Lucas leaned against the chair, his face beaming with pride.After today, Simon’s reputation would be tarnished, and the hospital would never allow him to continue his work anymore.From now on, Simon would live the rest of his life with a bad name.Hanson would take over the hospital director position after Simon was fired.One could say that it was solely Lucas’ father, Sebastian, who had got Hanson to his position as a department head.Lucas would be promoted to deputy director of the hospital through Hanson in another two years as well.Hanson would retire in a few years, and the director’s position would be passed to Lucas, naturally.‘My future is bright and limitless…’ Lucas was in a great mood and began indulging in wild thoughts. He found Simon to be an eyesore for a long time. ‘Simon abuses his power despite having just a little capability. He’s so old that he’s going to die soon. Isn’t it better for him to retire early?’All of a sudden, the door of Lucas’ office w
Everyone was dumbfounded. ‘So the hospital director has been substituted?’The incident was resolved satisfactorily, so Kayson was preparing to return to the ward. Noticing the situation, Simon hastily said, “Thank you so much for your help today, Kayson.”“Don’t mention it, Mr. Zinn.” Kayson smiled and brushed it off.“I shall buy you a meal later on to repay your favor,” said Simon in all seriousness.“Sure. You can decide on a time in a few days.”Then, Kayson left. Bradley said nonchalantly, “Mr. Zinn, you shall perform your duties properly and engage in the duties of the hospital’s director from now on.”“Don’t worry, Mr. Walton Sr., I promise I won’t disappoint you!” Simon was extremely earnest.Bradley looked toward Sebastian, whose face was dull with dejection, and let out a grunt. “Mr. Carter, you’re on your own now!”Sebastian heaved a sigh bitterly. “You’re right, Mr. Walton Sr.…”Bradley and his son left soon afterward while Simon was suddenly surrounded by s
Kayson returned to the ward.“Where did you go?” Sadie stared at Kayson.“Didn’t you mention that Mr. Zinn was in trouble? I went to check it out.”“What happened in particular?” asked Sadie.“Someone slandered him, but his name is already cleared. It’s not a big deal,” answered Kayson.Coincidentally, Liam returned and said as soon as he entered the room, “I heard quite a number of people discussing an incident in the hospital earlier when I entered the building.“Dr. Simon Zinn is now the director of the hospital.”“What!?” Sadie asked in astonishment, “How did that happen out of nowhere?”“I don’t know the details, but they were talking about the director’s son framing Dr. Zinn, then he was exposed.”Sadie’s face was filled with puzzlement. She wondered if Kayson was involved in the incident as well.“Did you bring it?” asked Beatrice.“Of course.” Liam passed her the food.“Would you like some, Kayson?” asked Liam.“No, thank you.” Kayson shook his head.Liam did not
Kayson came to understand Michael’s intention. “So, you’re saying that I should commission the Waltons to protect the Wolfendens, Uncle Michael?”“That’s right,” said Michael. “Hogan reached out to me to inquire about you, but I didn’t reveal too much.“However, it’s possible that the Waltons have offended you, and they’re trying to redeem themselves, so you have a better impression of them. If you’re willing, you may ask them to send their staff members to protect the family.”Kayson considered for a moment and answered, “Sure, I understand what you’re conveying here, Uncle Michael. I shall give Mr. Walton a call.”“Sure, shall I pass you his number then? He asked for your number, but I didn’t give it to him.”“Sure.”Kayson called Hogan after receiving the number.“Hello…”“Mr. Walton, it’s me.”“Dr. Yarde!” Hogan became excited instantly. Kayson told Hogan about his request.Hogan accepted the task without the slightest hesitation. “You can count on the Waltons! We will
At Wolfenden Corp.’s chairman's office…“Dad, it’s so odd. It’s said that Wilson hasn’t even left his company building these few days.”Sadie had been worried about Wilson picking on the company since she could not manage the company matters these two days, but she did not expect that nothing had happened. It was as if Wilson had disappeared!After some investigation, she discovered that Wilson was living in the company now. What bewildered them was that Gillete Group was caught deep in scandals recently—either about the quality of its projects, safety issues at the construction sites, or illegal procedures.Despite that, Wilson did not seem to care about it, as he allowed the scandals to ferment and aggravate.Some of the banks that had provided his company loans were asking for repayment from him now too.“Yes! It feels so good!” Liam barked a hearty laugh. “Serves Wilson Gillete right!”Sadie was also in a good mood. “I don’t know what he’s doing. There are so many things goi
Secondly, his blood and energy were largely depleted. He was aged and had sustained injuries back when he was younger, so it was a matter of course that the loss was serious.Thirdly, his nerves were traumatized. They required specific needling and herbs to nourish them back to recovery.The easiest to treat among the three was actually the severed tendons, as Kayson had already reconnected them for Hugh. The hardest was the third—he knew the needling method, but the herb was a challenge to find.He was in the forest to try his luck.After a long time of strolling in there, he only managed to find some aiding herbs, but the main herb was nowhere to be seen.Kayson could only call Michael.“Uncle Michael, can I ask for your help to look for a herb named Ennead-Liche?”“Of course!” Michael was more than happy to do that for Kayson.Kayson chortled. “Remember to let me know when you’ve found it.”“Don’t worry! I’ll get it as soon as I can!”Kayson then described the appearance a
“Oh yeah, Atticus, you mentioned that you have something personal to take care of here in Clouspring. Can you tell us now?” Lincoln asked curiously.He had three older seniors who were like his uncles, and the one in front of him was the oldest one among the three, Atticus Goldman.Lincoln had only asked his senior, Rowan, to come along back then, but Atticus claimed that he needed to go to Clouspring as well and came with him. He had not said what it was for.“To kill someone,” Atticus answered impassively.Lincoln and Rowan were surprised. “Who in Clouspring requires your personal attention?”How could a small place like Clouspring have master-level bigshots?“Clouspring isn’t a famous place, but it’s interesting,” said Atticus. “Titus Wood, Bradley Walton, the extended family of the Wolfenden, and the one I want to kill this time.”Lincoln asked in astonishment, “Bradley Walton… the old patriarch of the Waltons?”“That’s right,” replied Atticus. “Bradley was a practitioner w
“You’ve already achieved steelification!”“That’s right!” Atticus nodded. “You aren’t ever my rival now.”With that, Atticus stepped forward and punched Bradley in the chest.A crack echoed as a fist mark appeared on Bradley’s chest as he flew tens of meters backward!“Father!” Hogan hurried to him frantically.Atticus pulled his fist back slowly and announced in pride, “This is how weak you are. You no longer deserve to be my enemy!”After that, Atticus left with a long stride, followed by Lincoln and Rowan. They were thrilled at how amazing their senior was.Hogan paid them no mind as his eyes were reddened looking at his father, who kept coughing blood. “Hurry! Start the car! To Bwell Therapeutics!”…“Atticus, you’re amazing!” Lincoln sighed in admiration. “I wonder when I can be as good as you are.”Atticus smiled. “You’re talented. You’ll be on my level in less than 20 years. By that time, you’ll be a master too.”“And you’ll be hundreds of times better than you are no
