Jackson saw how stubborn his mother was and his anger flared as well: "Mom! You’ve killed people with your medical practice, and this issue was finally settled after twenty years of silence. Now, you’re bringing attention to yourself again and dragging the Milton family into this mess, are you trying to ruin us?"

"You..." Mrs. Milton raised her cane, ready to hit him!

Jackson handed her a card: "Mom, you’re getting older, don’t be so stubborn. I know you don’t like when Mary talks, but she’s my wife, you should at least try to understand me, your son."

Mrs. Milton gritted her teeth, her hand clenched in pain: "I’d rather not have you as my son."

"Mom, don’t say such hurtful things," Jackson supported her: "That Heart Herb of ours, didn’t the Jenkins family return it? Mom, listen to me, my company is in bad shape, could you give it to me?"

At this, Mrs. Milton’s chest rose and fell sharply: "I knew you’d come for the Heart Herb."

"Mom, you don’t want to see the Milton family coll

I'm enjoying the storyline! Some translation errors, Elijah is a "he, his or him", not "she or her"

    The fish were too fragile—what did it have to do with him? Mrs. Milton couldn’t understand either: “Why is it that every time you go to the market, all the living creatures there start acting up?” Elijah, holding a meat bun, looked up. Mrs. Milton was changing his clothes: “Forget it, it’s just a few buckets of fish.” Amelia raised an eyebrow and glanced at the crabs in the corner, foaming at the mouth: “Grandma, I think it’s more than just a few buckets of fish.” Mrs. Milton immediately felt a headache coming on. She pinched Elijah’s little arm: “You! Hurry up and hide! Don’t let your Grandma Wendy see you.” Where could he hide? Within just a few minutes, Grandma Wendy arrived at the door. "Elijah!" Grandma Wendy, chubby and with her hands on her hips, was a force to be reckoned with. Elijah almost stood up but was leisurely pressed back down by Amelia. Elijah gestured: What if she bullies Grandma? Amelia shot him a glance: “They’re just old friends bickering. No need to m

    The barrage of comments was scrolling too fast, and Amelia was still helping Grandma Victoria adjust the mic. Grandma Victoria asked, "What are they saying? Should I wear my glasses to read it?" Amelia smiled and said, "They're all supporting you." She then looked at the screen and continued, "Thanks to ‘No Failing’ for the gift. Don’t let your guard down just because you're feeling better. Thanks to all the friends who followed my channel. As usual, we’ll be doing a live consultation today, three people, free of charge." **[Sister’s So Pretty]**: "Did the host really bring her grandma here?" **[Big Spender]**: "Another setup. Boring!" **[Sentimental Guy]**: "Host: ‘The script is ready. Let’s see how well I can act real.’" **[Pikachu Cat]**: "If you think the host is acting, check out yesterday’s replay. A medical professor was here. Thanks." **[Big Spender]**: "Is this really hard? Professors show up if you pay them." Grandma Victoria understood: "Is this saying we’re faking

    The live stream chat exploded with excitement. Previously, Amelia was in third place for local popularity, but now her ranking had reached nationwide recognition. The room administrator couldn’t help but marvel at their foresight. Contentedly, they looked over the signing contract for "AngelHall" and confirmed their participation in the competition. Every year, the platform selects the top ten most popular streamers. Those in the top ten receive monetary rewards, ranging from one million to one hundred thousand, and they also get the chance to attend the annual event in the capital city. Seeing that Amelia wasn’t particularly interested in these accolades, the administrator decided to click through and vote for her in all of them. In their opinion, this newcomer had a good chance of making it into the top ten! Of course, she couldn’t compare to the big-name streamers, who had established fanbases. But Amelia's rapid rise in popularity meant she was bound to attract attention, esp

