As long as the medicine meets efficacy standards, we will open a green channel for expedited processing, aiming to complete the approval within five days!"However, if any such medicine is found to involve false advertising, the company responsible will be blacklisted completely, and all its products will be barred from submission for testi
After hearing Agustine's response, Matthias was utterly speechless.This was simply too astonishing!The situation unfolding before him was nothing like what he initially anticipated.At first, Matthias intended to use himself as an example to persuade Agustine not to blindly trust traditional Hestian medicine. But he never expected that the White Glycoside Cream would actually work!Not only did it work—it worked so well that it shocked him!If Matthias were not absolutely certain he was wide awake, he might have thought he was dreaming.This was nothing short of a miracle!"Agustine..."A long silence followed.Finally, Matthias's voice broke the stillness. He stared blankly at Agustine, his voice dry and hoarse. "Are you sure this ointment... is actually traditional Hestian medicine?"It was more than just traditional Hestian medicine!The efficacy of the White Glycoside Cream had already surpassed Matthias's understanding of medicine itself."Mister Kien, that's why I s
"Mister Kien, please don't move."Seeing the scene before him, Agustine hurriedly grabbed the White Glycoside Cream and walked over.Then, with a look of heartfelt concern in his eyes, he gently applied the White Glycoside Cream to the scar on Matthias's lower abdomen.There was barely any of the ointment left!"You..." Matthias was speechless as he watched Agustine's behavior.Right now, Agustine seemed completely bewitched!"All done!"After applying the ointment, Agustine smiled with satisfaction."That's it?"Matthias's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Agustine."Agustine, can you wake up already? Is this the so-called miraculous herbal medicine you were raving about?"At first, Matthias had thought Agustine was under some kind of spell when he enthusiastically praised the White Glycoside Cream.He had imagined it would at least produce some noticeable reaction—like those street charlatans with their so-called miracle cures relying on tricks to deceive people.
Unfortunately, Agustine approached the wrong person!"I'm approving a one-month leave for you. Take a good rest."Matthias did not want to engage with Agustine any further. He lowered his head and began drafting a leave note for Agustine: "I hope after taking some time off, you'll be able to calm down!"Given Agustine's current state, he was no longer fit to continue working at the Hestia Drug Administration."Mister Kien, you..."Seeing this, urgency flashed across Agustine's face. He gritted his teeth and took out the few remaining samples of the White Glycoside Cream.Originally, Agustine planned to cover the samples with poplar leaves and conduct further testing! He was deeply curious about how this White Glycoside Cream could deliver such miraculous effects. But right now, there was no time to worry about that!"What you're holding—don't tell me it's that so-called miracle Hestian medicine?"Matthias frowned deeply. Agustine's current behavior was starting to make him ge
When Matthias was carefully reviewing the documents just now, he noticed that the 'White Glycoside Cream' Agustine mentioned was a type of traditional Hestian medicine.The more he realized this, the less he could understand it.Matthias knew Agustine well and was fully aware of how much Agustine despised traditional Hestian medicine from Hestia.In fact, it could be said that anyone working in Hestia's Drug Administration Department harbored some degree of prejudice against traditional Hestian medicine!After all, they dealt with related drugs daily and understood just how detestable many so-called traditional Hestian remedies were!This was precisely why Matthias always felt he and Agustine were like-minded, and they had a good personal relationship because of it. But Matthias never expected that this time, when Agustine returned, he would ask him to sign off on the approval for a traditional Hestian medicine!And this particular traditional medicine, which was only allowed to
