"No longer need to be treated? Have I recovered? Didn't you say that I would be dead in three days?"Sonya pretended to be surprised and mocked Chad. At the same time, she assessed him."You haven't recovered, but you're no longer curable. Please return and prepare for your funeral!"Chad stood up and motioned for Sonya to leave, but she remained motionless.Her logic prevented her from believing Chad, but she had a feeling he was telling the truth.Sonya trusted her instincts. She relied on her intuition as a lawyer over the last few years and won a string of court cases.That was how she rose through the ranks in the legal profession. Sonya was irritated at that point, but she did not leave."I am now your patient, Mr. Jennings. Please do not use this opportunity to avenge your grievance. Instead, do your job as a doctor."Chad glared at her and said, "I'm not a doctor. And you are indeed incurable!"Bang!Sonya was enraged. She slammed her palm on the table and pointed at
"You will die if you rely on him or have not met me. However, since you ran into me, we will see how much money you are willing to pay."Esther Wiles rubbed her hands as she spoke. Sonya Walt understood her immediately."Money is not a problem at all. You can have as much as you want, Dcotor, as long as—"However, while Sonya Walt spoke, the panic on her face vanished and was replaced by a sneer."You two are just trying to trick me. I almost fell into your trap. I am going to call the cops and have them arrest you right now."However, Esther and Chad were not afraid at all. Esther even said, "Call the police then. I haven't seen my son for a very long time now. He hasn't called me since he became the Chief of the Police Department two years ago."Chad smiled and said, "Aunty, Cousin Brother is busy at work."Esther was so angry that she stomped and said angrily, "What do you know? Your father was sentenced to life in prison because he insisted on acting justly."Chad could onl
"Snow, I am your aunt. Don't you remember me? I carried you when you were a child. You were very talented. You could meditate at the age of three. I have always wanted to take you as my disciple, but your father was unwilling to do that."Esther said excitedly as she held Marilyn's hand and looked at her. She was delighted.However, Chad said, "Meditation at the age of three? Aunty, are you sure she did not just fall asleep?""Can you please shut up? I haven't seen Snow in ten years. Snow, where have you been? Why didn't you contact your family? I miss you so much that my hair has turned gray."Marilyn looked at the white-haired female doctor. She did not know how to react.Chad replied lazily, "Don't listen to my aunt. Her hair has been gray for over 20 years.""You brat! Stop talking!"Esther was furious. She raised her hand and was about to hit Chad. However, Chad managed to dodge her.Marilyn took the opportunity to withdraw her hand and said respectfully, "Hello, Aunty, I
Chad and Esther were adamant that she was Snow.However, Chad and Esther did not argue further with Marilyn about that. Chad found reasons to change the subject of the conversation."Marilyn, didn't you want to learn about traditional Chinese medicine? My aunt is a doctor in this field. Why don't you learn from her?"Marilyn looked at Esther and asked weakly, "Is that true?"Chad nodded and said, "It's true. I have a patient. Let my aunt cure you."Marilyn looked at Esther with doubt as she asked weakly, "Is that alright?"She was terrified of Esther. Esther's touch to her bone was excruciatingly painful.Marilyn felt as if her head was about to swell from being pinched so tightly. Her head was still throbbing.Esther was overjoyed to learn that Marilyn wanted to learn from her."Snow wants to learn, and I am happy to help. Should we begin now?"However, Marilyn was still afraid of Esther. She looked at the sky and said, "It's too late. Let's do it some other day."Marilyn b
The handsome man in a suit sneered disdainfully, "What does it have to do to me that she's sick?"Sonya turned her head away, looking disgusted. She looked as if she did not want to see him. "Yes! Hansen, you are a dog. Why would a dog interfere in a human's affairs?"Hansen Kiere narrowed his eyes and hid his smile as he said coldly, "Yes, I am a dog. This dog was once your boyfriend, Sonya."When Chad and Esther overheard their heated exchanges, they knew exactly what was happening.Hansen continued sneering and said, "I'm curious about your sickness. Are you going to die soon? You dare come here to seek medical treatment? Aren't you afraid of being duped?"Sonya sneered and said coldly, "It is none of your business."Hansen smiled provocatively, looked at Chad, and gloated over her misfortune."That is right, I have no control over it. But I am glad to see them conning you for your money and body. And I think I made the smartest decision by ending our relationship a year ago
"Sonya, please give me another chance. I know I have made a mistake."Hansen lay on the ground, his arms around Sonya's legs, refusing to let go.He had no idea Sonya was the daughter of the country's most prominent legal family.He would never have broken up with Sonya if he had known sooner.Sonya turned her gaze to Hansen, who had lost all his teeth. She shook him off and returned to the store.Cecil was taken aback. She did not understand why Hansen acted the way he did."My dear, this woman doesn't deserve you. I am the one you love."Cecil attempted to lift Hansen, but he pushed her away."Go away! Who do you think you are? How can you compare yourself with Sonya?"Slap!"Hansen, you bastard!"Cecil, whom Hansen had nearly pushed down, slapped him and then walked away. She was angry and embarrassed.Hansen was still determined to stop Sonya. He immediately backed down when he saw Esther standing at the door."A man without dignity is not worthy of the Walt family's
Chad looked out the window and noticed the sky was getting dark. "Even though the skull protects the human brain, the brain can be squashed as long as the appropriate force of the blow is applied," he said as he gently closed the shop's door. "As a lawyer, I am sure you have dealt with similar situations—a person who simply slipped and died on the spot. The truth was that the brain had been squashed."A shiver ran down Sonya's spine. She suddenly realized she had just witnessed Hansen's brain being smashed and him going insane.She changed her gaze to Chad and Esther. She finally realized that her initial intuition was correct.She said fearfully, "No wonder my father always said we can mess with anyone but the doctor.""I will not harm others unless they harm me. That is our principle. Besides, let me reiterate—neither my aunt nor I are doctors."Sonya's interest was piqued when she heard Chad confirm that he was not a doctor."If you are not a doctor, how can you treat illnesse
Late at night, in the Hall of Herbs' backyard.Sonya's crying could be heard from the bedroom. "Chad, you bastard!"She wrapped her body in the quilt, her red, angry eyes fixed on Chad. She looked as if she wanted to kill someone.The floor was strewn with ripped clothing and used toilet paper.Chad stood shirtless to the side. He was sweating profusely but said nothing."Are you a man? How can I face anyone if this gets out?"Sonya's nose soured, and she cried when Chad did not say a single word.Chad then sat on the edge of the bed, which was unexpected. He said calmly as he lit a cigarette, "Hey, let's clarify things. You made it sound as if I did something to you.""What are you saying? You—"Sonya was not speaking clearly as she looked under the quilt and then at the blood-splattered toilet paper on the floor. She felt she was about to die."My aunt has crossed the line. This is nonsense." Chad complained as he started to get dressed. "I'll buy you some sanitary pads."