    Amelia’s fingers faltered for a moment, her gaze narrowing as she looked at the name “Jenkins?” **[What the heck! Saint Emperor!]** **[This streamer is awesome! The very next day, Saint Emperor is sending meteor showers! So envious!]** But it didn’t stop there. The system alert sounded again! **[Saint Emperor VIP Jenkins has sent two meteor showers in Harmony Clinic’s livestream, and 100 Star Rivers will be randomly dropped in the stream!]** **[I Love You: Oh my God! 100 Star Rivers!]** **[Night Eleven: One meteor shower costs 5,000. Three of them would be 15,000, right?]** **[Trying to Get Ashore: Shh, don’t speak, Mr. Jenkins is still sending!]** **[I Want to Be Single: Does pretty girl’s fan’s face hurt?]** In addition to providing substantial income for the streamer, meteor showers also gave the live stream a full-platform broadcast. This meant that anyone who entered the platform could see Harmony Clinic’s livestream! Moreover, the randomly dropped Star Rivers could tur

    Someone had just approached him, and his heart was trembling. He thought that the new streamer might have caused some trouble. In the end, it turned out that they were preparing to award a certificate.Now, looking at the new data in the backend, he was too shocked to speak. A new streamer, just two days into her broadcast, had received 200,000 in tips!The admin was about to faint from happiness.Who would have thought that the new streamer he was responsible for would be so calm?“Thank you, Mr. Jenkins , for the gifts,” Amelia’s gaze deepened slightly. “But you’ve sent too much. I don’t accept rewards without merit.”[Starry Eyes: The streamer is not enthusiastic enough.][Want to Be Single: The streamer always stays focused on her medical work.][bb: I can only say the streamer is amazing!]On a private plane, Carl sat with a cold

    "Mr. Lee?" The person speaking looked at him in confusion. Chris didn’t care about the influence these people had in LA. He grabbed one of them and asked, "It’s her. Do you know this streamer?" The person was stunned. "Mr. Lee, this is the business association. She’s just a small-time streamer..." "What do you know!" Chris didn’t say the rest of his thoughts aloud, but his irritation was clear. "Forget it, I’ll find her myself." ClearWater Alley, Harmony Clinic—he could follow the navigation to get there. This meeting, which was meant to attract foreign investment, had originally been set up for Chris’s benefit. Now that he wanted to leave, others were definitely going to be upset. "Mr. Lee, the meeting isn’t finished yet. You..." Remington, relying on his influence in the pharmaceutical field, added a few more words. "It&rsq

    "Mr. Lee, I’ve been waiting so long to see you..." Jackson stretched out his hand, eager to establish a connection. The bodyguards immediately blocked him: "Mr. Lee has important matters to attend to. Business talks will be tomorrow." "It’s not business!" Jackson struggled, trying to push forward. "It’s a personal matter, a personal matter!" The bodyguards hesitated for a moment. Then, Chris’s voice cut through: "Who’s blocking the way? Move them aside." Jackson knew that if he delayed Chris in finding the boss, he’d be the one held responsible! Seeing that his initial approach wasn’t working, Jackson shouted loudly, "Mr. Lee, why is Wilson Group cutting off cooperation with Milton's Group? There was no warning at all! What should I do about all the steel I’ve stockpiled!" The bodyguards had no patience for his shouting and immediately cov

    Meanwhile, on another livestream, things weren’t going as smoothly in pretty girl's stream. The viewers were relentless, urging MrBigbro to send another 50 meteor showers. 【Love pretty girl: MrBigbro, can you really put up with this?】 【Hope it's You: MrBigbro, keep it going!】 【Take a Look: MrBigbro can't be out of steam, right?】 MrBigbro, being an internal staff member of the platform, didn’t mind sending a few gifts, but he wasn’t foolish either. With a cigarette in his mouth, he typed, 【MrBigbro: Another 50 meteor showers? Is that what Sister pretty girl wants too?】 pretty girl, though unwilling, forced a smile and replied, “Of course not, MrBigbro. Just having you come to my live stream makes me so happy! You’ve always been so generous, and you’ve already sent so much today—MrBigbro, you’re truly amazing!” The small

    "Still, you should probably avoid talking about her and that man’s affair too much—it’s all about public perception.""Oh, I know," Carrie replied. "It’s just us chatting! Her PR team already released a statement denying everything, but the netizens aren’t buying it. Some media outlets are still camping outside the hospital, trying to confirm if she was really pregnant and got dumped. My friend has always marketed herself as pure and innocent—this scandal needs to be cleaned up ASAP!"She straightened up in her chair."If you can fix this, my friend will definitely send you a huge red envelope!"Mia hesitated for a moment, clearly tempted."No need for that," she finally said, pretending to be selfless. "I just know this has been stressing you out, so I want to help.""Mia, you’re the best!"Carrie blew several kisses into her phone."Be honest, Mia—do you read fortunes or something? Everything you say always comes true!"Mia smirked mysteriously."That’s not something I can discuss."

    "They'll probably try to smooth things over and get the Crawford family to spare her.""But over time, the Cromwell family will grow tired of this constant manipulation. That girl has no idea how miserable her end will be!"The people nearby nodded in agreement."At the very least, we have to acknowledge her abilities for now," one scholar remarked. "Saving Mr.Cromwell proves that her medical skills are indeed impressive."Mr. Crawford scoffed."It was just luck."What he truly coveted was the ancient acupuncture manual his student possessed.If he could get his hands on it, his status would be solidified.After all, when he observed Mia’s needling techniques, her movements were still unrefined.But now, obtaining the book seemed nearly impossible.The Crawford family might have already gotten to it first.Mr. Crawford narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.Meanwhile, Mia rushed back to school, her face pale as a sheet.She had called Uncle Crawford many times, but he never picked up.It

    In social circles, Mia had always maintained the image of an orphan—A narrative designed to highlight her talent.Even when Jackson came looking for her, she claimed he was just a distant cousin.And thanks to this daughter, Jackson managed to climb his way up to a small-time contractor.People’s impression of her was that she was simple, well-mannered, and somewhat pitiful.After all, for a young person new to New York, life wasn’t easy. Some of the older generation naturally wanted to lend her a hand.Who would have thought—she had the Crawford family backing her all along?But now, the Crawford family was clearly trying to distance themselves from the Adler family scandal, treating her like a discarded pawn.The scholars exchanged glances and subtly stepped away from her.Evelyn was still under investigation in LA.Once upon a time, Mr. Adler had been highly respected in New York’s medical circles—now, he wasn’t even allowed to leave his courtyard.And don’t think the storm has pa

    Today, if Mia’s reputation collapsed, the Crawford family would have a much harder time manipulating things behind the scenes.That was why Ernest stepped forward.He glanced at Secretary Frank, then at Amelia."Since things have come to this, why not show some mercy?" He spoke with a seemingly benevolent tone. "After all, you are in the medical field too. A true healer has a compassionate heart. Just because you saved Mr.Cromwell doesn’t mean you should completely cut off another doctor’s path."Amelia was sharp.Just by looking at his face, she could immediately match him to the information she had read.Seeing that the Crawford family couldn't resist jumping out, her eyes held a hint of amusement."I was wondering who had the power to whitewash Evelyn’s apprentice," she mused, "turns out it’s the Crawford family."One sentence—Ernest’s expression turned dark."Young lady, you should speak with evidence.""Mia’s mother’s surname is Crawford," Amelia said casually. "She’s already in

    Mr. Hart had never seen a young person with such a thick skin before.When he got home, he was definitely going to beat his grandson!What kind of friends was he making?!(Denis: Achoo! The weather dropped just like that. Guess it’s time to ask Grandpa for some money to buy a down jacket.)Denis had no idea that his so-called "fairy-like" Mia had just put on an entire tea ceremony performance for his grandfather in front of everyone.Given Mr. Hart’s status, it was beneath him to continue engaging with her.Pushing the issue further would be undignified.Mia had bet on this.Mr. Hart was a respected elder in the medical field, a man of scholarly integrity.In this situation, it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to argue with her.That’s why she played this card.But she miscalculated one thing—And that was Amelia.It didn’t matter what kind of tea tactics Mia tried—Amelia could spill the tea right back."So, according to you, you were 'forced' to become Evelyn’s apprentice?"

    After all, even with Mia’s impressive acupuncture skills, there were still illnesses she couldn’t treat.Sometimes, she even made mistakes.The only explanation Dave could come up with was that his old friend was exaggerating to help his disciple transfer schools.Thinking himself witty, he said, “Peter, you want to promote the younger generation, but you don’t have to go as far as giving her the credit.”"Give her credit? Secretary Frank is right here. Do you think I could just 'give' credit like that?"Mr. Hart remained upright and righteous as he turned to Mia, who was deliberately trying to lower her presence."Your student once apprenticed under Evelyn Adler. She should know exactly who saved Mr. Cromwell."Mr. Hart had never intended to put a junior on the spot.That’s why, when he first saw Mia, he had said nothing.But every single word she spoke was aimed at stepping on Amelia, belittling her as if she was worthless.He could no longer tolerate it."Amelia had the highest lev

    "Secretary Frank, it’s really been a long time! The last time we met was in Mr. Cromwell’s office."Dave’s attempt to curry favor was blatantly obvious.But Secretary Frank didn’t extend his hand, only giving him a brief glance.Dave didn’t mind the cold attitude, instead eagerly trying to find a topic of conversation. "So, what brings you here?""I’m here to pick up Peter." After deciphering Amelia’s silent cue, Secretary Frank ignored the old scholar and walked straight to Mr. Hart. "Peter, Mr. Cromwell knew you were meeting an old friend today, so he specifically instructed me not to show up too early. He wanted you to finish your business first before bringing you to the Cromwell estate. Ever since parting ways in LA, Mr. Cromwell has been thinking about you."The moment these words fell—The entire room went dead silent.Secretary Frank’s demeanor was like an invisible slap, landing hard on their faces.Dave visibly stiffened.Those who had been loudly accusing Amelia and Mr. Har

    "Time really spares no one, huh? Even the rule-abiding Peter finds himself in a difficult spot now."The elderly scholar patted Mr. Hart on the shoulder."Peter, we’re both getting on in years. My memory isn’t what it used to be—I completely forgot we had an appointment. And honestly, this isn’t the right place to discuss your junior’s school transfer.""Transfer?" Mia feigned surprise. "Mr. Hart, Sister’s grades wouldn’t allow for a transfer, would they? Hasn’t she always studied at your vocational school?"As soon as she said this, many scholars turned to look their way.The elderly scholar made no move to stop her.Mr. Hart instantly understood what was happening, and his heart sank.Before coming here, he had reassured Amelia that everything would be fine.But now, even an old friend had become unrecognizable.Amelia, ever perceptive, knew that anything Mr. Hart said now would only invite further ridicule. She spoke up herself:"Mr. Hart, out of old friendship, you turned down an

    At the Special Cases Meeting—Several investigators were reviewing Rowan on the screen."Boss sent this guy?""Yeah, Boss said he’s special and could help with the case.""When is Boss coming back?""After stabilizing their studies.""Their studies? You’re joking, right? What does Boss need school for?""Don’t believe me? See for yourself."The room fell into silence as everyone stared at the chat logs.What kind of force could actually make their Boss go to school?No need to ask—the answer was social obligations.Meanwhile, Amelia had been waiting at the bookstore near the school with Mr. Hart.Their appointment was for 2 PM. It was already 4 PM, yet the other party still hadn’t shown up.Mr. Hart had finished his tea and was about to send a follow-up message when a group of scholarly-looking individuals entered.One elderly man at the front chuckled, "I must say, I’m very pleased with my student.
